Real Madrid (old thread)

The problem Estel is always the CL not the league ...
we can't take risks , it's our holy grail .. Higuain will be fine by the time of the next classico the problem remains in February CL tie and lack of subs for that position .
Don't think we will consider another Brazilian for some time

Kevin that's awesome , it's much better than the official version

Maybe you know: what's up with Khedira and Özil? After all those months, they seem totally helpless in Spanish .. It's like watching a Hleb that can play football.

Lol Gio... You just summed up La Liga title race as the two classicos!!

 

[Beast]

Well they will get better in time , remember from German to Spanish is quite a gap compared to other languages like Portuguese or French

Lol Gio... You just summed up La Liga title race as the two classicos!!

No i'm saying we can get by in most of the games without Higuain with hard work , we need him for the important games .
Classico and CL

Anyway if things go worse CR7 is himself not that bad a striker and Pedro Leon is not a bad replacement for him on the right wing too

 

[Beast]

CR IMO is a very bad striker.. he needs team to be playing with such a high line to be able to produce .
He needs space and standing with defenders behind him would nullify any threat from him.

he either play on the wing or behind the striker but alone upfront can only work in some games vs some teams

Except even Mou has said that CR isn't a striker

Milito is not a good all around striker but he is actually the only classic number nine in Europe rightnow,he doesnt have the Speed of Villa nor the Strength of Drogba nor the Brilliance of Ibrahimovic,he only depend on his positioning and his tactical awareness,and thats why he was one of Mourinho's keys in the treble,Milito is not creative takes his instructions from his manager and when your manager is Jose Mourinho,those instructions can make you one of the best strikers in Europe,the way Mourinho always used him behind the weaker fullback of the opponent was impressing
Madrid dont need him though and Kaka is not leaving so the reported Kaka-Milito swap makes no sense,Kaka needs Madrid and Florentino wont sell Kaka and lose the bet only because of an average season,even if Kaka leaves MAdrid,then I can see him moving to Chelsea rather than Inter,as I have said before,Madrid either needs a young striker who will be willing to sit on bench and learn(AKA Romelu Lukaku) or a loan move to help Benzema and see whether he develops or not in the abscence of Higs,I dont know why Madrid didnt go for Hugo Almeida,I think he could have been good in the current team,why I have a feeling that Madrid will sign Bendnter on loan this jan?

Except for the fact that Milito has been fantastic everywhere he has played with or without Mourinho, meaning you entire post is inaccurate.

Milito is great at holding the ball up and he is one of the very few strikers who can score behind or in front of a striker inside the box.

I was only talking about the worst case scenario... Touche Gio, he does need lot of space

Inter fans are almost beside themselves for not cashing in on the player this past summer...A good number think he's hit the proverbial wall

Thing about Diego, however, is that you can never really count him out, IMO...Still, he's not exactly an in form player atm

 

[Beast]

Keeping Milito in the team IMO was a good step cause you won't get enough money to replace him and you won't find anyone like him.
I just saw Mido post and i have to disagree with almost everything , Diego can hold the ball quite well and deadly all around striker
his goals never stopped through out his career so he don't need Jose or anyone else , he tortured Iker & VV plenty of times with Zaragoza and was immense with Genoa .
the main problem was the fat waiter when you look @ consistent players like Milito and Maicon and their form u have to point towards him it's not just about their desire to move to Real especially when they both contributed to a much cherished treble
And Mido man give me a break i'd rather keep Benzema than see Hugo Almeida wear our shirt

 

[Raed]

No team in the world ever decides to sell their star player after an immense win. That is simply suicide. If a player decides not to show up any longer then that is a risk proper management has to take, but to throw away your key to success is leaving you with 0% chance of retaining the title. You can't also be a push over and sell your star players because someone else tapped them up or their favorite manager sought a new challenge.

Milito will come back, one last time when the team is properly organized.

 

[El Gato]

How about loaning Negredo ? I know he isn't that good, but we're desperate for another striker.

 

[Beast]

Cup tied Wolfe, Negredo played with Seville in the CL
though i can't remember if the 4th round thing apply to the rule

 

[Trequartista]

-milito is wont be in a top 15 all around strikers,he is a goal machine,you give him the ball and he scores,deadly one on ones,awesome in his positioning,you can always build your tactics upon him but he lacks pace,smartness(compared to other strikers) and he is technically limited,as I have there will be always at least 10 more complete strikers in europe than him,mourinho made him the best cf in the cl bec he knew how to use him,the way wesley always found milito in inter's counters and the diversity of his positioning in every single game last year,one time moving behind a fullback,another time stucking with a cb proved that mourinho found the best player to use in his tactics,milito's brilliance was a product of mou's tactics and that doesnt deny milito's talent at all -as for the almeida debate,the problem is that you need a 3rd choice or a 2nd one to be ready for some bench role when higs returns and be ready for a still possible explosion from benzema,almeida has another profile than your strikers and he has been brilliant for werder this season,and was available for 2m,if benzema steps up then you have a 3rd choice striker,if no sell benzema in the summer and buy a quality cf this time,even if almeida fails you an sell him for 3m+ to any bundesliga side
