Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
thing is Skriniar is not only a fast player, he also reads the game and tackles extremely well.halamadrid2 wrote:With the way we play we need our CBs to be fast too. If we don't get players that actually fit us this is going to be another Courtois situations. That's not to say that Skriniar isn't a good CB but he won't fit us imo. Neither the overhyped DeLight. Hernandez said that it wasn't right at the time to move especially since we were getting Theo in thr same summer. Lucas wasn't even a regular when we tried to get him.
THe n1 attribute of he player we sign can't just be speed.
Now if you are arguing that we should sign him as LB that's another argument i am more inclined to listen to

I definitely like Skriniar, but I would really prefer for Varane to stay. If we're going to have to replace someone over the next few years, it will likely be Ramos.

He's good. Not Varane level... who i feel many of you shamefully underestimate here... but he's good. Crazy thing is that Varane is only 1 year older yet is much, much, much better.
We will regret it big time if we let Rafa go. The prime years for CBs happen between ages 27 and 32 imo so we haven't even seen him at his best. He's not the type of player you let go.
He's still very young and deserves the money. You give him the big 5 year deal and he's 30 by the end of it... still in his prime years.

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
Skriniar is up there in quality with the likes of Koulibaly and Chiellini in serie A, that's definitely the same level of quality as Varane. Like i said, Varane is great, i would prefer that he stays too, but he did not set himself apart as a CB compared to his peers to the point where him leaving is dramatic.

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
Well, in any case, Varane straight up denied he had intentions of leaving.
Varane wrote:“I’m a very calm person and when that happens the big problem is that people like to write and talk about me and I hear and read so many things. I’m in Real Madrid, the world’s biggest club,” said Varane.
“To say that I am not happy there isn’t true. My career, my season... we had a difficult season where we had to fight and I gave it my all and I am proud of that. I cannot control every rumor, it’s just a lie,” he added.

Those guys are yet to play CL football, how could they be at the same level with Varane ?

Literally all of them played CL football this season (and more), and one of them is still in the CL

Skriniar played with Inter in the group stages this season Valk. Koulibaly as well with Napoli. And Varane is better than either of them.

Jose Luis Sanchez: Varane has told he club he would like to leave this summer
Since we met with Ramadani, Koulibaly is an option to replace him.
Koulibaly I an amazing defender, but Napoli will ask the same amount that we sell Varane for lol.
I think Skriniar is right up there, less experienced maybe, less tested but not far from Koulibaly's level and younger. Also Koulibaly plays the same LCB position as Ramos

Madrid supposedly point to his 500m pricetag (release clause) for Varane. Come get him PSG.
In reality we should just pay him, would be much less of a headache than signing someone new.

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
Yeah, he is apparently underpaid (on a 100k wage compared to the rest of the important core) so we should just pay him what he deserves and has seriously earned.
Also, still do not think Koulibaly or Skriniar is better than him.

Absolute no brainer to give him a decent raise.
How much does he get now, 10m gross? give him a 5 year contract with 18m, or even 20m, gross and thereby you'll have 40m-50m extra costs. No way you get a defender anywhere near as good for that price, and then you'd still have to pay that one's wages

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
Calma, this is no different than the Ramos situation a couple of years ago. This just Varane demanding a (well deserved) increase in salary. Salary increases are not dealt with this time of year. All will be resolved this summer!
Besides defense is the one area that is set for next year. Only question is whether Marcelo stays or goes

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
Varane saying that he is staying in Madrid for next season..
Call me suspicious but why not say that you are staying period? Sounds to me like he is leaving next summer. I feel like Zidane convinced him to stay one more year and then he will bounce, specially as it's gonna be the euros.
If I find the odds of varane leaving Madrid next summer I'll put money on it

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
I wouldn't say that necessarily. I feel like that is most player's response when they ask about it. Not that they are certain to leave the next summer, but because football is uncertain and they don't want to guarantee anything they can't explicitly promise. For now, he knows he will be here this coming season, as for next season who knows? Could stay, could leave, so much time and football to be played between now and then.

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
There is a rather huge contract dispute going on between Madrid and Varane. The "convincing" was Madrid giving the opportunity for him to leave if agreement can't be found IF he stays one more year.
They can't pay him what EPL clubs are offering. Well, they can. But they'd need to move Ramos. Maybe Ramos gets sold next summer instead and allows Madrid to pay Varane.
He is GROSSLY underpaid.

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
Varane is earning 140k. He should be up there with Kroos and Ramos at 200k. No clue why Modric is only earning 180k. Either way, we can't compete with English teams in terms of wages, and we shouldn't. Having a wage structure, as has been discussed before, is absolutely necessary. Alexis Sanchez earns even more than Bale ffs.

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
Varane is asking for 250k fyi according to media in France and won't take a penny less. Some EPL teams (man u imo) are allegedly offering him 300k.
According to media in France, this contract is ALL about the money for Varane. He's won everything. He feels this one's his biggest contract in his career.

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
I understand it from his point of view. It's going to suck for us, though. As much as some people seem to take him for granted, there really aren't many relatively young, quality, center backs out there.

Oh Boy, I hope this isn’t true. Flo doesn’t like paying big money to any defensive player and apparently only gave into Ramos’ blackmail because there wasn’t Any viable alternative.

Absolutely agreed, a wage structure is seriously important to any organisation.
At the same time, Varane really is "underpaid" at Madrid and should not be making less than the likes of Kroos or Modric. Basically, we'll see how this goes. I know at least ONE of us would be glad to see him go.

Re: l'Equipe: Varane is considering leaving
His current contract runs until 2022. So next summer is when Madrid either need to give him what he wants or sell. The 2 year mark is when you can get max transfer value. You wait until 1 year and the price drops like a rock.
I'm hoping Flo sees the light. Top young CBs don't grow on trees.
