Arbeloa? I guess he's a Madrid product so that would come in handy for the CL team registration. Is Metzelder leaving? You should be getting Garay back from loan so I guess he'll be a decent backup for CB, or maybe play him as a DM beside Ruben, he's a good free kicker and that could be handy in certain situations.
Ramos brainfarts to often to be CB, Arbeloa isn't good enough. Pepe is quite good though. Isn't good enoug at all. But awright. I dont mind tbh.
I hope Marcelo gets a chance too, would be good. Miguel Torres could play RB too, he seemed quite a good player 2 years ago, what's the deal with him now?
Zidane claims Madrid are closer to signing Ribery. So how much will it be now? 94m + 67m + 55m(roughly that) = 216m euro on 3 guys. Lucky for Madrid when it comes to La Liga it seems domination by a team lasts no longer than 2 years, so if Madrid don't win anything next season they are sure to win the season after, in which Barcelona will be in a crisis cause they didn't win La Liga. I don't think any league has a top 2 that is associated with the word 'crisis' as much as in La Liga with Madrid and Barca.
I think if Madrid make it past the round of 16 in the CL they will have made a good step forward in their plans.
It's probably become a psychological thing within the team. Once they get past the round of 16 they'll probably do it every year from then on.
LOL, Benzema! Beast's favourite player!! And Benzema had a quiet season to boot, even better.
