re: LN Muslim Jesus Leaves a Holy Land for a Heathen Land?

Again, I really don´t know what is going to happen.

There is SO much quality on this side, along with the logically corresponding egos, that whatever shakes out (according to Carletto´s strongly influenced by Flo final side), will cause dressing room discontent.

Flo is enamored with Benzemá, let´s not forget (and that bastard is just as big a brick around the neck of a sinking swimmer as Higuaín was), and he hasn´t been sold.

I once again, do not know what to say.

Obviously, but we both know Ancelotti won't play like that

Isco has had a good couple of weeks, but he is not in the same stratosphere of Mesut wrt picking up Ronaldo's runs. He is young. Brilliant, but young. I am really tired of watching Ronaldo peel off of the back line while Isco has his head buried in the ground.

---

Isco never has his head buried. Never. He simply knows what´s best for the side.

Mesut was signed to feed CRon, and it has been costing him tremendously, to break free of this.

I love the Turk, I really do, and feel sorry for him.

I think the Portuguese is next to go.

ETA He´s not infallible, of course.

Ancelotti wants a balanced, modern player in the middle. Özil isn't that

There is no one on the planet who can convince me that Real Madrid was better off dwelling on the ball while Betis was pushed way the frick up, and Ronaldo was moving off the ball as Ronaldo does.

Mesut and Ronaldo are perfect for each other because Ronaldo is brilliant off the ball, and Mesut is a fricking master of using available space. Ancelotti and Mourinho (circa last year. He did buy him, TBF) have negatively affected Mesut.

infallible

Definitely not. Ronaldo is a weird player who does some dumb shite. He is still amazing, though. Any team would be fricking retarded to dump him right now.

Isco will play well in Madrid for a long fricking time. While he has been playing excellently, there are some things that he can improve upon.

This was the first match of the season, and Betis looked very good. Correct?

Mesut was a poor buy by Mourinho, taking into account who he is, and what he wanted to play. Mesut was a great buy, from an economical standpoint.

Ancelotti is not obliged to build a system around Özil. Again, for the umpteenth time, I love him.

I think he´s not a fit in what Ancelotti wants to do. I may be wrong. Carletto may look to accomodate him this season, and possibly next. RM needs to sell him at a premium price.

Provided injuries respect him, you are correct. Yes, he´s still wet behind the ears and can improve many things, but his level of play and vision are way beyond his years.

Mourinho's philosophy at Real Madrid was strange. Mesut fit in well the year before last (it helps that he can spring a counter in his sleep). It makes me laugh that Mourinho has almost immediately gone back to Mourinho anti football

I agree with the rest

ETA: water

Had some lemon and garlic popcorn earlier

Then, had a lucky dog because frick. yes

Seeing reports that Man U is really into Mesut as well right now.

I'm sure RM is driving up the price as we speak.

Who do we think would win a price war? A desperate Moyes or an Arsene that still doesn't know numbers can get higher than 9,999,999?

I still think Arsenal is a better fit for him.

Arsene will let Ozil do whatever the frick he wants defensively. Which is why I think Arsenal is a great fit.

I agree. Which will be maybe one interception per month

If he doesn't fit Ancelottis scheme he fits Moyes even less. Not to mention Rooney and kagawa play the same role as him

Well, hypothetically Kagawa plays the same role as him. Not quite sure.
