Hi friend! Yes, I think Jose should bet heavily on him. In these two seasons with Ancelotti at Real Madrid Isco has significantly improved his defensive performance, which together with his genuine quality of offensive aspects make him an absolutely enormous player. Before Isco was a great player whose big deficit was the defensive. Maybe too anarchic because it is the type of player who seems destined to be an artist with the ball than a player collectively committed to a team. But now it has completely changed and Isco is a very reliable player that perfectly adapt it to the technical requirements of Jose and could form a formidable pair with Eden. I put the video of yesterday where Isco says these words which appear in the link. Isco's words are since 1:30 in the video. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Translation from Spanish to English. Journalist. Well, Isco, what from now on what (you expect?). With injuries (from your teammates) you've been entered (on the team), it is true that you had lost the place (on the team), emotionally, personally, regardless of joy for this classification (to the next round of Champions League) , How do you feel with your role at Real Madrid ?. Isco. Well, it is true that cost me a good a little, but that's normal after so many months playing it everything and suddenly I stopped playing, and ... Journalist. Hurt? Hurt is the word ?. Isco. No ... do not hurt ... well ... not very happy, I believed I was doing a good job ... Anyway, the team is very strong, Real Madrid is very complicated, there is much competition and I believe that competition makes become better all. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (IMO) I think Isco has a very serious face when talking about his situation at Real Madrid that makes me think he may be angry about his situation at Real Madrid. Isco can have a level of Galactico in the near future, but in Real Madrid (especially with Florentino Perez) Spanish players have very difficult to find their place in offensive positions. With Real Madrid he plays as a midfielder, but with Spain he plays like N.10. and I think that's his best position. To me Isco is pure N.10. classic. A dreamlike player. Regards.

Arsenal, Man United and Chelsea on RED ALERT as Isco hints at Real Madrid exit. ISCO has made it clear he is extremely unhappy with the way things are going for him at Real Madrid.http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/438309/Isco-Man-Utd-Arsenal-Chelsea-transfer-news Yesterday Isco spoke after the game Real Madrid – Atletico de Madrid and he affirmed to be "“I am more than hurt, so I'm not very happy” " because of the way that Ancelotti has treated him. Yesterday and today in Spain it is said that he would have decided to leave Real Madrid this summer. I think Isco would be an option rather interesting and Real Madrid would ask for him between 28 and 32 million pounds as final price. (Isco would be a perfect option). To me Isco would be the best partner for Hazard. Regards.

Hello everyone! Win Premier League (virtually) at the home of Arsenal would be the colophon for this season (also lift the trophy in the face of the Reds). I think probably Jose will place again Zouma by Matic in midfield. Personally I love this option in this type of match because this approach totally free Fabregas so that he can play with total freedom. In addition, Zouma have to play so that he can be gaining more experience for the next season. In fact, if we win Arsenal on Sunday I think that is very likely that Zouma will be in our starting eleven the rest of the season. My doubt is in the place of N. 9. Despite Solanke has not played tonight against Everton with our U-21 I think is impobable that Jose bet on him in the starting eleven. I think Jose will bet on placing Hazard - Fabregas - Willian as false N.9 continuously exchanging their positions with Oscar behind them. Fabregas has occupied that position in Barcelona and he can occupy this place for an emergency. Although about this option I do not like too much. Even if I'm honest this approach drawing on paper I find it very difficult, but perhaps it is the best approach we can do for Sunday if Diego Costa, Remy and Drogba continue injured. Starting eleven: Courtois; Ivanovic; Cahill; John Terry ©; Azpilicueta; Zouma; Matic; Oscar; Willian; Hazard; Fabregas. Maybe. Courtois Cahill John Terry © Ivanovic Azpilicueta Zouma Matic Oscar Willian Hazard Fabregas About Solanke, I think that if we win Arsenal on Sunday, both Solanke, Nathan Ake (as Left-Back), Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Brown have to play the remaining games before the season ends. It makes no sense to have the best academy in England and Europe for not using our boys. These guys deserve a chance, and the last four / five games of the season can be perfect for them. It is the best scenario possible. It's now or never When we have won Premier League. Courtois Zouma John Terry © Azpilicueta Nathan Aké RLC Matic Fabregas Cuadrado Hazard Solanke Regards to ALL.

