10 years of FIFI was thinking to sign him at the next season to replace Handa if he cannot accept being benched this season, unfortunately he is already demanding to leave.

"Plenty good" when listing a declining Benzema and an unproven Vinicius Jr. seems a little strong, but, to write in short form what I wrote five paragraphs about on Reddit a few days ago, I don't think Madrid is going to arse themselves into making a super high-profile forward signing at this point because there's not a Ronaldo-type replacement forward available, and no amount of money is going to force that player into existence. Furthermore, Hazard is another left-sided attacker, and that's not an area Madrid is weak at right now. Where they are lacking is on the right side, unless they keep Bale pinned over there (his weaker side, mind you) and even then, Bale has trouble staying on the field and there's not much in the way of depth over there. Vazquez is an industrious player with strong work-rate but has very little creativity moving forward. Zidane loved his playstyle as an off-the-bench player but, no matter how Madridismo the guy might possess, I don't think terribly many Madrid fans would be happy seeing him playing regular starting XI minutes.

10 years of FIFReal Madrid has very talented players in their team and despite that they haven't made any big purchase so far, their team is still good enough unless Modric leaves eventually, they would need a top quality player to replace him. Vinicius Jr is rather a long term purchase though.
Asensio is super talented player and he has already made difference last season, so he will probably get more responsible in the upcoming season and IMO he is good enough to be a starter in their team. They also have Isco who is able to play out wide as well as other positions. Players like Vasquez and Vinicius Jr are rather additional choices which gives them extra options to be more unpredictable.
The one who was declining was CR7 actually. He isn't the same player anymore but the hype is still the same because of his reputation. He cannot beat his man and is rather lazy. The biggest problem with Real Madrid would have been Modric's departure as he's their engine.
Benzema is quite annoying at times but he can still deliver I think, meanwhile Bale looks pretty sharp and think he will flourish in the upcoming season alongside Asensio, I guess they will take more responsibility from now on.

''On Diego Godin, his agent engaged in interesting tactics. Agent approached @ManUtd and said player was keen to join. United made an approach to @atletienglish but within hours, Godin signed new, improved deal worth 7.5million euros a year! Nice!''

It's still monumentally stupid that these leagues have different deadline days. Make all of them the same, I don't care if the seasons start on different weekends. This is painfully avoidable nonsense.

Yeah it seems this Godin to Juve/Man Utd was just negotiation tactic by the agent. My guess is that the agent just fetched contract offers from these clubs so that he had some leverage in contract extension negotiations and Godin never had any intention to leave.

Which makes perfect sense. Atleti is a top-5 club in the world, genuine Champions League contender, play in Madrid and have a beautiful stadium. Godin is also a fan favorite. There's no reason to leave.

The most impressive thing is he was utter shit for Barcelona whenever he was used. Especially against Levante he was comical. This transfer happened only thanks to his world cup performances.
