Real Madrid (old thread)

[Beast]

whatever makes you feel better about signing a 34 year old crock.

Ruud is crock...
he is so bad they recalled him in the Dutch team

Markus Berg? I suppose you did not follow his first time for Hamburg, even RvN with only one leg could score more goals, regarding Guerrero he is more out due to suspension or injury. I really can not understand why they would do this. They would solve Madrids problem just to be left with the same problem and furthermore underline their reputation as one of the most ridiculous clubs in the whole BL

Regarding stadium attendencies, seems you do not know anything about the german TV programme

I know Berg flopped in his first season but he probably needed time to adapt .. you don't lose you scoring powers just for the sake of it .
i think it's down to adaptation, i quite liked him in the under 21 Euro championship .. i think you need to give him more time the kid has it

regarding stadium attendance in the German league , they are the second highest in Europe man what the hell are you talking about ?
or are you talking about that suggestion i read a while ago to collect money from TV owners vs games broadcast rights ? i once read something like that from the German correspondent in ESPN Uli

No it was acctually a try for a joke by saying our TV programme is so shit to people are escaping to the stadium.

Regarding Berg, it is funny because I also had high hopes on him after the European U 21 that I was really happy when HSV signed him, but he is complete "useless". It is always the same with HSV: they talk big, have gib goals (to get a place for the CL or at least the EL) and now that, how do they want to get a place for international football without a striker?

Panic buy is when you just go on and buy players just for the sake of buying.
Ruud was selected as an emergency solution to the shortage of strikers , a player who will take zero time to adapt , know the team , the club , proven goalscorer in Europe and la liga , very suitable for 4-2-3-1 as a lone striker and above all cause no threats to the long term established players like Higuain.
Jose said Benzema lacks hunger to score , for such player it's very dangerous to leave him all alone guaranteeing he plays week in week out even if he don't perform .
needless to say all of you informed gentleman knew jose called for another striker since pre-season and warned about the danger if one of the two strikers fell down to injury and that's what happened.
the only panic here are those who are having panic attacks from the deal and Sergio cause his team sucks and wants to divert attention and say hi to Cassano your own panic buy

Well for a start Cassano is coming in after we essentially lost Pippo for good, so had a position free, its not a panic, its a replacement - and with how he has started at Milan, you would need to be pretty silly to ridicule the move.

Now the reason you are signing Ruud is not the same, its because Benzema is shit, not injured, but shit. So its a panic buy as your transfer policy has blow up in your face spectacularly - yet again.

And he is crocked.

 

[Pepe Silvia]

Good. More forwards for Pique to man handle.

 

[Peerd]

Ruud is crock...

He's still class.... but don't forget it's just as a pinch hitter and because Van Marwijk doesn't want to rush talents like Van Wolfswinkel.

A hamburg sympathiser could say the exact same words regarding Benzema... Only replace the U21 with Lyon, a European giant!!

Lol... and since when does Cassano play the same position like Pippo
so losing Higuain for a year is ok but losing Pippo for 4 month is not ok ..right ?
replacing our main man was a pro guaranteed finisher is bad but replacing Pippo was a troubled child Cassano is fine
and a Milanista talking about transfers ? Hi Emerson , Yepes , Sokratis and co
try to make better excuse , and yeah one striker is more than enough for a football team ..
Scotland has clearly affected your usual excuses talent

No it was acctually a try for a joke by saying our TV programme is so shit to people are escaping to the stadium.

Since i don't speak Deutsh i'll take your word for it however it has everything to do with the habits of the country than just a football show
Petric is back from injury and scored today.. things should be easier from now

A hamburg sympathiser could say the exact same words regarding Benzema... Only replace the U21 with Lyon, a European giant!!

the difference is that they shipped Berg the following season , we gave Benzema his second season
not just that , he is currently the only striker and still his league goals go back to Jornada 4 vs Espanyol that's September 21st Estel
18 games with 1 game and 3 assist .
that's worse than Berg who was a sub fighting with Ruud,Petric,Guerrero ...not a starter for the past 2 month with no sub for him

He's still class.... but don't forget it's just as a pinch hitter and because Van Marwijk doesn't want to rush talents like Van Wolfswinkel.

and we just need that..
a finisher standing in the box finishing the moves for 6 month maximum a year till Higuain return.
someone who won't take time to adapt
know the city , the team , the players, the language
won't be an obstacle to be replaced in a year.
that's Ruud , he is the perfect man for a job
only idiots who don't watch him would say he is finished ..