Despite the fact that am strongly in favor of signing Koke, I also I believe that Atletico Madrid is crazy asking for 44 million pounds for Koke. In fact, I trust that Koke will ask Atletico de Madrid to be sold him this summer for a lower price and the final price are between 20 and 30 million pounds, a price certainly more reasonable. As I said in the thread of transfers in general, yesterday Isco affirmed after the match against Atletico de Madrid that he had felt "hurt" with Ancelotti (and perhaps with some teammates) for as he had treated him in recent weeks and that he felt that he was not treated as he deserves. Yesterday and today the Spanish press are saying that Isco could have decided to leave Real Madrid this summer, and that Real Madrid would ask for him between 28 and 32 million pounds as final price. (incidentally, Isco would be a perfect option) Therefore Koke should have a final price very similar (IMO). Another very important factor: Everyone think that Simeone had fully decided to continue Atletico Madrid next season. Well, yesterday, after the match, Simeone surprised everyone and he decided not to return with Atletico Madrid players on the same bus (as he always does) and finally Simeone went away directly to their home in another car without warning anyone. Today they say in Spain that Simeone makes this a strong argument with his players, and maybe he is preparing his departure from Atletico Madrid this summer with this attitude. It is certainly strange that Simeone behave this way because he always attaches great importance to his group of players and he always tightly linked. If Simeone leaves Atletico de Madrid a lot of players were probably going to request a transfer to another team and Koke would be closer. Regards.

http://metro.co.uk/2015/04/22/chelsea-close-on-aymeric-laporte-transfer-adidas-will-help-them-5161718/ Laporte is another good option for our Centre-Back, although I prefer Varane ahead of any option, but this guy could be a perfect choice. The only problem is that his final price have to be 30 million pounds because Athletic Bilbao only accepts the price of the clause to any sale (Javi Martinez had to resort to an article in the Spanish law to pay only the amount you put in the clause and not pay additional taxes) and Athletic would not accept any of our players for lowering the final price because they only have players born or origin of the Basque Country. By the way, yesterday Isco spoke after the game and he affirmed to be "hurt" because of the way that Ancelotti has treated him. Yesterday and today in Spain it is said that he would have decided to leave Real Madrid this summer. I think Isco would be an option rather interesting. Regards to ALL.

Hi friend! I think Koke is the piece that we need for our team can function perfectly in midfield. Taking into account this, I would pay those 40 million because Koke we would be signing a versatile player capable of high performance in any position in midfield having the changing of Fabregas for the future for its youth. Koke is a player made for Mourinho as Matic or Makelele. Is better to pay a lot for a player if you consider that player would do fit your machinery. Anyway I think the figure can be lowered signing with other players. I just woke up and I have read in several newspapers in Spain it is almost certain that Luis Filipe return to Atletico Madrid for a little less money than we paid for him. To me it does not make me happy, but if we definitely bet on Ake as Left-back could be a good choice (but we must bet heavily on Ake or it would be meaningless). But again, sign Koke we are not incapable of signing Pogba, Thiago Alcantara, Isco ... In addition, Koke is a worker, yes, but for me it is the best worker in midfield, and if Oscar can be worth 30 million, I think Koke can worth a few million more. I honestly do not understand the comparison between Oscar and Koke. We sold Mata because Jose considered that we had to bet heavily on Oscar, but he did not return with effort the trust that we place in Oscar. Sell Oscar for 30 million and sign Koke by 30/40 could be a perfect change to upgrade our team. It is practically player by player, and after that, if the market allows, try to fight for Isco, Thiago, Pogba, Reus ... But that is another story completely different. Regards.

