Gabriel Heinze has joined the sickbay which already hosts: Van Nistelrooy, Diarra, Higuain, De La Red, Cannavaro and Robben.
Gabriel got injured in the match against BATE Borisov and is set to be out for three weeks:
Medical examinations and a magnetic resonance have determined that Gabriel Heinze is injured with a hematoma on the deep fascia of his left leg, separating the triceps surae muscle from the flexor muscles. The player will miss approximately three weeks. The official site revealed on its pages
While this is another blow to the team, I think it will force Schuster to give more confidence and have more faith in players like Miguel Torres, Metzelder and Marcelo. Heinze has been under-performing recently and has made many costly mistakes, so I'd say his absence would not be REALLY noticed, on the contrary, our defense might improve with him out of the starting eleven
Meanwhile, Marca reports that Fabio Cannavaro and Arjen Robben are close to a full recovery from their respective injuries and could make their comeback this weekend against Getafe.
The Dutchman injured himself while warming up in the match against Juventus, while the Italian legend got injured against Valladolid.
Both are crucial for us especially Robben because we don't have a winger as effective as him. Drenthe tried to replace him, but he has failed miserably so far with shaky performances against Huelva and BATE.
There isn't any news on the other players, however, there is a rumor that De La Red will get back to training this week. Higuain is still doubtful for the Getafe game though.
Have I missed something?
Hala Madrid!
I dont think that this injury will matter much because we have marcelo and miguel torres to play who i rather play because they have more speed than him but its good news that robben and cannavaro are close to back and now i hope de la red and diarra and higuain come back next weekend vs sevilla
good news that robben and cannavaro will be back, i saw on www.realmadrid.dk that real will sign Zarate and the whole directory, Schuster and Mijatovic are agreiing on this step
, let's hope they can made this sigining
...
the second thing is that calderon saying that Arshavin is on his way
, and that Juve are encourajing us for a Trezeguet deal for about 15 sterling millions, i really think that he still got the form and the talent of a pure striker, what do you think guys?
first of....THERE IS A GOD! heinze injured and out! YES!!!!!!!!!
glad that our guys are recovering and expected back. I pray that DeLaRed makes it soon too. I love to see him play. He's young and very talented. As for all those players realmadrid.dk and other outlets reporting that are coming.....I think I shall wait and see. And even though I agree Trezeguet is a good striker, signing him will go against what I believe and that is real need younger players. We already have 2 strikers over 30! Real don't need to go looking for strikers every 2-3 years. We need a young raul who will last 14-15 years.
Well, with the return of canna, then ramos can return to his ideal position, then, we'll have a great defence, ramos-pepe-canna-marcelo, who wont make lots of foolish mistake that made us conceded. Treze is great, but he unable to compete against alex and amauri in juve, so i dont know how he played lately, hey, i heard a rumour that we might get drogba. I believe that he's similar with ruudtje, powerful and lethal in front of net, but his temper is simply awful, that's his only weakness, anyone could confirm it? Hala Madrid!!
who else here thinks we need some more talented argentines? pablo aimar anyone? AND mauro zarate? NOT heinze.. i know some madridistas who actually were happy when they found out he was injured.. heinze has been very poor lately, bad tackles, stupid fouls, VERY poor clearances, just sell the guy!! and metzleder.. he cannot play in spain, the game is just too fast for him, wel madrid's play.. we need a right back, ramos is the best defender we have.. play him center back more, along with pepe.. and please play marcelo as left back.. no one else..
UPDATE: Calderon has prmoised to deliver two or three world-class signings in June and has said that in the the next week or so, he'll announce two new signings. This is his description, "There will be two young, promising, attacking players who will come to help the team and they will be able to play in the Champions League." I'm so excited as it's great that this guy finally realised that we don't need Ronaldo
As for my prediction, one of these two mystery signings will be Di Maria for sure and th other wills will be Huntelaar or Zarate. They're the only ones that really fit the description and would really move. The only other possible young players would be Brazillians but i'm sure Calderon knows that they wouldn't help us in the CL. Hala Madrid!
falcao might be one of these.. hez a talented, young striker, potential like higuain..

I can pretty much guarantee Canna will play as he recovers at the speed of light wen he gets injured and hopefully Robben will make Getafe too. The problem is that if Higuain and Diarra don't make training tommorrow then we'll have to without them
I'm pleased to see Robben being more determined as he's lacked it over the years. I just have a question, is Getafe on Saturday or Sunday, Saturday is so much easier for me
Hala Madrid!
