He was a complete idiot for going to Real in the first place and now he's unhappy about not getting playing time...

What warrants a 3X+ value growth?

Genuine question, don’t watch la liga.

In hindsight, maybe but it still a far better chance of winning the league, cup(s) and CL with Real Madrid than with Real Betis. Who wouldn't wanna join Galacticos?

It's a hard decision to make, should I go play for once of the biggest sides in world football and have a better chance of winning major trophies. Or should I stay where I am possibly not winning anything but playing regular football. In his case I think he maybe should have looked for another club to join whilst playing regularly and then maybe get his big move to Madrid whilst also getting the game time he wants. As I said it's a tough call to make. My theory is the move came to soon. But to turn them down takes massive balls, then comments about him "being good enough and having the belief in himself"


poisoned chalice so to say but I'd like him here

Then got constantly kicked up in the air and out of the game.

How did he cope with that treatment? Would be good to have info to answer the inevitable "but can he cope with the physical nature of PL football?" type of questions!

Think this lad is overrated, would rather GLC and ndombele.

Would rather andre gomes come to think if it.

To be honest, he tried, but he and the rest of the Spain team were a little brutalised from some old school Italian defending (think Baresi) and Chiesa scored 2 as Italy dominated the 2nd half and ran out comfortable winners.

Don't think he's good enough for us anymore.

Has Spammers or Everton written all over it.

Every major club was after him at that point. He could've chosen a top club where he would have gotten regular playing time. At that age and stage in his career that would've been a smart move. He wasn't smart, just greedy. I can understand it but he can spare us the moaning about not playing.

I would love to see you as a 21 year old turn down Real Madrid.

I would if another top club was in for me where I would get playing time.

So you would rather sign for Real to not even be selected in the squad (exactly what I said would happen when he signed for them) than signing for Bayern Munchen, PSG, Juventus, Atletico Madrid, etc and far better chance of getting playing time? All right then. If all you're interested in at 21 is money then fair enough, but if I had his talent that wouldn't be my priority at that age.

The Sun saying Madrid are offering Ceballos and £45m for Eriksen. Prob not true, but would be tempting if Poch rates Ceballos.

This is pretty much a reworking of the thread opening post from May 22nd but with a value.

Herc immediately responded with, “nothing to it”

Can’t imagine much has changed in the last 4 weeks.

Will be interesting to see what happens with Eriksen but can’t see DC here next season.
