Xavi Simons and Bernal while helping with FFP improves the team.

Fermin has some top moments and games.. he also has some terrible ones where off at HT or early.
None of it matters as long as Fermin and Casado don't ask to be sold themselves. We don't push La-Masia talents out, who identify with the club, improve the team and had their breakthrough recently. That's not how Barca operates. Xavi Simons is exactly the wrong La-Masia example, who left the club for money. If you kick out the homegrown players that want to stay, but call the ones back who left you for money, then you lose your identification and give a bad example to La-Masia kids. Casado and Fermin have to be prioritized before Xavi all the time.

Improving finances and the team isn't the only thing to look at.

It we cant register him now, i would rather we send Bardghi on loan for a season rather than selling Fermin. Let the board put up a personal guarantee to register Tek and Martin.

If we sell Fermin just to bring Rashford on loan... mon dieu.

If anything, I think Fermin is above Gavi in the pecking order. It seems like I was right to not want Olmo here despite being a decent player.

Only way they should sell Fermin is if they get a crazy 100M offer.

Indeed no one can or will force them out.

Likes of Casado is 4th choice in his one position when all fit.

It opens up chances for more La Masia players and no one is looking badly at likes of Casado and Fermin going from being not rated highly at La Masia to sticking at it and getting a move.

Barca took Pique back, took Fabregas back, took Olmo back, took Garcia back.... none of that had a negative impact on La Masia and players produced.

Barca need to take decisions for the best of the team and never keep on inferior players as they are from La Masia.

Has never worked that way and never will.

If we sell Fermin then door is open for Bardghi at AMC to be fair. Depends the level Flick truly sees him at.

I honestly believe if we get behind one of Dro, Guille, Toni though, that one can surpass Fermin. It's just seemed a year too early but hey, FFP calls.

We will be a far worse team than what we had with Xavi. Imagine that.

No amount of FFP this generates will take away the depth we will lose. We are not going to recover from it.

I would rather not have Martin & Roony registered than have them without Fermin.
Nope I am not taking this shit.

Finally after decades we have insane depth and squad in our Midfield, and we are going to forgoe that just for FFP. This is a Barto-level club sabotage. You can have it in a writing.

Lampard and Thiago comparisons :lol:

You lot have to be joking.

This guy isn't starter material for any top club and you're dreaming of 100M.

If we lose him (and getting no reinforcements for CB), we will be lucky to win even CDR. This is arguably a worse squad than 23/24 injury-ridden Barca. I'm absolutely shocked at how bad the squad planning has been this year after all the trophies we won. Downright embarrassing and I'm surprised that Flick hasn't had a fight with Deco and Laporta.
