Real Madrid

[MaxY]

it's the same question we ask ourselves when you post some random cristiano stat "X goals in the last Y matches"

That's exactly why I asked in that manner.

so ,3 out of last 5,6 out of last 10?
And because 2008 is a point of changing history when Pep was hired .that is why it is used .

Thanks,I didn't know that. I was curious why not 2009 when Ronaldo came and why 2008 instead.

Current rumors:
1. DDG wants to join RM because Man.Utd have no CL football,yet again.
Madrid feel they have a certain "debt" with De Gea and this was acknowledged by club president Florentino Pérez in a recent interview on the "El Larguero" radio show after their failed attempt to secure the 25 year old last summer as a replacement for Iker Casillas. This June 15 sub-clause only apples to Real Madrid and after this date United are free to place a price of their own on the Spanish goalkeeper. Apparently it's 50 M.
2. Morata being brought back,multiple sources saying that his buy-back clause has already been activated. RM will decide after the pre-season whetever to keep him or sell him to some EPL club.
3. Tuttosport has reported today that La Liga giants Real Madrid have come forward with a bid of €70-80m for the 22-year-old, which was turned down. RM are expected to bid again.
4. James being sold and Pogba a possibility to sign.
TL;DR :
Navas + money for DDG. Morata buy-back clause,after pre-season either kept or sold to EPL. RM trying to sign Dybala,already bid 70 M,willing to go again. James out for 70 + M and Pogba a target. Wendell,some Porto shitter and Rodriguez considered for LB.
Should be a busy summer with most business dealings with Man UTD(James,Navas,DDG,maybe Morata) and Juventus (Morata,Pogba,Dybala).

Nah,no matter how much power Zidane has , Perez is likely to go for DDG. First of all Perez listened to fans and didn't go for big names last summer,yet again we failed La Liga. Not only that but our shirt sales plummeted. Perez and RM were made fun of because of the DDG incident and Perez himself feels like he owes DDG which he does. Do you really think that DDG wants a 2nd out of 3 seasons without Champions League football? Not to mention his family and long-time GF are in Madrid. Navas turns 30 this year and don't forget the transfer ban.
I'll go with some bold predictions : 1.Navas + cash for DDG. 2.A LB,most likely Wendell because he's cheap and wants to come to RM and we won't have too much money because we'll invest elsewhere. We don't want another Coentrao/Danilo case. 3. James out . 4. A world-record or really close to it signing in the name of Dybala/Pogba. 5. Benzema out 6. Euro 2016 flavor of the month. 7. Morata recalled just to be sold.

Why would benzema be sold. Be it fans,players or perez I am sure they all know how important and underrated benz is for RM.

You will have to break the transfer record for Dybala, no doubt on that one. Juve's president has said a couple of times already that he and Pogba are their only players that will not be sold at any price this summer. Juve don't have to sell and neither of those will force their way out. Also, what the hell are you planning to do with Benzema if you break the bank signing Dybala? Benzema fits like a glove at RM and is one of the best strikers in the world.

 

[khaled_a_d]

I can understand the idea of selling Benzema ,RM will have a ban and Cr7 will sure decline during it despite probably remaining one of the top 5-10 players in the world .Benzema isn't that young either and many RM always felt he is the weak link between the front 3
So,this is the area they can make an upgrade to compensate for Cr7 decline to keep the front line gr8.Many would argue that Dybala is very close to Benzema level(I disagree with that btw) and with age on his side he can only get better

God damn, that's a whole ton of activity. No Galactico last summer must and a transfer ban approaching, you'd expect one this summer.

Still, crazy to sell Benz given the season he's had. Dybala is obviously great but you'll struggle to find a striker as selfless as Benz.

 

[ThwiX]

As long as they don't get Pogba, I'm fine. If they do, God help us. Then I fear we might see a shift of dominance again.

I think DDG might come, regardless of how well Navas have done, regardless if we win the cl or not. James is most likely out. Dont agree that Coentrao/Danilo can be compared, both where very expensive rotation options, but Coentrao was a very solid player for us, Danilo is worse than Douglas.

 

[Aryagorn]

I hope Navas gives a reason to be sold for.... Unlike last time

The shift is inevitable, with us signing benchwarming oldies, our aging starting eleven and how we are reluctant to freshen up our starting eleven, it could even be sooner

Since you have this awesome insider knowledge on who we're signing this summer, be a doll and enlighten us?
