We need depth, we need creativity. Totally fine with this. He can play make and score goals. Good signing.

Free players on a rather low salary aren't what got the club in this mess. Anything that happened after Neymar with overspending for Dembele, Coutinho and Griezmann is what the club got into this mess. When you spend 450M on 3 players and only one of them becomes a fixed part in your first XI you are in big trouble. No need to even mention the salaries Bartomeu paid for average players and veterans after their prime.
Squad is full of players who are not good enough , no matter how much they cost or get paid. These two are just adding to the problem.

There is two sides to that argument.
One is that he may not be good enough for the standard of squad would want at Barca the other is he would still improve squad as it is just now.
He is a better CF than shite like Braithwaite by far and is an option out wide and run in behind opposition.
Will be fine for free and will improve the squad as it is just now. Worst case scenario he is sold for profit and he is not being signed as any big answer just another better squad option than is there at moment and allows for sale of other players from squad.

Yeah
Honestly I think Depay is the kind of player who looks good when you build around him,like in Lyon but isn't that good when he is part of the puzzle ina bigger team.
Kind like Riquelme back in the day
Lol what got the club in the mess it is in right now is spending 100m+ each on failed transfers like Dembele, Griezmann and Coutinho that didnt fit the slowmotion paced football the team plays and they were a bad fit from the beginning for the roles that were given to them, and Barto giving old past it shit players long contract extensions with enormous salaries intead of getting rid of them and paying like 20m for bums like Braithwaite. Depay for free cant really go wrong at all. In worst case scenario he is sold for a few millions profit.
