Yeah his assists would definately be good, don't know how many he's had though. And I'm not even taking Ronaldo's season into consideration, he's not a winger, he's more a forward than anything if you ask me. Maybe 7 - 10 goals is steep, but usually a decent goal return from wingers would be at least 5 - 8, even decent wingers in lesser teams get around 5 a season. In Real Madrid he could get a better return, depends on if he plays more as a creator or tries to get more goals.Do you know what his rate of creating chances are, or his assists? I bet it's quite decent. Afterall, Ronaldo has set the bar quite high for wingers with is 40+ goal season from the wings.
Well Aulas said he's not selling Benzema, which means HUGE offer or nothing. Better off looking elsewhere.
Meanwhile David Whelan claims that Madrid may still be in the running for Valencia?
Yeah, and it's always for a ridiculous price, which is why I said Madrid shouldn't bother. I reckon Huntelaar could be a good choice for Madrid this season, he's a great finisher and he'll have more than enough chances to score from the guys he'd have playing behind him.Aulas says everybody isn't for sale and keeps on saying it right up until the moment when he sells them.
Where did you read about the 24m + Huntelaar offer? Spanish papers? That's a fucking good deal for Lyon. If you did get Benzema all you could do is hope he'll flourish, cause at the end of the day he definately has a good enough support cast to put chances on a plate for him... That said, Huntelaar would flourish with Ribery/Kaka/Cron behind him, chances galore, goals galore.
The problem with all this is what will happen to Higuain? He had a brilliant season, but he surely won't be picked over whoever Madrid buy as their big name striker, and as far as I know Higuain isn't an out-and-out striker so he may not be ideal as the lone striker up top, though he did score enough goals for a good striker.
you can have Benzema and leave us VillaStay away from our Villa! You can have Benzema.
Valencia would be a poor mans Ribery. He needs to work on getting more goals though, he has a terrible goal return, you'd expect a good winger to get at least 7 - 10 goals a season(in all competitions), Valencia has like 7 goals in 84 league games for Wigan.

I think David Whelan is a bit confused about reports of real madrid talking with Valencia about a transfer.
Cesc flirting with Madrid again.
I'm beginning to despise that guy.
