Nice going forward (Marcelo was rumoured to have sign for Juve). Who's going to defend, though? I personally think this is move will either be the making (Ballon d'Or worthy) or the breaking of him tbh. People here have complained about inconsistency, so imagine the Madrid crowd. The grass isn't always greener, just ask Coutinho.

Players either leaving, on the wrong side of 30 or can't buy game time. There are a number of clubs that are more appealing than Real as of now. Half of the Premiership's defenders have better end product than Willian, so that's neither here nor there. Me neither. The signs were there long before he left and he was fortunate last year with the CL masking over their torrid league campaign. Too many people think Perez throwing money at the wall with Zidane at the helm will bring success. I could wager us doing better than Madrid, if we have a transfer window & they spend within their means (£250-300m~).

They are buying promising & potential trouble if rumours are to be believe. Going from Pedro & Willian to Lucas & Asensio isn't exactly a notable step up.

I just don't get this stance with players nowadays. Real have become at more notable force in Europe again, but just look at their league position in the last decade. There are certainly other clubs that are more appealing/more likely to offer a threat on all fronts next season. Real throwing money at a wall doesn't guarantee much.

I'm sure Zidane returning is the deciding factor now. He wouldn't be pushing the transfer had Mou or Conte been appointed.

The latter has a play off game to worry about

I seriously hope we've seen the last off him. It wasn't a wise move & he's only going to get worse.

Another award for his send off. Now, lets end it where it all began (EL trophy).

Even more reason to laugh at their logic.

Just have to hope that ban is postponed

The best of the worst [emoji1]

Still not getting decisions, I see.

Everton doing their bit

Our start probably has more to do with it in the end.

Higs misses a sitter. Send him back to Italy ASAP

I agree. He doesn't have the pace for a FB anymore.

Stronger line up than expected. Lets get the point that should secure third place

I'm just saying that stat is of little relevance. He was one of those blamed for their WC qualification failure, so that could be brought up too. Only worried about his club performances considering the standard. Pleased to see him seemingly end the season in some form.

He's playing in CONCACAF

Can't really argue with the extension, but he needs to be phased out of the starting XI by this time next year. However, I don't get the sudden chance in offering longer contracts for over 30's.

Kepa said he watched footage, so that's most likely the case.

Exactly. So many GK's don't do that

Kepa is the saviour!

Our greatest triumph was on pens against Germans. Lets hope history repeats itself

People actually wanted Higs on. Give me a break! Lets hope we can get over the line
