We already had one such win.

Kounde
Lewa
Raphinha
Christensen

Without those 4, no 2 in 3.

How yah duwin.

The question is when we will have another such win.

The days of us spending 150-200m in transfers on a regular basis is over.

That will only happen every 3/4 years going forward until the club is fully back to a healthy position.

We'll have another window like that next summer, I'm thinking.

Those were unbelievable signings looking back.

All for a net spend of 50m euros
Liverpool will probably be 3x that by time it's done.

But my friend birdie will tell you Barca doesn't know what they are doing, while Liverpool have a bunch of genius running the club

In the last 15 years we pretty much signed almost only flops except the 2014 and the 2022 transfer window when we got everything right. Thank you Lucho, Xavi, Zubi and Alemany.

Those were meh signings sporting- and financially-wise in the only summer we were allowed to spend

- Christensen was the only wise choice (0m spent), which was not Xavi's (surprise surpise! the wisest choice in the lever-summer was not one requested by Xavi)
But then injuries caught him, so there are question-marks there as well
- Lewa was in WC form for 4 months until the World Cup in Qatar, then he faded into retirement. The worst money spent that summer
- Kounde was and still is underwhelming for 50m fee and 14m gross wages!!
- Rapha was underwhelming under Xavi, with only Flick coming to revive his career.

Also, to remind you that the same summer, Mr 'pretend-to-be-an-SD' Xavi also bought:
- Marcos fucking Alonso
- Kessie
- Bellerin
Hope you all agree that's 0/3

In retrospect, if that idiot that destroyed our lever-money, Xavi was not around, and Flick was around,
which of these do you think we WOULD and SHOULD have bought?
Personally, only Raphina

 

[Don Juan Laporta Estruch]

If I was him I'd wait a year, play the Champions with Newcastle and leave next year where Barca and maybe Real will be other options for him. He doesn't really lose anything because Liverpool will still be interested as well.

But I am not him and it seems God has instructed him to move now. Meaning it will be Liverpool and not Barca that overpays for him. He's a decent player but he's not close to being worth what it will take to buy him and hence is a poor transfer.

Yet more evidence that under his robes, God is wearing a Barca shirt.

 

[Jenks]

The current rumour is Chelsea go for him, with Jackson as a sweetener the other way.

 

[ZenI]

100% leaving, he didn't travel with the team on their Asia tour...
So I guess Liverpool is picking him up, no? I haven't really heard anything else.

After spending 300m, they have another 150m lying around?

Thanks for reminding me of kessie another good signing that summer and great business.

If Liverpool buy Isak and the other kid, then I want to hear 0 about Liverpool the under dawgs and how smart the sporting department is.

True that. Liverpool spending more than the oil clubs made @Temptation commit harakiri.

See you on the other side dude.

RIP.

Yeah, insane - and we can't register a goalie lol, I'm just waiting for the drama with the Rashford registration 🫣
I'm sure Bilbao again will get secret info under the table from Tebas and ask for investigation etc

 

[ZenI]

I will be 💩 my pants all next summer that we pay 130m plus for either him or Alvarez. Those two cats are going to be around 40m overpriced.

Will make the Diaz 70m rumours look like a cartoon in comparison to the above Texas Catalan Massacre.

Alvarez imo is like a 30M player - I really don't see it with him... bang average.
