bubuy Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 (edited) Reyes Will Be A Madrid Player Next Season - Agent Real Madrid are holding talks to make José Antonio Reyes' move from Arsenal permanent and his agent is confident that a deal will be pushed through.The Spanish international has made it clear that he does not want to return to the north London outfit and would rather stay at the Bernabéu.After an inconsistent season on loan at Madrid, los Merengues did not appear interested in securing his services his full-time.In-coming coach Bernd Schuster has asked if a bid could be made as he believes that the left-sided midfielder will be an important player next term.Arsenal are not placed a huge price tag on Reyes, according to his representative Jesús Rodríguez de Moya."Reyes doesn't want to return to London," he explained."If the logical steps are taken, Reyes will be a Madrid player next year."Arsenal are not asking for €20m but they are asking for a reasonable fee in accordance with what they paid to Sevilla."The negotiations are on the table."Before Madrid's interest, Reyes was linked with a move to city rivals Atlético and even a return to his former club, Sevilla, was mooted. Metzelder has landed "It is a great honour and a great challenge for me to be a part of this team"As soon as he landed in Madrid on Sunday afternoon, Christoph Metzelder went to the Mirasierra Suites Hotel, where he gave an interview to RealmadridTV and Realmadrid.com. He praised his new Club and promised to work hard in order to win titles. Christoph Metzelder arrived at Madrid Airport's T4 approximately at 4 pm. He then went straight to the Mirasierra Suites Hotel, where he will stay until he is officially presented as a Real Madrid player."I am very excited with being here. I signed my contract a few days ago and I can’t wait to get started.""It is an honour and a great challenge for me to have joined Real Madrid, especially after they won the League title last season. Let’s hope the team does well again this year.""This is a dream come true for me and I hope I can help the team to win more titles this season." "I am going to bring to the team what I do best. I will work to strengthen Real Madrid. I wish to adapt in the first few weeks to help the team in all I can.""I have never met any of the players on the squad personally, but I obviously know many of them because they are internationally famous, especially those who play for their national teams. I admire Ruud van Nistelrooy, Cannavaro and Casillas. I think they are very good players." Benitez Confirms Double Striker Sale Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has confirmed the sale of Craig Bellamy and Djibril Cisse and revealed a hope that Yossi Benayoun will join from West Ham United.West Ham is the destination for Bellamy, who completed his move to Upton Park for a reported £8m, which will earn the Welsh international £75,000 per week.However, any future transfer of Israeli captain Benayoun will follow seperately, although Benitez does believe that the player is keen on making the move to the Champions League runners-up."The deals for Bellamy and Cisse are completed," said Benitez."And any move for Benayoun to join us from West Ham will not be linked with the Bellamy sale. We have made an offer which has been rejected."He is a player I like and would want to sign, and I believe he wants to join us, but that deal will be separate now. We will have to wait and see what happens now next week."Cisse was also linked with a move to West Ham, but chose to stay with Marseille where he had been on loan last season. The transfer fee is believed to be around £6m.Meanwhile reserve winger Paul Anderson has joined Swansea on a season-long loan. and the best piece of news for Madridistas around the world: Cesc Wants Arsenal To Hear Madrid's Pleas According to the Spanish media, Cesc is set for an emotional showdown with his mentor, Arsene Wenger, regarding Real Madrid's transfer interest in the young midfielder.The Sunday edition of Marca reports that Francesc Fabregas, aware of Real Madrid's interest, is set to meet with Arsene Wenger, his sporting father figure, on Wednesday to ask the Frenchman to acknowledge the Spanish side's approach.Despite settling in well at Arsenal and establishing himself as a first team regular, Cesc may yet follow Thierry Henry in departing the Emirates for distant shores - albeit for a very different club.After Arsenal return for pre-season on Wednesday, Cesc is expected to discuss his future with Wenger, with a possible switch to the Bernabeu high on the agenda.Real Madrid are expected to have to pay at least 25 million euros to land the midfield starlet, should Cesc opt to fulfil his ambition of Liga football during the summer transfer window.Wenger would be bitterly disappointed to lose his protege, but may yet decide on another audacious offer for Madrid's Robinho should Cesc insist on a move back to Spain. Who said that being a Catalan would make you not notice Real Madrid? I expect Cesc to pressure Arsene and Arsenal to sell him. :thumbsupsmiley: Edited July 9, 2007 by bubuy Quote Link to comment

I expect Cesc to pressure Arsene and Arsenal to sell him. :thumbsupsmiley: With the recent movements, particularly with the loss of Henry at Arsenal, I believe that Wenger might follow his direction and Arsenal will no longer attract major players. Wenger is largely instrumental in changing Arsenal's fortunes and his ability to spot talents (like Henry, Viera and yes, Fabregas) and transform them into world-class acts is at par with Ferguson, his long-time EPL rival and admirer. However, given Arsenal's direction or non-direction, if I am Wenger, I would chose not to renew my contract with Arsenal and pursue another team. And given Real Madrid's penchant for swashbuckling football (Capello who is known for his defensive solidity was still fired despite wrestling the crown from Barca), Wenger is a good match for Madrid. Wenger's French revolution at Arsenal showed the league what swashbuckling style is. Personally though, I would prefer that Fabregas returns to the Catalan giants and reunite with youth buddies Iniesta and Messi. Their defeat against International showed that Barca lacks a strong midfield anchor and Fabregas can certainly fill that shoes as the lad had shown in its Champions League match against Juventus (versus of all people, Viera).

