I'd take Benzema all over them.
I think all 3 would be better for us right now because we probably will have Matri for next season, and I think Matri with any of those 3 players behind him will be better than Matri with Benzema next to him. Hazard and Sanchez can also play multiple positions if we want to switch to 433 and need someone who's able to play there.

Because many class players have gone there and failed. Yet shined when moved away from Madrid.
But this is a different Madrid side, not your daddy's Madrid. Mourinho is probably the world's best and usually gets the best out of his players.

Benzema has shown himself to be out of shape at times and lazy, so Jose doesn't prefer him. That's not a good sign.

Mourinho is not the world's best (That's a different discussion) and you don't need to go back to our daddy's days as only two years ago Real was selling Robben and Sneijder.
Mourinho didn't play Balotelli either, Balo is still a raw talent. If Mourinho doesn't prefer Benzema it doesn't mean shit.

You're right. Random internet opinions carry more weight.

Benzema is overrated around these parts. I wouldn't take him for more than 15.

Lyon's Benzema isn't overrated.
Benzema on 8 mln wages not fitting in Real Madrid only sitting home playing PS3 and gaining weight priced 30 mln euro is overrated. I agree with you, anything over 15 mln and we would be robbed.

No wages over 4M either. If he plays well then he can receive a raise.

If he won't take a cut from Madrid, screw him.

Why is he at the "wrong club"?
He is a bench warmer at RM, where he is competing with Ronaldo and Higuain (who stepped up his game and who was already used to life in Madrid). He is only 23 years old, do you realize how young this is for a striker? especially in a club like Madrid? Not mentioning the amount of talented players who couldn't make it at Madrid.

But this is a different Madrid side, not your daddy's Madrid. Mourinho is probably the world's best and usually gets the best out of his players.

Benzema always had has skill, but lacked hard work. He has gained the much needed form since Adebayor arrived. Players like him deserve another chance.

Benzema is class, but I'd definitely take Aguero or Tevez over him. But nonetheless, I'd jump for joy if we signed him. Make it happen Juventus. (<--- Oxymoron)

Benzema I doubt will leave Madrid. Aguero is going to be tough due to the bidding war that will probably happen but Tevez has stated he wants to go to Italy and well His only option would be Inter or Juve. Due to all the Argentines at Inter we'd obviously has to convince him How Merda Inter Merda really is. My opinion Tevez should be first option for Forwards but keep tabs on Agueros situation. Mid field needs another shuffle with Melo out and Lass in add Pirlo (Yes hes 31 but his distribution is bar non one of the best in the world) Add Bastos for the LW and Drenthe for LB (I am sure if offered a starting position he wont care about playing LB) Add Beck on the RB with Krasic at RW, then Pirlo has some some serious fire power on those wings to pass too. Whether we have the money or the right Sporting Director to complete all these transfers, who knows? I think with that line up we would have a squad thats able to compete on all levels. Hopefully we add a proper manager as well!

A line up id be confident in..

Buffon
Beck Bonucci Chiellini Drenthe
Lass
Krasic Pirlo Bastos
Matri/Quag Tevez/Aguero


Not the best but very competitive and I think very possible if Marotta and Agnelli smarten up and add a proper manager who doesnt ask for mediocre players

Buffon
Cassani-Bonucci-Chiellini-Cissokho
Krasic-Inler-Melo-Vargas
Matri-Aguero​

In:Cassani(Amauri+5M), Cissokho(18M), Inler(15M), Vargas(Martinez+6M), Aguero(35M)=79M euros
Out: Giovinco, Iaquinta, Sissoko, Tiago, Grygera, Manninger, etc. (I don't count Amauri and Martinez here) can get us something like 20 M euros
