Good for him, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are not the situation for him, he'll just get lost in the shuffle.

I really like Ribery as a player. He has good skills but is also a workhorse & he's fearless. At the world cup in Germany last June he was one of the few French players I really enjoyed watching. I hope he has a long football career.

What's not to like? He has pace to burn, great skill on the ball and can run all out for days. I too have been on the Ribery bandwagon for a while now. Few players maraud the flanks with the determination he brings. You have to enjoy watching the guy play. Personally I would like to see him head to a new club, though that's for my own selfish reasons of wanting to watch him more often. I agree Real is not the place for him, maybe Bayern, but I would keep looking, and I can respect him not wanting to leave OM.

thats a shame with that club going no-where, he should have left. Although both the teams that approached him are trash, he should have went to united at the beginning of the season
