Real Madrid Thread [2007-2008]

Ronaldo is probably worthy of a world record price though I doubt that even then Man U would sell him or Ronaldo would not want to leave.

Saying that though I have always thought that Robinho should be as good as Ronaldo, just doesn't seem to either play enough or play well enough when given his chance, whether this is down to the coach or the player I am currently undecided. Thats not to say he is a bad player just that I always expect more from him

tough tough game coming up.....I would be happy with a draw to be honest, if we win, and then we beat Athletic next week we are the champs....

 

[KingPaulV]

man gago sucks sometimes...its really frustrating

 

[Arnau]

gago sucks always.


congratulations for the liga

 

[KingPaulV]

Pipita!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Campeones!!! Campeones!!!!!!!!


Yes!!!!


edit: ok I got carried away is cause i saw the boys celebrating and stuff...but actually we still need to win next week and for you guys and villareal to lose, then if that's the case we would be champions officially....but in all honesty I dont think we're letting this one go....

Good game against Racing a great team, we did what we had to do and won. reminds me of the game against Athletic Bilbao game earlier in the season

 

[Jaouadinho]

Congratulations!

for what we arn't champions yet.

anyway on the game everyone was exceptional except for maybe robben and robinho drifted in and out of the game, and robben really needs to know when to release the ball, too selfish at times.

but everyone else was great, diarra was a rock hes starting to come back to fom, and sniejder had a monster of a game every thing went through him and some great running as well.

the defense was solid, a bit shaky at times on setpieces but thats one of racings strong points, i guess schuster might have a point when he says they are the best defense in the world and they certainley looked like it.

 

[Arnau]

for what we arn't champions yet.

xDDDDDDDDD.

 

[tim5303]

If we can't win the championship with a ten point lead with five games to go we deserve to be relegated rather than anything else.

Thankfully I can't see us dropping five points even if Villareal and Barca win all of their remaining games

 

[KingPaulV]

next week to be exact....hehe, if we win and you guys and Villareal fail to win, its on and we can break out the champagne and I can change my signature!....except that we got the harder game althought Deportivo is in excellent form right now....

dont worry i have to solution (read with doraemon voice) ... PARATARAXAAAAN (8) :

So that's what Ronaldinho has been doing, he and Deco must be real good by now.

Anyway good win again Racing and Higuain scored, infact he scored 2 goals in 2 shots but 1 was rightly disallowed. Still good to see him improve his finishing. Oh so close now and we could even win it next week although I don't think we will win it that week but the week after that than maybe we will. :Carlos*o:

Edit - About Gago, what is this some kind of joke? The kid ( yes kid he is young you know ) is IMO great and this season he has really shown it. I wouldn't trade him for anything. Also it seems like Robinho is still not match fit yet, he got tired pretty quick and looked a little slower than usual although it's expected after being out for so long. Still he did good but I'm sure he will get a lot better as he gets more fit to play. Also If anyone really thinks Robinho is not happy at all than just watch the celebreation from Higuain's goal.

celebrations are deceiving Soc, I know one thing, Robihno likes to feel important and I dont think he is feeling all that hot right now....but he should stay and keep improving with us he has the potential to be another C. Ronaldo, Messi etc....about Gago; did you watch the game? Yes, he has class i think he does, but he needs major development IMO, he gets left our of position alot and is still learning his way around the passes, he gives us too many ball still...remember we are Real madrid and excellence is not a plus is a requierement...I like him thought he has great upside IMO

I really doubt there is anything wrong with Robinho, after all most of the unhappy rumors came about from Sport so that should say enough but I really don't think he is unhappy. He is on the bench becuase he is sitll not 100% match fit and it showed vs Racing.

As for Gago, I think he is great and yes I did see the game. At the same time we should remember he is young but also a part of our core team for the future and I very much like him as I do with Higuain.

 

[justhammy]

Uhm, Gago has been our most consistent midfielder this season. He is superb!

 

[tim5303]

Personally would like to see Robinho in a Real shirt for many years to come. He has the skill to be one of the best players in the world, although it seems either he is not totally fit or he is still looking to regain some confidence.

 

[KingPaulV]

3-0 we beat Atheltic with very good football for a second week in a row now!...amazing, and if you add that Sevilla game and take away the Mallorca one that is almost a month of good football from the Lads...so I am happy something about this Schuster character that seems to be bringing the best out of what we got....

Too bad we were not able to proclaim ourselves chammpions this weeks, but we could be champions next week without even playing if Villareal lose or tie Getafe...if not we just have to win in Osasuna and it will be a wrap...

didnt watch the full match cause I was busy so I cant comment much other than that...Madridistas get the Champaigne ready, we are the champions of la Liga two years running!!

 

[MaestroZidane]

Indeed a good display by our team, and actually enjoyed watching saviola play. I wish he would stay with us next seaso . A great performance from beggining to end..... and casillas... man what a keeper.

This title is ours.. just gotta wait for the official announcement . Hala madrid!!

 

[justhammy]

Casillas again proved that he is out of this world!! He really is the best this season. Normally he was just behind Gigi, but this season....He is better!!

Saviola was just pure class yesterday!! He is superb!! Pepe, Ramos and Marcelo (in attack) were fantastic! Sneijder again showed that we dont need any other attacking midfielder. Guti was back to his best. Robinho is improving. Gago was the best in midfield. He is really becoming world class!! Raul worked his socks off and was unlucky not to get a goal!

Pipita made an instant impact on the game!! His cross for Robben's goal was just technicaly perfect!! And he had a well taken goal. Robben was also very good!!

Great game all in all!! Next week LA LIGA!!!

HALA MADRIDD!!

Looking forward to the Barca match Imagine the thoughts of cules the world over as they prepare to play us....with nothing to win! Maybe to save a little face, but that's it! They have no CL and no league And they have to visit us while we sing "Campeones, campeones....." Can't wait!

I hate you.

Enjoy it while you can...

 

[KingPaulV]

Well we are enjoying! fantastic.......I must say, I wanted Barca to win in Europe for Spain's sake, but now that I think about it......its ok they lost....the embarrasment its ginormous when they come play us in the Bernabeu.....Either Pasillo or aliron, either way its going to be painful I know...
