Well, that was fun while it lasted. The goals, the dancing. It was great, but all good things must come to an end I guess. No more waiting on the edge of my seat every time he touches the ball, expecting him to produce a bit of magic. Just lot's of angry swearing and muttering at what a piece of shit he is for wearing the all white of Madrid.
His addition turns this Madrid squad into a true second incarnation of the Galacticos. Obviously Real have been great for a few years now, but Di Maria, Ozil, Khedira, and other stalwarts of the team for the past few years have never truly been global superstars. Great players, yes, but they were missing the glamor that came with the original crew of Beckham, Figo, Zidane, etc. The additions of a World Cup wining Kroos and the Colombian sensation James turns this Madrid team into an absolute marketing juggernaut. Bale, Benzema, Ronaldo, James, Kroos, and Modric all in the same lineup is fucking scary.
Obviously I'm hoping it all crashes and burns right in Florentino Perez's face. Too many superstars in the same lineup never really yields the intended results, and the arrival of James means the likely departure of Di Maria, who was Real's best player through most of last year. It was fun watching James for Colombia and the joy he brought to the country, but I officially hope this move is a catastrophe for the club and James regresses into nothingness as a soccer player while losing all his dance skills.
Goodbye, sweet prince.
Now go fuck yourself.
