You want me to fetch you the glorious compilation of Benzema's missed sitters and epic fails?
Seriously, stop your pathetic agenda against the kid. It's his first year, he's still very young, he rarely ever plays and, more importantly, nobody ever claimed that he's the next R9.

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
Looked mostly unlucky, to me. He didn’t expect it to rebound off the post, so he had to stretch out his leg to connect with the ball, which limited the power and angle of the shot. The goalie did well to save it with his leg, still. I suppose you could argue that Jovic should’ve anticipated the rebound, as well as the trajectory of it, but that’s a bit harsh, I think 
I like this good cop, bad cop thing you’re doing with Jovic though, ChadAngel

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
You have to understand, when you're not a fan of the club and just a player, you post horseshit like what Varangel did because, simply put, the love for the club is not there. No actual fan would post that as Jovic is a Madrid player and is carded as an investment for the future (or immediate tbh) and we all want our guys to succeed. Shit, I think Conetois is a shit keeper but I hope he continues to not be one. Hala is in love with Regi but he still supports Mendy. Thimmy is legally bound to support Odegaard but he'll be a Madrid fan when Ode heads to Everton.
In any case, Jovic is 23 in a new league, new team and in a new country. He has a lot of learning and I personally do not think Madrid is gonna wait around for longer than a season for him to fully catch himself but at the same time, I think he has the ability to succeed here. If he doesn't, well, Madrid would just buy someone else. Anelka was bought for 30 plus million (maybe 20+, can't remember), he was rubbish bar a few CL games and Madrid ended up buying someone else. It's the way the club works. Being a fan, you know these things (:

Say what you will about Chad, but as opposed to Varangel he is also clearly a Real Madrid fan on top of being a Benzema maniac

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
I don’t know if you’re joking, they’re clearly, obviously the same person. I’m sure Chad wants to have a go at Jovic, but he knows we would just write it off as him protecting Benzema, as that’s what he’s done with our past strikers, and that’s simply the only thing he’s capable of doing with every inch of talent in his body. Instead, he plays the level-headed, patient guy (those are extinct on this forum) and lets Varangel do the criticizing for him.

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
Luka Jovic takes full responsibility for breaking regulations regarding the Corona pandemic, but claims he broke isolation because he wasn't aware of the rules. He says he doesn't want to blame the authorities for his ignorance, but points towards differences in regulations between Spain and Serbia.
Either way, I second Sport's assessment of his behavior in this situation.

We'd need to put in more than 100m for that to go through.

Nah, Haaland's release clause will be 75 mil January 2021. That's 10 months away.
I think a deal could be done. Dortmund may ask for Hakimi to be included as well.
But Hakimi is so good. I don't want him sold.

FYI... Mbappe only has 2 years left on his contract. He's on a free in June 2022.

I thought we were speaking about summer.
I think we're front runners for him if we bring in Ødegaard though. At the same time would be good. It means a lot for player that they know they'll be treated well if we are to lure them to our club. Summer 21 would be perfect to get them both since I think Benzema will be 100% shot by that time and no striker is getting a chance over him.

But I just thought it best to mention his release clause next year.
But if Mbappe is available in 2021. I'll go with Mbappe. Proven.

He needs someone to spell it out to him that he can't leave isolation? Psh, no wonder he has struggled to nail down a starting spot, the young lad is a bit of a dunce. Shame, was totally in his corner.
Oh well, on to the next hopeful forward I suppose.

Really? Haven't heard anything about this being more than a rumour, and a rumour btw that Eintracht officials have tried to shoot down

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
Marca reported it followed by Romano. I think some media outlet in Serbia reported it first.
Eitther way I hope its true he needs to play more and I have no idea why Zidane would "ask" for this player and not play him, but Jovic hasn't really convinced me when he plays. Frankfurt is probably his top level, and that's ok.

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
It's being reported by Marca who are quoting Republika; a Serbian Magazine. So it's not really coming from a Marca source here.
I would take the rumor seriously, but I would still wait a little bit longer to see if it has any truth to it.

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
I feel bad for him.
Maybe he didn't assimilate into the dressing room and culture.
And with Benzema in the team, it's hard a young striker.
I'm any case Zidane loves confident players.

I feel bad for him too because he was treated unfairly from the get-go. He wasn't given enough playing time to even familiarize himself with the Spanish league, and then the media haunted him like hounds publishing every mistake he made to make the fanbase turn on him too. I mean how dare a 23-year old act reckless at times?!
Hope he regains his form at Frankfurt and I also hope Madrid stops buying young prospects and destroying their careers like that.

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
its not necessarilly about prospects. jovic was a 'safe' buy; meaning, not good enough to where if he is benched there would be any complaints, and not a mayoral type player to where you cant really rely on him. there are some guys u sign and u look at their cache and u go okay that dude has to play. jovic wasnt that, and madrid and zizou didnt have any plans of buying that. when we signed him, i knew immediately what it was which was why my first post about him was that he will be consigned to the bench and wont get minutes......and i had never even seen him play football at all, but i knew the outcome of that move

Re: Luka Jovic: Thicc boi
Zidane confirmed in the media meet today that Jovic didn't adapt well to the league and Spain.
Jovic seems to have the same personality as Bale.
Zidane likes players who are confident in themselves and have a great relationship with the squad.
It's all about the squad. That's why he likes Lucas Vazquez so much. Hard worker, confident and the squad loves him.

2 goals on his return to Eintracht Frankfurt
Looks so happy. Good for him.
So who's going to play as striker if Benzema gets injured?
I don't think any right minded Madrid member looks at Mariano and says he is the man for the job. Maybe I'm wrong
