Rebuilding Madrid, One Pass at a Time - The Transfers, Rumors & Lies Thread

That Endrick kid people bad mouth is mighty fiesty on that right side...

He's also free which allows us to concentrate money on a possible midfield addition

 

Valverde on the right side of the diamond, Bernardo Silva next to Tchouameni in the Modric role, and Jude as an advanced CM.

 

People see a few clips and go crazy but the amount of possession he loses on every play means he will go back to the bench as soon as he comes here. And I dont want that for the guy. He should stay on loan and get playing time at his age. Just not ready.

 

If he is good enough to start and captain for a whole season for a Guardiola team, he is definitely good enough for our midfield.

 

Bernardo under Flick will be a headache for us next season.

 

Profile we need from City would be Rodri if he can stay healthy. With Silva leaving for free, City might not want to lose Rodri too unless there's an offer above the market price.

Looks like Stiller was mediocre in both games Stuttgart lost to Porto in EL. He struggled in big CL games last season too like against PSG when they cornered him from left side making him misplace passes with right foot.

 

I wish we had bought Olise. Would’ve solved the right wing issue. Such a phenomenal player and steal for Bayern.

 

Considering we play a 433 almost always, it’s crazy that we’ve not bought a left footed right winger since Bale.

 

Vinijr would go
Flo care more about his reputation

 

The club sold stars before. Why are you adamant they wouldn't now? Its a world cup year too, if they are replaced Florentino won't mind.

 

Flo saw Ronaldo as a Calderon signing. Bale and Benzema were his favorites. He hasn't sold any other superstar. Also getting superstars has been harder for him with state clubs around. Had to wait forever for Mbappe to join and Vini was developed into superstar over the years signing him at 16 and joining the club at 18. So I don't see him selling either Mbappe or Vini this summer.

 

Do you think Ronaldo would have stayed a bit longer if he was Flo's signing?

 

Yea. Even 2013 contract renewal was complicated. Flo put in the effort to pacify Ronaldo after "I am sad" incident because he was in his absolute prime. By 2018 he was totally done with CR7 despite him leading the attack that had just won 4 CLs in 5 years.

 

Bernardo Silva or Rodri on a 2 year deal wouldn’t be a bad deal. Gives us time to find the right player for the role and add experience in our midfield, which we lack.
Both could be our Pirlo (what Juve got in 2011)

 

We should save Pedri from CL failure. Let him win CL once in his career.

 

We had a look at him at 15 and rejected him

 

8 years later and we are now in desperste need of his qualities. I know realistically that it is not possible. But would love to have him

 

Example Mo Salah in advanced years and his sad dip. Bernardo won't come here with fresh legs.

Rodri as well as good as he has been upon return.

 

Ok boys, get ready. This thread is going to be carpet bombed for the next few weeks

 

We’ll hear the usual bullshit to deflect the piss poor season and some casuals in the squad turning up when they feel like it.

 

******** that to Silva.

Rodri for 30 million most, I’d accept.

 

Season over by mid April. Now club will lead discussion towards next coach and signings through local media.
