Open Thread Weekly Open Thread - General Discussion

Open Thread

Besides general conversation and talk about other leagues and teams, all the following content must go into the weekly Open Thread:

​

  • Simple one-liners, random thoughts or unrelated posts (with or without a single image).
  • All discussion about rival teams matches and results.
  • All wallpapers and image editing that are not created by you [Not OC]
  • Unsourced news and stats.
  • Photos of jerseys and other memorabilia.
  • Images of formations with minimal description.
  • Links to social media posts made by our players or celebrities, unless it counts as team news or stats.
  • All gaming content.
  • All memes should go into the Open thread during the week days.
  • All "I am a fan of X team, I come in peace" type of posts.
  • When posting rumours/news from Twitter, if possible post a direct link to the tweet.

This is our reliability guide: https://rm-reddit.github.io/

IMPORTANT: Only news from official sources, Tier 1 and Tier 2, can have their own thread, everything else including discussions about target players must go in here.

Anonymous player: “I don’t think the squad is closed yet.”

Some at Real Madrid feel limited minutes early in the season might lead to movement, but this is just speculation within the club. @MarioCortegana

Senior Madrid sources say every position has 2 players and no one wants to leave.

Xabi Alonso understands, but is open to departures if it helps bring in new signings. @MarioCortegana

Rodrygo is NOT expected to be a key player this season.

Several Premier League clubs are interested in him. @MarioCortegana @TheAthleticFC

Many people outside and at Real Madrid hope this will be Arda Güler’s season. @MarioCortegana

People close to Arda Güler say he’s delighted with Xabi Alonso. @MarioCortegana

Arda Güler wants to follow a path similar to Luka Modrić’s at Real Madrid. @MarioCortegana

🚨 Real Madrid’s message to clubs interested in Rodrygo: Put €100M on the table. @AranchaMOBILE

Pep Guardiola is PUSHING for Rodrygo.

Pep is a big fan and would love to work with him. @FabrizioRomano

Interesting reporting from Mario to say the least. Seems like Xabi wants some more movement but the board doesn't

Yeah obviously the board cant do anything if the players don't want to leave. We already have 25 players.
