Real Madrid Thread [2010-2011]

If he's as good as ugly, you've got gold.

Says the guy who's team's captain looks like this:

Puyol is dreamy.

Fideo is his nickname which means 'noodle' in Spanish..

Hahaha, I had an Argentinian friend nicknamed 'noodle' in high school.

Sergio Ramos IS the BEST RIGHT Back in the world. If you think otherwise, you havent been watching his World Cup performances.

he would be a waste at CB. and remember we get Pepe back to partner Albiol

If you think so, based on one World Cup, there's something wrong with you. And I don't think he's been that good, to be honest. He just seems so, because he's always in the attack, but he hasn't produced anything that special, and he's lazy tracking back to help the defense, which exposes the whole team to fast counter attacks.

This.

Maicon in that position for Spain would have been deadly.

Also, for all of his time in attack, he delivers next to nothing final product

Yes, but he is in the attack, thats what you want him to do. Thats one of his strengths, getting forward in attack. If he is used at centerback, then his talent is being wasted.
All im saying is I would have Maicon on the left because Ramos is solid on the right, and the center is covered.

Anyway, arent we gonna buy A.Cole for left back?

Also, what does everyone think about Raul going to Schalke?

That's not all you were saying, in fact, you didn't say anything about that. What you were saying was, that Ramos is supposedly the best right back in the world.

Marca is reporting you has signed:

Pedro Leon and Sami Kheidra

I second this. Everytime Ramos does this, it does worry me because it creates that gap on our defense and makes a counter attack much more dangerous.