Hi friend! Please, I have set an example with two players: 1. Player A (Beckham). A player known throughout the world for years rated one of the best players in the world. But, in my opinion, all those good descriptions on Player A (Beckham) was because he was mediatic and appeared on the highlights from any match. But thinking about the team, he was not an essential player. 2. Player B (Scholes). An adorable player tactically. With a capacity for spectacular teamwork and one of those players that any coach loves to have on His team. But that player has worldwide recognition much lower than Player A (Beckham) for not being mediatic and do a perfect job but from the darkness (away from the photographers). I do not compare Koke with Scholes, Thiago with Koke or anything. Just compare two players with different awards for his work only for aspects of marketing. If you or someone has understood this in my previous comment I apologize but that was not my intention. About Thiago Alcantara, I can only say that I am completely in love with his style of play. If it were me, I would sign Thiago Alcantara and Koke and so we would not have problems with our midfield and Financial Fair Play. I repeat, Thiago Alcantara is one of the best young players I've seen in my life. I'm from Spain and since before 2008 everyone in Spain we saw La Masia games just to see Thiago Alcantara. If we would sign Thiago for me would be greater happiness than when we signed Fabregas. He has had very bad luck because the injuries, but mainly because of having Xavi, Iniesta and Fabregas ahead of him. I totally agree with you on this. I pretended to say with the example of the 100 games in league is that, until now, Koke has a career which has demonstrated more than Thiago with fewer years. But the rest of the factors that you say are completely true. I think the comparison between Thiago and Koke is not fair. Koke is a team player who should be compared with other potential signings (or for example Matic) but not with Thiago. To me Thiago Alcantara should compare players like Isco, Pogba and maybe in a few years with players like Reus or Hazard. Thiago Alcantara is a star and Koke is a team player. No comparison possible. I apologize if I upset you or someone with my comments, it was not my intention. Regards.

Until 2008 everyone in Spain were laughing Xavi Hernandez on and they said that he was the eternal heir of Pep Guardiola, that he had no future, that he was nothing spectacular ... That's because the type of players like Xavi or Koke make a lot of subterranean work from the shadows but are vital to a big team. Makelele also was despised in Real Madrid because the major players was Zidane, Ronaldo and Figo. But when he abandoned Real madrid they did not stop losing so many trophies despite having GALACTICOS. Reports say that Juventus would be prepared to pay 30 million pounds for Oscar. I think Koke can not have a lower price. There are players that are only appreciated by coaches. If we ask everyone what is the best player of Chelsea, everyone would say Hazard, Fabregas or Costa, but for me Azpilicueta and Matic are vital for survival. I prefer workers than stars. By the way, comparisons should not be taken literally.

It is an example to show that we can not trust Youtube or players that appear in summaries of the matches. Scholes has been much better player than Beckham, but everyone preferred Beckham for being more mediatic. In football we have to think with the mind, not with the eyes. Thinking about the cheap show we will never going to reach the level of Barcelona or Real Madrid. Thiago Alcantara makes a very nice plays, but he is 24 and he has not played 100 games in the league. Thiago Alcantara is show and Koke is work and sacrifice for his team. I prefer the second option. By the way, comparisons should not be taken as literal.

The difference between Paul Scholes and David Beckham was that Beckham was a perfect player for Youtube and Scholes was a disaster for Youtube. But I prefer a thousand times more Scholes than Beckham. I think we're a team where the main thing is the work than the dancers prepared for the photo. Koke is a disaster for Youtube or for the photos but he is a player with great tactical discipline, ability to sacrifice for the team with a huge job in midfield and able to move a team from behind. I prefer Scholes, I prefer Koke. To me Koke is the guy.

Simeone has been too defensive. Extremely. Koke has a perfect defensive performance. And in offensive positions he has been the only Atletico player who has done something. And good circulation of ball from his feet. For me a great match of Koke but their performance has hurt him because Simeone approach. Koke is a perfect clockwork orange. A leader from the midfield. Regards.

