The Real Madrid Thread [2005 - 2006]

[faceNside]

Jurado did more in 5 minutes than all both players that played left wing before (Zidane, Cicinho). Thanks that Osasuna won... We should have a less frantic summer.

 

[Socrates]

*sigh* What a sh*t performance from us, its as if the players were just waiting ( hoping ) for Osasuna to win. Whenever they got the ball they looked so uninterested to do anything with it. Shameful, I dont know how the hell they scored 3 goals...oh well.

face - Jurado should have started today...especially because Robinho was suspended but no Caro has to make sure he wont start a game and only play 5 mins

 

[Seggie8]

Thats bull eh. Cicinho was all over the place, scrambling and taking unneeded shots from way out. Jurado should have started and played the game I can't stand some of these decisions Caro is making. It was idiotic, but oh well a loss is a loss and we still got through. Don't thank those fools Osasuna, we're just lucky they held up as well.

 

[randy23]

People let me tell ya all that i don't really care if lost this game because just watching Zidane score it was just perfect when he scored to me that was a win! so yeah dont get too upset cuz its not like we were going to win la liga with that game! :chew:

 

[Becks is God]

It was a good game but it sucks that we lost, atleast we finished second and now finally this crap season is over, hopefully we will buy the players that we actually NEED next season, i know Lyon are gonna rob us if we get Diarra but i mean we payed a load of money last season for players like Robinho and Baptista so i think that even if we pay a load of cash for Diarra the rewards of finally having a true DM will outshine the pricetag, id love us to get: Carvalho, Del Horno, Mascherano and Diarra and play:

-------------Casillas--------------
------S.Ramos------Carvalho------
Cicinho---------------------Del Horno
-------Mascherano--Diarra----------
Beckham-------------------Robinho--
-------------Baptista----------------
-------------------------------------
-------------Ronaldo-----------------

but i doubt we will, i can only really see Del Horno comin but ive also heard there could be a swap deal with Salgado to Chelsea and Carvalho to us.

Whatever happens, this summer is going to be very, very interesting

 

[R.9]

It was not the best way of finishing the season.Were are lucky that we don't have to play qualifer match for the CL.Atlest we finish in 2nd to focus more during the summer on how to rebuild this team. Another poor season will be a nightmaire .

SORRY! but i rather get Robben than Macherano and leave Diarra by himself and move Robinho to the front so he can help fat ass Ronaldo but if the team buys a really good striker yeah i wouldnt care if they buy Macherano but if they dont thats how i would like to see it because u r like creating a way too defensive team and we need to be more offensive so we can get more goals! and i dont really think that onlly with Ronaldo we are going to do that!

 

[TheBlueBalla]

Chelsea arent intrested in Salgado. I am willing to bet money I dont have on that

And now that Gallas is leaving for sure, I doubt Carvalho is going either. Del Horno though, you can have

 

[djgperu1]

i agree... we f@kin have a lot of money, so i say letz spend it ....and pay watever they ask...
in my opinion... Cesc IS A MUST... and a CB as well...

 

[Socrates]

No not really bull, Cicinho was having shooting practice out there today and was bad at it.

And now that Gallas is leaving for sure, I doubt Carvalho is going either. Del Horno though, you can have

Gallas will do just fine than, hopefully we can take him before Milan get him. Del Horno is welcomed aswell.

i agree... we f@kin have a lot of money, so i say letz spend it ....and pay watever they ask...
in my opinion... Cesc IS A MUST... and a CB as well...

This is very foolish, why pay 30 M on Diarra when we can get another player for a cheaper price that can do just about the same level of performance as Diarra? Same thing with Cesc, its stupid to waste a lot of money on 1-2 players when we need to get other players in other positions?

because that, my friend, is the Real Madrid way, the only way they know how to do business.

or at least it has been for far too long.

 

[yt23w]

latest rumors are Roberto Carlos is going to Chelsea.

so a gallas/del horno-carlos/salgado swap could be a good thing!

is Madrid actually looking at Mascherano? i hope so...

23 days till the World Cup! im excited.

