If we had transfer funds we would have a shot. 30-40m BO as it stands. And despite Laporta's posturing we are still one of the biggest wage payers.
7 - Ferran Torres
- Thread starter M3ls
- Start date

Well yes clearly if had more money have better chance but cant see it unless some deal to send players there.. Nico/Abde etc and probably another on top would be needed.

The only thing that'll stop Abde from being our squad next season is if we get an offer that we can't resist (within the range of 30-40m). Left wing is one of the major problems in the squad that'll need to be rectified by next season, and with the state of our finances right now, we aren't spoilt for choices

No one is paying 30-40m for Abde and he is not good enough for Barca first team squad.
Vastly over rated based on a few highlights.
Would guess he is sold and for nearer to 10m than 40m.
Lets see.

We'll need two left wingers cos Fati has to leave on loan and one of Torres and Raphinha will be sold, so which good left wingers do you think we can get, and do you think that we have left wingers in the b team that if given a chance, would do a better job for us than Abde ?

Fati and Torres are better than Abde but even then could easly be a fourth midfielder there again but need more goals/assists.
Abde is not even that great for Osasuna.
Can dribble but not type of player to play in system like Barca for me.
Lets see but I dont think any club will value Abde even close to 40m and dont think he will be in Barca squad either. Would guess will be sold on for a lot less.

But worse wingers than him have been sold for higher prices you know ??? And I specifically mentioned that price cos it's one that Barca wouldn't resist. The market nowadays is as inflated as fuck, so stuff like that are very possible
Hes shown alot of improvement lately. It's been a bit of a guilty pleasure to watch Osasuna this season.
Sounding like a broken record but he needs more time there. Arrasate has taken him under his wing.
Suits the way Xavi sets up his wingers though. But will be a deer in headlights for us again (if back in setup next season) once he loses his confidence imo.

Abde barely creates chances for them and makes a lot of mistakes... not what Xavi wants.
More or less a wild card for Osasuna doing his own thing to try and open up game.
Can have some great dribbles where opposition and him dont much idea of what it will end with.
A player who has been in and out of Osasuna team and is no where near one of their most creative players or a goal threat all that often despite his cup games. Makes some bizarre choices on ball and not consistent passer.
Dont think Barca will value him way is seen on here by some.
Could be wrong. Lets see.
What 'worse' wingers have gone for 40m on back of what they have shown?
Abde has not shown a fraction of what is made out this season.
Doubt there is a clamour to pay tens of millions for him and goes for a lot less.

Been a starter of late. Only rested for the Copa games. Prob would have been sooner if not for the injury setback leading into WC break.
I think any progress that's been made this season will be undone returning under Xavi though.
Type of player Madrid sell but keep wrapped around their finger just incase over the next 2-3 years they go "fuck it" and bring em back. Ceballos and the next one- Brahim.
Type of player we bring back and he has trickle of minutes here and there coz we need a goal and Xavi takes off Gavi for him on 85, and his value, form and interest tanks.

We are in March and Abde has 3 goals and 2 assists and has not been a regular starter even if more so recently.
For chances created in league he is 13th at Osasuna with 0.4 per 90 mins.
For passing he is 18th at 73%
Second in team for shit touches.
First in team for ball losses.
Shots per game he is 5th
Can dribble and very much off the cuff with no cunt in either team sure of what is coming next but outwith that he lacks a lot of the basics that Barca need.
Not even one of best wide players in La Liga or particularly close.
Folk would lose the plot very quickly with him at Barca.

Still would be behind Ferran in our pecking order.

Finally, an unbiased poster. I agree that for every point to bring him back, there's another point to sell him. If LW wasn't a major need in the squad, I wouldn't mind if he stays or leaves. Do you have any cheap but good left winger in mind that'll do a better job than Abde or any B team left winger that can do a better job than Abde if given a chance ?
Marcus Thuram on a free transfer would be the obvious pick, although there will be competition for his signature.
