, yo esperando ver 22 Jackobssons de altísimo nivel, pero más bien parecía un CD Tacon vs Deportivo Pozuelo

. Tienen físico lás jugadoras, pero nada que ver como para volvernos locos e ir a traerse suecas y llenar el equipo, las buenas ya sabemos quienes son, 2 de ellas ya las tenemos, y las demás nada que ver, Kenti Robles, Marta Cardona, Maite Oroz, Ivana Andres y ellas serían super estrellas jugando ahí, por lo menos lo que yo vi.
El salto de calidad me pareció muy bueno y adecuado este verano, yo aparte me hubiera traígo a Viola Calligaris y a Maria Mendez, que estaban gratis, y seguro alguna 9. Pero de ahí en más veo todo correcto.
Cesar, of course I have to comment on this…

(Sorry again for the English... this is too long and tricky for me to do in Spanish!)
I am sorry if you have been fooled to expect 22 Jakobssons in every Swedish game.

I know the feeling from following the Iberdrola last season, expecting to see 22 Jenni Hermoso every week. Our lifes are full of disappointments, big and small…
It is always hard to compare teams and players in different leagues. What you need to succeed in one league might not help you much in another. Would the new RM signings be "Superstars" in the Swedish legue, as you say? Interesting question, of course very hypotetical. I am not an expert on football by any means, but I do see 2-3 games per week here in Sweden. Here are my thoughts:
Lets define being a "Superstar" in Sweden like this: "Would be a starter in Rosengård or Göteborg", OK?
Maite Oroz is the one that would pass the test for me. She would not be a starter in Rosengård, because there is Jelena Cankovic "The Serbian Ronaldinho" who runs the attacking midfield, and also youngster Hanna Bennison who I believe will be just as good as Maite within 1-2 years. But Maite would be a starter in Göteborg, being better than Swedish international Julia Zigiotti Olme.
I would compare Maite with the three most talented young "Kosse-Style" creative attacking midfielders in Sweden: Julia Zigiotti, Loreta Kullashi and Hanna Bennison. And I do think Maite is better than them. She would probably be among the Top 15 in the league.
The others you mention, are all very fine players and a big rise in quality for Madrid, no doubt. But "Superstars" in Sweden? No, I don't think so.
Ivana Andres. There is no lack of fine central defenders in the Swedish league. Emma Kullberg and Emma Berglund in Göteborg, Glodis Perla Viggosdottir and Natalie Björn in Rosengård. Linköping might have the third best defense, often with Nilla Fischer and Lisa Hurtig. I don't see Ivana take a starting place in those teams. But in most of the other teams, she would be a great addition.
Here, we might also keep in mind that the currently best Swedish centrals - Eriksson (Chelsea), Sembrandt (Juventus) and Ilestedt (Bayern) are all abroad.
Kenti is spectacular. Fun to watch! I need to see more of her - now I only remember her solo raids in attack. In Sweden, she would be used as a winger in the 3-5-2 that many clubs here use, including The Big Two. Here, she would compete with the likes of Jessica Samuelsson (Rosengård, formerly Arsenal) and Emma Koivisto/Julia Roddar in Göteborg. None of them are as exciting as Kenti, but I have a feeling that their physique, stamina and tactical skills are better than Kenti. But she may prove me wrong in the coming games!
And, of course, I would choose my beloved Hanna Glas (Bayern) over anybody, anytime! But that's just me!
Marta Cardona, I will skip over her. I need to see her more. She also might be tricky to find a natural place and comparison for, in those Swedish 3-5-2 teams.
Generally, I think the Swedish and Spanish league are fairly equal these days. But that will surely change in favour of Spain - if they don't continue to shoot themselves in the foot with dysfunctional organizations, TV rights, politics, wrong people in charge, and everything else I read about and try to understand about Spanish woman's football. It's complicated!
Barca, of course, would easily win the Damallsvenskan! Rosengård and Göteborg are probably on the level with Atletico. The lesser teams in Sweden would have a good chance against the lesser Spanish, due to better physical status - they would break them from minute 75-90! Spanish players generally have better individual ball skills, but the Pia Sundhage-style "Safety First, Good Defensive Organisation Comes First" is still hard to break down.
Though these days I think the differences and national characteristics are less important. Swedes have become better with the ball the last 4-5 years - and Kosse has played an important part in that, inspiring many young girls to play "less Swedish".
Oh, this is getting too long… I will stop here before you all fall asleep!
