Real Madrid Thread [2008 - 2009]

[KingPaulV]

Well Pellegrini it is. I think he is a wonderful coach but his downfall is gonna be pressure getting the best of him....I hope for our sake not.....

Its kind of hard not losing five in a row when you know you got nothing to play for and your archrivals are celebrating a treble....We couldnt go up higher than 2 or lower than 2......anyway, its pointless arguin. Florentino is the man we shall see.....the plot thickens and the summer is young

 

[Arnau]

dont think so.

el juego brusco del pelotazo y el cabezazo especulativo no tiene resultados más que a corto plazo...
El barça ha valorado el talento frente a la especulación ya que ha combatido con eficacia lo que se llama la tiranía del corto plazo y ha trabajado en términos estratégicos apostando por la formación y la estabilidad hasta el punto de contar con 7 canteranos titulares en una final de la champions.

So i'm interested to hear what moves do you madrid fans think will most likely materialize for you this offseason?

 

[sparebenzs]

I hope you will have your brighter season this year Madrid.. Im from the Philippines, and I really love your club...

 

[drummodino]

I hope real gets ronaldo. Real are my fav spanish team and ronaldo just seems perfect for them. Just keep your hands off Alonso!!!

Kaka.

 

[KingPaulV]

well, I'm thinking realistically well get kaka, ronaldo or ribery but not both xabi alonso and silva or villa not both...besides that I have no idea because we have a lot of different needs

 

[Deni_Rossonero]

Don't take Kaka' away! Why is madrid the only club that cannot find a superstar for themselves and has to steal from other clubs, you'll never feel like Kaka' is a part of your club if he comes and you will never have what Milan fans have with him! I'd be sick if Milan wanted Rooney or Torres, how can you guys be ok with that?

There is soMethng about the Madridismo in general that you need to understand...most madridistas have few idols, their greater idol is championships irrelevant of who brings it or how you bring it...while it is not right it is the truth and championships will govern every desire and most decisions made...so wether it is kaka ronaldo ribery even iniesta anyone who can bring championships will be accepted regardless of who they played for before hand

your ******* mother! iniesta ?!

 

[KingPaulV]

Don't get crazy I was using him as an example of someone who is very cule but who Madridistas would not mind having

 

[Arnau]

what?
madridistas love to have culers in his squad.

 

[Socrates]

what?

Iniesta = closet Madridista, or so I have heard.

So anyway seems like Kaka is a done deal and Ronaldo is next, than the Spanish players from what I hear they are Villa, Silva, X. Alonso, and Albiol.

 

[Jaboldinho]

So you will bench your entire midfield?

 

[Socrates]

So you will bench your entire midfield?

Well it seems like we will have a lot of changes, Pellegrini tends to play a 4-2-3-1 so midfield would be Lass and Xabi with Ronaldo, Kaka, and Silva/Robben (if we keep him) in front of them. I am interested to see the moves we make, Perez wants to bring in 6 players but comment's that our squad is too big right now (I think we have 29 right now) so that's a lot of players we need to sell to bring that down.

 

[KingPaulV]

Actually soc pellegrini plays the 4-4-2 more often than the 4-2-3-1 but that lineup you gave is pretty good...I say m.diarrah vdv an drenthe are out for sure..parejo guti and javi. Garcia are probably gonna be loans I think guti sneijder and
Robben stay...Along with gago but if de la red recovers I would sell gago and keep de la red so that means silva, ronaldo, kaka and xabi a. All would have a place

 

[ArgVega]

If most those transfers happen, you are gonna bring in too many pre maddonas to your team... I would guarantee there will be problems with all those guys demanding to start, it could be another unstable season for you guys... I think the problem is you guys try to sign too many stars, which ends in conflict... You need to learn to build a team not buy one, like barca do

 

[MaestroZidane]

out of all those names, the only "pre madonna" will be Ronaldo, all others on the list really have a good handle on themselves.

And Deni Rossonero, I gave my personal opinion on Kaka's possible move during the january transfer window.. So I'm with you on this. But IF it happens, there is really nothing much we can do, but keep up the support.

 

[Ulysses]

I really hate this madrid team, there is nothing holy about this club. All the stupid gloryhunting fans like this team because they have so many trophies and they always steal players from other teams with absurd transfer fees.

Football is about passion not about always winning. Real Madrid lacks passion completely.

On paper yes it's a 4-4-2 but in reality for me it's more of a 4-2-3-1 with the 3 behind the main ST being free roming AM, if you look at his Villarreal squad he only had one actual winger the rest were AM which Kaka, Silva, and Ronaldo will be put at if we sign them all.

I don't know man on who goes and stays. If Wesley gets his **** togeather than I would keep him as he can play in Pellegrini formation as can M. Diarra as a backup to Lass. Gago can back up Xabi and that is good for midfielders. I would sell Robben depending on how much we get for him or maybe even a trade for Ribery. VdV could be let go as he has shown nothing really, Ruud is too old, Salgado is too old as well, J. Garcia, loan out Parejo and A. Bueno, Drenthe should be sold or maybe even loaned. Jeez, too many players to think about lol. Anyway we need to see who comes first before I can say for sure who to sell and keep.