 

[Sergio]

Eh, Milan play 3 strikers, you play 1, we lost one effectively for good, and sold Ronaldinho. You have one down with injury, but then when you have a player who you spent 30M+ to replace him, you would think you would be fine. But your not, your transfers have yet again proved to be a disaster, and you are panic buying for a crocked piece of sentimentality.

And yeah, as a Milanista I am talking about transfers, as we are boss at them; Ibrahimovic - haven't paid a penny for yet, and when we do its less than half what Barca effectively paid for him last season. Robinho, half the cost of what his previous club paid. Cassano - 2.5M. Prince - paid for by another club. Yepes - free. Papa - installed payment. Yeah, what a mess we are in, that Galliani should have a word with Perez and Valdano about such great moves like 60M for Kaka' (finished) and 30M Benzema (never even started let alone can finish). Not to mention promoting 2 promising youth players, another alien concept to Madrid.

 

[Beast]

So you having Pato-Ibra -Robinho who all can play in Cassano position is not a panic buy ?
@ insisting Cassano is a striker
Genius we have one striker.. that's why we are in the market , you don't have that problem you are just trying to have more forwards
for every Benzema you have 5 wasted transfer.. so yeah you really should keep quiet
talking about youth how many of your starting 11 are from your own youth ? even Abate spent his entire youth in all over Italia not in Milan
yeah the concept of youth is an alien concept but not for Real , for Milan

 

[Sergio]

You have 2 players for 1 position, we had 4 players for 3 positions, surely you see why Milan have the capacity for another forward - simple ratios there, while you have an admittance that you fucked up big time (yet again) in jizzing all that money on Benzema?

 

[Beast]

that's like playing Seedorf in Robinho position cause once upon a time he played as a winger...

We have Benzema as a striker.. CR is a winger not a striker
So use your simple ratios there ...
Benzema is fucked up.. but for Benzema we have Ozil,Di Maria, CR...etc
for you it's a simple for every good player you have a fucked up transfer..

 

[FCBarca]

Lost in this potential move for Ruud is the fact that he's been a bit immature in his actions with his club, Hamburg...He was described as lethargic in his play tonight against Frankfurt despite reports he was 'about to be signed by RM'

Hamburg director of sport Bastian Reinhardt denied the 34-year-old striker was leaving the club after the match:


"Spanish newspapers write what they want," he told Sky after the game. "Our position has not changed."

And scored for them the winner *and their only goal * last game and after Real interest Michael , be fair
his contract already runs out in the summer and it's not like Hamburg was trying to renew him .. they want to use him till Petric/Guerrero are back
Veh said anything can happen after the game as well

 

[Sergio]

Clearly, by the fact that the only 3 players you could think to mention - one of which isn't even at the club (irrelevant much?) - were actually free. Yeah, disaster transfer policy there eh? Milan have actually made a profit on transfers in the last few years, and actually increased the size and competitiveness of the squad. But like I always try and tell you, responding to criticism of your club by slinging inaccurate nonsense about a club that isn't even in the same federation as you, really makes your defense of Madrid look very weak.

Fact is, your club spent 100's of millions on players in less than 2 years, as much as your already generous overdraft would allow. And you failed, if anything Barca are even further away from you in competitiveness, and now you have nowhere else to turn, no more transfers you can throw on the American Express and pay for later. And we can see this in the fact that you are having to bully the mighty Hamburg to give you a 34 year old has been on the cheap. My how the might have fallen.

Enjoy Benzema and Kaka' though, transfer guru. Hope you pull off some more great deals like selling Wes, who makes the highlight of his clubs season winning a treble, while the highlight of yours was getting beaten 4-0 by Alcor-fucking-nobody.
