LionelMessi Editz Losing Kaka, Pirlo, and Gatusso without proper replacement proved to be fatal for AC Milan. Also they didn't treat their star player KP Boateng nicely after being object of racism and then sold their most talented youngster El Sharaawy to fellow Italian club AS Roma. Carlos Bacca is massively overrated imho. They should rely more on local talents. AC Milan has a really long way to go before they revive.
He was forced because he betrayed the club yeah. Who do you think he was forced? Why is he known as "topa"(the mole) in real madrid now? Was it tragic that it ended this way? Yeah. Did he deserve it, yeah he fucking did. No player is bigger then it's club.
Seriously. Even if he wasn't great past his prime, he should've stayed and given a proper farewell. Look at John Terry for example, he is still given games in the league cup and fans gave him a good goodbye (also to add the fans persuaded him to stay on for another season last year)
ELBandido Did we? He still earns 350k per week, yeah he's on the bench but he's likely to leave and go to Everton or China, he understands himself and is happy to leave he basically agreed to....
as a Barca fan I really felt for Cassilas. It is a big shame that a club legend doesn't even get a proper good bye. it just proved that I was a Barca fan for the right reason.
Iker will always be a legend for me and many others. No madrid fan would ever deny that he didn't deserve what he got and the club should be shameful for treating their legends like shit.
Swag Boy69 Correct, as long the player was a favorite signed by Perez. Just look at Benzema. For a center forward with such low goal scoring record. He should have been offloaded by Real Madrid. But as long as he keeps feeding balls to help Ronaldo score goals. Benzema stays.

