I hope that knocks him down for a while, we can really use his absence.

The French winger tells Goal why he spurned the Spanish
giants' advances and lifts the lid on his stormy
relationship with former boss Louis van Gaal
EXCLUSIVE
By Christoph Kockeis
Franck Ribery turned down the chance to join Real
Madrid in 2009 after Bayern Munich told him that he was
their Lionel Messi .
The former France international had the chance to move
to the Santiago Bernabeu after falling out with then-
Bayern coach Louis van Gaal .
However, despite Madrid's best efforts - and interest
from other European giants - Ribery says that he was
convinced to stay at the Allianz Arena after being told he
would become the keystone to Bayern's side.
"I had intensive talks with Uli Hoeness, who was still
president back then, and chairman Karl-Heinz
Rummenigge," Ribery told Goal. "They told me I should
not go, how the club needed me, how I was as important
for Bayern as Lionel Messi was for Barcelona.
"Real tried, they wanted me. I don't know what price
Bayern wanted them to pay. In the end I am happy how
it ended."
I hope that knocks him down for a while, we can really use his absence.
