What exactly do you want updated on ?Good going by Perez decreasing the debt by 82 Mil .. ironically winning a trophy would have cost us around 30 Mil
Was away for some time so Wolfe can u update me ? i saw France game and if Benzema played the same way this season Higuain will have big issues snatching a starting place .
he was totally amazing and MOM .. and against a tough Bosnia in Sarajevo he was pretty impressive
French are floppers which they showed against Belarus and Benzema being probably the only over the average player does not really increase his chances at the club especially, because of nice goal of Higuain against Spain. Mourinho said it himself during the latest conference about Ronaldo being a starter against Osa that he is glad that Benzema does not accept himself being 2nd forward after Higuain and he's glad that he's fighting for his spot, also delivering for national team.
Pepe and Ronaldo are likely to return to the first team on Sunday which is certainly a good thing. Don't know about Lass, but earlier in the week there was info that he started training with the ball again so that whole Mallorca injury thing could be a Mourinho smokescreen to prevent them from getting even more fatigued. Hopefully we'll see Ramos and maybe even Pedro Leon on the right side so that we can actually start to deliver from the wings.
I only hope that he gives up Canales as a first team option. This is not what the first team needs right now. Also, Mou didn't select Momo to the squad.

Out of morbid interest, what is Reals current financial position?

Fucked but they won't admit it and always fudge the figures.

Financial position probably couldn't be better for this moment. Decreasing net debt by a quarter over a year is heck of an achievement taking into account all of these transfers. Perez knows how to make make money, but antimadridistas won't admit it
Also, Marca has reported their version of first 11 for today:
Casillas; Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Carvalho, Marcelo; Khedira, Xabi Alonso; Özil, Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and Higuaín.
4-3-3 with Ronaldo, Benzema and Higuaín upfront. Interesting, yet unlikely IMO.

4 of them speak Portuguese as their mother tongue, add Jose and and you start to wonder what the official language is in the capital??
Javi is a Basque.

Marca's predicted lineups are good as anybody else's who watches La Liga. Devout Madrid fans here make better predictions regarding their club's first 11.
Still, indications are here that Madrid strayed from Perez path of "more Spaniards" even with Canales and Leon signings.

With Albiol injured and Canales still growing it will take some time Bojan .. Jose has shown some balls selling established names and putting Cantera players like Mateos in the 25 squad
u can't make a change overnight and not on this level .. however Jose already proved the initial doom merchants wrong who predicted him to buy 30 + year old players.. only Caravalho (who wasn't even first choice ) fit this criteria .. all the rest are young players for the future ..
I said he is not worth all the hype a 15 Mil price tag tops and i still stand by my estimation and i think he proved me right last season and it had nothing to do with his link to barca.. u didn't see me change my stance last season
he is improving based on the only game i watched in the last two weeks
i was away i needed a sum up for the club affairs lately
flopper as in two times Euro cup winners and one WC and another final ? right..
he is improving and i want to see the Jose affect on him .. he was really good last game and vs Mallorca when he played he was good with Higuain
yep that's the same number of Spanish/Catalan players Barca fielded against Real Madrid in CL semi final.. oh wait.. Madrid had 7 Spaniards in their line up ..
so much for the Cantera policy eh ? if it wasn't for the fact that you almost went bankrupt we would probably see more players from the outside than Cantera
Don't get dragged in this Wolfe.. they are wind up merchants and your taking the bait nicely..

yep .. not until Laporta took over and u started offloading players due to your amount of debt we started seeing your "cantera " .. granted it worked really well but it's not like u've been an advocate of Cantera from day 1 and that's my point .
early 90's non EU were limited.. when the door opened you were buying like there is no tomorrow and you would've probably continued to do so if u still had money
2005 Eto'o, Giuly,Dinho,Deco,VB,Edmilson,Marquez,Sylvinho/Gio
as i said it's all recent

Floppers for now. They are supposed to have a good coach who dragged Bordeaux into semis in CL, but now he somehow can't get it done against Belarus and if it wasn't for Benzy's individual effort France would be in the same situation as Portugal.
But I agree, I want to see his true potential come out of him and I hope Mourinho is the man to get it out of him.
And probably yes, I do get dragged into it too much
