You are nothing like Milan, we have a chance of winning something, you don't

And don't take my word for it, take Florentino's own statements on his "great" financial plan this summer:

"Perez acknowledged this in an oblique way, “We’re going through a delicate moment with the world financial crisis, but we had to make a big effort for the arrival of new players--which explains the debt.”

Ah, yes – the debt. It’s certainly true that the debt “ballooned” (to use Real’s own word) last year to finance the player acquisitions, but it’s by no means the only element of Real’s strategy. “We believe we can improve our accounts by aiming for three goals – increasing ticket sales, increasing bank loans and increasing the club’s economic value” Perez later stated."

3 months later Banco Santander announced that under no circumstances will it be extending Real Madrid's loan until it re-payed a significent part of its existing debts, something it failed to do after winning nothing, and again are 99% sure not to win anything again.

Dream is over.

Yeah, because I must be an idiot if I think it is not a good way to reduce ones debt by taking on more bank loans (which the bank won't even give Madrid now anyway) :wacko:

Really what its like is Florentino took a gamble that if he staked on big players like Cron, Kaka', Benzema etc, he could pay for them by the trophies they would win. Of course 2 years on we all know they haven't won anything, and thus the gamble failed. And like at the casino, there is no double or quits, you get chucked to the street on your ass.

TBF they have a very good chance to win silverware this season.

I think that they have more than 50% chance of winning the copa this season... more because they would be considered the underdogs for the clash and Mou would strive for such situations because he could actually park the bus in such fixtures!!


And they have good possibility for Cl also, though I think that they have not done great in big matches this season... but can never say never!!

Real Madrid are like the xBox of the football world. You play an awesome game and then you get the red ring of death.
