Morinho changing Real Madrid

Morinho changing Real Madrid

There are many ways Mourinho is changing Real Madrid. The 3 ways he is changing Real Madrid now are as follows. To some these may be a bit too obvious, but it never hurts to state the obvious, one more time. So here we go:

• Mourinho is planning to take Casillas’s captains arm band and giving it to someone else.

Preferably an outfielder. That is something he has done in his all previous teams. Terry at Chelsea, Zanetti at Inter and now someone other than Casillas at Real Madrid. According to reports, this is will make Real Madrid a bit stronger on the field when it comes to talking to the referee as Casillas is always far too away from the action.

Casillas will still be in charge of other affairs that a captain normally handles like negotiating bonuses and such. The only thing he would be stripped off would be his armband on the pitch. I think Mourinho, in all likelihood, will give it to Ronaldo. Ronaldo is a leader on the pitch when it comes to picking up a team and performing well (though not so well against the Elite clubs) and most of all, he is big and powerful.

He is an outfielder too, so he is the perfect candidate for captaining Real Madrid. Though it has to be said that Mourinho should show a bit more respect to Casillas by giving him a chance to improve his communications while on the field. One could legitimately say that Casillas has captained Spain both at the world cup and in the Euros and they did pretty well at those tournaments didn’t they?

Some may see this as a move only to beat Barcelona. Ofcourse, everything Real Madrid are doing right now is to overtake Barcelona. There is no other team that can match Real Madrid at the moment and we showed that last season. Not even Barcelona when we are on song.

• Second way Mourinho is changing Real Madrid is by signing Coentrao.

The deal is far away from being complete. The player has run away from his club to Spain in order to hold talks with Real Madrid so that means that Benfica no longer have the upper edge in this deal . The player wants to leave and wants to leave bad. This leaves Benfica in no position to demand an asking price.

Chelsea are said to be interested in the player as well and they are ready to offer 30 million. Question is why? They have cole. Coentrao is definitely not going to play on the bench even for Chelsea. He has no time for that. It has been a tough journey for Coentrao in rising to the top of the world in his position and I think he will respect that.

Benfica say that the offer made by Real Madrid is not enough. Real Madrid say that it should be enough. So lets see what develops.

• Mourinho might also change Real Madrid if he decides to sell some key players

Reports have it that Chelsea are interested in Pepe. Pepe is said to be not so happy at the lack of progress on his current deal at Real Madrid. Isn’t that what the media always say about a player who is settled at Real Madrid. Could they not find another reason?

Anyway, I do not think Mourinho would remain at Real Madrid if Pepe is sold. He is our midfield general, especially against Barcelona. Take into account the fact that Chelsea did not cooperate when Mourinho wanted to sign Essien for Inter and I think for Real Madrid too. So don’t expect Mourinho to block this deal just to get in equal terms with Chelsea.

What do you guys think? Should Real Madrid swap Pepe with Essien?
