Laporta is a specialist in making the entire playing staff feel like shit and even new players are not safe from media harassment and being forced out apparently. Maybe Depay will be the next victim of Laportaitis after Emerson

I don?t think Depay is good enough to be our saviour.. and we do need a special player just to try and catch up with everyone else now .

I think we need either Cavani or Ibra just for this season ..and both would come I think

Why do we need a savior? Barca is moving away from relying on 1 player and hopefully we don't ever go down that route again.

de Ligt - Aruajo looks pretty damn good admittedly but Memphis going the other way is bullshit.

Yes it is his fault that he plays like he does, and he is (as are we) very lucky that Messi isn't still there, so that the 30% of passes that he misses doesn't take away from Messis possession but de Jongs and Demirs. But I think both these players would be a lot better off if they got to play with for example Konrad instead of Depay.

...so this is the root of all these anti-Depay takes. :lol: You're one of those people who believe that la Masia is the solution to all problems. Did you also think Alena-Puig was the midfield of the future?

Konrad hasn't done anything of note to merit comparison to Memphis.

I've read the entire article of Marco Van Basten regarding Depay. You can read on www.newsnow.co.uk. Marco clasfies him as very individualist, try to dribble too much , "not a team player" like all Barcaplayers are passing a lot each other and I fully agree Marco. Honestly, we do not need a player like this guy to dribble a lot without success when he can pass at the right time to other to score. In last game against Levante he wasted many chances of goals doing so. Too individualist and for sure not what Barca use to have.
And yes, Laporta want to sell him and ter stegen to Juvenile for de Ligt. At least I have read too on the same already mentioned website.
We need a reL striker to score and not a wasteful player like this one. I would like to see him starting on the bench or hopefully Cowman will draw his attention about this aspect.

Nah. Our team lacks selfishness. Too many guys passing the ball around for fun. He has desire to score, that's positive in his position.

Wouldn't surprise me if we moved him on. If we do a good transfer it's only natural we undo it as quick as we can, such is the circus nature of this club.

This version of Hazard? Of course. Prime Hazard is no contest. Also, Ansu is better than Vini even in one leg, i agree. But we don't have someone as Camavinga unfortunately. Also, we don't have a forward as good as Benzema.

If there's one thing we have it's plenty of young midfield talents.

The big one is Benzema. We wouldn't be far off Madrid if everyone was fit though. Unfortunately that's a stretch at the moment.

What bad timing for a rumour of this sort to emerge. Season just started, new signing who has adapted well given the circumstances and this comes out in the media. Sometimes we are so self-destructive.

Thing is it really wouldn't surprise me if it were true. Depay is on a 2 year contract so the board may prefer to try and utilise him in a trade after a season rather than risk either losing him or a free, or having to negotiate a wage over the new structure.

If they do so, then they better have a better signing in place to replace Depay, and GK to replace ter Stegen. Both of which I doubt we do given budgets.

Oh, and De Ligt is not showing a level right now deserving of such a signing. And even if he did, only consider it if he decided to leave Raiola.
