Davide Santon

Hi. To those who follow, how is Davide Santon doing in EPL? I dont know if this right section to ask but is he good enough to start for Madrid? We need a RB next season and there are not many options in the market.
Thanks.

Somebody(mole) told me that he was the new Maldini

Then I don't think he is living living upto the hype. How is he compared to someone like Walker?

What I've seen of Santon he's been very good going forward. Can dribble and find clever passes. I suppose he's defending capabilites cannot be too poor either, considering Newcastle's usually solid defensive displays.

Lol that shit aint funny anymore....... as i never said that all i said is iam seeing why he was hyped.

Anyway going forward he's a fantastic dribbler, excellent passer of the ball.....

Sometimes when it gets into the box he seems to be afraid of shooting but its a minor knit pick.

Defensively he's great too..... has a knack of making some amazing interceptions and apart from an awful 45 mins against Arsenal he has dealt with his 1 v 1's very well too.....

When he first arrived he was probably positionally a bit suspect but over the last few months he has improved on that tenfold atleast.

He has played mainly LB for us.

If his improvement continues i have no doubt come this time next year we will be talking about one of the best fullbacks in the league.

BTW i find it funny all these threads about Madrid and Newcastle players.

Would you like to know about Tiote, Cabaye, Coloccini and Krul too?

to be frank we are looking for
a casillas back up (krul)
4th choice CB (coloccini)
DM (Tiote)
kaka replacement (cabaye)
RB (santon)
higuain replacement (Cisse)

lets raid Newcastle

If he were to come to Madrid he would just sit on the bench so it's best he stay at Newcastle.

We will be back in a few years

best of it all they all dream to play for us

What happened to Alex, Jesse, Moratta, some other defenders you guys were raving about?

Remember, we are not like Barcelona, we dont promote players we just buy them.

I hope Madrid continues with Mourinho and does not replace him.
