Now that Jose is coming, he would prefer a 3 man midfield imo, if that happens,
ARDA, Bellingham, Valverde, Tchouameni, Nicole Paz or Endrick (one of them would play RW I guess)
So we clearly have to bench someone,
Arda must be a starter, Bellingham would be preferable over Valverde. (I love Valverde but it makes the most sense)
So Sell Valverde And Tchouameni (or arrange some other plan for valverde)
Sell Tchouameni? YES, ik he is one of our best players, but the problem is Trent, TAA can do amazing assists and passes, but is only decent at defense.
So, sell Tchoua to Man UTD, replace Tchoua withTrent in a DM position (Kind of like Kimmich at bayern) , and get Gvardiol or a proper RB.
Trent is a star signing, he won't go nowhere, we have to work with this.
Now obviously, I'm not some pro, this is just my suggestion and nothing more.
Pls let me know if this is a flawed strategy Lol.
MOURINHO TO MADRID

Saw this clip of Michael Owen talking about how modern football is more about athleticism, pressing and systems than pure technical ability.
He argues that in today’s game, players don’t necessarily need elite skill anymore if they can run, press and fit the system.
Made me think about how Real Madrid always seems to balance both, technical brilliance + physical intensity at the top level but is he right?
Genuinely curious what people think on this one.
Looking back, that 2010 semi-final at Camp Nou felt less like a normal tactical battle and more like a psychological fight between two managers at their absolute peak.
Once Inter went down to 10 men, the entire dynamic of the tie shifted and everything became about control, emotion, and how both sides reacted under pressure.
Mourinho kicked prime Barcelona out and won the UCL vs Bayern that year.
Do you think Mourinho actually got the better of Guardiola in that tie mentally, or was it simply Inter executing a perfect defensive plan & can you expect this version of Jose, if he does come back?
The Real Madrid shirt is white. It can stain of mud, sweat and even of blood, but never of shame
Perez is currently fighting the politcal power in Spain who want to take over Real Madrid.
You can tell in his recent interviews he is pissed with all the maneauvering from the government to create propaganda against Perez and take over Madrid, as we are opposing La Liga and the Federation on account of them being in cahoots with the Negreira escandal.
Perez has NEVER been a great communicator, and he has always been badmouthed and, honestly, quite funny and charismatic.
At worst, this is just a nothingburger, but there is a real risk of these media backed by Iberdrola / Galán taking over the club.
Just to wrap up: one of the main guys backing the contender is the son in law of the Iberdrola president, and they were caught trying to create a fake child prostitution scandal against Florentino. Look up Villarejo.
I think if we call for Perez to be sacked, whoever takes over the club, we are going to regret for years to come.
Hail Papa Perez!
