Ivan Perisic

[Horatio]

If we sell Depay, I would go for this guy. Veteran for free who rarely disappoints in big games. And we need transfer money for other positions.

you might be on to something.

 

[Temptation]

2 footed.
Fast.
Great in the air.
Great at crossing.
Hardworking af.
Proper big game player.

What an underrated gem. Been a fan since Dortmund days

 

[Barcilliant]

He is a perfect example 9f what a modern winger should be. But that's exactly the reason why we wouldn't rate him.

 

[MTL_Barca]

As overrated as Mandzukic

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

This man is just insane, even at the age of 36 he still cant stop scoring. Scored againtst Juve in first leg and now also in 2nd leg + assist.

Bayern should have kept him, he is probably more dangerous atm than Sane, Gnabry and Coman together.

 

[Fati_Future_BallonDor]

Super game vs Gibraltar with 4 scorer points.

I know it's just Gibraltar and Croatia won 7-0 but still for his age he looked still agile and fast.

 

[Barcaman]

LB, RB, LW, RW. Even a striker. Free. Coming from a great season with Dutch champions. Flick know him.

Could be a good backup solution for a season.

 

[vuji_31]

He is really proffesional player, and having him instead of Fati and Pau is great.

Also he is on low wages, and his last chance to ever play for great club like Barca, he would come here running from PSV.

Getting him and maybe Luiz Diaz to be sub winger options or even RB option in Perisic case would be great.

 

[draconifire]

But will he be able to give his all at the big age of 37?

I really have my doubts.

 

[Don Juan Laporta Estruch]

But will he be able to give his all at the big age of 37?

I really have my doubts.

To be effective at 37 you need to have a great mentality and great technique and he has both in abundance. Some of the goals he has scored in the past few years have been of absolute outrageous quality.

Could have the same sort of effect as his teammate Luuk did.

I'm all for it, given the shitty options that will cost big money. The guy can play anywhere.

 

[Maradona37]

Might be a good rotation option and is versatile; utility players are always a plus. Always quite liked him. Shame he isn't a few years younger, though. But as a backup he could prove useful for you.

 

[Horatio]

Couldn’t find his thread, otherwise I would have been the first to report on this.

So yeah, supposedly Barca is interested in him.

He has been pretty fit regardless of age. I have watched him quite a few times this season for PSV.

 

[gasgas]

Good option.

Super versatile, highly experienced, disciplined and committed player on low wages, wont hinder younger players, can rest a number of key players just like Eric Garcia.

These are the type of players to go for instead of lazy bums like Rashford.

 

[M3ls]

This is a good option. If I'm faced with a choice — Rashford/Leão or Perisic— I'll choose the latter, and it doesn't matter that he's 36. He's an incredibly hard-working player. That's exactly the kind of player Flick's system needs.


Rashford and Leao — they're two lazy guys, mood players, and the whole football world knows it.


Nico and Díaz — both are questionable options for various reasons.


Plus, if we bring in one of them, we'll have to somehow split game time among the attacking players. Even if Lewandowski plays less, Lopez, Olmo, and Ferran will suffer.


I said from the beginning — we need to sign a very young, talented player for the left winger position, someone who’ll be fine with limited game time at first, and then in, say, two years, fully replace Raphinha.


If that ideal option isn’t available yet, then we should go for a solid veteran who’s also ready to come off the bench.

This transfer will give us time to find a more suitable option for the left winger position. Maybe this season a left winger will emerge on our radar who fits us 100%. As I’ve already said, Nico and Díaz are not that kind of player — and Leao and Rashford even less so.

 

[soul24rage]

Great option as a squad player.

Would be great to get him.
