El Profesor Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 Losing Ramos and Varane in the same transfer window is brutal for Real. Sure, Nacho and Militão played really well together last season, but Ramos and Varane are on a different level and now they don't really have much depth. If Varane leaves, they have basically only Militão, Alaba and Nacho as options for the position.

I dont understand the logic of letting Ramos walk and potentially selling Varane only to sign Alaba on astronomical wages. 1 step forwad 2 steps back.
Cicero Posted June 18, 2021 Posted June 18, 2021 Let's be real, a back line of Mendy--Alaba---Militão--Carvajal is hardly average.

This kind of stuff is very common in brazilian football. Clubs sign well-known players on free transfers to give fans the illusion that all is well.

Devil Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Even heavier links with Varane in the English media now. Personally be over the moon if we got him for the 40 million pounds they are talking about.
Subscriber JoshBRFC+ Posted July 17, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 17, 2021 Very close to joining United. Him abs Maguire as a CB pairing should be pretty damn good!
Cicero Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Deal done according to Romano. Two positions that were glaring weaknesses now sorted with elite players. Are United contempt with Top 4 or does Ole seriously have to put in a title challenge/trophy now?

Definitely has to be the latter. Signings like Varane and Sancho are huge statement/marquee signings to improve the squad. Anything other than a title challenge/at least one trophy is a disappointment.
Devil Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Still got more to come as well, Pogba will need replacing and Trippier is still on.
Dr. Gonzo Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Tell you what, United fans might hate the Glazers... but they definitely seem to at least care what the fans think more than FSG seem to. This spending spree to make United contenders is a good way of bribing fans back into not hating them as much.
El Profesor Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Considering the context, pandemic market, last year of contract, 50 million euros is a solid deal for Madrid. They should use that money to reinforce their attack. Aside Benzema, Madrid doesn´t have any other reliable source of goals in the squad.

Competition for the position. I actually think he starts ahead of AWB myself, his limitations going forward break down so many of our attacks. Trippier is a brilliant crosser of thr ball.
Administrator Stan Posted July 27, 2021 Administrator Posted July 27, 2021 Could be as big as Liverpool signing Van Dijk, or Man City signing Dias. Heavily improves their defence. A massive presence with serious quality and experience to add to the defence.
