Yours, Mine The NDF: should sign a striker Real Madrid?

Since Gonzalo Higuain had to stop racing because of the hernia or illness, the issue of whether the Real Madrid should sign a striker in the January is our daily bread. First we had to Jose Mourinho predicting that the surgery was inevitable and, therefore, everything was being done to prevent a waste of time, then gave us the now famous parable of dogs and cats, and finally, after receiving a touch by their bosses to tone down, has dedicated just to recall that it had warned before the League for two strikers were inadequate.

But this story has taken a new turn since last night Jorge Valdano admitted to the chambers of Canal + that the club was seeking a new target on loan until June 30. So Football Notes bring to the fore the question: Do you think that Madrid should sign a striker?

Sanxurxo Bruno: Yes, must bring a Nine Madrid Mourinho

From the beginning I agreed with Mourinho: two strikers is not enough for a team like Real Madrid. On paper it may appear that Benzema Higuain and covered with about the post, but the Luso coach had every reason in the world when, standing at my worst, speculated on the possibility that one of the two suffered from a prolonged injury. And unfortunately happened: Higuain will be sidelined for between four and six months.

So Madrid is bound to bring a striker to Mourinho. The only ones you have in the squad is the squad Benzema and Morata seems to tell, but I think that from February, after finishing the term of contracts, more minutes to be safe. Yes, it is true that Cristiano Ronaldo could play center forward, but that is not your ideal position, surely would mark many goals but his influence over the team's game would be affected by having to play back. And let us be a hypothetical case:

What if Benzema is injured for a couple of months? The Madrid can not afford to get hot when the season without a striker. So no choice but to hire a Nine. The choice of the transfer, which is what the club seems to have taken, okay, but do not rule out a signing. For example, do not know if Adebayor would fit into this, but I think Klose could come with a contract beyond this season and, with the back of Higuain for next year, could be sought out if you still convince Benzema anyone. A striker such as German, that's not counting minutes in Bayern would not see anything bad happen to not have to Van Gaal to be an alternate class in Madrid. Anyway, what the names of future events I leave to you.

Daniel churches: No, Madrid must turn to other alternatives

The key to my answer is at the time of the season where we are. If I ask this question in June, I would have said yes, that Real Madrid should sign a striker. We can not have a club of this size to play the season with two men. But the answer change if you ask the question, as is the case in the middle of January.

What will happen now fiche patch. No name does not sound really convincing or worthwhile. Adebayor is a controversial player, a pump to the locker room that if he gives you to exploit the remaining shreds of the season. Klose is in decline, is a player who goes for Bayern Munich. Will Mourinho used to save the season a discard Van Gaal? For that to have fallen to Raul.

We know how this goes for the winter transfer window. The rush is bad advisers, and most go frog. If you go for something cheap, you slip a Faubert. If you go for one point case, I stuck a saber by Gago. And if you go for someone contrasted, it can be a Cassano. Madrid does not have good experiences in the winter markets. Just got an outstanding Higuain. But what we say to those already appointed Faubert, Gago and Cassano? What Lass and Huntelaar?

An assignment is not a solution, and not worth mortgaging the future with a move if it is a true star. And less when many media suggest that is already tied Fernando Llorente for next season. Madrid has alternatives paaslcoaMENT this. We must continue to rely on Benzema, although it seems nil. You have to give room for the remainder of the season to find out if it's worth it to stay or look for a way out. Ronaldo is the option of a point, that does not necessarily mean you can not leave the area. With his mobility, Kaka, Di Maria and Özil, Madrid can form a front without being static, is formidable. Something similar to what the Barca with Messi, Villa and Peter. And without forgetting that it is in these times when one must look to the youth and provide opportunities for Morata and company. Only then is how come the Casillas and Raul.
