Hello guys and Eds just passing on what i'm hearing not sure if its reliable or not maybe You could find out for us Ed but is it true we are considering a bid for Kroos from Madrid?
{Ed018's Note - I'm afraid to ask. I can't imagine him leaving Madrid}

Where does everyone read that Kroos could move here or there? I've seen questions about him on the Pool and Arsenal or United pages.

Yeah - I read something like Liverpool bid for Kroos and a Liverpool fan laughed at that news and comment that he wouldn't be fool enough to believe in the rumour.
One of the reason that we did not go for Kroos that time was the annual cost will be so high. Even the transfer fee is just around 25 mil EURO (he was in his last year at Bayern), he used it as a reason to ask for hefty salary.
I don't think that new is real at all.

Personally I think that chances to sign Kroos or Pogba are 0% at least this summer.
Benitez is so good coach that he will never sell players like Kroos, Bale or Isco. The same goes for Varane, Ramos, Ronaldo or Benzema. Where he can find better players?
Sometimes I am wondering how would Chelsea look like if Benitez was appointed as Chelsea manager instead of Mourinho.

Interesting antibot I agree about the chances of signing kroos and pogba but do not understand your thoughts on benitez. We are talking about the manager who wanted to get rid of alonso?

I don't like Benitez personally, but I think he's a really good manager though. Tactically he's very astute and also likes his teams to set up well defensively.
And I agree, antibot, I don't think Benitez would want to let his star players go. But then you can ask yourself the question whether he has a whole lot of input into transfers. Real Madrid isn't your average run club, they're pretty special.

Benitez is a cup manager he rearly does well in the league because he constantly rotates and if u look at the time he spent at Liverpool u would hardly say his transfer policy was good he brought Torres and alonso yes but about 50 other useless players and spent lots of money doing so he ruined mourinhos inter Milan team in 6 months and he didn't do much at Napoli either he won a cup that was it although I didn't expect them to beat juve to a league to be honest
