This is a serious Real Madrid post

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

Hola chicas!
The past couple of weeks have been extremly hard for all of us, between Florentino ruining everything once again, the drama that followed up the big spendings to the recent secret post, we can seriously say we got it pretty bad.

Though, with all that, it's time we'll sit down a bit and have a talk about all this: share with us your frustrations, your thoughts, predict some line ups, talk about who might be leaving us, who might join us soon, tactics, post some pics aswell for all I care! But yeah let's have a chat.

Feel free to join us, even if you're not a madrilista :)

Like, I know we've been spending loads of money recently, but I would die of happiness if we got Maicon. And Garay needs to stay y/y?

Plus I know this is lol.com but... http://goal.com/en/news/12/spain/2009/06/14/1323945/real-madrid-offer-inter-higuain-plus-cash-for-ibrahimovic

CAN'T THEY STOP THE PIPITA RUMORS

REAL ALREADY CONFIRMED HE'S NOT GOING ANYWHERE
UGH

[ema-load.livejournal.com]

i'm worried about higuain the most. he was one of the best rm players this past season and it seems that he'll be pushed to the bench again. it's so disappionting and frustrating. i hope he'll play more than raul at least.

i just read on the other comm that robben and sneijder are getting a lot of offers so they'll probably go? along with the other dutchies?

i'm kinda excited that villa might join us - and feeling guilty about it, too.

the defenders i read we might sign: maicon, albiol and clichy. but god knows how much of this is true. i like maicon very much, but we already have sergio on rb position, and i don't want him as a cb. and i want us to keep garay!!

[oui-janine.livejournal.com]

Clichy said no no no. I'll find the article. Here! (http://www.goal.com/en/news/11/transfer-zone/2009/06/15/1326304/arsenals-gael-clichy-rejects-real-madrid-rumours)


This makes me a bad Real fangirl, but omg am so pleased. Arsenal's defence is even worse than Reals. They need him. Plus he needs to stay with the rest of the France NT.

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

I would also like to talk about people abandoning the club btw.

[ema-load.livejournal.com]

dutchies

maybe heinze and metze(?)

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

Also, thinking about it now, if we get Villa then who the fuck will get benched? Raul is still captain and fuck if Gonza will suffer because of it

[ema-load.livejournal.com]

i'm hoping raul on the bench, but i know it's not gonna happen

[c0rrine.livejournal.com]

did you guys know you won the u18 club world cup a few days ago?
the final was against barca haha you guys won 2-1. babies from bremen and boca were involved in the competition too, idk why no one has mentioned it

and i just read that you guys just got a 76mil loan...ha

[ema-load.livejournal.com]

yep

it's kinda sad that our cantera is so good and it's not appreciated at all

[carmelejos.livejournal.com]

I really hope Raúl will be benched more often, and I was happy when Pellegrini said (more like hinted) he would do that. But I can't really believe Perez is listening to Pellegrini when making bids for players and in that same interview it was said that he would...

[shadow-sea.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think it might actually happen. Jorge Valdano hinted that it it will:

The new arrivals will be given priority, but Raul is going to have the same opportunities as the rest of his team-mates, Raul's football is more about statistics than anything else and he has earned the right to continue. We'll see what role he plays this season, he is the captain and a smart man. He has the maturity to deal with whatever comes his way.

[c0rrine.livejournal.com]

oh and one of the real madrid directors has said that barca have placed "unmatchable" bids on villa so maybe they're giving up on that too? i was gonna make a post about it but i'm too lazy

or maybe i will

http://goal.com/en/news/12/spain/2009/06/16/1327478/jorge-valdano-real-madrid-cannot-match-barcelonas-bid-for

goal.com says 50mil + bojan (on loan) and caceres would be part of the deal

but sport says its 40 mil plus caceres, even though valencia wanted bojo haha

[oui-janine.livejournal.com]

Villa to replace Eto'o huh?


I am ambivalent tbh.

[floatingcupcake.livejournal.com]

i read about Arbeloa going to Real. i don't want this to happen. :(

[carmelejos.livejournal.com]

I don't think it will happen tbh

[carmelejos.livejournal.com]

Next season I'm going to watch less 'Pool games and instead I'm going to watch something else. But I'm torn between Argie football (<33333) and following our cantera because I think all those comments about how we don't pay attention to them kind of made me feel obliged to...

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

WATCH BOTH
Argie league ♥

[miselemeas.livejournal.com]

Just reading the article in the Times this morning about the fire sale: the likes of Robben, Huntelaar, Drenthe, Van Der Vaart & Van Nistlerooy all for sale.

Seriously no club with players of that caliber in its squad should be selling or "getting rid".

I don't know whether it could be because of fresh beginnings, money issues? because of the transfers of Ronaldo and Kaká or part of a bargaining tool/bait for more of their targets (Ribery, Villa, Alonso etc)...

Still......it's awful that these players could be gone from Real Madrid in the summer.

[ema-load.livejournal.com]

it sounds awful, but we have like 3 or 4 players for some positions and keeping them would make no sense.

[tasheila.livejournal.com]

what secret post?

my favorite real madrid player says hi:
(http://tinypic.com)

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

Last secrets post had a RM/Cron overloads

Oh Michael :(

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

Also guys... we have no 3 defensive midfielders and probably only one spot on the XI (depends if Valdano will play a defensive style or attacking style)

Who do you think will get the spot more often? Lass, Diarra or Gago?

