Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
Xabi is not Kroos.Even then, Madrid played 4-4-2, not a 3 man midfield.

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
precisely, di maria is so wondeful we can adapt tactics wise, point being that kroos would still occupy xabi's spot. indeed kroos is not xabi, but we will try and if it doesnt work, we just move on lol

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
When we attack it's a 4-3-3, but whenever Ronaldo doesn't track back we defend with a 4-4-2. Long term I think it's best we get someone who's decent defensively to play with Modric and Di Maria in midfield.

because we need a player to rotate with Benzema who's to inconsistent and weak mentally ? or even take his spot if he doesn't perform ?
spoken like a true casual, why not play marcelo as false 9 he can dribble right?

yeah marcelo at false 9 could be a hit, he is a scrub at LB anyway.

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
Marcelo as a false 9 
I'd pay so much to see that
I don't understand this signing, at all.

That might work! I'm pretty sure a lot of people used to play R.Carlos as CF in Brazil national team when playing PES/Winning Eleven

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
i digress a bit; i don't understand the infatuation with james, we do not play a nos 10, at least not in carlo's 4 3 3. whilst i like what i saw from james at the world cup, it is dangerous to use such a tournament (despite being the best sports tournament in the world imo) as a standard of measurement to sign players. playing well in 4 games, (or 7 if u make the semis) is completely different from club football which entails 60 plus games in a season....so whilst james, though seems a good player he's not exactly what we need, not as a midfielder nor a false 9. i hope di maria stays, i'm hearing psg are about tabling an offer....as for kroos, i'd watch him play for us first before praising or criticizing him. i do think he's filling alonso's position though, and age is catching up with alonso. its weird that we spent 35 million for illara lol smh

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
Where were all of you buddies? I know 2 weeks ago Kroos is already signed for Real Madrid. He's a perfect fit for our 4-3-3 giving us a better posession and control of the game in the position of Di Maria, Di Maria will be sold for 60M to PSG.

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
And we dont want to be a counter team. Thats why we are signing Kroos. With a midfield Alonso-Modric-Kroos we will have more control of the game. I dont say play boring tiki taka, but control de game. Real Madrid was miles times better when we play Isco in the midfield in mid season Alonso-Modric-Isco, but we pot Di Maria because Isco is not good at defending, Kroos is a little bit better because he is not a full attacking player like Isco. Alonso-Modric-Kroos. Or the same Alonso (schwansteiger) Khedira-Kroos that we are watching in the world cup is a killer midfield at controlling the tempo of the game. With Di Maria we are a run and gun team, too much fast players. Alonso-Modric-Kroos-CR-Benzema-Bale is the team, you can remember this. Di Maria is out.Mr Nick09 wrote:no he wont lol,

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
we cant play possession with CR and Bale, they dont press and they cant create anything. You play the game that suits your best player. anyway, kroos is going to bench alonso, di maria is too important off the ball. you can also remember this, he is not going.

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
You speak like if we always play counter attack, and that is not the truth. We only play counter attack against Barcelona and Bayern because they run the game. I've seen Real Madrid this season playing really great football, when we put more players in the middle who can keep the ball. And I repeat you, Im not saying play tiki taka, Im saying play more control football, aka Heynckes Bayern or our same style. It is very clear. Kroos in the Di Maria position and we have the best team in the world by far.Mr Nick09 wrote:we cant play possession with CR and Bale, they dont press and they cant create anything.

It will be VERY intersting to see which of you will turn out to be right, because I think you both make some meaningful points.

We weren't a counter team last year.. Intact Barcelona scored more goals from counter attacks than us in the league. We were mostly about balance.
Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
We can play two styles with the squad that we have, that flexibility is great to have.
Now all we need is to take it to the next level and have the legendary 4 in 1 style created by super_mag. He was right all along ffs

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
in my opinion, if kroos is to take anyone's spot it should be alonso. i may be wrong but i think alonso as a starter is done, his body is giving out, this is no fault of his, since the guy joined us, he has been playing in loads and loads of games, especially under mourinho's regime, where we had no one who could play in his position well till the point the guy got exhausted. to the point that people raise, saying kroos isnt that good on defense; alonso really isn't that great on defense either, he's just okay, and faces problems against high pressing teams. i think carlo's 4 3 3 emphasizes collective defense from the midfield 3 rather than a double pivot style which sees one of the two holding midfielders focus solely on the defensive role. i do hope di maria stays, the work ethic the guy showed in a position that wasn't familiar to him at madrid has to be applauded, (argentine fans tell me that he has played that position with their national team before though) and he played the role better than other people who are actual midfielders, and ran tirelessly throughout; you cannot put a monetary value on such players (lol in football these days, technically u can); but the guy is priceless, i hope carlo encourages him to stay....carlo will have his hands full net season especially in terms of the midfield. and we still have khedira, who i think is a hard worker as well and deserves his props, i get the feeling people don't like him cos he's not a dribbler or finesse passer, but the guy does his job well, not everyone in the team should be an offensive player, and even in the final, the guy had not played for months cos of his injury, so people need to cut him some slack

Re: Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid
Well Kroos is from East Germany so he probably doesn't care about all that Mia San Mia family show that Bayern put on.
Dude probably just wants to get paid and play at the elite level. I'd be super happy if/when he signs. He can ball.
EDIT: Typo