Koke + Kondogbia in place of Oscar + Mikel would be a perfect change to regenerate our team. In 15 minutes begins the game Real Madrid - Atletico de Madrid. I wish that Koke has a great performance tonight. Regards.

The failure of PSG in Champions League shows that what Roman has made with us is not easy. Thanks Roman

Hi friend! The theme of William and Salah was an example. Now everyone says that Messi is the Argentinean Salah, when Salah did nothing with us. But it was just an example ... They are just different tastes, but Thiago Alcantara has played in Barcelona (probably one of the best teams in history with Guardiola) and Bayern Munich. They are top teams. Instead Koke has made a name in the world playing at Atletico de Madrid. I think it is easier to succeed in Bayern or Barcelona than Atletico. To me Thiago must demonstrate their level. Not only in Youtube videos or what seems he can become. Thiago has to have a continuous performance so we can say he is a great consolidated player. Instead Koke takes three consecutive seasons having a spectacular performance ... not what he can become, Koke is a consolidated reality. Although are just different tastes, no problem... Regards.

Thiago is clearly better technically than Koke, he have a much better quality .... but Koke 22 years has shown many more things than Thiago with 24 years. It's like Salah and Willian (do not take this comparison literally). Maybe Salah is better technically and has more quality than Willian, but Willian has earned a place in our starting eleven while Salah was sleeping. I believe in meritocracy, and the difference between Koke and Thiago has been seen in the grass. And, so far, Koke is better than Thiago. Regards.

Koke is a midfielder tailor made for Jose. A player able to fight for every balloon but with a lot tactical sense to distribute the ball. I think his position with us would have to be midfield alongside Matic. Our big problem this season has been our trouble carrying the ball from behind and our game sometimes too predictable. With Koke these problems would disappear and we would have two brains defenitivamente / compasses with him and Fabregas. Definitely a great signing. Thiago is a great player, SPECTACULAR. But perhaps even he has not shown anything because in Barcelona he has always been an eternal promise or the eternal heir to Xavi, Bayern Munich and he has had very bad luck with injuries. I think for the natural quality Thiago Koke is better, but if we see the performance of both and what both have done in recent seasons I think Koke is a player consolidated at the highest level of world football able to play in any team and Thiago remains an eternal promise. Not everything is natural quality, also daily work and effort is required. And Koke has natural quality and a lot, a lot, alot of daily work and daily effort. I vote for Koke. Regards.

I honestly think it's a joke associate Paul Pogba with Barcelona mainly because Barcelona can not sign until 2016. In Barcelona say that maybe Pogba could accept to stay on loan at Juventus until January 2016 to then go to Barcelona in january!. A joke. It's sad, but if tomorow Atletico de Madrid eliminated Real Madrid in Champions League They will probably put more than 100 million euros and they have signed Pogba in July. But our only hope we have left are the words of Mino Raiola about Real Madrid ... Regards.

Hi friend! Thiago can go with Pep another team if Guadiola leaves Bayern, but when I speak of Bundesliga as an inferior competition I mean that is a less mediatic league, with less repercussion. Although for me Bundesliga is a beautiful league. But Premier League and La Liga have more power in Marketing. Another factor that could cause Thiago leaves Bayern is that if he keeps away from Spain perhaps he will have more complicated to go with the national team of Spain. I think it's a great player and can play on any team. I agree with nadavTKL about what Barcelona fans they said before about Thiago. They were saying that Thiago was the best player in La Masia since Messi, and everyone in Barcelona had many illusions about him. Regards.

Perhaps the major problem of Thiago Alcantara has been that in Spain it has always been seen as the eternal heir of Xavi Hernandez. And always seemed that both were incompatible in the same starting eleven. An eternal promise he could not succeed in Barcelona. Xavi Hernandez had the same problem with Guardiola. And in the early years of his career Xavi was not a major player until Guardiola leaves Barcelona to continue playing in Italy. That is why Thiago has spent several years at La Masia hoping to have an opportunity which never came because Xavi and Iniesta were totally indisputable and Barcelona also signed Fabregas. Thiago Alcantara is the eternal promise of La Masia. But maybe not demonstrated his true level of mentality (a bit childish in some behaviors) and its tendency to make mistakes for his anarchic style in the grass. When I say "anarchic style" I mean that Thiago is an artist with the balloon difficult to control. After in Bayern he has had many problems with injuries that have cut their progression / career. Right now his future is a incognita but his qualities are immenses. Regards.

