I'm not too fond of it either. I don't think injuries has been his only issue for us. He seemed to be far behind in the pecking order when he was fit during Zidane's last tenure. Would've absolutely preferred to keep him as a backup, but I suppose it was in his best interest to leave. As for Atletico, contrary to recent reports, Joao Felix doesn't seem to be going to the red side of Madrid. The future of their team looks to be up in the air, right now.

I think the purchase of Joao Felix is solely dependent on the sale of Griezmann. If Antoine isn't sold, I think there is no money for Felix.

Which makes sense, as they somewhat play the same position

by Mr Nick09 Fri Jun 21, 2019 11:22 am

Antoine is already sold to Barca doc, they are just waiting July to announce it. It's done dealio, and has been since March

by Doc Fri Jun 21, 2019 11:39 am

No way would Barcelona wait all the way till July to announce the signing of a world renown footballer. That honestly makes little sense.

by Mr Nick09 Fri Jun 21, 2019 11:56 am

i dont know the exact reason why he can't announce it just yet, my understanding is, it's contractual. i think his clause goes down to 120 mil in july and it's the start of the next fiscal year. I dont know if there are rules about announcing it in advance, but that's how they chose to proeed. It's done.

Di Marzio announcing a 50 mil deal for Kovacic to Chelsea. What a coup

by halamadrid2 Thu Jun 27, 2019 6:04 pm

nice piece of business by the club

If we can do the same for Bale thatd be great. We should hold on to James for as long as possible. We might even break the 80M boundry with how he's playing in the Copa

by VanDeezNuts Thu Jun 27, 2019 8:22 pm

Chelsea pretty much had to buy him as they probably won't be able to sign anyone this summer, so that is why the price might be a bit inflated.

by Kick Fri Jun 28, 2019 1:13 am

The 50m seems to be including bonuses, so I'd say it's closer to 35m

by The Demon of Carthage Fri Jun 28, 2019 7:30 am

It's 45m according to Marca, not 50. A small difference but still a difference.

by Mr Nick09 Fri Jun 28, 2019 12:10 pm

Next, Theo will go to Milan on a loan with obligation to buy for 20 mil.

by VanDeezNuts Fri Jun 28, 2019 1:50 pm

Marca reporting that Ceballos wants to stay and fight for his spot. I admire the boy’s spirit at least.

by futbol_bill Fri Jun 28, 2019 3:24 pm

Agreement re Odegaard. Signs a renewal with Real Madrid and agreement with Real Sociedad for 2 year loan.

Ah Deez, Marca just reporting part of interview. He said I don’t want to be sold! He also said no matter where he plays, he wants to feel important! He would prefer a loan or a sale with buyback!

Lucas Vasquez is still here.

The hell??

Want him to leave as much as Bale.

by halamadrid2 Sat Jun 29, 2019 8:43 am

Why would Lucas want to leave. His seasons follow a common pattern:

Starts as a reserve player --> Bale gets injured ---> Asensio is non productive ---> we start to leak goals and losing games at an alarming rate ---> Lucas becomes the starter by December and stays that way until end of the season

We need a new RW ffs

by VanDeezNuts Sat Jun 29, 2019 2:03 pm

Well if Vini and Rodrygo are planned to play RW then it's a lot less likely your series of events plays out that way.

by halamadrid2 Sat Jun 29, 2019 2:36 pm

We have already tried Vini at RW. It lasted a half. Will ZZ trust Rodrygo over Lucas? The answer is most possibly no. That scenario will play out like I put it out this coming seasn unless we get a new RW in trust me

by Mr Nick09 Sat Jun 29, 2019 3:12 pm

He is gonna have to perform on that wing, if not I still think 4231 still puts our attacker in their best positions.

Also we have not talked about Kubo here, kid is another straight up baller. Kubo and Brahim are too left footed baller no one is expecting to do much, I'm rooting for both

by halamadrid2 Sat Jun 29, 2019 3:30 pm

No he'll just have to outperform his competitors. Easy peasy given that both his competitors are rubbish or never available. I hope Brahim stays but I doubt it

Even with a 4231 well still need a RW. Vini woule play on the left, Hazard behind the striker and whoever on the right

by Freeza Sat Jun 29, 2019 4:02 pm

I want to sign the player that hala thinks Lucas is

by Mr Nick09 Sat Jun 29, 2019 4:03 pm

I'm not gonna disagree, you know I was actually looking a Marca piece about City wanting to sign Isco, and knowing Sané wants out of City, I started wondering, why not make that deal? Serves everyone involved. Exchange plus cash or whatever arranges both clubs, we all win

by sportsczy Sat Jun 29, 2019 4:16 pm

We're actually using City's interest in Isco to get Man U to want him as part of the Pogba deal...

by halamadrid2 Sat Jun 29, 2019 4:23 pm

I doubt Isco will move. I get the club want to cash in but ZZ isn't going to push him out and he won't want to move from Spain for family reasons

The club should focus on getting Bale off their books

Doesn't Sane play on the left? I'd rather the club go after Pepe or Dembele

by halamadrid2 Sat Jun 29, 2019 4:24 pm

Why would Utd want Isco if City do ????

by Mr Nick09 Sat Jun 29, 2019 4:36 pm

Please keep that Numpty Dembele away from here last thing we should be doing is financing barca efforts to sign Neymar back, they are difficult enough to eat as is.

Sané on theory can play on the right, he did so at Schalke before Guardiola stuck him on the left. It was just a thought anyway.
