Real Madrid (old thread)
The buy-back clause is not eternal, its usually effective for one season, two at the most. Soldado's been with getafe for 2 seasons now, if real madrid want him back, they'll have to pay the buyout clause, something valencia will have no problem doing: its 10 million euros. Im guessing Real... -

i may be mistaken, but soldado has no legal binds to madrid anymore. As for who he'd choose, im not that sure. With all the national team players in barcelona, he might have more friends there than in Madrid. i dont think city is going to go for 18 million again. During the winter break, they... -

Thats my whole point: While you had pavones, none of them were starters. Your important players were all checkbook players (Zidane, Figo, Ronaldo) while our important players are all cantera (messi, Xavi, Purol, Pique, Iniesta). As for the income, Real generates a mere 35 million euros more... -

Sport's saying that, should Cesc fail, they'll go for Silva -

No, the only difference is that we're signing stars while keeping 7 canteranos on our starting 11 and playing the best attacking football in the world. During the galacticos, how many starters were a product of your cantera? (hint: Hierro is not a canterano) As for the debt, do you really think... -

There is no way madrid is going to recall negredo. He's been in terrible form and is not worth the 18 million euros madrid would have to dish out to get him back, Sevilla would be grateful if Madrid did decide to recall him. As for kaka, the only club stupid enough to dish out a serious amount... -

Thats not exactly hard though, all a player needs is consistency. Guti's personality and professionalism (or lack thereof) condemned him as a terrible player on average. On a good day, he's world class but, due to his lack of commitment to pretty much anything, he's always had one good day for... -

I've always thought Madrid's plan was for silva to assume the playmaker role -
Real Madrid (old thread)
I feel like madrid is going to load themselves up with too many "starters" without knowing what type of formation the new coach is going to take. What happens if mourinho, for example, wants a big striker (a la drogba, Milito, Ibra) instead of higuain? Do you send higuain to the bench (again)... -

Marca's saying Madrid could close Silva this week. Shouldn't you wait until you sign a new coach and see what his demands are, you know, let the coach build the team and not Valdano? -

im not sure how the bernabeu is going to take the 1-0 wins and the 8 man defensive system against attacking clubs. Do you think Mourinho can adapt his game not only to the team, but also to what the fans expect? -

Perez wealth is unquestionable, i think he's the richest man in spain. He's a great bussiness man, but his football knowledge is very limited. He's the visible head of the club, but he doesn't get involved in much, leaving all football-related work to his board. In other news, Real madrid's... -

Argentina has Higuain, Tevez, Messi, Aguero and diego milito, is it really far-fetched for them to play with 2 forwards and two of the previously mentioned on the wing?. In my opionion, all 5 are ahead of di maria for a position on the starting 11. -----Mascherano----Lucho-------... -

But so was Benzema, and french league is (slightly) more prestigious than the Portuguese one. What about the rest though? Alves, Tevez, silva, robben? Do you believe Di Maria to be on the same level? -
Real Madrid (old thread)
He's a great prospect, but not a 35 million euro prospect. I've always said a player's value should have some sort of relation to other transfers. Taking that in mind: How can you pay 35 million euros for a (generally) unproven player when Bayern payed 25 millions for Robben, Inter 15 or... -
Player of the Season (Other than Messi!)
1. Messi, no explanation needed 2. Xavi, he's been a lot more involved in attack this year. His through passes and his ability to distribute play have been crusial. 3. Pique: Kept up with a full speed Cristiano in the clasico, rock solid in defense, best defender in the world -
Player that surprised you positively this season
Pedro doing well was no surprise. He had already shown glimpses of greatness here and there, it was only a matter of time before he became an important part of the first team. Its as if Thiago got promoted to the first team and had a great season next year. It'd be great but surprising? not...