Real featured 4 times on this list, disgraceful treatment of great players. And only looking for their next star due to popularity. thats all James was, a popularity purchase and even booing their talisman Ronaldo this season? how the hell can you speak for that Madridistas?
Seriously, Casillas was disrespected because he spoke to Barcelona players regarding NATIONAL TEAM matters? Don't forget one thing my fellow Spaniards, Barcelona and tiki taka gave you guys the World Cup
How can they send Casillas off shamefully with no hero's goodbye after all he did for Real Madrid.Without him,they would not be able to win that much titles.
You forgot kaka to madrid in 2008/09... he didnt want to leave but berlusconi said he couldnt turn down madrids offer as he was planning to sell the club
not gonna happen. Even if Porto defeats L'pool they're gonna have their asses handed to them by Man City... should they ever meet. But I agree that they should give a personal UCL trophy to Casillas, just because of who he is and let Porto go back home xD
This is why I'm always surprised when I hear players say "I want to become a legend at Real Madrid" because they treat their legends like shit. Just look at how they treated Iker and booed Ronaldo a while back.
Casillas is Madrids best ever keeper and (Arguably) for some THE best ever keeper, sure, his form dipped... but to not even give him a proper sendoff? Disgraceful
How can a Real Madrid fan whistle their own club legend (Cassilas) ????? How can they forget his contribution ? Believe me, I am Barca fan and yet the only player I loved from Real Madrid is Cassilas because of his calm, cool, gentleman behaviour. He is far better captain then Ramos. A big middle finger 🖕 to Florentino Perez and Jose Mourinho.
they also prefer to sell shirts than to give proper respect to players. Sometimes they just "wash" players away for money. For that I blame Florentino Pérez. Example: James Rodriguez, Beckam (was there to sell shirts), Kaká (same shit), Owen, Robben, Sneidjer, Makelele, Morata, Casillas, etc...
According to the opinion I gave, yes, I'm a horrible human being! xDDDD Triggered a Real Madrid fan, sorry for hurting your feelings. (Should I be sorry if I'm one of the worst humans? I'll let you decide...)
Surely Beckham should be No.1, he's not even on the list. He's on record stating that he didn't know he was being sold by Man Utd, that he didn't want to leave & cried when he left. In fact stating he couldn't watch Man Utd for years after.
David Villa from Valencia to Barcelona, David Silva from Valencia to Manchester City, Raul Albiol from Valencia to Real Madrid. If you're going to include Payet, you might as well look a few years beyond and find bigger players who were sold because of their club's financial difficulty despite not wanting to leave.
What he couldn't do is get Madrid to pay half is wages if he played for another Spanish team. So he went to porto, got paid by two clubs at the same time and is living a golden retirement (apart from the titles, which come at dropper speed.
Casillas: The journey from being the legend to being the mole. As a Real Madrid fan, I was sad, but he deserved it. Diego Lopez was in a dream form at that time as well, so can't really blame Mourinho for playing Lopez all matches.
I actually lost an interest in watching soccer after seeing what my team, Real Madrid, did to Casillas. I was disgusted....started following Porto cause Casillas.
If you think James R. flopped on his first season, then you surely didn't watch a single RM match that season... he scored 17 goals, an impressive amount of goals for a midfielder (and almost all of them were gorgeous, with the spanish press saying that he never scores ugly goals), and he made 18 assists... He was basically the midfielder with the most goals and assists in La Liga that year, and was chosen in the year's Best IX... but most importantly he did fantastically in creation tasks, moving the ball, associating with everyone, really making the team play... even though he was playing in a much more defensive position than he usually does.
James didn't fail at all.He was brilliant in his first season and again reached double figures this season,scored in El Classico.He is now a supersub and with him and Morata Real made Real win Cl and La liga
Can't wait for people to look back after James retires and realize he wasn't a flop. He was putting more goals outside the box in during his time than Messi and Ronaldo and had way fewer appearances as well as creating beautiful assists. He never flopped and almost always performed but was the victim of coaches (save Ancelotti) who couldn't find a way to use him in a midfield as stacked as Madrid's.
The one of Falcao is heartbreaking: his being sold was just a horrible call, and it led to that injury that would keep him from attending Brazil 2014 despite the fact Falco led to Colombia to qualify to that tournament. What if, just what if... The way Iker was treated was simply unfair.
cassilas is respected by fans from different clubs all around the world we all know hes a legend madrid fans are disgusting and need to value their players a hell of a lot more
ozil os clearly one of the most important player to arsenal beside sanchez....because he clearly shown his ability as the team core of play....a great playmaker,one arsenal shouldnt let go no matter what
Kim Jong Un but,........ the dynasty man 😢😢😢 Westbrook, KD, Harden, and Ibaka bro! I'm from Kansas, but I would've drove four hours to go see them with season tickets and definitely watch many NBA finals with them!
He wasn't sold against his will. He wanted a max contract, the Thunder didn't want to give him one because they would have to pay luxury tax so gave him a lesser contract which he declined. Hence they traded him to the Rockets who had the assets
Pirlo was kicked out of ACMilan because he was "Too Old for AC Milan"
since then Pirlo won 8 Titles, Milan won 1
Knife X Pirlo was the heart of Milan. Without his playmaking, there was a giant gap in their midfield. Shevchenko leaving didn’t help them either.
how old was he???
LionelMessi Editz
One year older than Gerrard. If Gerrard was 31 in 2011, Pirlo was 32.
mark robinson well considering that, for a player of his calibre that is not to old thank you for telling me his age
LionelMessi Editz
Losing Kaka, Pirlo, and Gatusso without proper replacement proved to be fatal for AC Milan.
Also they didn't treat their star player KP Boateng nicely after being object of racism and then sold their most talented youngster El Sharaawy to fellow Italian club AS Roma. Carlos Bacca is massively overrated imho. They should rely more on local talents.
AC Milan has a really long way to go before they revive.
As a real Madrid fan, I feel shame to have casillas treated in such way.
Suman Tamangg I second that.
Suman Tamangg Casillas time was over. Move on
Suman Tamangg Plastic
+ELBandido doesn't mean he deserved the treatment he got.
Suman Tamangg plastic support a real team
its absolutely disgusting how madrid fans treated Casillas disgraceful
Tommy Bobdog It was Perez. I wouldn't consider anyone who wanted Casillas to be sold as a Real fan.
*Florentino Perez
He lost all his respect by his poor performance
not madrid fans... we still love him weather he is in madrid or not
is the most idiotic thing to say. you can lose your spot but not respect, those who disrepect him are just despicable cunts.
We shouldnt have sold Casillas he is a legend and should have retired at Real... :"(
A legend yeah, but a legend who betrayed the club.
Ragnar Lothbrok What do you man betray wow you have no idea
He was forced because he betrayed the club yeah. Who do you think he was forced? Why is he known as "topa"(the mole) in real madrid now? Was it tragic that it ended this way? Yeah. Did he deserve it, yeah he fucking did. No player is bigger then it's club.
Ragnar Lothbrok How did he "betray" the club?
SJ59HD He could still play for Madrid.
Well Cassilas is Madrid legend.The way they treated him is scheizze.
Casillas*
Seriously. Even if he wasn't great past his prime, he should've stayed and given a proper farewell. Look at John Terry for example, he is still given games in the league cup and fans gave him a good goodbye (also to add the fans persuaded him to stay on for another season last year)
yeah you are right
Thomassh*** muller Real and some of their fans
Thomassh*** muller HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
I will never forget how real Madrid treated ilker casillas
although I'm a Barca fan I was really sad about what happened to Casillas ... even Bravo had more appreciation when he left us ...
Alzato you guys are probably ecstatic that bravo left now 😂😂😂
Rustajoian exactly 😂😂😂
Ian Forward United treated their club legend Rooney like trash
ELBandido Did we? He still earns 350k per week, yeah he's on the bench but he's likely to leave and go to Everton or China, he understands himself and is happy to leave he basically agreed to....
as a Barca fan I really felt for Cassilas. It is a big shame that a club legend doesn't even get a proper good bye. it just proved that I was a Barca fan for the right reason.
Hassan Azhar but also how Madrid ruined the careers of players like ozil di maria and Robinho
Li0nel Messigician ozil and di marias careers arent ruined
Barca fans opinions doesn't really matter...
Hassan Azhar the real madrid community doesn't give a shit about opinions from barca fans
Hassan Azhar I will say Madrid ruined Kaka's and Hunterlaar's career though, especially Kaka.
Iker will always be a legend for me and many others. No madrid fan would ever deny that he didn't deserve what he got and the club should be shameful for treating their legends like shit.
Real Madrid treat their players so badly it's fucking disgraceful
Lord Sanogo Will Win The 2094 ballon d'Or every club has this type of shit fans.
nah depens wich one

