Real Madrid (old thread)

Signing both Ribéry & Silva would be ridiculous. Even for you lot.

it's not THAT ridiculous if you consider 2 things...

1) both players tend to get injured a lot and for quite some time at that.
2) david silva plays a lot behind the strikers since mata has the role as left winger. and he's pretty good. kaká, VDV & guti are now, david silva & canales may very well be the future for real in that departement.

not really afraid of ribery/silva at madrid. Ribery is way too overrated. Silva ...
Haha Madrid

 

[Beast]

Signing both Ribery & Silva belong to FM & SM games not in real life so yes Nando it is ridiculous to even consider that possibility ...

 

[Hamzah]

I think Ribery or Mata are good options for you lot but you can't have unlimited cash you've already spent over 200 million.

The Ruud transfer to Hamburg is done between the clubs , all pending on Ruud passing the medical exam tomorrow morning and the condition of his damaged knee

 

[Zqa-]

He still got a knee?

 

[Beast]

That's what the Hamburg medical team will see (or try to find )

 

[Zqa-]

Yeah.

 

[Gnegneri]

Mata

Would this kid ever go back to Real actually?

 

[Hamzah]

Yes.

to be fair, you said the very same thing (FM not real life, ridiculous to think it will be more than 4/5 players) to me last year, when we were discussing pérez' & valdanos plans to sign granero, negredo, arbeloa, xabi alonso, david villa, r. albiol, garay, cristiano & kaká. now, besides david villa, who got replaced (very poorly) by benzema and the loan of negredo, they did sign all 9 players (8 if you count out negredo).

i'll wait and see what plans these 2 have in mind for this years summer. if anything can be said about last years discusion and the summer, it's that with pérez & valdano at madrid, FM and real life have come a lot closer.

First no it was the same exact targets you claimed now , you kept banging all summer about Ribery + Silva + the other super stars not the Granero & co ..Garay wasn't bought by Valdano as well
the additional players replaced existing star players..(Robben & Sneijder who everyone including the manager excluded ) at the end we actually bought 6 players ..
Albiol,Arbeloa,Xabi,Kaka,CR & Benzema ..
Granero & Garay were our own it was a case of return loan and activate peanuts buy back (same for Negredo who we sold for 3 times his value to Seville )

now you old summer suggestion of buying 2 LM /AM starters will replace who exactly ?those 150 + Million Euro players ? or we will play
-----------------------Xabi---------------------
CR---------Kaka------------Silva---------Ribery
-----------------------Higuain-----------------

just to get our asses handed to us week in week out ?

The team need an LM to switch with Marcelo not 2 super stars who will want to play every week !!!!

some sense Nando , Perez said he spent the budget of 3 seasons so expect more Canales and less CR's

he will take an LM when a great chance arise or money is recaped from player sales (like Gago & Diarra )

Ruud has passed the medical and the deal will be concluded tomorrow :sad:

best of luck Ruud , thank you for all the goals , professionalism and service .. you will always be remembered by Madridistas .

I'll be following the new duet of Marcus Berg & Ruud closely
