    Erling Haaland

    I just hope someone in the sporting department just realise that as long as Messi is here another associative attacker is not the way to go. And even in the future, Lautaro is not good enough. Haaland is a 9 who can complement Messi and actually help him since he is a true attacker and finally...

    Thiago Translantara

    PSG apparently bid 30m. Thiago-Verratti, unreal midfield man

    Trincão

    Well I dont see anything extreme in what I wrote. If he become a long term starter (nobody mentioned superstar) I will be surprised. I also dont believe he will develop into a good sub. Thats my criteria for success. Whats yours? A couple of good games and glimpses of potential like Arthur or...

    Trincão

    Well lets see in a couple of months. I will be surprised if Trincao make it long term here. I think its another case of Cules overrating a Sevilla/Valencia/Roma level player like Arthur. But lets see.

    Trincão

    Both Pedro and his prime and Gnabry now are players who constantly are looking to run in behind and constantly offers penetrative runs. They act and move like attackers. Trincao is not of that mold, he wants the ball at his feet and we already have plenty of those players.

    Trincão

    I prefer goalscoring wingers rather than player like Trincao. All top teams play with goalscoring wingers and outlets which Trincao is not. Liverpool with Mane/Saleh, City, Bayern, Madrid, even us when we most successful had guys like Henry, Eto'o, Neymar, Pedro, Villa etc etc on the wings. No...

    Quique Setien

    He obviously knows where the problem lies. He has a great football brain and has a team of football nerds. Valverde most likely knew it too but couldn't do shit either. Lucho the only on who could convince Messi to stay wide and play as a attacker. Messi should man up in the CL and play as a...

    Mavericky Puig

    Small sample size but thats very very impressive. I look forward to see him in the CL against the best, lets see if he can perform at the highest level. After the CL it will be easier to judge his talent and how good he can be in the future.

    Thiago Translantara

    If we are being realistic, I actually wouldn't be surprised if the board is working on the Thiago deal away from media. Possibly also Alaba. Its just a feeling a have. Aubameyang IMO also a realistic option especially if Arsenal is serious about Coutinho. But Partey no way.

    Thiago Translantara

    Imagine if our board could get Alaba for 20m, Thiago for 30m, Partey for 50m and Aubameyang for 20m. 120m, possibly lower it by involving Coutinho. About 20m more than one Lautaro. Its not like this is a wish scenario but the most frequent price mentioned for these players. What a team that...

    24 - Eric García

    Good point. Low risk, high reward transfer.

    24 - Eric García

    Is he even good? I watched 2-3 games and not impressed at all. Not the type of CB I want. City fans describe him as intelligent but lack psychical attributes and very slow. Doesn't sound interesting to me.

    CL | 1/8 Final: FC Barcelona - SSC Napoli 4-2 (agg.)

    Agree with this. Frenkie should not play as a lone DM in such a important game, he can't do that fully yet. He is best in a double pivot and so is Rakitic. Puig a little infront of them. As reported today from MD, Setien will instruct Messi to play a a forward which I really really hope he will...

    Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

    This would be the perfect addition if he had a younger base. Like when we added Henry to a team of Alves, Messi, Iniesta, Toure etc etc. But as someone else wrote sometimes to many stopgaps is difficult to fit in even though Auba is top top quality and exactly what we lack in attack. He would...

    Lautaro Martinez

    Mane the best winger in the world of football played for RB. Haaland, on his path to becoming world class, aswell. Daka is scoring at a rate almost similar to that of Haaland and linked to several top clubs. We already had a 15m bid on Adeyemi rejected when he was 17 and played for RB B (!)...

    Lautaro Martinez

    I agree about Leipzig, besides Hwang they have a lot of interesting players. But it doesn't seem to be our strategy to move from players from such teams. I have mentioned Daka before as a interesting option. They also have Adeyemi who I believe will be one of the best forwards in the future but...

    Lautaro Martinez

    There is a severe lack of great strikers in the world at the moment. So few attackers and so many of these "associative great at building up players". Subpar teams could have strikers like Anelka, Kanoute, Luis Fabiano and top teams wouldn't even look at them. I would love to have someone like...

    4 - Ronald McDonald Araújo

    Give him a prominent role next season. He is someone who deserves a fair chance. If we plan to let him rot on the bench much better to send him on loan then. Valverde rated him over Todibo and I agree. Todibo maybe a better footballer on the ball and going forward but Araujo overall a better...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    With Puig finally looking like a first team player + Pjanic + Trincao (who I believe in the future will be moved from the wing to a central position ala Di Maria, De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva etc etc) + Pedri + plenty of talent in La Masia (Moriba, Monchu), no midfield player should be signed IMO...

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    Yes Bojan 07/08 season was really great probably even better than this Fati season. I read somewhere bach then that some coaches in La Masia considered him better than Messi but stilled failed to make it. He lacked that "aggressiveness" and eager to success. Im bit afraid Fati will lack the...
