Gattuso going to destroy Wenger hype!

Milan vs Arsenal could be decent. Neither is likely qualifying UCL through domestic league, so there's actually something of value in EL for them. Atletico would've probably preferred anything else than a trip to long trip to Russia at this point.
|
So I'm assuming Atletico are the odds on favorite to win this, no?

Spain newspapers are just too hilarious. They are in a campaign for "Bale will leave Real Madrid" ,"reasons for selling Bale", "the team must renew, Bale should leave" etc. But they don't mention Benzema xDD

Yeah Benze has to go and then if they really want a new attack then Bale has to go as well then build around Ronaldo and Kane :3
|
I'd say Kane is too heavy for RMA
Neymar would fit perfectly on the other hand
|
Ronnie Kane Salah up front
There you go a 600m front three

They should buy a star and sell Cristiano. It's their last chance to get any money for him, and keeping him means you can't really purchase a top 5 player to lead the team without creating big issues. Bale isn't an ego issue and is much younger.
But if they sell Ronaldo, they probably should find a solution for the 9 as well since Benzema is more of an assist player than a scorer. And with Ronaldo out, it'll be an issue; as it's already showing this year.

The brand value though.

If they have the balls to sell Ronaldo, there will be more than one top striker lining up to join Real i can guarantee that

hard to sell cristiano because real gets too much revenue by having him. Pretty much the same why ManU and Real never wanted to sell Beckham.

also, aside from this season, he's been one of two players that can't be replaced by any other player for like, 10 consecutive years.

 We are going down 
I was in Rostock today... also a disappointment :/
|
Sort of brutal considering Stoke could've left the relegation zone with 3 points.
|
So Ronaldo gave up on scoring a hattrick so that Benzema would get a goal.
