Transfer Rumours | Tactics | Who to buy/sell etc

i prefer that(its unlikely) cause it shows continuity and trust that players need, but i know we are gonna buy 2 wc strikers and continue the non-sense when we need to just pick one striker doesn't matter who just one and someone decent as back up, no more circus acts

i dont think the mistake that mourinho made will be reproduced. if you sign an overwhelming CF like Falcao for ex, you cant sign another once because it's simply too expensive.

so why sign another expensive striker now, after saying benz is not allowed to leave? its just unnecessary, strikers were never the issue imo a lack of steady build up play and organization made this really hard

I agree with you, but like i said on rmistas, it's hard for a coach coming in who is asked to win NOW, to put all his eggs in Benzema's plate.

i know and i also i agree with you,but im tired of getting rid of great players that could be special with us, after few bumps same with a manager yet we seem to hold onto the lass and kaka of the world

our CF is not going to make or break this team on the attack. It's CR7. The CF for Madrid is more of a facilitator and opportunistic scorer at this point. I don't think a manager is betting anything on the CF. The biggest bets by far are keeping CR7 and making sure that midfield provides sufficient balls to the attack.

That's why i don't understand the obssession with getting a super duper CF when we're not even going to feature the position.

Sure having a CF that can facilitate and make the game flow better is important for us. but the CF still occupies a central position in front of the defense and he has the duty to work those CBs

This is the worst part of the season for me, silly season. I hope the management don't fall into the trap of "is always greener on the other side". I couldn't help but chuckle when I read some posters saying Isco has had a better season than Ozil.

Benzema has repeated so many times that he wants to stay he isn't going anywhere even if he has to compete with Lewandowski, Real Madrid should be seeking to improve the squad not weaken it by selling players like Di Maria and Benzema.

Ancelloti shouldn't try to rebuild from scratch. This team just need a few purchases the most urgent is a right back, a striker if Higuain leaves, a replacement for Kaka and Carvalho the rest are luxury buys in my opinion.

Mourinho to sign Coentrao for Chelsea for 18m Euros when he moves there.

18 seems pretty cheap considering we signed him for 30 two seasons ago. With that in mind 18 is already kind of high for a defensive player anyway.

Latest "scoops" (lol) from Spain:

Zidane will be the sporting director next season and as a result will have a big say in transfers. Also a chance he might be assistant coach under Carlo.

Uncle Flo is pushing hard for Nerman, if Nerman doesn't happen, Bale will be the player Flo sets his sights on.

Nerman's destination will be known by June 15.

Carlo will leave PSG officially sometime in early June. Flo won't make any announcements until the elections are over.

Napoli are not even going to sit with us to talk about Cavani. It's either 60 million or GTFO.

i dont think he is going for neymar.

is lewandowski that much better than higuain. to me its seems that we arent upgrading, i may be wrong.

we should get isco.

plus gundogan/borja valero, carvajal, cuadrado.

any word on canales? he is injured now right? any change of him coming back? when i see isco, i see similarities with canales.

Canales is back from injury, he was in Spain's squad for this summers Euro U20 together with Morata and Nacho but I doubt he'll be returning to Real Madrid any time soon, despite the club maintaining a buy back option on him.

Canales... such talent.
But he's had terrible luck with injuries in Valencia

Very much doubt it, We have Cole who is good for another season or two, Bertrand who is a decent back up and are after Shaw, who is a Chelsea fan, English and much, much cheaper.

If Mourinho joins you guys it's actually quite possible regardless of who you have on your squad atm.

Coentrao :

"If they are not happy with me, we will have to find a solution. From the first day on, I got the feeling that I was not really wanted here."

"It seems as if everybody wants me to leave the club. I don't know what I have done wrong. We will have to find a solution that's good for the club and for myself. We must both be satisfied.

"Chelsea? I will not close the door on any team if I leave Madrid."

That's disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

exit strategy ol, we are gonna need a new LB

Not sure why he is playing the victim all of a sudden. I mean was given a lot of minutes over the course of two seasons. Not to mention we paid 30 million for him.....

he is acting like his manager zealous, dont be shocked

lol sure

This smells more like Mendes if you really want to blame someone else.

Sevilla want to buy Jese according to AS

They can have Morata but keep your hands off Jese and sling your hook

It always amazes that the two players that should be crying the most, Benz and Higuain, are the ones who are the most quiet and respectful. They speak their minds privately to Madrid and never let the media or anyone else get involved. Higuain's family is speaking up a bit... but it's not that bad and it's not his fault.

Coentrao should not say this kind of stuff publicly. It's fine to think it and say it... but privately. He's not the brightest though lol.

lmao your hate for Morata is like a running joke at this point Can't wait to see Morata beast with Espana this summer.

Hopefully Jese gets the Carvajal treatment and is sent to Bundesgoats Leverkusen
