Guti set to join Raul at Schalke 04

The veteran midfielder is a free agent after leaving Besiktas in 2011, and is on the verge of signing a contract in Germany and linking up with his former Madrid team-mate

Guti is a legend! He's the best metrosexual to have been at Madrid. :bow:

He started the trend. Cristina and Sergio are just pretenders.

I just posted that in the transfer thread. So far it is mainly rumours, though. The German article made it look more vague than the English language one, BTW.

imagine if he joins tho

i havent seen him much in turkey but hopefully he still has his through balls and skills left, would love to see him feature with Raul

although he would be quickly hated by their fans and coach because of his arrogance and laziness

Well, Horst Heldt says now the transfer rumours about Guti are just made up:

Works fine with my 3 comps, I don't think size has anything to do with it.

its works when scrolling up but then takes ages when scrolling down

a smaller version obviously wouldnt do that

Bundesliga :bow:

by Lord Hades Tue Jan 24, 2012 12:26 pm

any league and any team with raul and guti = G.O.A.T

by halamadrid2 Tue Jan 24, 2012 12:27 pm

it was a response to your comment of bowing down to bundesliga because of Guti (who is a 35 year old player) lol... was just kidding tho

btw heard that Schalke has one of the youngest teams there, guess Rauls age didnt disrupt that lmfao

by rwo power Tue Jan 24, 2012 12:41 pm

Well, Guti won't come. Heldt said so already.

As for youngsters - yeah, the three goals this weekend against Stuttgart were scored by Draxler (18), Matip (20) and Papadopolous (19). Their goalie Unnerstall is only 21, too.

what if heldt is trolling us

by rwo power Tue Jan 24, 2012 12:44 pm

I severely doubt that Heldt is trolling. If Schalke keep Raúl, they'll have to offer him a substantial salary, and so they won't hire an oldie who'd likely demand not the lowest wages either, even for 6 months.

what if sir vladimir putin is giving them money from under the table

by rwo power Tue Jan 24, 2012 1:07 pm

You really think Putin would throw away money like that? Somehow I doubt that Guti would be a favourite of his. Then I'd more suspect he'd give them money to sign some Russian player. ^^

Senor Penguain, sir, you've got your facts all messed up. Guti isn't a metrosexual, he is a pimp. Check your sources dude Wink
