I'm amazed by this. even the thought of it amazes me.

I'm told it's not dead in the water yet.

Still makes me laugh that the mickies paid 7 mill for him. Benitez really does have an eye for a bargain.

I don't think I've laughed so much at a transfer rumour in a long time. He's not even as good as Aaron Lennon.

Some of the players that Madrid have been linked with this winter are nothing short of sh*te.

Didier Zokora, Jermaine Pennant ... next it'll be bloody Titus Bramble.

On the BBC sport football gossip page, there is a classic quote from the Daily Mail re Pennant.

Real Madrid wanted to sign Jermaine Pennant from Liverpool but his wages demands were too high and he may now end up joining Wigan.
Can't get to Madrid? Try Wigan instead. Brilliant.

I would, at least he would get games at Wigan. He would be another British Real Madrid flop.

He won't even get games at Wigan.

Antonio Valencia is a much superior right midfield than Jermaine Pennant ever will be or has been, unless of course Valencia is sold to a bigger club.

Who knows?

In my opinion no Brit has failed at Madrid.

Jonathan Woodgate? Beckham wasn't fantastic and Michael Owen only managed 11 goals.
