A summary of his interview in the Diario AS: Vicente, you have seen many games, do you remember something similar to the Manchester game? DB: Not too much. I recognize that it is the huge thing that i have seen in a soccer field. The scene was incredible, the public exemplary and the game had phases of all the possible profiles. Soccer is a blessing and what we saw in old trafford was an example. Well, you must know that Ferguson or Beckenbauer are speaking great about the Real Madrid, team that you have built? DB: I thank for the praises, but we are going to be cautious. We will not undergo any excess of relaxation. I have proposed it. And about Ronaldo what you say? Db: We have said always that we are very happy with him. He is a very special player, his teammates now that and we now that. We are very happy with his perfomance. And Beckam and his possible sign? DB: I only will said one thing about that. I have followed Beckam since he was 17 years old and he is a extraordinary player with a great quality. He is a extraordinary player nobody doubt about that. it didn't surprise to me what he did in the half an hour that he was in the field. What left to do to this Real Madrid be able to make dream all Europe? DB: We have a very good team with many variations and very big players. In addition, when Raul return we will be strongers. The Real Madrid is always forced to offer the maximum and we will fight to win win la liga and the CL until the end.
This whole thing is lame if you ask me. European Soccer has become one of the most unfair leagues in world. Soccer is in a lot of danger, especially with teams like real Madrid around. Letting them play in La Liga and the CL this year is the biggest JOKE in the history of sports since letting the American Basketball (DREAM TEAM) play in the Olympics. Real Madrid has finally sold all their pride for Ronaldo T-shirts!! Mistreating some of their old players (like El Moro) that helped them win CLs JUST LAST YEAR! Selling shirts is more important then playing for your club I guess. I never wanted RM to become the NY Yankees but it sadly did :-( And before you start bashing me I was born in Madrid, and always been a RM fan even my whole family are real Madrid Fans. BUT I am frankly sick of RM and looking to join the Real Betis side!
Well, you are totally wrong. 1 - Manchester United is the team with more money. Why did they pay more money for Ferdinand this year that the Real Madrid for Ronaldo?. Because they thought that was better for their team. The same for Milan, Juventus, Inter, Lazio, etc. All those team has wasted more money in the last 5 years in players that the Real Madrid. Even the Barcelona has wasted more money than the Real MAdrid. It's not the Real MAdrid fault that Zidane, Figo and Ronaldo want to come to the REal Madrid. And that they played very good. And that some of the players that have singed other teams - like Barcelona (Riquelme, Saviola, Rochemback, etc) - haven't play good. 2 - The Real Madrid has won two of the three last Champions leagues (1998,2000) without Figo, Ronaldo and Zidane. In this year other teams had great player (Rivaldo, zidane, Vieri, Figo, Sevchenco, Ronaldo, Nesta, etc) and they didn't won the CL. 3 - Morientes hasn't never been "Pichichi" in la liga in his six year with the Real Madrid. Raul isn't a pure striker, and he have been "Pichichi" two times. Guti that is a midfielders made almost the same goals that him the last year. Currently Guti and Portillo are over him. He has lost his position in the team. 4 - The Real Madrid is trying to sing the best players in the world and ormally the best players, are the most famous sell more t-shirts. Or Zidane, Figo and Ronaldo are bad player. Zidane is the best player that have seen in the last fifhteen years. And i am have the privilege to see him all the weeks in the Bernabeu. 4 - Now, seems that maybe Beckam will come to the team. If he come to the team. He will lost money like Ronaldo did. Because he will have to win the same that Zidane, Figo, Ronaldo and Raul - there is a salary cap in the team. And he would lost part of the image's Rights. He could win more money in his team,or in the Milan for example. The Real will offer to him be in the team with the best history playing with great players. But no more money than other big teams.
