People-especially Barca fans need to forget about Verratti. He will be at PSG for the next 5 years imo.

Forget him and move for a midfielder who is actually attainable.

Nasser was asked about that last night by a journalist on TV since the spanish media ABC said "verratti asked to leave" (so don't blame the messenger, it isn't my fault medias ask questions about verratti every days because spanish medias publish news after news):

- He denied that rumor.
- He said that "as I'm alive, it's out of the question to sell Verratti".

So yeah, doesn't look good, at least for this summer.

[MENTION=15376]DonAK[/MENTION], yup there was rumors that it is how Al Thani does things. Be it by pride or anything else, qataries refuse to bend over players that try to cause troubles.

FFS. I hate our scouts for not brining in Verratti before PSG signed him :(

Easy to say that now.

When he was bought, at least here in france, most medias said "who the fuck is he? We have dozens of players better than verratti in Ligue 1".

You can't know in advance if a player will do good or flop.

And you have 1 chance out of how many to sign a player that will become world class?

But yeah, a good sporting manager and good scouts can help to find those gems.

PSG misses Leonardo a lot. From the start he said Verratti and Marquinhos would become big, and did all he can to sign them.

But he also failed in recruiting Lucas Moura for example. He's good at dribbling bu that's all. To me he's average and doesn't show any improvement in the end.

Lucas Moura was terrible last night.

Pshh, I'm living in an universe where we recruited Neymar and Verratti and there is no Bale. This is our current lineup ,only Juve awaits us for the sexduple(or however it's called):
[formation=white,6]
De Gea
Danilo-0-Ramos-0-Varane-0-Marcelo
0-0-0-0-0-0-0
0-0-0-0-0-0-0
James-0-Modric-0-Verratti-0-Kroos/Isco
0-0-0-0-0-0-0
0-0-Cristiano-0-Neymar-0-0
[/formation]
We switch to 4-3-3 when attacking, with james as RW,Neymar as LW and CR7 as CF :(

Funny how perceptions can differ so much. One PSG fan finds Lucas average, the other claims he is comfortably better than Neymar in every department except finishing. Who is right? :p

Who said that?

Comfortably is a stretch.

That's an odd assessment from Bertus. Ask him who carried PSG through the first half of the season while Ibra was injured, Cavani was sulking and paying like garbage, and prior to Pastore's emergence as a key contributor?

I also think it strange he'd lament Lucas alone for being average yesterday when the same applied to practically the entire squad, meanwhile he was awesome last week.

So it was you [MENTION=19661]Juvens[/MENTION], why am i not surprised? :lol:

Seriously tho, you think Lucas is a better player than Neymar?

He also said Lacazette is a better individual talent than Neymar.

I think Juvens just gets overly excited and defensive/protective when it comes to Ligue 1 players.

If it's what his gut tells him, i can respect that, because i can't think of any facts to support such claims. Well you never know, let's wait and see :popcom:

It couldn't be that you're biased towards Barca players? I don't understand why some of you chose to pretend there's some huge gap between the two when their performances in top flight football has been practically identical through this point in their careers.

So it was you [MENTION=19661]Juvens[/MENTION], why am i not surprised? :lol:

No, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have better pace, or isn't a better passer or dribbler.

Neymar is 10 times better than Moura if not more.

No one besides Juvens in the whole world thinks otherwise.
