Rumoured Raphael Varane

[supporter 3,088]

Gary Cahill is England's vice captain, there is a euro coming up. There is no way he's gonna be sitting on the bench for a 21yr old to get more starts. Zouma had a decent year not amazing. He had some good performances but most of those came with him playing in the midfield.

The best decision for Kurt is to give him a loan spell that allows him to play a lot especially in the first half of the season.

Hi friend!

I think Zouma has already shown that he has to be in our starting eleven every game. He played against Liverpool or City as a veteran, without errors

and an unusual tactical intelligence of his age in such an important position like Centre-Back. Personally I feel safer with Zouma than with Cahill.

This season our natural tendency has been to place John Terry (c) as indisputable, with Cahill and Zouma fighting for a place in our starting eleven, being Cahill chosen by Jose in the majority of games.

This year, if we sign Varane, I think Varane would take the role of John Terry (c) as indisputable centre-back, with John Terry (c) and Zouma fighting for a place in our starting eleven, with John Terry (c) being the main option at the start of the season and for important matches, and Zouma coming slowly to become induscutible at the end of the season to make a good transition between John Terry (c) and Zouma.

Regarding the comparison of Varane and Zouma, I think both would form a pair of Centre-Backs similar to what we had with Ricardo Carvalho and John Terry (c). Varane and Carvalho as players with ability to get the ball played from behind, and Zouma and John Terry (c) as center-backs very strong and very physical strength.

Our past.

Our future.

Varane Zouma

But I agree with you that Cahill has a lot of experience and maybe he could and should have an important role with us this season.

That is why if Jose believes that the best for the future of Zouma is to go on loan to another team to get more experience for the future (he is just 20 years old) I think that Valencia would be the perfect option for him. They're going to have to sell this summer Otamendi and Zouma would be perfect for Valencia. A team coached by a coach (Nuno) with like-minded as Jose, and playing Champions League next season. Zouma could return in 2016 with over 40 matches between La Liga, Champions League and Spanish Cup. A loan that could be just as good for us as Courtois and Atletico de Madrid.

But I prefer to see succeed Zouma with us from below. I think it would be great to see this guy grow up with us. To me Zouma and Varane should be our first choices next season.

Regards.

Try without punishable errors! He made a fair few mistakes especially against Liverpool that Cech bailed him out of. Again I'm not belittling him as a player, he was good last year just not good enough to make him the clear no.2 after John and with Cahill still more than capable of playing next to Terry its best to loan out Zouma and maybe bring in Varane to deputize for Cahill or Terry should something go wrong.

Zouma has proven he is a decent prospect but he's still very raw, loads to learn and its best for him not to do his learning at the home of the champions.

Im pretty sure it won't be long before Varane gets in ahead of Cahill if it takes time atall.

Raphael Varane will remain at Real Madrid next season and has been declared non-transferable (Marca) #RMCF #CFC #MUFC #FCBayern

[supporter 3,088]

According to "Superdeporte" Real Madrid has been meeting with the representative of Otamendi to try to sign him. Superdeporte is the main sports newspaper of the city of Valencia. A very reliable newspaper respect the news of Valencia CF.

Maybe Real Madrid is trying to sign a centre-back because they know that Varane can leave Real Madrid this summer ...

About Otamendi, Valencia and Real Madrid I have to say one thing to me is almost impossible for Real Madrid get sign Otamendi. The hatred of Valencia (the city and the club) against Real Madrid is enormous. And for them to sell Otamendi to Real Madrid would be an humiliation.

I remember signings like Mendieta (which was sold to Lazio for 25 million euros less than the offer of Real Madrid) and Ayala (who spent six months without playing for wanting to go to Real Madrid).

Florentino Perez also promised not to pay buyout clauses ...

But the important thing about this is that Real Madrid could be looking for a new Centre-back, maybe considering selling Varane or Ramos.

Varane would only leave Real Madrid to come with us (IMO).

Ramos's case is different. Ramos asks (according to reports) over 20 million euros (14.40 million pounds) per season. Something that Florentino Perez refuses to pay. Sergio Ramos is believed a rock star, and his brother (who is his representative) is offering him to half of Europe. And there's a rumor on the radio in Spain that Ramos could be the surprise election of Barcelona, being signed for any Candidate for the presidency of Barcelona. I doubt it, and I think finally Ramos will renew for Real Madrid with a disproportionate salary.

Varane is the guy ....

Hi friend!

I believe MARCA published this as an information filtered by Real Madrid to launch the idea that Varane is not transferable. To convince Varane.

But they know that everything depends on the decision of Varane. And Varane know what Benitez could bet again for Pepe - Ramos as his Centre backs. Varane being the third option for not having experience.

MARCA is like the newspaper of Real Madrid, where Real Madrid sends its messages. And this is part of the strategy of Real Madrid to convince

Varane to stay at Real Madrid.

This will be a game of poker, and I hope that we win.

Hi friend!

hahaha! Yes, Sergio Ramos is crazy if he thinks he will give that salary. According to reports in Spain, Florentino Perez is willing to sell Sergio Ramos before giving that amount of money. And Perez is very angry about this.

A week ago, when Sergio Ramos came to the concentration of Spain for international matches, Ramos said he had not thrown Ancelotti and if the decision of the new coach depended on him this would have been different.

Ramos is a troubled player who only think about money. Even now he filtered to his friends journalists that he could go to Chelsea, when Mourinho never would sign him. NEVER, NEVER, NERVER.

Also, like Casillas, Ramos has a lot of power in the Spanish press, that's the reason why he can ask these amounts of money in salary.

But I doubt that Perez would going to give that much money. That would be crazy.

Regards.

Have I missed something? Varane coming? Is Rafa that stupid?

to answer your question

probably. probably not. definite yes!!!

[iseah100 5,612]

Varane may push for a transfer if he isn't guaranteed a starting job with the Euro's coming up in his homeland and his starting job possibly on the line.

Rafa Benitez has blocked Jose Mourinho's move for Raphael Varane. #CFC #RMCF (Evening Standard)

#CFC are having to reconsider their summer transfer targets after Benitez promised to make Varane a key part of his plans (Evening Standard)

My dream is to have Zouma/Varane/Pogba with us. I know its going to be bloomin difficult but whats the point of having small dreams. Having those 3 together, 3 of the best young defenders there are would mean France would worship us. With us wanting to build a side that will be together and dominate for years it means spending some money for the best players we can get.

Its going to be harder now with the relationship Mou has with the fat Spannish waiter but we must try.

With Ramos looking to leave chances of us signing Varane are not looking good...

I'm hoping with Casillas on exit door (he has higher wages then Ramos) Real will offer Ramos a new lucrative deal and still make our chances of Varane alive.

Having Ramos at United is also not good for us.

Apparently Rafa is going to give Varane guarantee of an important role, if he does then that's game over.

Too bad Ramos is one of the players who fell out with José. Could've signed him this summer.
