the wes 7,212 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 :censored: robinho deal does not look like its going to happen lads if i was big phil i would go for Quaresma what do think lads????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stamford 3 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I think it will wes, read Esk's post in the Robinho thread and it makes a lot of sense. That statement is for the fans benefit. If he was to leave and come to Chelsea with Real's full blessing, there would be riots in Madrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott 7 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Well if we can't get Robinho it might simply mean that we play differently under Scolari. However, if we do want to use wingers, then I guess Quaresma is as good an option as any. I would say Ribery over Quaresma, but I doubt we'd actually get Ribery.

Gianfranco_Z 202 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I dont believe we will get Robinho and the squad will probably stay as it is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskoviolente 425 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 there won´t be a deal neitehr with Ribery nor Robinho this year. Bayern would never let go their "magician francaise" after one season....and Real wouldn´t let go Robinho if there wasn´t a good substitute for him By the way Real manager Schneider doesn´t want Ronaldo , he said he wants the board to bring Van der Vaart.

EskWeston 696 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I see no reason why the Robinho deal won't go through, as Stamford said comments so far are for the Madrid fans benefit, Madrid players have been saying that Robinho seems unhappy and i think it will happen in time. However if it doesn't happen then i have a feeling that Scolari will stick with what he has... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Cee 50 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 If we didnt get him i'd go for Quaresma He doesn't even make the 1st 11 for Portugal (does he?) so I'm not sure Scolari would go for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can't jusge him too harshly on the fact he isn't in the starting 11.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EskWeston 696 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Yeah, on one side, what about the other side? Simao on the other side, but i believe he is very one sided much like SWP and doesn't tend to play on the other side. (Of course i could be wrong on that one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Of course i could be wrong on that one) But Ronaldo can play on either side so if he's rated by Scolari he should still be in the 1st 11, I think...

Possibly, depends on how high he rate Simao! Quaresma certainly wouldn't be a main choice, but i would feel he would be an improvement to what we currently have. But at the moment it seems it is down to Robinho or stick with what we have. Although i think the club are confident of getting Robinho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Scolari and Quaresma have had a few disagreements in the past, I think. Quaresma is one of those player who can be immense in a game for a period then fade away, a lot like Wright-Phillips. If we don't get Robinho, then we have Joe Cole and Florent Malouda.

pablo814 1 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I think we will be ok w/o Robinho. We have the talent. Malouda should come out of his shell, and if SWP doesn't shape up, he's gonna ship out in Jan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warnie_666 1,081 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Doesnt Matter if we dont get Robinho. We are seeing Scolari Implementing a 4-4-2 Diamond Formation with Full Backs bombarding forward and streching the defenses. He does shift to 4-3-3 (in which case we can use Joe cole, Malouda, Kalou and Sinclair) but he looks more keen on 4-4-2 hence I dont think we will miss Robinho.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 On the contrary, he has used 4-3-3 in five of the six halves of football so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodisnowhereCFC 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 How about Ribery? His leg is broken, that does CFC no good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
