ALONSO IS ON REAL'S HIT LIST

 

LIVERPOOL face a summer battle to hold on to Xabi Alonso after Real Madrid targeted the midfielder.

 

The Anfield ace is part of a batch of new players - including Arsenal's Ashley Cole - on the Madrid shortlist. Alonso nearly moved to the Spanish giants in 2004 but a £12m deal was scrapped by then coach Jose Camacho at the last minute.

 

 

cant believe he would want to leave us to join that circus

According to press reports Real want to give the club a new face.

 

On their wishlist:

Ibrahimovic (top-priority for 45 Mio Euros)

Podolski (1. FC Köln)

A. Cole (Arsenal)

Alonso (Liverpool)

Poulsen (Schalke 04)

Raul Garcia (Osasuna)

I'm sure they do want him, He's one of the best in the world in his position.

 

Pity they won't get him. he'd rather play with the champions of Europe.

I find it strange if it's true he even considered going there. Isn't he Basque? Thought they hated everything related to Madrid...

 

Anyway, I'm sure he'll tell them to f***k right off.

On another note then, how much would it cost to tempt you into letting him go? 30 million? more?

depends on how much it'd cost to get Lampard to replace him............

yep, 30M and they can have him.

 

Noone is worth that, in todays game, unless they bring with them guaranteed merchandising worth the same amount.

Wasn't there a story about Xabi being sat in a Cafe, whilst still at Real Sociedad , and being asked about a move to Franco's Madrid, and him saying "No chance"?

f*** that. there's no amount of money.

 

 

I agree, but head before heart there comes a time where money could get to the figures where you could replace one world class player and bring in three for the same sum.

 

 

I'd hate for him to leave and I don't think there' a grain of truth in it as such, just interested to know what it would take to get people to budge a bit.

I read the article in Spanish and it sounds to me like a lot of bulls****. They say that he wouldn't cost more than 15 million euros, less than what Liverpool paid for him :D.

 

Xabi Alonso was about to join them before coming to Liverpool but Camacho rejected the option cause he wanted a Makelele type of midfielder, not a playmaker.

 

There are many Basque players who have played for Real Madrid. One thing is that Basque supporters hate Real Madrid and another that Basque players want to play for Real MAdrid where they are going to get paid more money and have a chance of winning medals.

...retiring to live the rest of their lives in medalled shame, dying, and then going to hell.

 

Sure the point is moot, he's not going, if he does he'll be dead to us all anyway.

 

Franco, betrayal of the Basque people, and eternal damnation aside, anybody who runs away to join that circus needs their head examined.
