Karim Benzema

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Sign new contract until 2019, ending any rumors for the next 2 years probably.

Madrid replaced midfield and goalkeeper, something that worked great before. About to sell Maria, Lopez who played great last season at Madrid.

Yet one problem they should work on; the striker: they keep benzema and buying no one else. Its just weird.

If they kept whole team same but replaced Benzema with Suarez, they would have perfect team.

Perez is nut and Anceloti not much better for allowing all these transfers.

Benzema is actually doing just fine in Madrid, leaving the decisive goals to Ronaldo, and just doing his job in defence and scoring against mid table teams.I think Ancelotti fears that a great striker would actually break the Ronaldo-dependancy that José Mourinho created in Madrid, that could change the way Madrid's midfield would actually read the game, and for an example rather than give the ball mainly to Ronaldo or to Bale to start an attack, they would also try to give the key to a Falcao or to a Cavani, and that would change Madrid's way of playing, Benzema knows that he isnt a great striker, just a fine 9, he wouldnt rise his voice if he isnt always "feeded" with balls, dont think another one could accept that role.

Rumors that Arsenal want to sign him and he might leave Real, if Costa is out for a while we simply must try to sign him if he is available imo.

They will only sell Benzema if another big name striker is available.

Cheeky Madrid bid for aguero??

Lmao, Arsenal fans getting stupidly excited because he uploaded an Instagram picture of him on a plane

Unless Real sign Cavani or someone of that caliber, I agree with you.

Cavani is awful if they sign him they might as well have kept Higuain after all these years. But then again they sacked Carlo for FSW so I don't know anymore

Watch the first preseason game when Ronaldo started as striker vs roma

and the next game where benzema started as striker vs man city.

Perez is stupid, but not that stupid to sell benzema.

Meh I don't know how well he is/isn't playing, it was more of the whole 'big name' thing.

And yeah I agree lol. But they had to pick one or the other at that time, it's not like Benzema was a bad choice..

Aguero would be really great for them. I hope Benzema stays, I've gotten used of Arsenal being shit, getting Benzema is definitely not nice.

[didierforever 7,349]

arsenal is arsenal. dont give a shit about them.

if benzema going to arsenal means RM buying aguero, i will pray day and night for that to happen.

It's not about being stupid or clever. It is about building Real Madrid in his image. Benzema for better or worse is one of Perez's chosen players and until a bigger name joins the club Benzema isn't going anywhere.

A Perez Galactico only leaves when a bigger Galactico arrives.

[Gilvorak 3,734]

The only shot Arsenal have of getting Benzema is if he decided he wanted to be the "main man" elsewhere which would be a nightmare for the rest of the League. Thankfully he's happy at Madrid so they have no reason to sell consider only one other striker in better than him.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Rumors is that he will sign for Arsenal next week and might even attend their game against Liverpool on monday to watch, wtf surely this can't be true? Rumored fee of £48m which is just about right for him, not overpriced imo.

Really hope this is bs
