Transfer Rumours | Tactics | Who to buy/sell etc

Broke his collarbone last week for juvenil A.

Does anybody else think there's a veiled liaison between our club's recent mini-signing spree and FIFA's decision to investigate our youth transfer history? Are we hiding something?

At first, I was a little worried we may have done something fishy. But the more I thought about it, the more I got relaxed.
If we truly had done something illegal, we wouldn't have signed Odegaard and Silva to strengthen the squad before the inevitable ban settles in. We would've signed two, possibly three, big names like Pogba and De Gea.

So, who do you want this summer, in and out ?

In : DDG, Danilo, Gaya, Verratti, Paco Alcacer
Out : Keylor, Coentrao, Khedira, Illarra, Chicharito

The squad would look like this

DDG, Iker
Danilo, Carvajal, Arbeloa
Ramos,Varane,Pepe, Nacho
Marcelo,Gaya(Arbeloa)
Kroos,Modric,Verratti, L.Silva
James,Isco,Bale(Jese)
Cristiano,Benzema,Paco,Jese

SELL BALE

If something doesn't change I definitely want Bale out of the team. He's been so terrible for pretty much this entire season. I love the guy as a person and his first season was good but I think my patience is finally wearing thin. I'd like to see us go after Hazard,either this year on in the next 1-2 years.

we have to stay within financial fair play.

if we are to sign de gea or pogba or veratti or all these names that are being bandied about.

Madrid sold ozil two seasons, then sold di maria last season. who will Madrid sell this summer?

I choose bale, if manu are offering in excess of 100 mil.

but I feel that it will be isco , varane and maybe even jese being sold.

same florentino. why do we act surprised when he does it.

keep bale, we'll take Varane and Isco

cyborg you clearly want bale to stay

Any news about a new LB? Coentrao seems to be leaving also

If he leaves then I can see Madrid trying for someone like Gaya

I thought Madrid were after Gaya?

2015/2016

Modrić as a sub,seriously? And we wouldn't pay and most importantly, Morata wouldn't come back just to be a sub. He's a starter at Juventus and he can win silverware every year.

modric for isco or vice versa. i took into account age.

i thought the same about morata, he is may not want to return but it is the clubs decision

even if morata returns there's no guarantee he'll play (honestly i doubt he'll return)....little history lesson for the newer fans, florentino was desperate to get rid of morientes (lazio, spurs, even barcelona were linked) , the knockout at monaco happened (mori was a lot more vocal than morata, he celebrated happily and even at the end of the second leg, whilst walking to the dug out gave a "yeah" at the camera). he returned (most people forget that) and played in a ucl qualifying game (we finished 4th the previous year), came off the bench and scored to help us into the group stage...he sat on the bench thereafter, owen got signed and he left to liverpool on loan...i doubt morata will see the minutes he's seeing at juve should he return, besides as maxyz points out, he'll prolly see silverware there on a consistent basis

There's no way in the world that Morata would play over Benzema... like ever.  So he would have to languish on the bench.  Why would he do that?  He is a starter at Juve and has a good thing going.

Besides, the CF at Madrid is more of a playmaker than a scorer with both Bale and CR on the team.  Morata is not a playmaker in any sense of the world.  Like Chicha, he would do fine against the lesser teams and mostly be invisible against the better teams...  not a knock on their talent; but there's a clear pecking order when it comes to who gets the scoring chances.  1 is Ronaldo, 2 is Bale and 3 is CF. When the chances are fewer, the CF needs to do other things to exist on the pitch.

thats why i suggested a young talented striker instead. there are dozens of belgium strikers who havent made their mark, but i have my eyes on embolo, looks great in youtube.

mmm, we need more attacking talent, so i want to know what you guys think about say, nabil fakir, felipe anderson as wingers even though fakir is like an AM.

Also a striker, lazaratti and emoblo, who has higher potential and overall package as CF of real madrid.

you can't use youtube to judge how good a player will be. anybody out there can be good, but playing at madrid and succeeding requires more than just been good, it requires a lot of mental fortitude and toughness. just take a look at bale, i bet he has some million dollar youtube videos, but he has been playing 10 cent football at madrid.....i don't think any of those guy you mentioned is ready to play here

i am not saying all of them will sucseed, but some of them will, we cant just not sign talents, if we sell bale, we have to look for a talented players to replace. Look at neymar, hazard etc.

We need to steal the future, or at least try.

yeah, because Neymars and Hazards grow in trees

Are there any good DMs around ? Matic is world's best but he is untouchable. We need one badly.

casemiro.

you dont rate him.

isnt he starting eleven material.

he could be a good backup but I don't want to see Casemiro starting a CL semi-final tbh.

My dream would be getting ADM back but probably wouldn't happen for political reason. I hope Perez has learnt his lesson that player>>> shirts

no more headless chickens please
