First there was Boateng. Then Braithwaite. Then... LUUK DE JONGGGG

So we loaned out Manaj thinking this guy would come and he didn't come? What a shambles.

The deal was never close to happening. It required Saul's deal to be closed with Chelsea which was in no way fully closed, and besides, even if it was closed, complex payroll/auditing means these things can take days. It sounds to me Barca's board put some smoke out there.

In terms of last minute transfer deals, especially when they rely on wages being removed from the payroll, transfer fees being collected etc... the auditing, LaLiga doing financial checks, and with the 1:4 rule like we have... paperwork for these deals takes days. Not half an hour. Makes me feel...

Utterly shambolic. Shambolic

I think it is more the sheer incompetence and maze we've been going around the whole summer as it pertains to transfers, Laporta literally has no idea what he's doing.

Griezmann and Luuk De Jong are off according to RAC1 Laporta is just Barto with a new face. Most unprofessional club in the world, I've seen amateur clubs run better than this

WOW. If Saul doesn't go to Chelsea, Griezmann stays at Barca... Holy fuck this board is FULL of clowns

31 minutes and the deal is not yet complete. If we don't manage to get him in we are literally left with no forwards, ironically

Luuk De Jong Record in the eredivisie = 174 goals in 343 appearances LDJ's record outside of the Eredivisie = 151 appearances and 27 goals. And these moves were when he was under30. Tells a tale

He didn't give him 1 minute in the first 3 league games, despite his great preseason, you'd think if Laporta and co are being so economically minded they might look to a young cheap player already in the B team then sign an old washed Dutch coming here for a check? Backup 9 may I add? Screams...

In our last two games we were lucky to escape with 4 points and those were against Bilbao and Getafe. With a bit of bad luck and bad form we could come 5th after the losses today.

Right now with how bad this squad is we will be lucky to make CL and I mean that. Depay and De Jong are our saving graces, they will need to carry us Haaland won't be interested in coming if we perform very badly this year

We had Manaj in the B on dirt wages and 6 years younger so if we are looking for a warm body I see no reason we had to make an extra signing of 31 year old

We are going into our CL group stage with Braithwaite Depay and Luuk De Jong as our frontline. The news for today was that if a forward left Koeman would demand another, now he's lost Griezmann. He will be very angry and as much as I dislike him I don't blame him. His squad got stripped in the...

... We gave him back to Atletico, our direct league rival, at a loss of 80m, but not just that, they don't have to buy him?? So if he plays bad his wages come back our way?? Laparto!!

We are so short in attack for the games coming up. Fati will not return at his best till October at least, Demebele still recovering, Aguero out till Oct/Nov, Griezmann gone, Manaj gone, Collado gone, I mean, our game vs Bayern is only in 2 weeks... Do we bet on Demir?

If we are gonna sign him we best offload Pjanic to them and at least get something out of another retiree on our payroll.

He is not doing a good job at 'recouping the money' all he has sold is young players and hasn't shifted a single deadwood, in fact we are trying to sign LDJ who will be another problem child we need to shift next year if the news about transfer is believed.

Agreed. Lied on Messi renewal, lied on finances, lied on squad improvements, lied on the sale of players, lied about not signing old players, and average players, Victor Font for how much he is disliked did say it first. Laporta has no plan And to top it off the club's conducted itself in the...
