The Daily Merengue is a place where you can feel free to d all things football. Do not be alarmed by the overt RMCF bias. It’s in the name! Shoutout to the mods who do a fantastic job, Valyrian Steel, Felipejack, Juninho, NeRObutBlanco and yours truly, Kung_Fu_Zizou
They Chose Fran over Miguel
Ancelotti was never impressed with Miguel Gutierrez. Miguel seemed impressive enough under Zidane and even with few appearances with Ancelotti who seemed almost offended that Miguel was not a defensive
What About Mendy and Fran?
Alaba has hardly played since his first season at the club. I’m a fan of his game with defensive issues and all. His calmness and range of passing is always missed when we have the ball. All that said, the club has to payout his contract.
Woe is Me
Poor old Real Madrid. All their defenders are always injured. Such a shame.. If only they had a world class academy that produces players they sell and then consider buying back the same player. At some point it starts to look silly. These are not entirely unpredictable events.
Nah!
The only rationale for Tah is that Xabi wants him for comfort.
Theo On the way back
NEW: Theo Hernández TICKS many of the boxes for Real Madrid & he’s ON the list.
• He’s experienced and in his prime
• His price would be favorable as his contract expires in 2026
• He would easily adapt
• He’d be open to return@diarioas pic.twitter.com/Oy7Ah9X3gf— Madrid Xtra (@MadridXtra) May 3, 2025
