Yep, I'd agree that Riquelme is perfect for Madrid. He is a dream for any team that functions with attacking fullbacks/wingbacks and adventurous wingers - he can set up poacher forwards with imaginative passes and uses the same kind of imagination to strike from far out. He'd be a great maestro - and an added plus for Schuster is that he'd be yet another slap in Barca's face if he did well, which he apparently enjoys.
Well we know Pepe, Metzelder and Saviola have signed. Dudek apparently has, too. Fabregas rejected them, Drenthe and Reyes bids are close to being agreed and they're trying for Robben. Fabregas' rejection would mean they'd be looking for another midfielder - but I'd ask - are mifielder and maestro seperate in this case? For example, are Madrid likely sign a Riquelme and then a Zapater? Or would it just be a Riquelme?
