The Real Madrid makeover is looking like it’s continuing as they appear to be after highly rated Lyon striker Karim Benzema. Reports are saying they will drop £30m to try and bring him to The Bernabeu. With Ribery reportedly heading to Real Madrid as well, this is just starting to get ridiculous.

    Obviously that ass-whoopin’ Barca gave them at the Bernabeu REALLY hurt. Ridiculous off-season.

    With this much raw talent and ego, the Real Madrid coach is going to have a challenge in bringing all together as a functioning team. It’s going to be interesting to watch La Liga this year.

    Pellegrini’s head will be on the chopping block this season for sure…with the axe resting on his neck.
