Hello,
Clearly a happy day for us Madridistas, our long-term dream has finally came true, Ricardo Kaka is finally being presented as a Real Madrid player.
From RealMadrid.com
ANTICIPATED UNVEILING
He was the first player signed following the arrival of new President Florentino Perez..On Tuesday at 20:30 CET, Madridismo will witness an event that is just the beginning of the new project fans have been clamoring about. It will be a huge party with thousands of spectators on hand at the Santiago Bernabeu to celebrate the arrival of Kaka.
ARRIVAL IN MADRID
Real Madrid's new player flew in from South Africa, where on Sunday he was proclaimed champion of the Confederations Cup and named MVP of the tournament. Accompanied by his father, Kaka appeared with an ear to ear grin on his face. After a brief stop at the Mirasierra Suites Hotel, the footballer was taken to Sanitas La Moraleja Hospital, where at 9:30 he underwent a complete medical checkup.
PERFECT BILL OF HEALTH
Kaka's first stop was Sanitas La Moraleja Hospital, where he arrived at 9:30 accompanied by his father. He underwent the required medical checkup including blood and urine samples, an electrocardiogram, an echo, an MRI, a thorough locomotor test and x-rays. "Today's tests confirmed that the player is in perfect condition to play top-class football," stated Carlos Diez, Chief of Real Madrid's Medical Services.
FIRST CONTACT WITH FANS
Kaka was stunned by a large group of fans as he exited the hospital after his medical checkup. A swarm had gathered to welcome the new Madridista and express their support on such a special day. The player approached the fans to thank them and didn't hesitate to sign autographs and take pictures. It was a nice gesture on behalf of the the footballer, who is already getting a good feel of the passion felt for his new team.
UNPRECEDENTED GLOBAL EXPECTATION
Thousands of fans will fill the stands of the Santiago Bernabeu to witness Kaka's first steps as a Madridista.

Over 170 press agencies requested accreditation to cover the presentation of Kaka. Press agencies, sports newspapers, general newspapers, and radio and television stations from around the world will be reporting on the event.
SANTIAGO BERNABEU VISIT & FIRST INTERVIEW
After completing his medical, Kaka swung by the Santiago Bernabeu for his first look at his new stadium. With grand admiration the Brazilian looked over the pitch from the Presidential Balcony. Kaka expressed interest in the methods being used to lay the new turf and took the time to greet several club employees. Following a brief tour, Kaka sat down for his first interview with Realmadrid TV as a Madridista prior to having lunch in one of the Bernabeu's restaurants with his father and Director General and Presidential Aide, Jorge Valdano

Is the presentation going to be covered live on BBC and CNN??
Reply to themadridguy:
I dont think so. What I know is that Marca.com and RealMadrid.com will broadcast them online so does Real Madrid TV which is not free to air any more
Well if Kaka's unveiling is building this much hype, I can only imagine what Cristiano Ronaldo's will do?? It would be unbelievable- would bring the whole world to a standstill literally!!
And all this while Real Madrid will become the most recognised club inthe world!!

1- RealmadridTV should be FTA (Free-To-Air) and should broadcast in all countries.
2- Realmadrid.com should move to a powerful dedicated server If they want to be the biggest club in the world.
3- They should hire me so I do all of the above.
The site is live again now ..

Reply to themadridguy:
Can u watch it??
Man, I don't like the no. 8 on the Kaka shirt!
What about u ppl??
Reply to themadridguy:
actually i think its great on Kaka,he used to wear 8 with Brasil during Ronaldinho's era
plus nobody cares if he play well with Real Madrid.
HALA MADDRID
Reply to themadridguy:
why not ??
no 5 - kaka said before , he doesn't want to be under zidane shadow. thats true...he is unique, he should have his something own.
no 22 - obviously not, it will only remind milan
no 9/10 - going to ronaldo
so actually he doesn't have any choice left .
Reply to melbournemadridista:
Ronaldo is definitely going to be 9, what was wrong with 10 for Kaka then??
Reply to themadridguy:
Correct me if I'm wrong...but doesn't Sneijder have th no.10 shirt?
Reply to Danniel:
but like gago he could swap..... he could take 5...n let him take 10
but may be it was sneijder ego.....he didn't want to let himself down.
Reply to melbournemadridista:
But the number 5 is a shirt of a defensive player in my opinion..(I know you will mention Zidane...but he's an exception XD) whilst the number 10 shirt is a shirt for a more creative player.So in that sense Gago could have taken 5 but Sneijder could not....but it doesn't matter mch to me...they're just numbers in my opinion.
Reply to Danniel:
Someone said the no. 9 and 10 were available for Ronaldo to take! Don't ask me!
Reply to themadridguy:
Goal.com!
Reply to Danniel:
thats true....as long they perform its good.....
. ( i v most of the no. of rm ,except 10
)
but when i will wear kaka's jersey , i would be more happy with 10
Reply to MadridistAli:
i think on 6th july Ronaldo would break all records,wich are Robinho with 11.000 spectators and Zidane with 400 journalists. C.Ronaldo is the best
do anyone no if ronaldo presentation will be live like kaka
Kaka's going to wear #8.
Gago's going to wear #5.
Madridistas Indonesia !!
akhirnya Ricardo Kaka diperkenalkan juga.
nomor 8 cukup bagus.
ada yang ngerti bahasa Indonesia?
On marca's portade it says that Benzema is a matter of hours. I dont believe it yet but i will be so happy if we get him. LINK
a sad day for milan
Reply to felipe:
yeah i know but on sky sports news one of benzema team mate from lyon said he is goin to join man united in a couple of days :S whata wierdo eather hes lien! hope he is why would you wana join man united when all the action is happing in madrid
saviola had number 9 didnt he?? now he moved...so ronaldo should get that or 10...hopefully we get villa or benzema one of them can wear number 9?
Lads, any truth to the line on Yahoo! Sport UK & Ireland Live transfer feature about a story going around Spain that Perez will offer a lump sum of 65 million to sign Xavi Alonso, Javier Mascherano & Alvaro Arbeloa?
Thanks & cheers mates
Great day for Kaka.. according to Perez we should have a new signing possibly today and it looks like it will be either Arbeloa or Benzema
Reply to Madridista4:
its going to be arbeloa....cyz da deal is almost done....n its also easy to get him n cheap as well
Reply to Brawley7:
I think we will sign alonso and arbeloa from liverpool! but the alonso deal has to wait, go to dailymail.co.uk..

Breaking news!! Benzema new player of real madrid look at marca and as..LINK
Yes its true... Here is marca link translated!
LINK
This signing is the craziest by far....
hala madrid! halaa madrid! haaalaaaaaaa madrid!!! hala benzema!
Shit I hope Villa doesn't go to Barca now
Villa is 28! Barca are desperate.
BTW why did we sign benzema when we have gonzalo higuain? I prefer Higuain over Benzema. It clearly means Huntelaar will leave with RVN.
Arbeloa is next. We should sign clichy or lahm for LB!!!!!!
My guess is higuain could play the left flank and benzema/raul up front
Reply to Madridista09:
Actually no .. raul will be benched mark my words
BTW Benzema hasnt agreed. Just Lyon and RM.
Maybe by the time i wake up it could be official.
35M Euros??? After lyon said they wanted 100M! wow!
Good night. Almost 4 30 US pacific time
Men that are only numbers, and maybe Gago will play better if he wears #5. But the question is why Kaka picked #8 over #9 and #10. I was thinking that CR will choose #9 or CR9 and Kaka will choose #10
the point is that you can move Gago from 8 to 5 without upsetting him, becsaue from his point of view it's really an upgrade.
You can't move Sniejder from 10 without upsetting him.
It's basic man management that led to the shirt number being 8.
I'm more interested in how they handle Ronny - probably just put him on 9.
Reply to Madridista09:
i knew this was crap
,Lyon said that there's no deal LINK any hope about Villa
?
Reply to Real Madrid-Flow Master:
well when Robinho came he was only 21 and he wasn't the best player in the world,C.Ronaldo sucks,Kaka is better thats my opinion
If I were to equate a player to a movie I would say:
Ronaldo is Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
Kaka is the Shawshank Redemption
Pepe is Fight Club
another one bites the dust

Reply to MadridistAli:
It is typical for clubs to dismiss rumors about deals until all thing is done deal
With so many of these signings happening when does the sell-off of players begin?
And who ends up being the first to go?
Reply to Brawley7:
Saviola already left the team .. I dont think there is offers for anymore players yet
Reply to EvoLtc:
...well i thought it was funny
Reply to realfreak:
this is probably a mistake since our defense has to be the most delicate area for the team next season.
My guess is that this will mean Henize will stay.
Reply to EvoLtc:
Selling metze would be a mistake yes
This is gonna be interesting according to a french radio station... Benzemas family confirm that the deal is done and dusted.... Benzema will play for the next 6 seasons for real madrid...
Also Antenna 3 (a spanish tv channel) have announced the same thing
Lets hope it happens guys because Benzema is only 21 and he is showings signs of the magic ronaldo has showed through his career.
I still feel we should go for Villa instead of Benzema- who knows? Maybe the next signing Perez is talking of is David Villa!
Reply to thedangerzolo:
We already have Garay as his replacement.

Reply to thedangerzolo:
eng translation :LINK
I would personally like to see Benzema and Huntelaar up front. That would be an awesome striking partnership.
Florentino has done the imposibble. He has taken Man U Crown Jewel, and has taken Sir Alex's #1 transfer target from them. Benzema will no doubt be a great addition but what will happen to Huntelaar and Higuain, and Raul. One of them will no doubt sit on the bench. Higuain can play out wide and as a support striker so he is more fexible. Benzema can be an all in out and drift wide. Huntelaar is a big target man and has great ball control. That just leaves Raul for bech duty and Impact sub. I just wonder what our formation will be with Ronaldo and Kaka coming in. 4-5-1, 4-4-2, or a 4-3-3? Whatdo you guys think it should be?
NOW DEFINITELY,DEFINITELY,I'M BEGGIN' YA! I WANT BENZEMA TO TAKE NO. 10!
Reply to themadridguy:
No.9 is much better
Reply to helmet_09:
It didn't hurt that Karim's personal wish was to play for Real Madrid!

Ronaldo------Kaka'-----Higuain/Robben

And I'm not entirely sure about Alonso- he lacks some pace!
Reply to helmet_09:
I think i would make some changes there
------------IKER---------
Ramos--Pepe--Albiol--Arbeloa--(sub:garay,marcelo)
-------Alonso/Sneijder--------(sub:lass)
Ribery------Kaka------Ronaldo-(sub:Guti)
-------Benzema---Higuain------(sub:Huntelaar,Raul)
Milan wants huntelaar...on loan...forget them.
Didnt man city bid 30m euro for Raul and 60M for Higuain?
Reply to Madridista09:
Raul should honestly just call it a day! And 60 mil for Higuain WHAT THE ......???
Where do u read this shit??
--------iker--------
Ramos--Pepe--Abiol--?
------Alonso-Lass------
--Kaka-----------Ronaldo
-----Higuain-Benzema------
Ist the best team ever, but i dont know The left back will be
congrats madridistas
you have now the best attack line in the world
we must now improve the midfield with X.Alonso and the defense with a good defender with Arbeloa and Ramos, we must as well keep Robben and mantain a perfect substitution line
Arbeloa is not good enough to play in left back for real
Reply to themadridguy:
Currently Marcelo is the only one we have unless we do get Arbeloa. I would take Marcelo over Heinze any day because if he gets caught out going forward Lass or Gago can slot in. Heize is a dissaster and lets face it Marcelo is the only LB we have. That is unless we sign some one else which would not surprise me. As for Alonso he is more well rounded when we compare Lass and Gago. Gago is a real rhythm killer slowing the pace and moving forward slighty more than compared to Lass. Lass is excellent ball recoverer and can slot better into a defensive position that Gago. Alonso can do all that Lass and Gago can do. He can move forward, defend, recover balls, He can do more things than Lass and Gago.
Arbeloa is not good enough to play left back
Reply to helmet_09:
Yeah I agree! Gago is certainly a NO-NO for next season! I'm wonderin' why we aren't showing him the door already, when u consider the fact that more deserving players like Robben and Hunter are reportedly being sold!
now we just need alonso in the midfield and a new LB hala madrid
Reply to themadridguy:
I think even if we get alonso...we have to keep sneijder n robben both for sub...we should sell heinze ,RVN..if we can't sell them now, we won't get any price after thid season. after all this signings what we need most is money
Reply to melbournemadridista:
I think RvN should just sit on the bench or at home and collect his money doing nothing,

But is the benzema deal done for real?
Reply to anthony wallace:
Yeah man! Check out realmadrid.com ! It's there!
Reply to helmet_09:
I couldn't agree with anymore, u are so right!! Gago is just a rhythm killer who slows down the pace and provides mistaken passes all the time. defensively, he is nowhere near lassana's level.
However, regarding to ur ideal formation. I am not quite agreed as long as there are two holding midfielders. If we play CR, Kaka, and Higuain/Robben at the same time, we must sacrifice one striker for another holding midfielder in order to keep the balance. this is something we FAILED to do in the first galactico. a ball winner(lass) + a creative holding midfielder(Xabi) will be a perfect match. Without such a jam, playing kaka, CR, or Robben will be meaningless cuz they will be hardly to get the ball back whenever dispossessed.
further, I think Arbeloa will be the best available option for LB with which we should put defense as the priority. He would only cost us couple of millions. we gotta get rid of Heinze.
Reply to Singh12:
perfect formation
Reply to DynastyofRealMadrid:
Except Arbeloa is not a LB!
With Benezema also in, I think the next one would be arbeloa .. Xabi alonso would be only after july 18 because of some clause in his agreement ..
Casillas
Ramos--Pepe---Albiol--Arbeloa
-------Lass-----Xabi Alonso----
Ronaldo------Kaka------Robben
-----------Benzema---------
As of right now most likely lineup. I dont see Ribery comming... But Higuain can start over Benzema or RObben....
I prefer Higuain over Benzema tbh.
Reply to themadridguy:
Do you know when the CR jersey will be available for sale?
Im ordering Kaka's very soon...
Reply to Madridista09:
Higuain and Benzema can play in a 4-4-2 as well. With Robben and Ronaldo on the wings, Kaka right behind the forwards and Lass right ahead of the defence. We're likely to concede more this way though but against smaller teams, this is a better formation. BTW, i'm back from my vacation everybody so expect my participation in your discussions to be back to normal. Hala Madrid!
Reply to themadridguy:
no no no he isn't only a right back. In Real Madird team B, he was already capable to play RB, CB, and LB. he can play 3 positions. He initially started his EPL career as a LB, which he showed his ability to stop Messi in a CL game at 06/07(at Nou Camp). The reason we are concerning him is that we will expect him to be our leftback. I guess even himelf will notice that it's impossible for him to get a starting spot as a RB with S.Ramos. Even for spain national team. It's better for his career if he starts to play as a LB. Arbeloa is CAPABLE TO play as LB. don't just judge him with last 2 seasons.

Im happy about the Karim Benzema signing I think its a fantastic one.. also other transfer news Metzelder is close to a switch to Besiktas.. and according to MARCA David Silva is next on the transfer list because it will be very difficult to get Ribery
Raul Albiol press conference is tonight.. So I think we will make 3 more signings.. Arbeloa,Xabi Alonso.. and either David Silva or Ribery
I am really starting to love Perez
,everything he say he do,during Kaka's presentation he said another signing will be tommorow or after and what a signing that is Benzima oh boy
,if los_galacticos's sure about Sneijder dumping the no 10 then let Cristina Ronaldo take it and give 9 to BENZIMAAAAAAAAA!
Hala Madrid!
Reply to Madridista4:
I think Ribery is only slightly better than Silva,Ribery is 26 and Silva is only 23 he has a brighter future,c'mon Perez get Silva
Reply to MadridistAli:
Silva is a fantastic passer. We need him to play possession football.
Isn't it time for "Real Madrid sign Karim Benzema thread" ??
Any new news on Xabi?
BTW Ribery has declined Bayern extension.
Ill take Silva over Ribery.
Reply to MadridistAli:
silva is better for possession football...ribery is better for counter attack..cuz he has really good pace n accuracy...so our wings would be too powerful with ronaldo n ribery on two side
LINK
Perez after silva.
We are getting this many players in one summer? Kinda scares me.
Reply to melbournemadridista:
counter attack football will not be something Pellegrini look forward to when he has abandon of great attackers in hand. however, Ribery is no doubt a great player who isn't only good at counterattack. Unlike robben, he always knows how to keep in pace with the "WHOLE TEAM" instead of dribbling himself. however, since we've got kaka and ronaldo already, Ribery would have much less space for him to create things like he used to be a France national team and Bayern Munich. In this point, Silva is definitely a more suitbale one since he is down to carry the ball less(even ribery is better in individual ability). wiht silva, our midfield will be less likely to get overcrowd. furthermore, silva can only cost just half of RIbery's cost. with his familiarity with spanish football, silva is the one i prefer for now.
for ribery, the one i highly recommanded b4 we signed CR and kaka, i will take him as a 2nd choice
Ha ha ha! Sneijder is a smart kid!
LINK
You don't get it....
Perez doesn't want Silva he wants to tell Barca not to screw his Xabi Alonso signing by trying to take Mascherano from liverpool...because liverpool won't let go of both of them...
And valencia likewise won't let go of Silva and Villa.... so he's sending a message
"Screw my alonso deal and I'll screw your villa deal!"
Perez = Genius
All these signings are excellent, but I'm wary of Pellegrini's ability to manage superstars! I don't why but I feel Pelle is gonna flop like Juande!
Reply to Madrids_Martyr:
No I think Perez is gonna buy either Silva or Ribery- whoever is available and affordable. And he is gonna say adios to Robben-like it or not,apparently Valdano does not like bald Dutch wingers!
BENZEMAAAA! is the future of attack in RM as well as Pipitta, all 2 will ruin the best defences and mark my words , one of them will hold the ballon D'or in the next coming years, CL glory is very near, just one midfielder and a LB and we must trust Robben he's a good 2nd choice winger, many players to offload yes indeed, not RM class for sure, Heinze , M.Torres, loan VDV and sell/loan RVN,
and the new stars too, Perez is a Genius and ZIDANE is a master , BARCA fans are living nightmares now
M.diarra could be sold, he had bad luck with the injury, Hunter should be loaned to milan, and Salgado thanks for the big efforts, it's time to leave,Javi Garcia go to team B,and we have a new Dream team, let's hope the selling of Kaka shirts will be higher
what better to say than a HALA MADRID

No probs mate
but even if I was wrong...that's the whole reason I wrote the whole "correct me if I'm wrong" thing...it means I'm not sure about it.
Sneijder currently has #10. When he first arrived to madrid he had #23 beacuse Robinho had #10. When he left last year, Sneijder took it. That same year Vandervart was signed and he took #23. Hope this helps to clear things!
Raul will start this following year. If anyone who considers himself a soccer fan or somebody that understands soccer, would appreciate what Raul does for Madrid. I won’t argue that Raul is not the same Goaleador as he used to be, but he still scores an avrg. Of 20 per season, which is great. But the most important thing that he brings to this team is that inspiration/effort/dedication and passion he has for Madrid. On top of all these things, all Madrid players are proud to have a captain like Raul, never got a red card, never got suspended or got into any fight... he is pure class and players and even Refs respect him. Raul is a smart and honest guy, he will leave when he knows he cant help anymore.

Its not funny even as a joke. Anybody who watch, play, remember football knows Real Madrid. @melbournemadridista David Silva deal has yet to resurface. I'm still hoping for his arival.
