I like Alaba and I am glad Madrid

got a player with his flexibility as he can play 3 positions very well. My concern is his injury history. I don't want any more injury headaches at Madrid.

Ramos, and his games of chicken with Madrid are always interesting. Last contract, he was on his way to ManU until the very last moment. Personally, I have never cared for Ramos though I recognize his legendary status and what he has meant to the national team in particular.

Point blank...I would not sign him for the 2 more years he wants. So many miles on those legs and his pace and production have seriously dropped off this year. I know Madrid is haunted by the ghosts of San Iker, Raul, and Cristiano...legends who left...but father time catches everyone and it's Ramos' turn at the old age deli counter.
