Real Madrid lost 1-0 to Roma overnight in Dallas meaning their chances of qualifying for the final of the International Champions Cup have been ended. Los Blancos will take on Manchester United in Ann Arbor later this week knowing that they will have no more participation after that. We’ll bring you more on that Roma game later.
For now, the papers are still looking at the transfer of Keylor Navas, and say his presentation could take place as early as today. Everything is in place for the deal now to be announced, and the platform around the President’s Box at the Santiago Bernabeu is still standing, ready for Navas to be presented to the fans.
Until that deal is announced, the papers are filling pages with other material. And AS held a poll among its readers to select what the fans considers to be the best starting 11 for Real Madrid next season.
Despite getting much stick even from fans, Iker Casillas should be the number one according to the results. Indeed the contest between the two goalkeepers wasn’t even close, with the club captain receiving 51,384 votes and Diego Lopez polling 7,733.
The defence should be made up of Daniel Carvajal, Raphael Varane, Sergio Ramos and Marcelo, while the midfield trio should be Toni Kroos, Luka Modric and James Rodriguez, the fans said. Unsurprisingly, the front three should remain unchanged from last season – Bale, Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo.
The team is pretty good but there is something missing in the middle,khedira or Alonso should start for pressing in the midfield.
I think this is a nice selection for crucial matches,but Di Maria, Alonso and Kheidera are also waiting to retain their places in the starting XI. Thanks
Think di Maria most be part of the team with either Alonso or khedira
thiz fans are getting crazy… Our midfield is weak without alonso! New signings kroos and rodrigues dont fit together so it should be Alonso, Modric , Kroos/rodrigues

Who ever wear the Madrid shirt will deliver for the team ,,, …. Hala Madrid !!!!
No khedira his not a madrid material his moronouh s player and benzema can’t not be relied on james should compete with him period and in the mid alonso is aging so he will compete with kroos, modric is good he can play attacking or defending 6 meaning he can play as alonso khedira and isco as for king cr7 should be rested when ever he scores brace or when we lead by 3 goals all the time to avoid thigh injury again
Uefa stating 11….
Navas
Carvajal pepe ramos macerlo
Alonso or kroos
modric isco
Bale. James c.Ronaldo
Subs. Isco for ronaldo and bale
Varane for pepe
F.Contrao for macerlo
Benzema for james
Di maria must be sold just like bale,ramos and ronaldo they left their clubs at best season as for khedira he can’t play when his against the best teams like barca,man u ,bayern,chelsea,psg and A.madrid so must be sold
No offense real madrid can not be played by players who think they are the best were as they come from small clubs and were bought by a coach,player who make demands for high wage rate naah eg di maria and khedira they were bought by moron ouh but real Real players are bought by Perez CR7 ,benzema ,alonso,modric,bale.james ,isco,kroos all come from big clubs and all made real sacrifices to come here its a dream to play for Real. For us fan its still a dream for me to go to spain and watch them as m from S.Africa no player can be bigger than his club but players can be bigger than other clubs
As for falcao no we don’t need him he should have came to us last year and he has an injury which can leapfrog us will his leg last against cahill,thiago silva,hummels,sakho,kompany and godin tackles no it won’t so falcao stay at monaco
This season we need our players to be prepared to to play unusual positions their used to because this season madrid has to win six trophies and no foolish bookings pepe watch the ball not the opponents face,bale don’t shoot in a hurry,marcelo track back fast you know what happend with Ger game ,james don’t try to be the hero be the youngest best striker,kroos we don’t play tikitaka in here we count attack ,benzema no more messes in the box and bad positioning and ronaldo a freekick its a goal and no more falling easily your not a child.penalties are for players with technique not bravehearts
Realmadrid best as come,for first eleven alonso should replace toni kros,just bcos of defence.. Thank hala real
The starting eleven is good, but is better to fut alanso in the midfield.
realmaiderd
They should play a 4-2-3-1 James should be behind benzema
Well as for me we sholy nead alonso in the midfiled rool
alonso should join the coaching staff from now onwards after seeing the display of toni kroos
