Very excited about this kid, last time we had a player with his characteristics was Ruuuuud Van Nistelroy ( huntelaar doesn’t count) hopefully he has a career as good as the Dutchie’s.
Falcao comparisons makes sense. Especially those acrobatic finishes on top of being clinical with his chances. Pre-injury Falcao was magic.
I can't see ZZ benching Benzema so I don't think he will get enough minutes to make a huge impact. I think he will do well off the bench though. Is it enough? Nope. We need starters
We also need players who can make the difference when they come in, not just starters. And we're getting Hazard en hopefully a top midfielder, so the starters are coming as well. To win trophees, we need a big squad with top players on the bench.
Nah man, gotta admire those luscious locks! Excited to see him locked up quickly. He is still young with a lot to prove but I like his mentality when I've seen him play. Seems tough as hell for his size and ready to seize any half chance that arises, like a good striker should. Here's to a long and fruitful career for him in Madrid!
Here's to a long and successful career with us. It's been a long time since we've had a viable alternative to Benzema and I hope both have monstrous seasons next year. One down hopefully a few more to go.
p.s: To bad we are selling Llorente. We could pull Ndombele, Llorente, Kroos midfield behind. Tons of creativity and work rate.
The Militao announcement was on March 14. We waited 82 days for the Jovic announcement. What a relief.
Zizu played CR7 as a striker supported by Benzema playing deeper role. As such you don`t need to bench Benzema. Jović playing as striker, while supported by Hazard and Benzema behind: Jović Hazard - Benzema Jović Benzema - Hazard This line-up is fantastic. But hey, don`t mind me and enjoy your inherent nihilism. Incredible really. Every fckin post is negative b.s.. If Flo brought Mbappe tomorrow you would find something negative to offer.
What impresses me the most is how cool he is in front of the goal or in general he has strong character. Cannot wait to see him play in white shirt.
If we had a striker like Jovic during the Copa Classico at the bernebeu we would have manita’ed Barcelona , I have no doubt about it. Should he keep progressing as he has been, and the addition of Hazard plus some goal scoring midfielders we’re looking like we’d be scoring goals with ease not seen since 5 years ago.
Technically, Eintracht Frankfurt gets to keep 70% and Benfica gets 30% of the transfer fee. So, Frankfurt gets 42 ME, 18 ME for Benfica. When you consider his buyout price from Benfica: They made 25 ME, and Frankfurt made 35 ME from selling him on. Benfica actually made a lotta money for doing practically nothing. Smart business on their part, considering they had written him off as a flop. www.espn.com/soccer/soccer-transfers/story/3867879/real-madrid-announce-signing-of-jovic%3fplatform=amp
For those interested in seeing our new guy in action soon: Serbia plays Ukraine and Lithuania on Friday and Monday respectively. They are Euro qualifying matches so they are meaningful games.
This is great. I don’t know how he will turn out, I personally prefer Felix, and there aren’t lots of quality goalscorers readily available, but you can’t argue with how we are actually going about addressing the team’s needs right now. It’s also not a totally ridiculous price in relation to the current market. Couldn’t ask for much more.
Ayyyyyyyy……… Jovic in the house!!! I'm hype!!! Nice to see us making important additions early in the window. Hoping to see lots of goals from him in the coming years. Serbian Falcao...…. me gusta.
We could've got Felix, Sane, you name it, but at the end of the day we had to sign a top CF, someone to put it in the back of the net, that was THE priority, and I'm glad it's done. Hopefully he lives up to the expectations.
I like this guy and I'm expecting him to be a good signing for the club. It's really good for him to have Modric here. It will make it so much easier for him to acclimatize to the club and country. They say he'll live at Modric's place in the beginning.