 

[justhammy]

Very bad season ending. What a nightmare season. This is the worst season that iv ever seen in my whole life.

So this years transfermarket should be attacked by us:

Mascherano is a must! He isnt as expensive as Diarra and about as good. He is actually a better football player overall! Del Horno would be great!! And I think we r gonna get him! I really dont understand why Chelsea dont like him! He is great! Also Carvalho or Gallas are needed too! What I still want to get is De Rossi!! He is young and a great player!

Those 4 should be like $45-55mil.

If Cassano doesnt leave then we r good in attacking. But if he does then we would need a class striker.
And the only one i see playing at us is......Tevez! We shouldnt let him go anywhere! He is a must!!(if Cassano leaves)

Line-up:

---------------Casillas-------------------
--------Ramos---------Gallas-------------
Cicinho-------------------------Del Horno
-------Mascherano---De Rossi-----------
Becks----------------------------Robinho
--------------Baptista--------------------
-----------------------------------------
--------------Ronaldo-------------------

Or:
---------------Casillas-------------------
--------Ramos---------Gallas-------------
Cicinho-------------------------Del Horno
--------------Macherano-----------------
Becks----------------------------Robinho
---------------Baptista------------------
---------Tevez--------Ronaldo-----------

With this team we would be as good as we were before these 3 **** years.
And also Robinho can now make his dribbling without being afraid to lose the ball and get a goal against!

 

[faceNside]

And now that Gallas is leaving for sure

Which is the state of negotations with Milan?

 

[BenBeckham]

For the Player's list check the 1st page:

OUT:
Salgado (too old, too many bookings, too slow)
Helguera (too weak in the air)
Woodgate (too injuryprone)
Minambres (has he ever played this season ?)
Diogo (neither an sufficent RB or DM cover)
Pavon (Mejia & Bravo are better CBs than him easily)
Zidane (retired)
Raul (shadow of the brilliant former player, hindering the club moving on)
Ronaldo (cash in on him, thanks for the goals but it's time to part with the moody, injuryprone, selfcentered starstriker)

EDITED
IN: (can be youth players)
1 RB - a defensive stable one + "freeing Cicinho for RM when needed there. - ?
1-2 Expirienced and good in the air CBs to Partner Ramos - Van Buyten, Gallas
1 DM - Carrick
1 LM back up - Jurado
1-2 Strikers (who are good at heading!) Nistelrooy, Kuyt

My Real Madrid Team (next Season)

---------------Casillas--------------- (Lopes)
Cicinho*---Ramos---???---R.Carlos (?*/Mejia/Bravo)
----------------Carrick--------------- (Gravesen/Garcia)
Beckham--------------------Robinho (Cicinho/Jurado)
----------------Baptista-------------- (Guti)
--------Nistelrooy----Soldado-------- (Cassano)

 

[faceNside]

What I'm seeing in all your 4-4-2 diamond formation is that there is no playmaker midfielder, which is a must in a team like Madrid, eventhough we should sacrifice a forward then.

BenBeckham, the perfect LM sub is Jurado. No need to sign anyone there

 

[BenBeckham]

I've edited my "Roster" - thanks Face.

well alternativley if you want a playmaker why not try Becks ?

Aslong as he's covered defensivley he will do a fantastic job - great shooting and passing skills he has with no doubt. When he was a Rookie he played that often before going moving to the Right Midfield.

Why do you need a "playmaker midfielder"

 

[Seggie8]

No not really bull, Cicinho was having shooting practice out there today and was bad at it.

I know that's what I'm saying, his shots were all well off, except the one that hit the side-netting. All in all, we can't look back on this season too much and Madrid will move on. I just hope and pray that they make the right choices and don't get someone that they don't need, they'll regret it.

 

[justhammy]

Well Face, you r right...I actually forgot! A playmaker is needed for us! Requelme or Aimar would be wonderfull! And Totti would be the best (but thats only happening IF he plays well at the WC)

Btw, BenBeckham...I dont think v. Nistelrooij would fit in Spanish football! Tevez would be better then Ruud or Dirk Kuyt. He is fast, good header, technicaly superb, good shot...he has everything!!
