That is a totally different point. PSV and Eredeviese were fairly rich and big when Ronaldo went there btw, different times before the Bosman laws changed football forever. Maradona arrived to Barca directly himself. There is always talents like this. Just like Estevao moving to Chelsea. But...

A lot of people don't realise that when they speak about how we should cut the middle man and get talents early on before other smaller clubs get them. But many times this just destroy talents

Barca salaries overall matches the squad we have. Last year we had around 4th biggest masa-salary (official UEFA numbers) and we had probably the second best team last year. Players and agents knows their values, I don't believe the bs about paycuts, but I also don't believe we overpay. Every...

Lewandowski seems to already have a deal in Chicago and likely moving there. It isn't a done deal but very likely. I don't think it is even up to us, as we won't offer him big contract. The club is rightfully waiting patiently to see how he perform at the end of the year, but I doubt he is...

If anything, this feels like they won't count on Chris next year and are just doing the player and the agent a solid, giving him little assurance while he navigates through other offers

I've no idea what is P2P :ROFLMAO: I forgot that Pacifico has Italian citizenship, that explains it.

The question isn't whether the system is optimal for him, but him being optimal for us. I think he is as good as it gets in that regard, you won't find many players with better skill for the system. He could be a bit more athletic but then we will be looking for a prime VVD. However, Italians...

It is no coincidence that both players were bought in the same positions of other transfers. They aren't there for immediate help of the B team, rather for a trial period to see what they have. Just seeing them on daily basis on training ground against other top prospects, and maybe even a...

Apparently it is expected that ot will take around 1.5 to 2 months for his paperwork to be finalised and then be able to play. Most likely Patricio will be the same, as it us the case for most players out of EU

Icardi is the most notable in that time period. Sandro, Abel & Munir had some decent career. None was Barca worthy

Laporta is actually a great recruiter and manage to hire many high profiles. However, he fails to retain anyone not named Yuste.

Indeed :kounde: Congrats mate

Tunkara is an AM/SS who is also injury prone from what I've read. Bisiwu is LW, slmost exclusive there Nomoko and Diarra are the only worthy RW in the youth who close to first team (not some 14 years old kids). Diarra is more of AM himself and lost this sesson to injuries, Nomoko had...

Honestly, the most I hope for is another loan in Monaco where we don't pay part of his salary. Then it will be one year left and we go from there

Livramento might be going to City himself. City is another interesting option, and I've seen many of their fans liking him but thought he won't be available. Bayern too lacks a clear player there. Kounde has a market, he is a good starter in a good Barca side 4 consecutive seasons, and...

I mean, Deco is suing him, so no surprise he won't work with him :ROFLMAO:

2 games against Atletico is too much strain on a thin squad tbh. I prefer one of the Basque and hope the other beats Atletico in the Semis

Kounde is a RB atm, regardless of what he once was or what he was bought for. He isn't big enough or athletic enough (jumping ability) to be a starting CB in a big club. He was a perfect fit for Xavi's ball as a defensive RB, for Flick he is a decent fit when he is in form, which only happened...

He isn't. Kounde was always the last major signing, they needed a RB desperately at the time as we had none. We even needed grantees to register him until we sell Auba. Xavi always talked about back 4 that has the versatility of becoming back 3 with with one becoming CB and the other becoming...
