    Ah pardon me. My bad.

    State of La Liga

    Also, here's one more reason. Just thought of it. I do agree that 20 million for each team a year won't 'all the sudden' make every team better. It's like the work my family does for 3rd world countries. Some countries we go to take advantage of our help and do very well. They are self...

    State of La Liga

    Fantastic question. I'm not sure if I an answer, but I'm going to take a stab. Everyone, please feel free to prove me wrong. I'm sure there are a lot of holes in my answers. 1) 20 million more for each team can help pay wages, which would be one reason to help keep good players in La Liga...

    Forlan's gone. Deal agreed to move to San Siro. Aguero and Mata left our league too this year. I bet that Nilmar and Rossi are gone next season. Any good players left in La Liga asides those on Barcelona and Real Madrid? Jeez.

    Real Madrid (old thread)

    You're probably right. I'm just saying every little bit helps. I think of it this way. If each house represents a team within a historic district, and the district representing the league. And if two homes collected all the money while the others deteriorate, then the historic district will...

    Real Madrid (old thread)

    Honestly though, and I know we all said this last year, Madrid should be blowing teams out by 8 pts every game with the squad they have. They have 2 first teams that can place 2nd and 3rd in La Liga without a blink. A draw would be a shame. Which brings up the fact that beating Real Madrid is...

    Gerard Piqué

    Yeh, with Alves - Masch - Abidal - Adriano at back, it's not bad, but man, we're risking it at CB.

    Mourinho's constant praise of RM fans and how he's really fighting for them is a joke. Seriously, RM fans deserve better than his propagandas.

    Real Madrid (old thread)

    Uhhhhh... Didn't Rosell said Barça weren't filing a complaint? Perez and Mourinho really can't stand the fact that they are the cause of all these issues. They can't stop blaming others. I know RM has a great history of winning, but just because you can't win anymore, it's not the fault of...

    Frankly, Messi made a better impact on the Argentinean team this past World Cup than Ronaldo did for Portugal. Most goals if I can recall came off Messi shots or assists. As for Portugal, I only remember that lucky ball that bounced off Ronaldo's head. Anyway, but to Ronaldo's argument, I think...

    Gabriel Milito

    To add: Off loading dead weight also cuts down on paying salary for players we don't use. I rather pay a player that's playing second fiddle on our first team a little more than 5 players that are just watching from the bench. Granted, loans covers the salary of Keirrison and Henrique.

    Kiko Femenia

    I hope he's not another Keirrison or Henrique. Hopefully our new Prez & Co. are better at this sh*t than Laporta.

    Real Madrid (old thread)

    I use to think Real Madrid had the most expensive team, in terms of wages, but with their history alone, players will stay for peanuts (as Beast puts it) just to be on a team that has a great chance of winning La Liga and a CL title every year. It's the same reason why players want to go to...

    Thiago Translantara

    I find it hilarious how haters think we're trying to rip off every team out there. Hello, the only player we don't want to pay full price for is Cesc. Udinese is still getting a healthy sum.

    ROFL. That is the best f'n gif evah! K, about Thiago. Everyone can stop worrying now. Geez. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3bfR3RKdO0

    Jose Mourinho

    I've realize watching Mourinho manipulating the Real Madrid fans is like watching Fox News manipulating America. They make you believe that they are your friends. They say things to get people angry, to make them think the world is against them. At that point, they speak on your behalf, how they...

    Very true. You're right. And honestly, I'm sorta proud that we're taking our time. Hopefully it's because we're skillfully trying to get the best deals for carefully selected players. Btw, it's interesting what Guti came out and said today and what Gago said last week. Guti, today...

    Real Madrid (old thread)

    I have to give Real Madrid credit though on signing four players already while we've signed zero. But then again, we do take advantage of our youth system, while Real Madrid doesn't. Not an insult, just true. I guess the pressure to win does that, which we're getting now too this off season...
