Good question, me neither.

Barca is a big unknown imo. Not that I mean we'll all of a sudden become a CL competitor, but many unknowns. There's some quality which is not yet utilized well. For instance, our defence is an unknown. There's Dest, Emerson, Araujo, Mingueza, Garcia, Pique, Lenglet, Umtiti and Alba available...

Well played by Koeman. Two weeks before the NT break is the perfect timing.

Yeah, but you either give him what he asks for (and others, too) or watch someone else do it. With some clubs having money stream from outside, it cannot be helped.

Was already though to offload him this summer. I doubt we see his back at the doors before he decides it's time to move to the US.

:lol: Barca twitter (and a good chunk of the forum tbh) would implde

Pep will get some coins in my book if this happens.

Apparently, Real's sporting departement advised Perez to sign him, but Perez refused due to a pact with Barca (Laporta).

Not having a release clause comes with other benefits. Like higher wages or bonuses. It's not like Levy would agree to a lowball clause anyway. He had the upper hand at that time with Kane keen to stay and the club being in good place.

40% should be the minimum reduction imo. Anything bellow and it's not worth keeping him. Who's gonna pay him that much anyway?

Happens every summer. After the club had tried every option on the table and Umtiti refused them all and opted to stay, we make him look like a new signing hoping to reduce the tension.

What's smart about it? Sitting on the bench for a season and a half (he might've hoped he'd win Koeman over in the beginning) fully aware you're not gonna play while waiting for Xavi who might, but also might not come? And at the same time, all that club's proposing is a loan deal. Serghei...

Wow, I didn't even see an add

Poor Dest seems to be your main enemy these days. But that spot does seem cursed for Barca.

Didn't watch either game, but this thread's opinion turned from amazing to utter trash real quick. Some days ago folks discussed him reaching Pique's level, today he's on his way to Getafe.

Welcome Tommy! :)

But the wife doesn't like you anymore, she's going either way. Now you either take what's best left in the open air or try to enter the pairs only club on your own. Sport and Mundo put it on the front page "Can CRonaldo take this Barca side to glory, a task at which Messi failed"? He'd pay us...

Wait, not watching. There's NO keeper in?

What's there to swallow? Or be offended about? Like a guy feeling bad for dating a 7 after a 10 has dumped him :coffee: because of the 10. Might not be as good, but better than being single.

Messi couldn't have continued at Barca for nonspecific reasons. That's the biggest football story of the summer. You don't think bringing in his archenemy would be huge? We'd instruct players to cross. We need someone who can finish.
