Real Madrid Transfer Rumours

are you basing it on WHEN he was injured, or after his injury(while he was recovering)

higuain is their best striker and will always be that

messi even if deployed as a striker will float down and down until he is parallel with the midfield

kun is garbage, tevez is great but his attitude and milito is passed it

so there we go, higgy their only good option

even primadonna who knows one or two things about football didnt hesitate to put his son in law on the bench guess that gives us a tiny bit of clue who the best one is huh?

Depends, Messi is playing the same position he does in barcelona, which means he needs two inside forward on his left and right in support. Tevez and Aguero are both better in that role. Higuain can do good there as well. All and all, it depends what kind of team they are playing against.

kun is garbage? lol

let's not act as if Higuain is the world best forward either, its not the case.

Tevez is kinda similar to Messi too. I don't think Aguero is much of a CF so Higuain should start.

Seems like Jose is going back to the old formation style of 2-3-5

He needs another CB then lol

Ramos, Pepe and Carvalho as CB's ?

Albilol and Mateos.

^as backups

drenthe as lb

Arbeloa will probably backup Marcelo with Altintop maybe backing up RB.

Somewhere in the back of his drug filled mind, perhaps, but he wasn't a coach at all only a sideline cheerleader!!!

I don't know where you are getting your negative impression of Aquero. I like Higgy a lot, but to say he is world best is an exaggeration. Kun plus Higgy is a much better combination for us tha Benz and Higgy.

Mateos won't make squad!!!!

Mou wants nothing more to do with Drenthe. He won't make it to training camp.

No, At RB you still have Ramos, he will get playing time this year at both RB and CB. Coentrao will get most time at RB but he also will get some at LB. Marcelo will be starting LB but can also be used more forward occasionally. Arbeloa is the main reserve for both side. He is better defensively for laste in games. Altintop will only be used at RB in emergency situations. And then there is Nacho for emergency call-up.

Altintop will backup dimaria

more like our midfielders.

Yuri, see the thread Nick had re Altintop. Callejon is the winger back-up (left or right) although I think you will find Higgy or Aquero on wing at times as welland perhaps the odd time Ozil. Altintop naturalposition is midfield. So he is back-up there although he is varsatile enough toplay anywhere on right side.

No, we play an asymmetric 4-2-3-1 the guy on the right's job is not the same as the left. The left is an inside forward while the right side is more of a real winger, altintop in only a midfielder in that he is a traditional winger (who are midfielders) he cant really play in the middle at the level of lass or khedira at all. He shares alot of charectristics with di maria, he is a very hard worker, has good dribbling skills, non stop machine and has a cannon of a foot. Callejon can not do that job at all. WHy does everyone think he s backing up khedira? Watch Bayern vs Lyon, Manchester United and Intermilan from last year so you can get a better idea of what altintop does.

Mourinho doesn't really care for set positions etc. If he thinks a combination of players could win him a game he will field them. It may even contend Altintop as a striker (joke!) as long as the plan works

there u have a point thats why i ask my self, what will be our formation, how will we play, and will be able to attack against barca, because all the matches in the clasico series were played in a twemporary kind of feeling try to come up with whateevr was possible

Sahin would certainly suit Mourinho if he decides to keep the same tactics vs Barca.

same tactics? which one?

We played with 3 DM's but none of them could pass the ball out. If we say swapped Sahin for Khedira/Alonso it may work.

Our long , long meaningful thread was about that Oh well, RIP ' Get Nuri Sahin thread' :lol!:

Maicon's agent landing in Madrid next week.

The problem with Marca breaking out a rumor is that it's never factual, but a suggestion from their part. Kinda like tmo saying he wants Essien.... oh wait

Marca is very cheap recently and I mean the content
