    I can only guess Diego Lopez is 32 and did not have many opportunities while Keylor is 5 years younger and already a World Cup Hero?

    You take the younger and better stud?!

    I am hearing that according to Spanish papers Khedira to Arsenal is a done deal. Can.

    Any confirmation?

    Clubs have agreed on the transfer, but Khedira apparently wants a lot of salary and is still negotiating with Arsenal.

    This makes far more sense for Keylor than going to Bayern.. It's gonna suck for me b/c I like the guy and well it's Madrid. Both Diego and Casillas are older and on the way out so they have to get someone younger. They'll keep Casillas as he is the Captain and has been their emblem for the past 10 years or so. Casillas will probably be there another season or 2 and then retire in MLS. Lopez is most likely going to Monaco or Napoli.

    Casillas will probably still be the starter and Navas most likely in the cup games.

    Awesome...

    Arsenal apparently not willing to meet Khedira's salary demands, Chelsea mentioned as favorites right now. Would make sense to me, Mourinho always showed high respect for Khedira and they have enough money to meet his salary wishes.

    its official now? Barcelona is really testing my patience, first they sign the biter, then our rivals get Rodriquez, hopefully the Cuadrado rumors are true. P.S. I am part Colombian so thats why it hurts to see this.

    They just need to improve that back line and they will likely repeat. Gonna be fun as heck to play with on FIFA 15 though.

    Not saying he won't end up at Madrid but all that happened was agreement between Madrid and James, that was always going to be the easy part. Now an agreement must be reached between Monaco and Madrid, totally different animal. Before James comes Di Maria would have to leave as well.

    This. Monaco wants 85mil and the clubs are far from an agreement.

    He's much better than James. Don't let the World Cup hypes James.

    James even got on the UEFA player of the year shortlist due to the World Cup lol.

    Who is much better than James? Suarez? Cuadrado? Not sure I follow.

    None of them play the same position.

    Di Maria is super underrated. I think he's better currently than James, but with Madrid you always have to factor in hype and aesthetics. Two things Di Maria does not have.