Hi friend! I also believe that Bayern is one of the best teams in the world, but Bundesliga, with the exception of Bayern, is a league clearly lower than Premier League or La Liga. The only reason that Thiago Alcantara is on Bayern is because Pep Guardiola is there. When Guardiola leaves Bayern I think Thiago Alcantara would prefer a change of team to a higher league. There are also other reasons. The Spanish language is very different from the German language and, believe me, many Spaniards suffer a lot to adapt to the German language. Also the style of German life is very different from the Spanish. I think he would feel more comfortable in other culture as Spain or in a city like London where they live Spanish players or foreign players who have played in Spain. Honestly, I see very complicated Thiago Alcantara follow in Bayern Munich if Guardiola leaves this summer. If that possibility exists for me he would have to be one of our main objectives. Regards.

Hi friend! hahaha! Thank you. I personally would love a team with players like Koke - Thiago - Fabregas - Hazard. It would be a show guaranteed every game. This type of players guarantee a romantic classic football and the ability to imitate the Tiki - Taka of Spain and Barcelona. Besides these guys know how to work for the team, which is perfect for Mourinho. I think Jose would adapt himself perfectly to this kind of players. Hopefully this can be possible. Regards.

I think that if we win Arsenal this Saturday I think that would be mandatory that Ruben Loftus-Cheek will be playing the last five games in our starting eleven to check if he is mature enough to play for next season. First. RLC Matic Willian Fabregas Hazard Drogba If we win Arsenal we would have a privileged position to do this kind of things. And when we win Premier League players like Isa Brown or Solanke necessarily deserve a chance because they have earned through their efforts and spectacular performance. Second (last matches once won Premier League). Matic RLC Fabregas Fabregas Solanke Brown These guys deserve a chance and it's now or never. Is no point having the best European Academy for anything... Regards.

I think that existing the possibility of signing Koke, or Thiago Alcantara or Isco maybe we could play without a right winger pure a team based in midfielders like barcelona or Spain. In the market there are several interesting right winger: Messi, Bale, Reus or Alexis, but maybe all of them are overpriced. Barcelona used Messi as false right winger as the only player on the sides. Maybe we can use Hazard in a similar role. Koke, which is absolutely midfielder for me, can also play near the sides if that is necessary. I believe that the opportunity to sign Isco and Thiago Alcantara are historical. Two players to master a decade with only one of them signing. I would do something crazy for them. by the way, if Guardiola leave Bayern Munich this season, the most probably is that Thiago Alcantara will desperately seek a transfer because Guardiola was the main reason to play for Bayern. Thiago Alcantara has a perfect mindset to be led by Jose. But Koke is the main signing because it is so versatile. I would sign Koke and between Isco and Thiago I would try one of them. I believe that in modern football there are no fixed positions on the grass, and players are rotated according to the needs of the moment. We played at the beginning of the season In this way with impressive results. US. Thiago Al. Matic Koke Fabregas Hazard False winger as Willian this season. Diego Costa Barcelona. Xavi Busquest Messi Fabregas Iniesta Villa It's just a hypothetical possibility, but with this system we could try to recover the football we did at the beginning of the season. I personally think it is better to defend with the ball than running. Regards.

From Spain: AS. Mourinho wants to take Koke to Chelsea for next season. The Chelsea sporting director watched the Atléti star in Málaga. Paying the player's release clause, which is close to 60 million euros, will be the only way to enter discussions with the player. http://as.com/diarioas/2015/04/20/english/1429513704_590514.html Regards.
