Yeah, definitely one can only dream..i totally agreed with that

btw, new thread, new spirit, new ambition, new player cant wait for the new season

And that means you might have to pay around £80million for Ronaldo for the deal to go through? Hey, I would be glad if United can get around that amount of money for Ronaldo. Some even said that Ronaldo is worth around £100million?

What a bull from The Sun. Haha.

Ronaldo is worth around £100million ? That will be too much. I think £50-£60million is reasonable.

mark the thread as spanish club please.

Those are ridiculous figures. Zidane's world record fee was only 46 million GBP. The figure I think would be ard 90 million euros which is roughly 71 million GBP. Only Man Utd fans have this fantasy idea that he is worth 100 million GBP

yes, always bull from thesun especially with this news
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article1323017.ece

anyhow, £100m is a ridiculous amount u can buy one epl club from it and not to mention the whole malaysian league ...i dont think calderon would be stupid enough to secure the transfer with that amount ...i've only seen 91m euros from madrid to offer united like what verx stated

again, one can only dream

nothing is impossible anyways nowadays with the reluctantness of united to accept the bid maybe £100m is somehow a reasonable price just like the zidane's case in 2001 and the glazers can clear their heads off the debts

David Villa admits he would consider leaving Valencia, if the Primera Liga side agreed to sell him.
The Spaniard has become one of the most-wanted strikers in Europe following his goalscoring exploits at Euro 2008 and Chelsea, Tottenham, Real Madrid and Barcelona are all thought to be considering summer bids.

Well, I would rather have Villa than Ronaldo.. Anyway, we have to wait until the EURO ends or maybe until tonight's game ..

To set the stage for Ronaldo's impending arrival here's a preview of Ronaldo. I'll get the ball rolling with some pictures courtesy of the Sun.

casillas was cool! ramos was solid against toni! well done espanyol!

Casillas !!

not espanyol lorrr. ESPANA should be...
espanyol is another team in la liga

LOL.....but i tot in english Spain last time was known as espanyol...anyways........hala espana!!!!!!!!!

i hope.. we can get both.. villa and CR7.. and more important thing is.. hopefully all-star-team-disease wont be repeated..

IF Villa and Ronaldo does join RM, what number they're gonna wear? Both wore no.7 right now and Raul is still playing for another few more seasons.

What a brilliant stunt by Casillas.. Once again he prove that he's not from this planet.. Ramos was good but he can be better.. If spain can go on slightly better than yesterday performance, I can't see why they not gonna lift the Euro Cup this time.. As I expected Villa and Torres partnership did crack a bit ( due to the Italians solid back four) .. No clear cut chance for both of them, but one can truly see that Villa done better in terms of off the ball run but his MFs failed to provide.. Silva is growing in his game, lack of accuracy but enough power which force Buffon to make several dives in both bottom corner of his post.. Last night's Italy is a team that physically strong but short of creativity(due to Pirlo's suspension IMO).. while the Spaniards was quite good in terms of creativity but lacks physical attributes which lead to several easy crush of La Roja's hope of penetration..

Anyway, I'm happy to see the penalty shootout ended in Spain's favor cause now the whole world is aware of casillas's greatness.. To beat buffon in penalty shootout and also made several heart pounding dives throughout the 120 minutes will surely opened a lot of EPL fans eyes!.. He's always there when we needed him the most! truly a hero!


Maybe Villa go for no 9 and Ronaldo will take the no 17 as it is useless with Soldado wearing it.. But anyway, the logic is if Ronaldo did make into our squad than there will be no more forward signings.. Think bout this, two of the best performers + Madrid cantera heroes + remaining players in one squad.. Sounds to me we going to that same old galacticos shit again.. The player's egos will mount in the dressing room.. Surely that's not what Senor Calderon is looking for..

The Galactico project didn't fail unlike Barca's current Galactico project which failed because there were too many huge egos to please. We simply had the Zidanes and Pavons problem, half the team made of superstars and the other half of nobody's. There needs to be balance which we do have now. Ronaldo will fit in quite nicely.

And we will not get Villa as there is only enough money to buy Ronaldo. We are taking a gamble with a single world class striker in RVN. Let's hope Saviola who is quickly becoming the forgotten man will step up next season.

It was a failed project imo. The only thing it succeeded was to put us on another level in terms of global recognition. Although we did win trophies for the first few years, as Fiorentino continued on with his project, the more the club deviated from its ideals and you could see the team lose its way so to speak.

We've since then returned to our traditional ways while still maintaining our global appeal so it was like a growing stage that the club had to go through. But if this Ronaldo transfer occurs it would be a very different situation compared to the galactico days. We aren't sacrificing our squad depth this time around and the team is more united than at any time during those days.