So him under performing means it's okay for him to be booed?
AnchorBlade its Perez b
It's not the Madridistas, it's that prick Perez
Its all because of Florentino Perez, he should be the one leaving Lucas Alba
Perez and mourhino. What a dead combo
Seriously, Casillas was disrespected because he spoke to Barcelona players regarding NATIONAL TEAM matters? Don't forget one thing my fellow Spaniards, Barcelona and tiki taka gave you guys the World Cup
I'm not the biggest Real Madrid fan but Casillas was truly a legend
I'm not a Madrid fans but selling Ozil and Di Maria is a foolish move.
Really? can you tell how better we could be than winning UCL 4 times in 5 years?
And casillas
@@tommyjohn1493 I don't think either bale or James were the stars of those years..bale had been injured mostly and James, well he was never settled.

Rooney cough cough
Gerrit Kooistra "an united fan" funniest thing I've heard in a while 😂
i feel so bad for casillas
The most painful of all is Iker Cassilas departure from Real Madrid. He will always remain the best spanish goalkeeper and captain.
The entire football community is pissed with Madrid. Cassilas was a legend of the sport and RM must be grateful to have had him.
Last time i came this early arsenal was in the champions leauge
are you a spuds?
Screw u man
You said Sheikh Mansur is Saudi, he's actually Emirati
Awesome Gameing thats like saying he is from Sri Lanka not India wtf is the difference?
Josh Balder they are not the same country
Josh Balder They are not the same country idiot
lmao there way more different than you think , its like me saying America and uk same country .
Uneducated cunts will stay uneducated.
99% of commentators talkin bout Casillas
And I’m over here talking how he said aNgLe Di MaRiA
is it not right?
Barca fan here,
but Casillas will always be my top goalkeeper
(but a goalkeeper will not make me switch clubs tho)😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
...you FOOL 💩...
Rodriguez did not flop in his first season he got a tots and he scored about 15 goals
Casillas isn't a legend!!!
He's a God.
Ham Ham the greatest of all time
Ham Ham yeah our God
Ham Ham no
no Zlatan is
At Porto he is
Real did Casillas dirty. Right through the back door...
Seems like a stretch but I hope Casillas wins the champions league with Porto
not gonna happen. Even if Porto defeats L'pool they're gonna have their asses handed to them by Man City... should they ever meet. But I agree that they should give a personal UCL trophy to Casillas, just because of who he is and let Porto go back home xD
Yeah didn’t happen
This is why I'm always surprised when I hear players say "I want to become a legend at Real Madrid" because they treat their legends like shit. Just look at how they treated Iker and booed Ronaldo a while back.
It's good that Ronaldo left Madrid Other wise he's also gonna be treated like casillas.
who hates perez?
Yeah we all have had it with him, I used to think that it was the best thing to do for the club but now I just want someone to replace Perez
yep
U
Me
Which one
Don't think Rodriguez is a flop, he just isn't getting playing time, every time he plays he either scores or gets an assist...
Emirati not Saudi
they all look the same, just like Asians
I think Casillas and Iniesta are the most loved players
San Iker... To this day my eyes tear up whenever I think of him. Su legado vivirá para siempre iker.
The same with Eto'o & Barça in 2009
Casillas is Madrids best ever keeper and (Arguably) for some THE best ever keeper, sure, his form dipped... but to not even give him a proper sendoff? Disgraceful
He was not even the best keeper of Real's history. Stop saying bullshit
Max Power stfu idiot
we'll never forget him Madrid legend
Iker Casillas is and will always be a legend!!!👌👌👌
How can a Real Madrid fan whistle their own club legend (Cassilas) ????? How can they forget his contribution ? Believe me, I am Barca fan and yet the only player I loved from Real Madrid is Cassilas because of his calm, cool, gentleman behaviour. He is far better captain then Ramos.
A big middle finger 🖕 to Florentino Perez and Jose Mourinho.
Worst fans: Real Madrid fans...
Will Joseph I'm pretty sure it was us the fans who sold di Maria, Casillas, and Ozil. Fucking imbeciles.
they also prefer to sell shirts than to give proper respect to players. Sometimes they just "wash" players away for money. For that I blame Florentino Pérez.
Example: James Rodriguez, Beckam (was there to sell shirts), Kaká (same shit), Owen, Robben, Sneidjer, Makelele, Morata, Casillas, etc...

