What would you like to see next season?
Personally, I'd like to see:
Ter Stegen
Alves-Pique-Hummels-Alba
Xavi-Busquets-Cesc
Pedro-Messi-Iniesta
With Villa being used instead of Cesc and perhaps Montoya instead of Alves in some cases.

David De Gea
Montoya-Pique-Puyol/Inigo Martinez-Alba
Busquets
Xavi-Iniesta/Cesc
Pedro-Messi-Villa
With rotations for RB with Montoya/Alves and rotations in the wings between Pedro/Villa/Iniesta/Tello/Deulofeu/Cuenca and Thiago rotating with Xavi more often. This could give all the wingers some necessary playing time and with more of them in form, there is a wider variety to choose from in the more important games. Also I want the main big-game lineup to be altered VERY often depending on form/opponent so that we keep it fresh and we don't stay too predictable. This season the main lineup is pretty much set with almost no alterations and it has cost us quite a lot.
Edit: Forgot to reply to your lineup. I would prefer de Gea over ter Stegen because of the language difference and because of current comparison. This season United's defense has been dismal and de Gea has been peppered with shots yet he's played amazingly. However ter Stegen is struggling a lot this season with Monchengladbach due to the absence of Dante in defense. If you actually kept up with this, then you would know that ter Stegen isn't really as good as the hype makes him out to be. I underrated de Gea before but his form has convinced me that he can perform very well for Barca in a comfortable environment. Also, Hummels isn't always the best defender and he does have lapses in big games (CL game vs Shaktar, Euro semifinal vs Italy) which could screw us. He could put in a horrible performance on a day in which we need him most. I'd prefer getting a cheap, reliable CB from la liga who isn't overhyped. Just because Martinez isn't as famous as Hummels, doesn't mean that he is a worse purchase. If anything, his lower price tag would be an advantage for us.

"Dani Jarque, siempre con nosotros"
-Andres Iniesta
Diego Alves/ De Gea
Dani- Pique- Hummels/Puyi- Alba
Busquets
Iniesta-Xavi/Thiago
Pedro-Messi-Alexis/Neymar * whom I don't want to see here, but imo it looks like it's already decided.
That's about it. Almost impossible those 3 signings will be made, but whatever ...
Also, if we are buying an attacker, I think this team needs someone fast and with powerful shot who can crack those bunkers up. Neymar won't improve us VS Chelsea like teams. Some muscle is definitely needed. And I'm not talking about big, strong no. 9 like Dzeko, Gomez, Drogba etc. I'm thinking someone like Bale would really improve us. Sadly that's never going to happend anywhere out of my dreams
Som el FC Barcelona i hem de remuntar
Cesar(cheap and desperate for the big time)
Dani-Pique-Puyol-Alba
Busquets
Xavi-Iniesta/Cesc
Messi-Falcao-Villa
Falcao at the middle would show just how good a crosser Dani can be
Falcao-Villa would guarantee extra 70 goals a season reducing the importance/reliance on Messi who's presence on the right would make cover for Dani because nobody will attack us from that wing as both the opposition winger and fullback would be too busy/scared of Messi. Messi on the right would aslo mean that teams cannot crowd the center anymore which would also create space for our midfielders.

Sell : Valdes, Song, Pedro, Mascherano, Alexis, Villa
Buy : Hummels and Neymar

Neymar is a risky buy but could pay off big time. He could also flop big time though. I'd rather use Villa or get Aguero, who we've been linked with. Some have suggested Reus and Suarez, which would also be good choices. Apparently, Juve are willing to pay 30m for Alexis. If that's true, that would be awesome.Originally Posted by mobster_1930
We have a budget of around 50m, right? If Juve really are willing to pay 30m for Alexis, that makes 80m. Selling Valdes could make that 85-90m. Afellay could make that around 100. Tbh, I don't think we should sell anyone else unless we need to. And definitely DON'T sell Mascherano AND Song, we need depth. We might want to sell one of them though. As for who to buy, we should go with De Gea/Lloris/Courtois/Ter Stegen (20m), Hummels (30m) and maybe Suarez (30-45m), Aguero (50m+), Reus (30-35m) or maybe Neymar (40-50m).
If Juve aren't willing to pay 30m for Alexis, we could sell:
Alexis: 15m
Valdes: 5-10m
Afellay: 10m
Mascherano OR Song: 15-20m
Which gives us 95m-105m to spend. 110-120 if Villa leaves (probably will if we get another forward). Which should be enough to buy Hummels, one of the aforementioned GKs and one of the aforementioned forwards (maybe not Aguero).
De Gea/Lloris/Courtois/Ter Stegen
Alves/Montoya - Pique - Hummels - Alba
Busquets
Xavi - Iniesta
Pedro/Tello/Cuenca - Messi - Neymar/Aguero/Suarez/Reus
*drools*
Best case scenario (IMO):
Lloris
Alves/Montoya - Pique - Hummels - Alba
Busquets
Xavi - Iniesta
Pedro/Tello/Cuenca - Messi - Aguero
I don't think there should be a set RW since we have so many wingers with different qualities. And people want variation in the lineup, and this is a good way to add some.

Btw, if all this happens, this is what our subs would look like:
GK: Pinto
CB: Puyol, Bartra, Muniesa, Abidal, Mascherano (maybe)
LB: Adriano, Abidal
RB: Adriano
CDM: Song/Mascherano
CM: Fabregas, Thiago
Wings: Villa (if he stays, which I doubt will happen if we get another forward). Since we shouldn't have a set starter on RW (IMO), there won't be any set "subs" either.
And if anything happens to Messi, we can use the new forward (Neymar, Aguero, Suarez, Reus, whoever) as the ST. And we might have some cash left over to buy 1-2 more squad players. Now that's what you call depth.
We could definitely win the treble with that kind of team.
12? We're not "uefalona," despite what people would have you believe

Tbh, I think this looks even better than what we had in 2011. MAKE IT HAPPEN TITO.
Aguero ? Not in a million years. He is not for Barca. We should stick with Tello and tweak a team a little bit with the addition of fresh new striker (Neymar) and world class CB (Hummels). We have enough depth in defence (Montoya, Adriano, Bartra, why not Abidal) and there is always Barca B with the emerging new players.
Neymar and Hummels ?
Neymar's unproven and a risk, but he could pay off big time. Though someone like Aguero/Reus/Suarez is a safer option IMO. But if the Neymar gamble pays off, we could be awesome.Aguero ?

Greatest Team of All Time
2008-2013
Hello Greatest Team of All Time 2.0
2013-
I've said it before, but I'll say it again: MAKE. IT. HAPPEN.
Just personally, what i'd like to see in general:
-Pedro not a starter and on the same peking order as Tello
-Sanchez in juve, or in china, I dont care, just far, far away.
-Iniesta in midfield exclusively
-More xavi/cesc/thiago/iniesta rotation without having any of them up front.
- a competent gk (????)
- A cb who can defend and is also fast in case he needs to stop a counter (Luiz? Hummels?)
-a forward that likes to try and score and not pass it back all the time (Aguero? Neymar?)
-cuenca/dos santos/ afellay/ oier loaned out/sold
-Deulofeu alternating more between first team and B team, before promoting him in 2014, maybe sooner if he earns it
