Real Madrid (old thread)

[Poor_Sunyol]

We won't screw him he'll be sold in the summer.

 

[El Gato]

Yeah, you won't screw him, he will screw you.

 

[Beast]

So you will be screwed ?

Wolfe regarding Pepe

The player began by asking six million a year, then lowered his claim to five and the last counteroffer was four. Madrid was adamant to offer 3.5. However, the deal was closed for about 3.8 million and signed a contract until 2015 (the current contract ends in 2012).

That's from AS , funny enough Pepe salary was 1.8 a year

 

[Poor_Sunyol]

Yeah, you won't screw him, he will screw you.

€50 mil isn't being screwed. He wants money (like all Brazilian's) we won't give it to him, so we sell him. Nobody gets screwed (apart from City!)

 

[El Gato]

Oh he will screw you, Barca will give him the money he wants, because they know that you do not yet have any good replacement prospects and there isn't an RB who could join you, fit in and start kickin ass in partnership with Messi.

I'm already afraid of the salary Marcelo will ask for in the future.

 

[Poor_Sunyol]

You mean like Yaya 'screwed' us?

 

[Sergio]

Marcelo is being shipped out anyway isn't he?

 

[AnfieldEd]

Why would Real want to get rid of Marcelo? if they are stupid enough to let go of Marcelo, Milan should snap him up.

Marcelo is being shipped out anyway isn't he?

Ain't going nowhere... fan favourite

You mean like Yaya 'screwed' us?

Yaya was a sub.. Alves is a fulcrum

 

[Sergio]

Since when has being a fan favourite meant anything to who stays and goes?

Since day one in Real
unless you are over the hill (age wise ) .. fan favourites stay ...

Unlike other clubs we are owned by the fans not an individual , so fan opinions matter

 

[Sergio]

Is that why Perez relentlessly peddled for the sale of Higuaín until even he had to concede Benzema was hopeless.

 

[Beast]

And he couldn't sell him
proved my point...

 

[Sergio]

Because you had no other striker in the team who was upto it, and no more money left to get a new one (stuck with Benzema), not because he didn't want/changed his mind.

He even had Marca running a hate campaign against Higuaín for a year.

 

[Beast]

Nope Sergio , Perez tried to sell higuain last year when we had Raul and Ruud plus Benzema and he had the money (which we saw spent on Ozil,Khdeira,Leon,Ricardo and Di Maria )

fan polls said no , Perez couldn't do anything
our fans dictate it not like other clubs in Europe (with the exception of Barca ) ... that's the brilliance of being a club owned by a fan not a megalomaniac individual
