LOL, madrid surely have lots of debt. Perez would DIE­ IN POVERTY!!!

Oh, and a message to all Madrid Fans: ­ The real test comes when the players play. Signing­ them is EASY, but seeing whether they will play as a­ team is DIFFICULT. Good luck, and if u ask me, they­ probably get owned by barca.

Real is the best team in this world, hahahahaha this­ is the best joke, which world ? do u call madrid is the­ world or what. do u have a tv or shall i buy u 1, are u­ still crying about the 60's when they won few­ champions league when there were nobody is playing, do­ u call real is a team or football club. What every body­ now is real should play anything except football, they­ pay these amount of money to compete with others, they­ steal the players because they steal the money as well.­ Soon they will be in second division. bye bye real,­ bunch of animals trying to be football players.

they are one of they richest teams in the world so face­ it mr platini, the times have changed as well

Comment 42. What do you mean englsh troops. Surely you­ must mean BRITISH troops

with a bit of luck barca will still ram it up them!!!

who told u they wont have result?why are u people being­ jealous and scared for all i know, real is the best­ team in the world..take it or leave it

and afterall it is a game and if a club wants to pay­ millions for a player why not, but there should be a ­ ballance between teams, not what is happening now. and­ shut the f*** up with your troops in christmas land. if­ your so into it why didn't u join the military? or­ if they are so bothered of that why did they choose­ that career? there are actors that earn 20 mil a movie.­ and lots of billioners out there, and there are­ homeless people in africa that are starving and all you­ can come up with is the army that protects you from­ what?! from being attacked cause you help U.S.A. steal­ from their land? well then you deserve it! world is not­ fair, there are people that wipe their butts with­ hundred dollar bills and ones that don't know how­ one looks like. this is not the problem here

i hate this guy and blatter. but there is a point: i­ mean transfers should take place, but when a team puts­ 250 million dollars in the bussines just to buy 4-5­ players it is abnormal. let's say a big move per­ season is not that bad, but when you have 3 big names­ joining a team you can see how­ f""""d up the things are. and also,­ teams that don't want to sell are then forced to­ sell unwillingly. you never see a spanish team having­ trouble financially, only the english and italian ones.­ either the italian and british government should be­ behind the teams more or there we should have a salary­ cap all over, that way we won't have a ronaldo­ going to madrid for cash, or a kaka leaving milan to­ help the team with their debts. you see great players­ developing at some teams and after they are bought at­ the peak of their career buy monster clubs (ronaldo to­ madrid) fabregas wants to rejoin barca later, why did­ he even come to arsenal? it's unfair having to sell­ your best players after all the effort and risks­ you've put in their development. teams like chelsea­ and real madrid ruin the game. barcelona it's the­ best example of a football club as it should be, even­ if they try to steal fabregas.

Come on Platini, This is the simple law of supply and­ demand. As long as they are more people to watch it wil­ be more money thrown into the sport. You compare diego­ maradona 30 years ago, and guess what inflation is­ everywhere and for every product including soccer­ player. if you want to limit the amount of spending and­ make team more competitive overall. just implement a­ salary cap as it is done in the US for every sport. I t­ will always be teams richer than others, do not hate­ thats the way it is. I just hope real investment pay­ off.

The way football is these days its rediculous why pay­ someone over £100,000 to kick a ball in a net and­ bonus, what about all the british troops that are­ giving there lives to protect this country from­ terriosts in afganistan, shouldn't they be the ones­ that should be on that type of money £80,000,000 for­ Ronaldo, £62,000,000 for kaka works out ronaldo is on­ £66 a second,for that money we could supply the­ equipment and supplies to English troops in­ Afganistan.Its bluddy stupid and something needs to be­ done and give that type of money who deserve it like­ the british forces not frank Lampard

The biggest problem with tossers like Platini and­ Blatter coming out and moaning about the degradtion of­ football and how it is being destroyed by money is that­ they are the very people leading it that way! Blatter­ sells the World Cup to the highest bidder every four­ years and gets paid way too much for it! Football needs­ less money-men, third parties, board members and all­ the @#$% that goes with them.

Salary cap, transfer fee cap, squad wage cap.

sidman612, The 6+5 rule failed the voting last summer.­ That rule would reduce the pool of talent available to­ the clubs. Big clubs would never want to limit­ themselves when they know that they are the only one­ who can afford world class international players. Also,­ because these clubs are business from different­ countries, they are under different laws. So there are­ a lot of legal work just to get every clubs in Europe­ to conform to a rule.

Personally, i think Real Madrid's new­ 'elite' team will end in tears. I mean, David­ Beckham was one of the best at Manchester United, and­ playing well for England, signed for Real, and now­ he's made L A Galaxy famous. Not for it's­ football. Now it's the same with C. Ronaldo, the­ reason that he was so good at Manchester United was­ that he was able to show off, do things that other­ members of the squad couldn't. His career will go­ downhill with the competition from Kaka.

personally i think Pratini is a thanker with a W not a­ TH ,, he is extremely jealous ,, what a T WAT

I don't believe it,PLATINI has actually spoken out­ against another club other than MAN CITY,about time he­ had. Also,its about time U.E.F.A. got to grips with­ clubs and there spending powers and seperated them from­ the poor and those also in heavey debt like Real­ Madrid(500m-700m euros),Manchester Utd(£700m) and­ Liverpool(£400m) who should be made to pay back all the­ money they owe first before actually being able to make­ any signings,this would enable a stable footballing­ community with commitment helping there club keep­ within means and not relying on banks or other.I­ disagree with what city have bid for certain players in­ recent months,particular kaka £100m,how rediculous
that­ is for someone who went for £56m eventually,Mr Cooke­ and co,think first and get into reality!

Well theres a big suprise the barcelona fan is upset­ with the spending power of real madrid the big rivals I­ wonder why???

i dont know about this cause u know the old­ `galacticos' that perez signed few years ago didnt­ do much favour for them like roberto­ carlos,ronaldo,figo,beckham all left them after having­ a very bad time there except for zidane which i think­ is the only good signing but he is retired. so what the­ hell madrid?

Lol . U don't know nothing. Banco Santander one of­ the biggest banks in Europe Loaned Real the money cause­ they presented a fezable plan for making profit. By the­ way Real has 500 debts before they made the 200 mil­ loan soo u see how big they are? The Real Madrid brand­ is worth billions in comparison to Man utd Chelsea or­ Arsenal .

Any1 who believes that Manu are similar to madrid is a­ moron!!! Manu have never spent more than £33m on a­ player and even then, they only bought 3 players for­ that kind of money after winning everything there is to­ win!! This shows that manu u are a well structured­ business which earns and then spends... Madrid have a­ backing from caja madrid (bank) which Franko set up in­ early 60's,.. well imagine if clubs in UK could­ write off their debt through banks like HSBC or­ Barclays lol
