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

Props to Endrick for putting in the work. I bet he’s also going to get good minutes at the WC especially if Thiago continues to look like a donkey up front like he did against Egypt.

 

​

This is probs an unrealistic team for next season but I’d really like to see how something like this would play out under a coach who won’t let players randomly roam where they like (looking at Jude).

Endrick being primary back-up at ST and RW or starting ST if Vini leaves.

We need to sign an actual RW whoever it is, Endrick shouldn’t be expected to play there primarily because he’s obviously a natural striker.

Vini

Mbappe - Guler/Paz - Olise

Jude - Tchou

Carreras - Gvardiol - Rudi - Trent

Tibo​

 

Tomas Gonzalez-Martin (El Debate) claiming that Olise wants RM but Bayern will only sell for €255m. Perez's option B is either Vitinha or Joao Neves.

This Mickey Mouse reporter had previously said that if RM sign Calafiori (wanted by Jose according to Romano and Valentine) he will automatically start over Carreras.

 

West Ham need to raise around £150 million(€173 millions) in player sales in order to balance the books.
According to The Athletic, Mateus Fernandes, Crysencio Summerville, Alphonse Areola, Konstantinos Mavropanos, and Jean-Clair Todibo are all expected to leave the club.

 

I like your team, but Fede probably needs a spot. Maybe Fede for Jude, and Mbappe/Vini/Jude/Olise are 4 players for 3 positions (assuming Olise is even a possibility).

 

Olise isn't coming.


It will be Fed, Endrick and Arda sharing minutes at RW but I think we are assuming alot about the formation. 442, with Vini/Mbappe/Endrick/Ganzalo for the strker position is the way I would go, then just find who best complimetns Vinicius moving forward.




However, very clever of Flo to announce the move only hours before the vote for President but Bayern did not waste alot of time issuing a response indicating Flo had not yet made any attempt at a transfer and would have no such opportunity

 

Junior as a CF? I think having the 2x Pichichi there makes more sense. While his positioning makes my stomach turn, the Brazilian has a persistent itch to go to the corner flag and unnecessary dribble players + his finishing is umm..pretty sh!t

Jude at 8? He clearly doesn't want to play there..

 

Two issues I have with that.

One is a double pivot of Fede and Tchou just doesn’t bang for me, just stylistically, neither have enough finesse to offset each other. I think Fede with a Xabi Alonso type player as a double pivot would be great, or Tchouameni with a centre mid who’s comfortable on the ball like Jude (or Vitinha, Barrios etc. obviously both unrealistic).

And, Jude as an attacking mid means both Arda and Paz have no spot, or are pushed to the right wing which I’d hate to see. We might as well just play with two strikers if we do that.

 

Well if we wanted to actually do that we would move Jude because he has been what imbalances our midfield.

Tchou and Fede work their asses off and need someone with them to create and help deep.

Jude doesn't care for this and wants to play up the pitch and near the opponent's box.

 

It was Vitinha/Joao Neves until Mendes told the club they don't want to leave

Then it magically became Olise until Hainer told Perez to not waste his time

Could it be.. Lukaku?

Entertaining AF

 

Pretty certain the reporters are soon going to claim the €150m guy is Julian Alvarez and Mourinho requested him. Atleti will laugh at the news. The next day, the exclusives will come out that it is in fact Enzo and Jose has excellent an relationship with the teaboys at Stamford Bridge who will help facilitate the deal.

 

Just sign Wharton and Mateus Fernandes and stop embarasing yourself....if this guy spends 100 on Enzo

 

Bro, do you want Wharton or Stiller? Make up your mind.

 

Now Wharton and Fernandes ,I will be happy with Stiller too but the rumors about him are dead so he isn't coming

 

So maybe tomorrow it'll be Hjulmand and Kees Smit..

 

Wharton

 

I would sell tchou and get mateus. But tchou is too much of a mourinho player to be sold.

 

Tchouameni was 10x the player at Monaco than Fernandes is with West Ham. Not an exaggeration.

 

Not always, but yeah that's my point.

 

I actually wouldn't mind a Gonzalo-Endrick rotation at the top. But Im not sure Mourinho would go for something like that. They are both too inexperienced for his liking.
