    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    I had the same though but City team is weirdly built and not enough starting wingers there. I think Marmoush has been success so far and likely starting. So, Reijnders, Rodri, Cherki, Marmoush and Halaand. They are likely playing with 4 defenders, so one more starter is likely a winger. Summer...

    I won't be surprised if the official announcement is in July. It is a done deal folks, no need to wait for those official announcement soon.

    Transfers and Rumors

    Honestly, it is a bit weird start to your career to go to Turkey tbh. They aren't exactly known for being a development league.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    City fans on Bluemoon are actually not that high on Nico and feels that Pep isn't convinced. This is in a City team without Rodri or new signings like Reijnders. Nico is likely staying, and will be part of the rotation, but I doubt he will be a starter there.

    Viktor Gyökeres

    The idea is that Lewa won't last much longer (which has been said immediately after he was signed, and he is still going) and we need someone to replace him. One thing I like about Gyökeres is that he is a physical beast. Very strong and fairly fast, while he is 1.89m. He is even better than...

    Apparently, Grimaldo has a release clause for 15-18M and this is one of the reasons we want him, according to Deco mouthpiece aka F.Polo

    FC Barcelona: Win of the youth system

    Cardoso Varela rumours is back on the table. After turning us down 3 month ago to go to Croatia, now the rumour that he has 5M RC and we are interested. His agent is non other than Andy Bara (agent of Olmo, Faye & Joan García)

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Sure, you can take that as a lesson that PSG is a club that has too many flops and we shouldn't act like them. OTOH, we could also learn that they knew the importance of great CB duo and didn't stop until they achieve it. Barca OTOH, seems more and more in the comfort with our defense. It...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Inigo had a bad end to the season, though. And he had an awful first season here. Add that to the fact that he is 2 years older than Rudiger. Add that to the fact that he has only 1.726 career minutes in CL, vs 5.778 career minutes for Rudiger. Is it a safe bet that Inigo will still do...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Losing them indicates we actually had a chance. Both wantes immediate registration in the first team, which was impossible. The only reason we were even after them and they considered us was Deco.

    Our current GK shouldn't be the standard though. Better than Tek or Stegen shouldn't be the aim, a World class GK is what it should be. In this regard, his talking has merit. He might be "standing with a friend " or actually wanting a WC GK. He spent 8 years of his career playing beside prome...

    Luis Diaz

    LW is really needed, and while I agree a better CB and a solid LB are needed, LW is still a big issue. Wr can't rely on Fati/Victor level of players for depth. A lot will depend on who they see attainable in the market. If they don't identify a great CB, I can understand staying put for now...

    He flops, and he will still be starting for another couple of years because Barca is super loyal to GK, and then he will be loaned out until the end of contract, probably with us paying part of his salary. 25M for a GK is like 50M for a CB, he will be the 15th most expensive GK ever, with some...

    Luis Diaz

    Diaz won't improve our starting line up, but there is no way in hell you would argue that he won't improve the team. He is actually a guy with fairly consistent product every year and is a massive upgrade over Fati/Victor. Very versatile, hard working player on cheap cost. Price is actually the...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    There are ton of reports that the deal was identified by Deco's staff along Flick. I mean it depends on which reports you want to believe, people always tend to belief the reports that aligns with their pre-existing beliefs. But honestly, Laporta was never a guy identifying targets through out...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    The link doesn't work. But Deco works in synch with his team and Flick, he himself admitted he isn't the one selecting GK, as it isn't his area of expertise, which is actually the right attitude. But Deco is the one who makes those decisions at the end, by Laporta own admission.

    Both Raya and Simon are better GK atm, Simon numbers in La Liga are insane btw. 3rd spot will be wide open. But this could be a Valdes type of situation. One year ago, Arnau Tenas was starting over him in the Olympics and no one complained. Let's take it easy.
