[Doobs]

Ok now we done with forwards we need to sign a left back

You mean done with lb now for forward right?

Well the coment was a bit sarcastic but to tell the truth i can't really see how he could be our regular lb for next season.Given that should he join i hope he proves me wrong and becomes a legend.

I see what you did there..

Well, okay, hope Jordi shows up good... Its time to buy CB now, Titoman.

Vertonghen, please

 

[Pepe Silvia]

Alba? I'm getting sick... this signing sucks.

 

[UberNjufer]

Alba? I'm getting sick... this signing sucks.

but still 3 times cheaper than coentrao

 

[Barcaman]

Spanish international, home profuct and only 23. For 10-12 mil? Sounds good. He won't be Abidal though.

I think he'll be a decent fit, I really don't think it's that a risky of a move. This acquisition would allow us to go after a legit CB and possibly somebody like Suarez or Adrian.

Why do people get massive, unnecessary boners over players just because they are Spanish? I couldn't possibly give a shit less what nationality a player is or if he's a youth product.

We lost a tall, defensive LB and replaced him with a LB the size of Messi who CAN'T DEFEND.

That makes perfect sense. Pure logic, imo.

The only way this would make sense was if they plan to attack through him on the left-side, sell Dani Alves and replace him with a defensive RB. And I ask- Why?

 

[MagIX]

well said Co0ter!

We will have to lowest defense in the world (Alves, Masch and Alba: approx. average 1.70!) for the happiness of our opponents.

Why people are so excited to have Alba is really a mistery. No sense.

Catalan to boot...It's a positive move, I feel...I love his ability to attack and he's a La Masia pupil

Definitely not Abidal but honestly there are no Abidal's out there yet

 

[barcelonista]

He won't have a bad Euro individually because he'll play behind a double pivot and with Arbeloa playing rightback.

Ramos: 183 cm
Pique: 192 cm
Arbeloa: 183 cm
Alonso: 183 cm
Busquets: 189 cm

At Barcelona he would play behind a single holding midfielder, another midget wingback on the right side and another midget centreback (Mascherano):

Mascherano: 174 cm
Alves: 173 cm
Alba: 172 cm

As you can see: Barca = midgets. Spain = tall.

 

[Barcaman]

Also: Barca>Spain.
I don't get the height obsession. It's not basketball, you know.

 

[JonM]

Good deal. We can resell him for 20m+ right after the Euro

 

[barcelonista]

I don't get the height obsession. It's not basketball, you know.

One third of all the goals we conceded this season came from set pieces. Just sayin'.
