Re: Ruben de la Red linked

haven't seen him for some time..has he really turned into such a good player? I only remember some performances in his very early days at Real. Wasn't that special then

Re: Ruben de la Red linked

Well FWIW, he scored a cracking goal at Euro 2008 in the group match against Greece. I've seen a bit of him, looks good player but I'm not sure about the price. £15m might be a bit steep.

Anything over 5mil is a rip off.

According to Spanish newspaper Marca, Aston Villa have made a £9.4million offer for Real Madrid midfielder Ruben de la Red. The Spain international has been offered a four-year contract, with Real coach Bernd Schuster yet to make a decision on his future.

Interesting. Wonder how he would fit into their plans if Barry stayed, having already gotten Sidwell (granted a year off footy, but a great player the year before for Reading).

This is one on my anti-wish list. Was awful at EURO anyways.

Just for you then Banduan, the world's weakest link to a player courtesy of the Telegraph:

Arsenal prepare bid for Real Madrid midfielder Ruben de la Red

I expect his signature by week's end.

Veloso
Alonso
De La Red
Barry
Inler

Oh for goodness' sake...

Wenger has made it easier for the press by admitting we are in the market for an experienced/ quality midfielder.

Re: Ruben de la Red linked

Well if we get any of them it'll be a step up from what we have now.

 

[Macho]

Re: Ruben de la Red linked

Is he really? I reckon we could do without him tbh.
I wouldn't complain, but I would be very suprised should this happen.

Re: Ruben de la Red linked

Imagine if we dont get none of the players on that shortlist?

not really hard to imagine, TBH.. its a distinct possibility/probability

Re: Ruben de la Red linked

I wouldn't be particularly surprised if we don't end up signing any of the players on that list.

Your double negatives are confusing the pants off the forum.

Re: Ruben de la Red linked

well inler is 20% probebly, but the other names i think we have no chance/need of signing.

optimism aside, i think bishoff will battle it out with denilson for the 'spot next to cesc' as diaby will be handed a 40 game ban by blatter.

Re: Ruben de la Red linked

lol, well ol' bischy wont be ready to start fighting for a place for a few months yet apparently

 

[Jameel46]

Re: Ruben de la Red linked

think that none of them on that list have the aggression needed to be the ball winner (which is what we need, not a holding midfielder)
