Didn't see why we'd need them both if we got a new CB (I was thinking 1 backup for Busquets would be enough), but fair enough. Took Mascherano and Song out.
IMO:
Players we should sell in the summer:
Afellay
Sanchez
dos Santos
Players we should buy:
A top goalie
A top CB (Hummels would be the best imo, but he'd be fucking expensive).
Neymar (The other 2 are definitely more important, but we might as well get him this summer IF we can, since we're...
We're probably gonna have to delay getting Neymar, since we'll probably look for Valdes' replacement this summer. Especially if we get a new defender as well.
Don't know why everyone's so mad. Valdes needs Barca way more than Barca need him. Just buy one of the keepers mentioned to replace him and we should be good to go.
The options:
Ter-Stegen
Pros: Young, great goalie (according to what I've heard), I hear he could potentially replace Neuer. He shouldn't be too hard to get either (he'll be pretty expensive, but he's playing for a fairly small team, so he should be willing to leave, especially if it's for a...

De Gea is Spanish. Then again, he does make a shitload of mistakes, according to what I've heard, so I'd definitely rather get ter Stegen or Courtois.Or, even better, Lloris or Neuer (like I said, Neuer is extremely, but one can always dream :p).
Agreed. People need to stop fucking overreacting. He's not as bad as people say, but he's still probably our worst starter. People are acting as if he's fucking Messi.
Btw, I wonder if Guardiola will be tempted to sell Neuer for Valdes + cash. Highly doubt it's gonna happen though, but it would...
Probably because Valdes has arguably one of the best teams ever in front of him. We didn't win all those trophies because of Valdes. We won them because of the great teams in front of him. Valdes is not as bad as people say, but there are better goalies.
Agreed. He's not as bad as people say, but he's not world-class imo, there are certainly goalies better than him. He's probably our worst starter. Whoever we get to replace him will probably be better, like you said. Just hope it isn't De Gea, coz I heard he makes as many mistakes as Valdes...
IMO, Neymar would be a big risk, but he can pay off big time. Can't be worse than Sanchez :p
But a defender should be the priority, as others have said.
Tito's done pretty well (though he does have great players), but I agree that he needs to stop starting Sanchez over Villa and Tello. The pecking order should be Pedro -> Villa -> Tello -> Cuenca -> Sanchez imo.
