Wrong.
Arthur had a great offer financially, same for the club (from their perspective).
To tell a player to go and get pay raise elsewhere isn't that ruthless.
Unlike telling a player to take pay cut.
Not remotely comparable situation.

It is not about telling Suarez to go and take a pay cut.
The contract he is offered by Juve under their tax laws is not far off what he is earning after tax at Barca and if that was the issue he would be asking for the difference only.
Also that contract is supposedly for a further two years than he has at Barca.
Suarez is at an advantage with going to Juve from financial side.

We have no idea what is the situation with Juve.
One day they are waiting for his Italian exam, next day they have agreed deal with Giroud.
I am not going to jump on conclusion until the issue folds. But as it stands right now Suarez and Arthur situation is not close to being comparable.

He is asking for another Salary Cut with Messi today. He wants the whole Squad to take a Salary Cut again

People hate Bartomeu but makes total sense. After 8-2 nobody deserves to get paid what they are.
Don't think most players are realistic enough to accept that fact though so I expect they'll reject his approach.
He gets us in this mess and then asks the players to bail him out.
Regardless of the 8-2 performance or not, it's their salary. That's like me having a bad day at work and the boss asking me to reduce my salary because he wants to save a bit of cash. There's no way the players will go for it.
He got us in this mess, he now has to figure a realistic way to get out of it.

It's because of the pandemic, you plonker.
In many industries and sectors this has happened
Yeah, blame COVID. We were in massive debt regardless of COVID. You don't see other big clubs asking players to reduce their salaries because of COVID. Those other big clubs are being run well.
Besides, we shouldn't be in this mess in the first place. He's stacked up the debt with stupid signings and giving players huge salaries. Bartomeu is now using the excuse of COVID so he can free up some of the debt. He's trying to find a way out of the debt he caused. The players should tell him to fuck off.

Fuck this, let that corrupt board rot n pay outta pocket. Had Ratface not reneged on his word, Barca would now have 100 mil (freed from Leo's salary) + 65 mil extra (freed from the 5th year loyalty bonus).
Barto can use some of that under the table money he got from Tebas to keep Leo in La Liga.
Zany scenario: schoolboys get mugged, Bart treats Inter to their 6 digits mega-Lautaro lottery windfall. And ahem? receives in turn a few mille grazie mils into his Grand Cayman accounts. Cuck Kun Do 101

agreed, anything to save his bacon now. he and this corrupt board will have to pay out of pocket. the only way he can make that much money in a short time to cover is if they sell the stadium rights. which i hope is stopped by the no confidence vote.
