Real Madrid will never learn. Bale won't bring them the champions league. Real Madrid have 11 elite players from all over that simply can't play together. There's a reason Barcelona dominate, their players are mostly homegrown talent combined with proper training to a point where they can pretty much all read each others minds. Madrid however just expect their world all stars to win without using the mindset alone. All the players come from completely different styles of football. You have ozil doing one thing and Ronaldo doing something completely different. They can dominate poor Spanish opposition all they want but it means nothing when you finish second with no European trophy.

two different styles of football. thats not to say your wrong, your right, both styles need communication, discipline and all but look at it this way too, Real Madrid compete with Barcelona on signings alone... 'whos got bigger balls' i was speaking to Spanish mates a few years ago talking me through the politics side which is just crazy, on a whole different level.

A big club but run by a bunch of amateurs it seems.

they all went on holiday and will argue business wouldnt have been able to be done in the early period. 'apparently' a businessman from the states has arrived at Arsenal to conclude transfers. I don't know whether thats Arsenal feeding third party crap to shut them up or these men incharge really havent got a clue and have called for help.

So the Football League starts next week, looking forward to it. Although is it me, or does the gap between end and start of seasons seem to be getting smaller every season? Could there be an earlier start this year as the World Cup is next summer, and the FA are trying to get a couple of weeks rest between the end of season and World Cup?

Good point, you would think that is true, but I'm not sure it is earlier?

I think last year it was same time.

And looking at city that argument doesn't stand up, perhaps higuain could've been signed at the reduced fee if they hadn't been away.

Spuds should figuratively and literally bite their hands of imo

yeah i dont buy into it. the guy is looking to push Torres out the national team but thats not exactly going to be hard. Liverpool have missed out. sink the ship all for Suarez.

Well they will come but you might have to wait until the final day of the transfer window on the 2nd of September.