[ema-load.livejournal.com]

lass, at least in the beginning

diarra is awesome but who knows if his form will be the same as before

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

hm

[carmelejos.livejournal.com]

IA ;)

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

I do hope I don't come up as a bitchy person because of the whole deserting club thing. I seriously don't understand how you can abandon your club

[ema-load.livejournal.com]

i don't think you'r bitchy, but that's maybe because i feel the same way you do.:) i'm not mad or anything, i just don't understand.

[malinowy.livejournal.com]

Not a madridista, but... I just read RM are trying to get rid off nine players. I really understand why would RM want to see some of them leave, but I have understood Robben was rather great last season, so it seems so funny RM wants to see him leave. Of course, Ronaldo is there to cover his spot, but still. These Dutchies seem like they´re made of glass, but I´d also feel really bad if Van Nistelrooy was sold when his season was what it was. When fit he is a world class scorer after all. (Okay, personally, why I care about Ruud so much is that I don´t want him to go to Tottenham, because for some reason he is one of my favourite players and Tottenham is just no.) And Diarra, isn´t he awesome when he is fit too? Seriously, RM has way too much good players. I feel bad for them if they have to leave because Perez is building the new Galacticos. And I know Raúl is club icon and all, but he really should be benched every once in a while, with Higuain being brilliant scorer and the future being his. Also, I feel really bad for the youth system players who work so hard, but might never make it to the first team. They are there for a reason after all and most likely dream of being in the staring XI one day and then they see someone has come to the club with big money and maybe takes the spot they could have gotten. Not judging, just saying I feel bad for them. I know there are lot of talented players and I´d love to see them whenever I happen to watch Real Madrid play.

I have to say I admire every single Madridista who keeps defending and loving the club with all this happening. That´s being a great supporter, through good and bad. :)

(Also, before this Sevillista leaves the Gooner half of her would like to say that keep your hands off of Sagna. He can´t leave Arsenal. End.)

[oui-janine.livejournal.com]

lol, I was the only Real fan who when the Clichy rumours came up, was like NOOOOOOOOOOO! :D

[tanaaz.livejournal.com]

At this point, I don't even care who comes because I can't do anything about it. All I can do is support the club. I know Iker, Raul, and Sergio are safe. But, I just don't want them to touch Higuain. That is one of my main cocerns.

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

He won't touch Gonza, there won't be any strikers left then
Ruud= we dunno in what state he is
Klaas-jan: I don't think he's staying
Saviola: not staying
Raul: yeah right

[jetsinthesky.livejournal.com]

i don't have a la liga team. i sway back and forth between barcelona and RM because they both have players i respect. but when it comes to actually following a team, i still have a lot to learn about this league.

i love the new signings and i know that i will be paying more attention to RM now to see how these players interact with each other.

one thing, yes, i am disappointed by the way the transfers are handles but i don't understand the backlash on the team itself. why the hate on the players in the team? they are certainly not the ones dishing out the money. the club heads making their financial decision doesn't make the players horrible human beings, and therefor the team a horrible team. idk. maybe i don't know what i am talking about but ... maybe i do. people hate on chelsea for the same reason, because roman has the money. well, shit, does that make JT & Co. disgusting people? NO.


/rant.

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

I agree with everything you just said about the way things are handled! Hate the management for all I care (I do admit of disliking Chelsea's Management but I don't hate your players) but leave the club+team alone! there are not to blame here.

[carmelejos.livejournal.com]

I've just read the last two secrets posts (I had missed them, that says everything about how often I visit that comm) but just OMFG and WHAT?! and NO SHIT you people.
Just NO.

I think that 1 or 2 max. of those "secrets" are as god intended it. The rest it just very obvious or very ignorant and sometimes even just plain stupid.

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

Now you see why I'm mad!

[didi-ynwa.livejournal.com]

I think people are reacting worse to CR deal than Zizou one now because back then there was no economical crisis.

I just hope you`ll improve the whole squad not just the attack this time.

Real apparently put 9 players on the exit list!

[reddevil09.livejournal.com]

http://soccerlens.com/real-madrid-firesale-sneijder-huntelaar-robben-diarra-van-der-vaart-and-ruud-for-sale/30759/

SNEIJDER, HUNTELAAR, ROBBEN, DIARRA, van der vaart, Nistelrooy most of the dutch players most probably on the exit list!

Re: Real apparently put 9 players on the exit list!

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

Yupp *sighs*

[carmelejos.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid what it's going to be like if we don't win five fucking tripletes and solve world poverty because I hate all those nasty comments we're getting now but I can't even imagine what it's going to be like then.
Rest: see icon.

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

1) HAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAAHAHAHHAHAHA

2) Didn't you know everyone wants us to crash so they can laugh?

Arbeloa is totally leaving.

[c0rrine.livejournal.com]

GOOD WE'LL JUST GET GLEN JOHNSON AND HAVE 1 MORE ENGLAND INTERNATIONAL AND 1 LESS SPANISH INTERNATIOANL

[oui-janine.livejournal.com]

So, assuming Real buy some more people (esp defenders plz plz plz) who would you want to see come in?


I vote Alboobi (Albiol)for sure.

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

JUAN FORLIN PLEASE.

He's a great Argie defender that was already with us in Castilla but had a paper problems but we still have top priority on him

[ayres-4.livejournal.com]

Can someone tell me what will happen to Saviolita? :(

[anais-molko.livejournal.com]

All depends if he'll get sold for sure this time around, bb
The last 3 windows went downhill
