Also the biggest reason, Mats is a bum, otherwise clubs would be standing in line to get him for the deal Ajax got.

Tek for all his faults brings more stability and confidence in the backline.
 
At this point, Mats is a perma injured has been. If he were worth anything at all, there'd be a club willing to offer something for him. This way, we're stuck paying his full salary or close to it.

I imagine Tek would secure a better offer if willing to move and on the market. At least he's available.

Bon voyage Mats!
 
MATS is levels above Scz as a player when fit.

It is injuries that are putting clubs off.

Better hope Garcia doesnt get injured. Scz cant move his feet and is as rash as ever.

Tek would move easier because he doesn't have a big salary. Nothing about ability here, he never was a better GK than Stegen.
 
Some idiotic management from the club to loan out a GK of Ter Stegen's ability while still paying his full salary and instead looking for alternatives on the market or even worse renewing Szczesny as no 2.
Should've kept Garcia as starter and Stegen as backup, and you have the position well covered. Szczesny is a calamity if Garcia gets injured.

Yep, or they should've kept Pena as a backup for Garcia and get rid of Tek who is a walking catastrophe.

But selling Pena for peanuts, keeping Tek and and loaning Mats while paying his full salary is pretty much the worst they could do.
 
Do you honestly think Mats would accept being a backup and stripped off captaincy? Knowing Mats it would hurt his ego immensely to be there just to make Joan Garcia as comfortable as possible. It was never an option.
Probably makes sense. But still, letting him go and paying him almost full salary instead of trying to work things out and keep him as no 2?

Pena wanted to leave.

It was between tek/mats

Apart from personal issues I would keep Mats. We are paying him a shit ton anyways

Agreed.

Perhaps Mats isn't even interested in becoming a 2nd GK at this point.

Dressing room also not really fond of him. A 2nd GK needs to be fairly humble and understand his role.

Maybe. Although the story that the dressing room is not fond of him seems cooked up. He never had disagreements with the group after Messi and he was main captain.

Clubs weren't willing to offer much, if anything, that's why we ended up covering most of his wages. If other clubs were in for it, we might've offloaded the bigger chunk.

Salary and primarily injuries kept the clubs away. He cannot be relied on in any way. Even if we ignore alleged personality issues.
 
I mean tek has kept some pretty goated keepers on the bench or had them leave clubs.

It's not far fetched to think if both were at Barca he would bench mats.
 
No chance at all.

I believe you think it.
100%. Anyway, who cares, I told you nobody would take this overrated keeper and I was right. Easiest situation ever.

No serious top keeper cries in the media to get the club to sell his competition because he doesn't start over the guy. That was "prime" Stegen.
 
His injuries are his issue...

No top team would take Tek as a starter.. not even Ajax.

Peak MATS was levels above and not close.

He didnt cry to get anyone to leave either.. just more ignorance.
 
Both Tek and Ter Stegen at the moment are shit

Difference between them is that Ter Stegen would cry in the media, demand that he plays and act like a spoiled child if he had to sit on bench for Garcia

This is backed up by previous incidents where Ter Stegen did not accept any potential competition for the GK role. Because he is a coward, which he shows on the pitch all the time too

While Tek treats him as a friend and wants him to teach him as much as possible

This is really all there is to it. Keeping Stegs far away from Barça is the best decision club could have made
