Subs:
Iker: Don't care, some Castilla guy
LB: Marcelo, Torres, Heinze
Ramos: Torres
Albiol/Pepe: Metzelder, Garay, Ramos
Lass: MDiarra, Gago
Kaka: Gago, Sneijder
Robben: Raul, Higuain, Sneijder
CRonaldo: Marcelo, Sneijder, Raul
Higuain/Benz: Raul, Ruud, Negredo
IN:
Do not want Ribery. At all. Wouldn't even swap him and Robben straight. I think Ribery will just not fit well into the team. Also don't like his personality. All in all: He's one Galactico too much. I think Robben will flourish with the new midfield/striker talent. And I think he's perfectly capable of adopting to and shining in Pelligrini's system.
And where the hell would you guys fit in Xabi or Silva that some of you want so much?
IMO we just need a left back. But there are seemingly no good leftback options, at least not from what I've read here. Heinze or Marcelo will be fine IMO, they would rotate depending on needs (if we want to play defensively or offensively).
OUT:
Huntelaar: don't think he has a future here, but I think he has a bright future elsewhere, possibly EPL.
Guti: Not realistic, but I think he's more of a burden than an asset.
Salgado: Gone already
VDV: Sorry buddy. Never impressed me.
Javi Garcia: Lol. Try playing in Segunda.
Ruud: Possibly if anyone wants to take on his wage bill. Otherwise a good backup, but never a starting material aside from injury/suspension problems.
Drenthe: Has no future in RM. Maybe in the Greek league or something where he can pwn noobs until he's confident.
Full squad list:
Iker, SomeGK, Marcelo, Torres, Heinze, Ramos, Albiol, Pepe, Metz, Garay, Lass, MDiarra, Gago, Kaka, Sneijder, Robben, Higuain, Raul, CRonaldo, Benzema, Ruud, Negredo.
Adds up to 22 players + some random promising castilla guys.
Of course, this is totally unrealistic, as it seems that we will buy even more players, and who know's what Raul's role will be. Le sigh.
