2 - Joao Cancelo

FCBarça said:
He rejected Inter in January when there was a loan deal even reported to be done, as he was waiting on Barça - same would happen in a transfer. It's clear what the player's desire has always been. Player also has leverage since he was deemed surplus to needs by Inzaghi and were going to even let him go for free prior to the loan

They will negotiate but final number will end up between 4-8M in all likelihood, a bargain in any case

Exactly, and it's really a no brainer to sign him up for at least a 2 year contract. I've been a Cule for 30 years, die hard one - but Cancelo is on another level, he just loves Barca so much that I think it's criminal not to sign him.

How do you know this? I just thought he just liked Barca because he had a better time here.
Didnt know he was a die hard cule.
 
Problem with Cancelo is that he isn't reliable in the biggest games. He rarely influences those.
For most part he is great but we need a more reliable starter in CL knockouts.

All of this always needs to be compared to several factors

1) What are our options in the current squad?
2) Who is available on the market?
3) Of those available, who can offer something better in terms of quality and longevity and still be attainable realistically?

Sure, Cancelo is no Alves or Roberto Carlos, but he is excellent compared to who we have and the alternatives, especially for the rumored price(s).
 
Cancelo is currently better in Attack than Balde, Kounde, Eric and Martin.
Cancelo is currently better at defence than Balde & Kounde.

Spend 15m on Cancelo & Grimaldo, and we have instantly upgraded our attack 2 folds, while on a budget.

Its actually a no brainer, and if Deco deosnt go for it this summer again, pitchforks should be coming out.

I won't mind Cancelo but I meant we should also be on the look for another LB. Rumours are that we won't be able to spend much money next summer so at the very least a younger prospect would be nice since Balde decided not to learn anything new. Or we go for Grimaldo when he is free but he is not the long term solution either.
 
@Messi983 i see you love to make laugh smileys on my cancelo posts but you cant ignore the fact he has been much much better than Balde and Kounde last season :fdj:
