Schuster: Who Could Save My Ass?
There are many names mentioned in the press and new ones pop up everyday. I'm only going to talk about those who could move to a club like Real Madrid and not about those who dream and wish they could move to Real Madrid, those including Vanger Love and Amr Zaki (no offense though).
Alright, so lets start with Carlos Teves. He plays for Manchester United but since ever they signed Barbatov he hasn't played that much. He is fast, he has good dribbling skills, good ball control, but what I don't like about him is that he is inconsistent and his attitude on and off the pitch isn't that good.
Additionally, we are looking for one who should be as good as Ruud, someone who could play a similar role and in this case, Tevez isn't the ideal candidate.
Karim Benzema, on the other hand, can to some point do Ruud's job. He can play as a stand-alone striker, he is physically strong, talented and young so he could be used for short-term and long-term purposes, however, there is one problem and that is his club, Lyon.
Their president is a smart person who knows how to negotiate well. Benzema's buy-out-clause is approximately 50m euros and with competition from the likes of Barcelona, AC Milan and Chelsea, it would be pretty hard to sign him.

This is the best news I've heard so far: Real Madrid Tell Robinho To Fuck Off! Awesome! Yeah, they are not going to let him go easily. Actually, Calderon held talks with Robinho and his agent and made clear to them that there is no way that he leaves. Done.
However, Chelsea officials are still hoping to snatch the kid. Wagner Ribeiro, Robbie's agent has said this to the Daily Star:
"I will try and do everything possible to get this resolved,"
"It is what Chelsea and Peter Kenyon want but there is no way they will pay what Madrid want."
So what does Madrid want in terms of money? Well, at least 35m euros. And Robinho says that is top...
