UKTexans Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Just now, LeeEvans said: Pushing the ref is idiotic either way, especially after what was minimal contact at best. I'm kinda on the fence with the push. Obviously it's a no go, but it's more like a push off rather than any malice. I think 5 games is fine. You see players spitting vitriol in referee and lineman faces and getting nothing. Ronaldo didn't chase him around the pitch and then "shove" him, it was more in disbelief.

I don't think it's overly aggressive or really that huge of a deal but the referee is walking away when Ronaldo comes up and pushes him in the back, that's the worst part of it for me. I think five matches is okay for punishment, Messi shoved a ref and got nothing a couple seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagles $5$ Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I don't know why Real want to buy Mbappe, because they have already have a young superstar in Marco Asensio. The kid has monster potential, and is already doing it at Madrid unlike Mbappe or Dembele. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benzema is almost 30, Ronny 32, and Bale constantly linked with a move away. Mbappe needs a couple more years to refine as a striker which would suit that team perfectly (potentially making Benny or Ronny expendable sooner rather than later, maximizing any potential return).

Iggles Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Looks like a $500 million release clause just got added to Asensio's deal. Can't imagine anyone going that high over the next few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Neymar's going for 198 million, I can't see Asensio going for 2.5x that in the next half decade barring crazy inflation. Deportivo should be an easy win, but a decent number of guys are sitting tonight not even counting the suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madridista Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 Thought I saw somewhere Isco's new release clause is 700 mil. Which is interesting because it wouldn't surprise me if Isco left in the next couple of years, while Asensio isn't going anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see Isco going anywhere anytime soon, either, unless Kovacic starts getting more playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. We need to get younger. Although, we could of kept Morata and not have to spend, but Perez is Perez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madridista Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 Utterly disgraceful performance. Some things never change. Karim Benzema will be 65 years old and using a walker and still get a full 90 minutes every weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
