Strikers at Real Madrid

[New York Red]

Ronaldo, Robinho, Raul, Cassano, Batista and now RVN?

 

Who is supposed to be leaving?

 

Could we be interested in any of them? What about Fat Ronnie on a short term contract?

[Hassony]

I'd f***ing love Cassano here. Madder than Bellamy but double the talent - arguably the most naturally gifted Italian since Baggio.

you mean the most overrated player since totti

[R A Softlad]

Del Piero and Totti both have more natural talent than Cassano. And unlike the little brat, have actually managed to make something of it.

 

And because he's not playing in Italy (or from south of Rome) he's overlooked for the national squad.

[growler]

With Zidane retired, and Raul not scoring since 1999, and baptista playing in midfield it gives them some flexibility I would think. Its like Kewell, Garcia, Pongo, Mellor, Fowler, Crouch, Bellamy for us?

They're supposed to be trying to offer Baptista to Arsenal in exchange for Cesc. The only player I would want joining us would be Robinho, the others are either past their best (Ronaldo and Raul) or completely over rated (Cassano and Baptista).

 

Mind you, if they offered a straight swap of RVN for Crouch and Bellamy then I would bite their hands off.

And Robinho isn't?

And Robinho isn't?

 

 

You may have a point that his reputation is perhaps bigger than he deserves, but at his age he has more than enough time to develop into a superstar - and if it was a straight choice of him, Garcia or Kewell playing off the striker who would you rather have?

[Guest Anders Honoré]

Think it has more to do with him being fairly sh*te since coming to Real.

 

Playing abroad never stopped Di Matteo from playing for Italy.

and the fact that he was about a stone and a half overweight last season

Garcia every time.

 

If we're 3-0 up I'd go for Robinho.

[Maldini]

Robinho is f*cking sh*t

[stressederic]

Madrid best hold on to some of their strikers after all, after they only managed to beat Plymouth 1-0 last night via a 75th minute penalty.

 

Ok it was only a friendly, but when you've got Guti, Woodgate, Cassano, Portillo, Solado, Helguera etc all playing you'd expect something a tad better.

[jfogarty]

They have added another, Real confirm signing of Horseface. On their official website now.

 

15million euros the fee, around £10.2million.

 

Fergie obviously got his £ and ? mixed up when agreeing to the deal. Silly drunk

[Bootle Buck]

Fergie's influence once again runs off a player Utd can't afford to lose.

 

Stam

Beckham

Keane(although it worked out OK)

RVN

garcia,every time .
