From start we weren't the best offer, he had better offer with Frankfurt and now Spurs are said to be offering a package that could reach 20M. That is significant difference from the 6M initial offer. Barca has way too many young players in his position, even younger ones than him. Fans were...

Do you see him as CM or DM in Barca?

A lot of rumours about Aleix Garcia, seems like we think of him as our future defensive midfielder. A CM moved to CDM who looks good under Michel's Girona. Not too optimistic about it tbh. His release clause is 20M with some rumours that it becomes lower next summer (14M) and with Girona...

They have no money for something else

First of many

Roque made many runs expecting Romeu to make a pass behind the defence :ROFLMAO:

Torres this season

KP was one of those cases where he is good enough to be best player on a bad team, but not good enough to be best player in a contender. In the Knicks they treated him as the future and gromed him as such, so when he had to be Luka's sidekick it was an issue. He had the tools to be a great...

If Laporta contacted Rijkaard for a job, it will be as a consultant most likely, not as a coach.

I think he is rated well enough tbh, although I think in general early bloomers who didn't reach the Ballon d'or level are usually underrated. Football fans have more appreciation for those who lasts in their 30's. Rooney prime ended so early tbh, hard to believe he is younger than Modric for...

Olympics is 6 months away, so should be fine for his type of injury tbh. The ones that I would hate seeing in Olympics are Gavi, as their is a risk of rushing him and, wait for it, Pedri as Spain loves using him in Euro & Olympics compo. Eric is also eligible for it but hopefully he will be on...

This is one of the most common stupid mistakes that players do tbh, coaches leaves all the time and making a decision based on someone you are likely to outlast isn't that smart IMO. Hell, even Klopp is leaving Liverpool after 9 years.

All 8 teams that qualified to QF in 2022 are entirely different in 2024. Amazing turn over :ROFLMAO: Still, expect a 2002 WC scenario, and we end up with Ivory Cost vs Nigeria .

I don't get it, how so? He isn't 18!!

Low risk low reward on comparison to those. Arda and Echeverri are attackers with high ceiling, Moscardo fits our biggest hole. OTOH, Lucas is way cheaper.

It will be for next year, as this season it will be loan from B team, won't affect our situation this year at all tbf. It is never like that, those are always seperate saga. @Porque I guess it is mainly because I don't rate Faye that high, so I think it is always better to cash on a...

Don't know where to post this, so naturally this is the place. I had a look at the contracts of our players, and for some reason Alemany is leaving Deco with some work to do. Mainly because of 2026 contracts For a desired player, 2 years before the end of contract is when you start getting...

We bought Faye for 1.5M (that was the accurate sources said later, and TM list) on a 4 year contract. That will be around 8M profit for a club that will try to get whatever it can in an awful financial situation. Not bad tbh. Well, how many times did we have 2 young successful CB succeed at...

There is a rumour that this is why his transfer to France failed, and he went to 2nd division in Croatia, a passport "issue" of some sort that made them reluctant. Could always be stereotype of African players, but also it kind makes sense considering his career trajectory. You don't go from a...
