The SixtyFive Million Euro Man - The New Welcome Kaka Thread

Well, i can be wrong but in my opinion Mourihno isn't too worried about Kaka injury. His work will be easier without Kaka.

In my opinion, one of the most interesting things of the pre-season (and the first games of the season) was to see how Mourinho was able to fit Kaka and Ronaldo in the same starting 11, and still have a balanced team (from Mourinho point of view), because both players are really bad defending.


Without Kaka, he "only" has to worry to find the best place to Ronaldo, a place where Ronaldo can show all his talent, without affect on the balance of the team.


VdV, Canales, Granero or Khedira are more team players than Kaka, and Mourinho will have easier to build a balanced team with those players.

Some newspapers (AS) are speaking about Real Madrid signing Ozil after Kaka injury, but in my opinion Mourinho at this moment is more worried about sign defenders to reinforce the team than sign Ozil. Even he will be also happier with a new striker than with Ozil.

I like Ozil, but his signing fit more with the typical Florentino signing, the new "star" player of the last World Cup, that he wants to sign although we don't need him (or we need reinforce more other positions).

 

But since this is a Spanish team, you can expect that the best news sources will be in Spanish so you gotta figure out how to use google or chrome translation AND go ahead, learn a little Spanish to get by. We have some posters who are generous with their time and translate radio shows for our benefit and sometimes they do translate bits of articles. But we certainly can't demand that of them.

Welcome to the forum.

 

@ the Brazilian doctor. I hate it when people make mistakes or intentionally hide things and than say oh i have 55 years of experience like somehow that makes you immune from making mistakes. You took advantage of Ricky (and he let them do it) because you wanted him to play for your country, simple as that. You probably thought the risk to his health was worth taking. Now saying that oh because of my super duper doctor skillzz Kaka was able to play will prove what exactly? Give me a fecking break.

I genuinely think that Ricky is telling the truth, that he actually thought that the pain in the knee could be because of the groin problem, although Ricky just said the other day that he went on vacation pain free which is why he didn't feel the need to call our Doctors. Anyway, i bet the Brazilian mega crack doctor knew or at least had an inkling and yet kept it from Ricky and us. Why did he not tell Ricky to have the knee looked at? His job was done. Brazil were out. He was our problem now. The Brazilian FA was not going to foot the bill. We just did. That guy is now lecturing everyone on medical ethics.

Ricky needs to take some responsibility too. He knew things were wrong and he should have gotten in touch with our medical staff. The fact that he spent 3 weeks or whatever with ligament damage is just not right. We made an investment with him and its our right to know about his physical well being.

Has anyone else noted how last year the 2 madrid sport dailies were all Ricky is our lord and savior and in the last few days they have started to treat him like anyone not called Ronaldo?

 

The dutch did the same with Robben. It was obvious he was injured, but they sent him to Doctor BBQ and Icecream to make him play in the World Cup.

Bayern are furious and say that Robben is in a broken down state.
