Evening Toffees

Karim Benzema

Whats the verdict

Overated
Good
Class act ?

Goat · June 21, 2009

Good, strong, very skilful, huge ego.

Blue Wiz · June 21, 2009

Depends on the pricetag.

But I'd love to see him here. I think he's a very good player.

heatmeiser · June 21, 2009

Quite fit.

I would anyways.

bluebloodinmyveins · June 21, 2009

Very very good player. Will score loads of goals if he goes to Manure. Tevez type of player in that he never gives up and always gives his all. Far better all round player than Tevez though, and a deadly finisher too.

Only seen him on France and he looked pretty lousy, though so did Tierry Henry when he played for France.

Joining Real as well now...

BBC SPORT | Football | Europe | Real Madrid agree on Benzema deal

This is just getting silly - though means even more of their existing good players on the transfer list.

Mate of mine is a massive Manure fan and he's pissed off big time because he cant think of any "big name" out there that's going to fit into their team at the moment. No Tevez, Ronaldo, Benzima, Ribery...they all want to play for Madrid or Barca.

Even the big clubs are finding it hard to buy big names this year.

People say that the Premier League is the best league. Don't think this will be the case in a few years

Bruce Wayne · July 2, 2009

As Alonso said recently, La Liga with the Spanish tax rules and strong Euro can afford to pay players more than our clubs can, and money talks.

Been reading that. The tax rules coming into the UK are stinging transfers in the few years. Man Citeh wont give a [Poor language removed] about it though.

Ribery is also reported as saying he wants to go to Real too.

Goat · July 2, 2009

Real are playing FM with full cheats. Stupid really........

Imagine a team with Ronaldo, Ribery and Kaka in. Oh my.

I can't figure out what system they'd play :unsure:

Maybe summat like

--Casillas--
--Ramos--Albiol--Pepe--Heinze/Marcelo--
--Gago--Diarra--
--Ronaldo----Kaka----Ribery????
Benzema

Different if they buy someone like alonso or mascherano, or dont buy ribery
Robben on the left??

Then where does that leave Raul??? He'll not be happy
