Dead serious mate. Think your trolldar is a bit messed up from all the rubbish you post.

Some Barca fans like to think players would just join them because of the crest or 'dying to play with 33 year old Messi since you'll never get another chance' lol. If you're Partey, you've just beaten Liverpool with what most 'elite' consider to be a burnt out Simeone project. People with their head screwed on their shoulders (unlike Fortnite, who just wanted a few slightly more talented attacking mates around him for a change), particularly those who know they got it good on defensive end, won't necessarily want to go and join a team where you'll have to pull the weight of 3-4 players almost all of the time while also not being certain of the minutes for 2 years going into your prime. Natural reaction is to middle finger such big clubs if you're Partey. Especially those that employ sodall meritocracy.

Stop dreaming lads. Ndombele is what you can try to hope for if he doesn't grow to like Mou.

Yeah wanna know why?

Bigger salary, playing with Messi, chance to win trophies, playing better football, like just ask his pal griezmann why he left lmfao and apply same logic to Partey.

You shoukd be asking why would he want to go to Arsenal

Wolfe, man, you went overboard with that. Don't let the moaning around here change the fact that we've been Spanish Champions in 4 of the last 5 years.

We are a very dominant powerhouse of a club, just not as dominant as we dream to be in Europe.

In other words, we have issues, but we're pretty damn consistent at winning big titles almost every year. And, in comparison with teams like Bayern, Juventus, and PSG, we aren't the only elite team in the league.

Doesn't matter lads. It's the same discussion that's been had time and time again. It's really only people like FDJ that would actually pick you over other offers on the table provided no ridiculous wages are on the table, because of their ideologue attitude. Or those that don't know what's best for them i.e. Griez or Coutinho.

Nothing could be farther from the truth. We are tier 1 in terms of attractiveness, probably only Madrid compare. Crazy to even suggest otherwise. Sure, sometimes if we don't match some other offers financially we'll lose players, but that's a different discussion.

Whatever state we are in Barca is a dream club for most footballers. Nothing can change that. Barca/Madrid are at the top, the rest follow somewhere underneath. As for Atleti.... lol their attractiveness is way below ours, they’ve won 2 trophies in the last 5 years to our 10 trophies and them beating Liverpool is the same as them beating us and Bayern previous years just to then go on and bottle it. Nothing to see here.. move along.

Sure it's a dream club. But playing for this club right now is far from realizing a dream. And most players who got it pretty good right now would rather avoid you unless you provide some over the top conditions. Because they know how much money you flunked for players who don't really care that much about you and how lovely you treat the players that do try. Therefore nowhere near in terms of attractiveness to teams that actually employ meritocracy and still win titles, still are likely to compete in the CL and still provide respectable salary and life conditions.

Which club is more desirable than Barca?

I think it is the opposite of what you are claiming and more players want to sign than would actually be a good career move at this point.

Barca have no problem wanting players to arrive have more an issue when want them to leave if anything.

Yeah, that's why we were so close to make the treble last year. :lol:

You are mixing apples with oranges here.

Not disputing that. It's the reason why they arrive, there's no lack of recruitment, as evidenced by aces like KBP or Murillo taking a deal. Issue is the good ones with good leading mentalities don't. Because they smell a shitty culture when they see the policy and its effects.

If Partey had the same offers from Bayern, Barcelona, City or Liverpool and looked at purely at the sporting aspect, there's no question what the hierarchy is and where Barcelona place.

Not really. You're the ones taking a trophy as the ultimate attraction factor for a player, not me.

Man, these are not issues with players. This is a management issue. Players don't care for these technicalities.
