Sami Khedira

[el tren]

There are rumors he made a precontract with Bayern a few months ago. Would actually make sense, as i expected him to take over for van Bommel (last year of contract) next season anyway.

 

[Beast]

Yep it's mentioned also in the Spanish press as the reason for the delay in agreement with him .
his agent wants 7 million euro gross salary for Sami based on this pre-contract (which is effective when Sami contract runs out next summer not this summer ) , we refused based on the fact that Bayern M offer was based on a signing on fee as they will pay zero for Stuttgart

 

[el tren]

Ye, that precontract makes a lot of sense for Bayern, so it likely exists. Real is also said to not intervene (anymore) with Bayern here in order to not risk the good relationship between the two clubs. Is that believable?

 

[Beast]

After Ribery ? i doubt it
unless we are having a deal with one of Bayern players (? ) for example if there is a deal in the pipeline for Schwini or Muller than i would definitely believe that we would drop the whole thing , in fact if that's the case i would say the whole Sami thing from day one was to to have a leverage over Bayern in negotiations

 

[el tren]

Well, i guess we will find out soon. Losing Khedira to RM would mean a massive blow for my fantasy football team, thats why i am so concerned

Sami Khedira from Stuttgart to Real Madrid

A very good addition but still,I cant see him playing with Alonso in a 4-2-3-1 formation.

 

[el tren]

He plays in the same formation aside with Schweinsteiger for the german NT, which really works out as he has a high work rate. Why shouldnt he be able to play alongside Alonso?

Why? I think they will play 4-2-3-1. Alonso and Khedira should be fine with holding midfielder positions.

No Destroyer,Who will play in a more deeper role?r,It Would help them agaisnt weaker teams,If Kaka also plays as an advanced midfielder,I think they will struggle against stronger teams but still Khedira remaisn a very good player.

 

[Moe]

well Schwini is certainly more explosive than Xabi, he's more unpredictable and can give his team other options, unlike Xabi. still I have no doubt Xabi/Khedira partnership will work.

 

[Robbie]

He`s definitely a Mourinho-type player. If he can work hard and listen to his tactical instructions, he`ll be incredibly effective.

 

[El Gato]

Had one of the best games as an RM player on Saturday. Very good composure, didn't get nailed on by Iniesta like he used to do and played the ball calmly. And making Puyol look like a fool nutmegging him in a match that decided the fate of the championship? Almost adding insult to injury.

Hopefully he'll keep that up today. Bayern will be on their toes and concentrating not to make any mistake. They need a perfect match, no mistakes allowed.

 

[Raed]

If this guy scores one more in the Champions League it is worth considering putting up a statue for him. This is coming from his number one non-fan.

 

[Daemul]

Raed, calm down man, let's not get overexcited here.
