The appointment of Zidane, a great supporters’ favourite after his successful time with the club as a player, has generated plenty of excitement as fans hope he can have a similar impact in Madrid as Pep Guardiola did at Barcelona.
The new manager Zinedine Zidane is however a huge fan of Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard leading to suggestions that the Frenchman’s vast likeness towards the Belgian might lead to a strong Madrid interest thus unsettling Bale at the Santiago Bernebeu.
Active social media personality Ferdinand asked his followers who their club should go for in the transfer window, specifically asking for “realistic targets”.
Luis Suarez could face up to a three-match ban for confronting the Espanyol players in the tunnel after the game, but any sanction would take effect in the Cup leaving him free to face Granada.
The former Tottenham boss, who managed the Welsh wiz from 2008 to 2012, has a feeling that some strings are being pulled to get Bale from Real Madrid to Old Trafford. Only Barcelona have lost less games than the Galicians and if Real are to win the game they will have to work hard to earn it.
Real Madrid will be looking to win a trophy this season after ending last season without winning any major title. “You can’t have three players who don’t defend”.
Depor have been beaten on each of their last eight visits to the Bernabeu, but have been in good form so far this season, losing just three times and now sitting seventh in the table. “I do not want that. That is what I want to bring and going forward we’ll see”. “Signings neither, I have a big squad and am satisfied with it”.
“James and Isco are important players, very good players”.

“Still, the most important thing is for them to remember that the team comes first”.