says some plastic ass barca fan, right?
Sterling there are plenty of teams, not just Real and Barça... Same thing with opinions...
Surely Beckham should be No.1, he's not even on the list. He's on record stating that he didn't know he was being sold by Man Utd, that he didn't want to leave & cried when he left. In fact stating he couldn't watch Man Utd for years after.
Now bale and Isco are in the loop line 😑
Poor Casillas, he was a true legend🙏
now do players who were kept against their will
Who's here after you heard Casillas got a heart attack
Widely regarded as one of the most underrated talents.... see the paradox?
David Villa from Valencia to Barcelona, David Silva from Valencia to Manchester City, Raul Albiol from Valencia to Real Madrid. If you're going to include Payet, you might as well look a few years beyond and find bigger players who were sold because of their club's financial difficulty despite not wanting to leave.
Well...a club's financial difficulty is a completely different story
well that's a different story
i can just amagine how amazing Valencia's and Sevilla's teams would be if they kept all there players WOO
dat ending gringe level over 9000 never do that again please 😂😂
I was souled against my will. I never wanted to be born and I never consented to being given this power of human consciousness.
Iker Casillas - "I had offers in La Liga, but I couldn't play against Madrid". What a legend.
What he couldn't do is get Madrid to pay half is wages if he played for another Spanish team. So he went to porto, got paid by two clubs at the same time and is living a golden retirement (apart from the titles, which come at dropper speed.
I wouldn’t say Rodriguez flopped at Real I think he was at his prime when he was there.
James had a good First season
Iker casillas is a legend ❤❤
I'll never forget the day Madrid told di Maria to not play in the world cup final or he will leave.
Casillas: The journey from being the legend to being the mole. As a Real Madrid fan, I was sad, but he deserved it. Diego Lopez was in a dream form at that time as well, so can't really blame Mourinho for playing Lopez all matches.

Barca fans even supporting andre gomes.....bt real madrid fans didnt support casillas....who was a legend....proud to be a barca fan
"Angle Di Maria"
No lol.
Casillas won it all for Madrid.Indeed a legend.The one that should leave the club is egoistic Perez.
Del Piero would worth a mention.
If Madrid still had Ozil, Alonso, Di MAria and former players that are still playing, they would be unstoppable, in my opinion.
Real Madrid wad my fav team until they sold casillas and destroy kaka career
4 madridstas who never wanted to leave us.😥😥😢 , but I still weep for casillas.
Letting Higuain, Di maria, & ozil go wow sometimes i wonder what could have been.
The one of Falcao is heartbreaking: his being sold was just a horrible call, and it led to that injury that would keep him from attending Brazil 2014 despite the fact Falco led to Colombia to qualify to that tournament. What if, just what if...
The way Iker was treated was simply unfair.

Sheikh Mansour is not Saudi he emarati (UAE)
the difference there both in the middle east and both Muslim countries??
Casilas was a legend I don’t know y he had to be sold
He could have at least went on loan
cassilas is respected by fans from different clubs all around the world we all know hes a legend madrid fans are disgusting and need to value their players a hell of a lot more
Madrid must sac Perez
I think once Ronaldo and Bale leave Florentino Perez will start thinking straight.
Asorce Block bro ronaldo has left the club. So i guess perez will always be the same..
Chinmay Rout and there we go
I'm sure no-one ever used the Frimpong phrase
What about Frank Lampard going to Manchester City?? He was drawed from NYCosmos

James did not flop
He did
Madrid does Players Dirty!!! Ronaldo is on this list now😂😂
ozil os clearly one of the most important player to arsenal beside sanchez....because he clearly shown his ability as the team core of play....a great playmaker,one arsenal shouldnt let go no matter what
