You could tell RM were still washed in the Bayern pre-season game. They looked vulnerable defensively and Benzema scored like one chance out of 10 clear ones

If Bale goes to China he's basically retiring
You don't exist anymore as far as football is concerned
IMO he should still play at the top level and go for more glory... You can't buy legacy and he's already rich
But £1M per week
.... He would be pissed if he declines and takes a pay cut only to ride the bench at Bayern

Real don't need Pogba, Eriksen or Neymar. The same issue they had in Zidanes last season with them the first go around, is still the same issue now.
Old and slow in defence and midfield.
Maybe Zidane is just like Steve Kerr and ain't coaching...

.. how wouldn't Pogba help? Lol they need an injection of youth and competition.

Why would they buy Neymar when they just spent 120m on Hazard

I don't know if he has a hand in all their transfers but to the club's credit they signed Ferland Mendy and Eder Militao
But De Ligt should've been Real's number #1 target

Joao Felix looks impressive 
Smh, Costa, type of player to carry you to a cup final, and miss the final because he got a red card in the semi final

Pogba replaces Modric, but that still doesn't solve the defensive issues. The same issues they had in the 17/18 season with younger versions of the players they have now.
Kroos, Isco, Carvajal, Nacho, Odriozola, Marcelo, Modric, Ramos. Either too slow, too old or not up to scratch anymore. Just adding Pogba isn't going to fix that.
Pogba is at his best when he has a runner alongside him and who is the runner at Real? Pogbas best run of form at United, he had Herrera doing the running for him. And as someone is going to bring up the World Cup, he only had Kante and Matuidi playing alongside him, 2 of the best b2b runners of the 10's.
The way some of y'all talk about Pogba like he is Yaya, Vieira, Davids, Matthaus, Rijkaard and while he is an excellent player who can do a bit of everything he isn't the all-rounder like they were.

Mendy has more chance of replacing Marcelo than Militao has of replacing Varane/Ramos if everyone is fit. And don't forget the pressure of playing for Real is infinite times more than playing for Lyon and Porto, how will they handle the ungrateful Real fans and media, if they don't hit the ground running straight away.

I like Cutrone dog chasing after a Frisbee mentality and that he has a knack of scoring goals off the bench. But he is limited as shyt. And in Giampaolo football you need to be technically good and he ain't. Cutrone at best is a squad player at the highest level, but his actual skill level is of a bygone era.

If ever there was a player who would score a hattrick/4 goals and still get a red card. Diego Costa.
