From what I've read, and things could be lost in translation, that this is what Alvarez wants and it seems both him and the club have an understanding. But the 70M figure is suggestion from Balassone himself, that Barca will need to negotiate with Atletico and it would take around that figure...

What pre injury? The 3 games in first team? Because Bernal was never a true CDM or a sitting Busi type, he was always b2b trying to adapt to CDM. He played more sitting when he arrived to first yeam because he was mostly trying to adapt to first division football and was being conservative...

He is one of Deco's assistants. He plays a role in b team and loans (or that is what we are told).

In an ideal world, you replace him with a good CDM transfer. In the reality we are in, you sell and replace with Gavi getting back, Bernal getting bigger role and Tommy fighting for the rest of minutes.

Only Cama can be considered a reliable witness here tbh. I don't know how they can prove anything, it seems like a situation that only the two involved knowa what happened. I think they might take Presti word (if he publicly sticks to it) that he called him pussy, and give him a slap on the rest

Motivation is obviously a factor, but also fitness and injuries are in play here. Raphinha and Pedri are two of the most important 3 players in our system and both got multiple injuries. While Kounde is playing like he has aged 5 years, right after being one of the most played players in the...

Cesc is another Motta until proven otherwise. His strongest ability is convincing owners to spend big, which isn't on the table for us.

6 in his last 15 games (854 minutes), 3 in Barca last 15 games (764 minutes). A goal every 255 is underwhelming for sure, but it isn't the most horrible outcome for a player out of form, which is what he is atm. You count Betis game, and that is goal every 142 minutes which isn't bad for him

Lewa is awful as a starter, he is every bit of a super sub atm He is even worse starter to Torres

He isn't currently playing for their B team because now he is negotiating with us. But even before that, he wasn't in their first team radar. Talented prospect but it will be too much to expect him to be first team signing right away.

Bisiwu is Barca Atletic signing, not first team one. He hasn't even made debut in Belgium league. A backup RB is needed, preferably someone who could take over Kounde when the later drop. Ratui seems like a decent option, but there have been history of players like that in Liga who disappoint...

Omar El Hilali? He is very defensive one and far more limited on offense than Kounde. I feel you are confusing him with their LB, Romero

Wasn't it up this season?

Back in 2018? Sure, he would be immense. Now? No. Father time is catching

The part in Italic is contradicting the part in Bold

His saving percentage in CL is behind Tek btw, this game he has been mediocrity. Great season overall, but in Cup games it feels like pressure can get into him

No one is claiming we can't, the question is why should we? What is the Sporting benefit? Like what did Anselmino do to Chelsea? Santos might be the only solid success from those loans, among dozens of deals. Same for City. You can throw money and buy whatever you want, no one is doubting...

What is the success rate for those two? It is more of a trade project rather than a sporting one. Chelsea burns ton of talent, and even struggle at times to get rid of them, all while having partner club in Strasbourg, in addition to under the table business with Saudi. City has same...
