    Deco

    Joaquín Sánchez only retired months ago, could still convince him to come back to fulfil one of Laporta's old dreams :ROFLMAO:

    Deco

    Xavi is the one with 1 year left in contract who is making a lot of demands. I think at some point it will be easier for Laporta to change the coach than SD.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    When the market dries up at the end, there will be clubs who will talk themselves into 22 years old RB from Barca as a cheap option on loan. No need to release anyone now.

    Joan Laporta

    I mean, which players did Laporta signed and we didn't offer a competitive financial offer? Again, look at Dembele case, club publicly shamed him and his agent, but once he accepted a reasonable financial offer it was all forgotten. We didn't make it personal or anything. Laporta has pulled...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Raphinha is a good starting winger. The main issue is that he is more in the mold of Giuly & Pedro while the club lacks wingers or no 9 who are Elite world class, and playmaking from midfield needs some working But that isn't on Raphinha to blame tbh

    Xavi Hernández

    Don't see how teams like Milan or Inter had better attack than ours when they made it to CL SF. Squad is good enough for current standards of teams outside City. There is a lot of space for improvement for sure especially on the bench. What we need is more dynamic attack, but that is on the...

    Joan Laporta

    I don't get this logic. Laporta didn't succeed in his first tenure because of club history or brand, but by hiring the right guys. His second tenure so far is a success, with the exception of European results in Basketball and Football sections. He knows money talks, and he is managing the club...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Because long term money needs legacy, and he won't have it. Look at Messi massive deals he was offered in both USA and KSA, more than he earned in Barca in the case of the later.

    Alex Collado

    Collado is 24 years of age with 1831 minutes in Liga. He isn't exactly that young or that promising, tbh I am not even sure why Betis signed him

    Ousmane Dembélé

    PSG would pay us to take Neymar, unless they found a Saudi team who wants him. His wages alone is massive, he is so injury prone, he is no longer a winger.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Mbappe and Harry Kane are the absolute legends of the modern eras of their clubs. Rate Dembele as high as you want, he is simply no where near their status, niether in the club or globally This is more like Bayern taking Sane from City, rather than Kane or Mbappe wanting out. The club was...

    ⁹ He is a weird case, looks like a future LW based on playing style, but always plays a RW.

    Abde Ezzalzouli

    Abde has to create a productive chaos to have a role here. It won't be a starter role in such role, but both Torres and Fati rely more on positioning than creativity, and while they are different players they rarely provide a "spark" from the bench. Abde can provide that on paper even if he is...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Dembele will get 25M signing bonus as part of his buyout. Do you think he can get more next year? He is 26, has injury history. One bad injury next year and he will be giving up a lot of money tbf. From financial stand point, I think leaving now is best for him over becoming FA

    Ousmane Dembélé

    PSG doesn't need to make unrest. News is from legit journalists afaik, and it seems PSG interest and preparation to trigger his release clause is real. Whether or not he accepts is another question, but the news probably means his agent ready for it. At the end the player will decide for himself

    Ousmane Dembélé

    RW: Raphina & Torres LW: Fati & Abde CF: Lewandowski & Roque We will also use 4th midfielder a lot. Just hope we improve back up FB situation and 2nd GK if he leaves

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Man,it is kind of annoying how many deals were announced as close and then no news. F.Diaz, Zambrano, Fresneda. Although last 2 popped again last 2 days.

    Arthur

    That's rather optimistic, my guess is that he will be back in Brasil once his contract is over with Juve. I would say Arthur is a case of people valuing profile without being able to determine quality. Remember Jean Michaël Ser? The African Xavi? Club was close to get him before Arthur became...
