Barca Transfers and Rumors

[Donatello]

Agree on Umtiti & Ter stegen. But I didn't count Dembele because if you sign a youngster for around 140million, its not scouting, its just splashing cash. As for coutinho, agreed he has the talent to be a top 3 player. He hasn't done anything so far at barca to be called the best player, I mean his contribution for barcelona hasn't been that astounding.

Plus, to name a few RM players who are of similiar age : Varane, Carvajal, Asensio, Isco, Casemiro, Kroos.

We've been scouting Dembele since he was at Rennes and even tried to sign him the summer he went to Dortmund but he refused because he knew he would get limited playing time with Neymar in the squad.

Coutinho is probably the second best player at Barca after Messi already.

Dembele is young and his fee is not relevant if you are comparing the ages etc of squads. Cant just have it that take account of fee but not what Barca get.

Real have a group of their best players who their CL success has laregly been built on who are 30+ Navas, Ramos, Marcelo, Modric, Ronaldo and Benzema will all need replaced with huge money in next few years.

While Barca have been at a different stage in having to replace legendary players in recent times which leads to the bigger fees.

As I thought you cant answer it.

Spoke crap and cant back it up.

Dembele is young...but lets not count him as doesnt suit you.

Dembele, Ter Stegen, Umtiti and Coutinho 30+? Need to check again min.

Best squads win the league.

So. You agree that rest 7 players on the starting eleven are old, if you start Dembele, Coutinho, Umtiti & Ter stegen. That's not a sign of calling a team the "best".

That makes no sense whatsoever.

Try again.

Wenger tried to sign many WC player, succeded in nearly none. So, for me, trying to sign & to actually sign aren't the same. But, still even if I agree on dembele. We rarely go after talents like the way RM does. Their last two transfer windows were only consisting of signings of players who were under 22. Plus, they have snatched two more brazillians at young age wiz Rodrygo and Vinicius.

Maybe possible they fail, but seeing their track record so far, I doubt it will halt them that much financially. First of all, you can atleast give them a lot of time to prove, give them right resources from young age. Plus, they start on a very low wage, so you don't have to give up on their demands like when you sign a player of similiar talent. Plus, if it all fails, you can still sell for half the money. But, THE PROS HIGHLY OVERSHADOW THE CONS, MAKING IT A BET WORTH TAKING.

That also doesn't make sense. Give an answer, or forget it & don't try again.
I am not instersted in picking useless fight, on a public forum, with an unknown person, to waste my time and energy.
If you put statements, back it, don't shift the topic or you should leave it.

First of all, its *are, not *is

... its not scouting, its just splashing cash.

Money Recieved : 385.2 million pounds
Money Recieved : 399.62 million pound.

You complete and utter assclown.

We had to replace Xavi, Masche, Neymar, Iniesta, Alves and so on. Let's see what they spend when Ronaldo's, Ramos', Modrić's, Benzema's time come.

 

[Donatello]

You complete and utter assclown.

Thanks for correcting, I apologize for my mistake. But, I don't get what's wrong with "its".

But, complete and utter mean the same & the grammatical formation of the above sentence isn't accurate as well.

It should be like this:

"You are a complete assclown".

or

"You are an utter disgrace".

Would've been cool to play him in a 334 or 4 2 4
something like:
Neymar Suarez Dembele
............Messi...............
Iniesta...Busi......Raki....
Mathieu.Umtiti..Pique.....

Dortmund signed him for what's thought to be around 15 M. It's still undisclosed but maybe they worked a deal for a % take on a re-sale... Just guessing. At the time, he had just received the youngest talent award for L1.
Even if we weren't going to offer him guaranteed playtime, why not secure him and loan him out on a yearly basis.

Look it up then. It's not exactly fucking rocket science.

 

[Joan]

So, signing Dembele (one of the very best young players in the world) is splashing money but signing some Vinicius and Rodrygo for 90 m is scouting?

That's what a good squad planning means, which we sadly lack. We can't make players agree to our terms, while RM do it with a charm, they signed Rodrygo, & he also agreed to the deal & rejected Barca & PSG, despite Real having numerous players at same position. Whether he turns out good or bad is another question. But the point is Dembele was also a similiar player back then, and we could make him accept the terms.
