THE REAL MADRID "SCHISM": THE LIST OF SCHUSTER

REAL MADRID Coach Bernd Schuster is not a happy man in his
Sporting role having not received the new incorporations that
he asked for to tackle the 2008/2009 season. The anger is such
that local Sporting media talk of a "schism" between Schuster &
Directives, in concrete President Calderon & Football Director
Mijatovic, were Schuster insinuates lack of consultation & unilateral
decisions from Directives that were not checked for his advise.

There is a "smell" in the air that Schuster maybe contemplating
resigning, plus this option will not go down badly with President
Calderon because his outspoken Coach is "ruffling Directives feathers"

Spanish paper "AS" publish today the list of players that Coach Schuster
asked for Real Msdrid, only Van de Vaart arrived, the missing rest has
angered the Coach. Lets have a look at those player below.
















CRISTIANO RONALDO is the main factor that explains the Real
Madrid woes & lack of effective planning for the 2008/2009 season. The
Real Madrid directives sinned of "putting all its eggs" in the Ronaldo
basket. Such was the obsession & the confidence in getting Cristiano
over to Real Madrid that it halted alternative signnings. When it was
clear that Cristiano Ronaldo was not coming, it was too late to react as
the players market was virtually "shut". This is poor management &
shows how badly Pedja Mijatovic & Calderon have handled the situation,
in other places & Clubs they would have been fired!
























Schusters List
:

DANI ALVES: Schuster asked for Alves so he can place him infront
of Sergio Ramos in the midfeld, great idea as Alves has a more
attacking than defensive profile. The high price tag & the single minded
confidence that Ronaldo will come halted negotiations, ending in Alves
signning for FC Barcelona.



















LUIS FABIANO (Sevilla FC): Schuster loves this Brazilian goal
scorer. He put in 33 goals last season & Schuster wanted him
for Real. Again the Ronaldo obsession killed the deal & Fabiano
could not wait while Real made a decision.

DE ROSSI (AC Roma): Schuster considered the Italian the creative
midfield player he needed to complement/substitute Guti. However,
Roma asked for 40M€, too steep a price specially if Ronaldo was to
empty the bank.


















CESC FABREGAS: another great midfield alternative, obsession &
President Calderon promise. Arsenal & Coach Wegner shut the option
from day one.

DIEGO (Werner Bremen): The Brazilian midfielder was another alternative.
The German Club shut the doors immediately.





















PHILIP LAHM (Bayern Munich): Marcelo does not convience
Schuster 100% & saw in Lahm the player to cover the left-
back position . With his price tag, there was´nt enough to cover the
possiblity ($) of Cristiano Ronaldo arriving.

DAVID VILLA (Valencia CF) : With Ronaldo confirmed OUT, the
need to cover the forward suddenly adquired emergency status. The
negotiations were bad & late. Result - no deal.

In the end the only signning Schuster received was Dutchman RAFAEL
VAN DE VAART, a signning that if Real would have waited until next
year would have cost 1M€ & not the 13M€ of this year. Plus to add to
Schuster´s problems his only "alternative" forward ROBINHO gets sold.

As you can see Coach Schuster has professional reasons to be angry. The
Directive management has been poor & very amateur for a Club of Real
Madrid´s standards. Responsabilities must fall on President Calderon & his
Football Director Pedja Mijatovic who simply showed inexperience & bad
business sense.

But as in most places, at least in Spain, responsabilities will not be accepted &
the solution will be to blame the Coach, specially if the team starts losing. So as
we can see, interesting times ahead for Real Madrid, the only cure is winning
anything else will widen the "schism".