_eRon_ Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 sportscenter just reported that ben-ayoun (tama ba spelling?) has signed for liverpool.. the new manager of real madrid (schulster nga ba?) has declared that their main priority is to sign cesc fabregas of arsenal.. manutd are still close to signing carlos tevez of westham, the only problem is the dispute of who will get the bulk of the 3omillion, west ham or Kia Joorabchian, tevez's rep from the managing firm who brought the 2 argentinians to westham.. nanunuod ba kyo ng asian cup? ayos ang mga upsets ng malaysia&vietnam, katuwa manuod..kawawa lang malaysia sa china, 5-1..

mojo2NV Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 With the recent movements, particularly with the loss of Henry at Arsenal, I believe that Wenger might follow his direction and Arsenal will no longer attract major players. Wenger is largely instrumental in changing Arsenal's fortunes and his ability to spot talents (like Henry, Viera and yes, Fabregas) and transform them into world-class acts is at par with Ferguson, his long-time EPL rival and admirer. nice analysis buntot..i definitely agree that Wenger has the Midas touch in spotting talents, the following were virtual unknowns when signed by Arsenal Dennis Bergkamp , Patrick Viera(£3.5m...sold to Juventus for £13m),Anelka,Marc Overmars (bought for peanuts and sold to Barca for £25m in 2000...much more expensive than Thierry), Henry(£10m..sold to Barca for £16m),Pires,Wiltord to name of few...However I dont agree with your statement, that Arsenal will no longer attract major players. Because Arsenal does not buy major players, Arsenal creates them! Was Fabregas a household name prior to becoming a Gunner? One star in the making is Fran Merida..another Spaniard on the Arsenal youth team..watch this space he maybe another player to be by Barca,RM,and the rest, in the next 2-3 years. However, given Arsenal's direction or non-direction, if I am Wenger, I would chose not to renew my contract with Arsenal and pursue another team. And given Real Madrid's penchant for swashbuckling football (Capello who is known for his defensive solidity was still fired despite wrestling the crown from Barca), Wenger is a good match for Madrid. Wenger's French revolution at Arsenal showed the league what swashbuckling style is. we could only assume at this stage...the whole thing really started when Gunners vice chairman left the club (David Dein) because of a possible takeover by another American (bastards!) businessman...Arsenal may well be dancing in the same direction and in the same tune as 1. ManU 2. Liverpool...bought by American (bastards!) businessmen as an accessory for their American (bastards!) Football Teams.As of yet theres no news as to his contract renewal beyond this coming season. One thing that may well hold him to Arsenal is the new stadium...he was involved in the actual planning and design of the Emirates...he may still consider the stadium his baby and may well write Aresnal's history post Highbury. Capello...swahbuckling?...I think the 2 dont mix well....Italians are not and never will be renowed for swashbuckling football.....defensive...shall i say too defensive, slow and boring maybe...that's why I could not finish a whole Serie A game in 1 sitting. Personally though, I would prefer that Fabregas returns to the Catalan giants and reunite with youth buddies Iniesta and Messi. Their defeat against International showed that Barca lacks a strong midfield anchor and Fabregas can certainly fill that shoes as the lad had shown in its Champions League match against Juventus (versus of all people, Viera). If ever Fabregas leaves Arsenal..it will most likely be for Barca..as I previously stated he is a Catalunian and will never ever don a Madrid jersey..I could not think of a player that hopped from Barca to Madrid..only 1..that is Figo...what the heck he Portugese anyway...well he is bound to Arsenal for several more years... i wish!

Beckham's stay on the US might not be a fairy-tale story as he would have hoped. He is already being ridiculed by some "soccer" analysists. Quote Link to comment

Its Real Madrid who prefers swashbuckling football- thats why Capello was fired. Real Madrid has always preferred football that is pleasing to its fans- which is attacking football. Capello, in some ways, resemble Mourinho the way they assemble their tactics. As for players that moved from Barca to Madrid, well there are plenty unfortunately, and are considered legends in both squads. Madrid's new manager- Bernd Schuster is considered a Barca legend. And Figo is not the only galactico that "betrayed" Barca, Ronaldo who used to spearhead Real's attack is also considered a Barca legend. So, if Fabregas chooses to move, he wont be the last. And then you have Saviola... On the other hand, Etoo is formerly from Real Madrid until they insulted him by mispelling his name on his contract and failed to pick-up the lost kid at the airport... As for Arsenal, I can only hope they give a good fight next season... on paper, Liverpool has better edge over Arsenal, with their new signings, Babel and whew! Torres... But then again, you win on the pitch, not on paper. Its sad, I havent seen Copa America..hopefully when i get my own place then i can start buying some stuff Im just starting out..I read that Argentina did very well, particularly Messi. It would have been better if Mexico and Argentina met in the finals, instead of Brazil. Quote Link to comment
