Great game by him today. If we do sell him (I don't think we should), games like this prove he is worth a lot more than the 45m being thrown about.
But I don't want to see the Vidal-Rakitic midfield ever again, its an insult to the club's philosophy. Until Arthur comes back, Alena needs to start, or use Roberto in the middle.
Yes, its not going to be easy to make him leave. He has Valverde on his side and he has a strong desire to stay in barcelona (at least spain). If we cant convince him to leave then I think its all right he stays. Vidal will then leave for sure. And anyway the club shouldnt transfer with inter for the next decade for the backstabbing last summer with Rafinha.
Funny I kinda thought many of you would have watched the game with an objective eye, what was I thinking. Distant, but still solidly 2nd most important player to Messi in helping us win. Pace problem in the midfield as much as a problem with Busi and Vidal as him, and Alena and Couts in the midfield doesn't change that dynamic either. Ya'll continue to hate if it helps you, but after we have won a couple trophies this yeah I wonder if it will cause mixed feelings.
In short: Site has been functioning great and chat add-on (which is also paid) is also holding up. No crashes in recent year.
Having said that, forum itself barely makes anything through adsense. 15USD per month is pathetic and not enough for up-keep.
And if we can cover the server ourselves I would best take ads altogether.
Price of the hosting company went up significantly and I would appreciate donations: It's time to cover the server for the next 6 months.
