Ronaldo and Falcao up front with Mata/Rooney and Di Maria behind them? Not sure how it'd work in practice (especially the Ronaldo and Falcao part), but it sure is scary as hell on paper. I really hope Man U make the CL. They'll have no chance of getting Ronaldo otherwise...

Easier said than done. Di Maria's a very unique player.

He's not anywhere near the player he used to be, but he isn't completely useless. He still has useful qualities, like his defensive workrate which we could use (for example) to close out games. I'm fine with him on the bench. Again, it's not like anyone's gonna give us a good amount of money for...

You forgot the part about us not buying a desperately needed CB in those 3-5 years. And Jamdav still defending him to the death.

This circus is better than the one from Mou's last season :lol:

Nice gesture.

:rofl1: :rofl1:

:lol:

Meh, he's no Tom Cleverley.

I did and I agreed with it. Anyway, I agree that for now we're fine with Pedro on the bench. Lucho seems to rate Munir and picks players based on form, so I don't think Pedro will get in the way of Munir's development, or undeservingly take minutes from Munir.

Agree. Tbh, I think us, Chelsea and Bayern are the only ones with a genuine shot of winning the CL. Though I know it's too early to make judgments like that...

Yeah, someone should tell him that. :lol: It's Suarez, so he'd probably still get banned for a couple of matches (unless he manages to make it look unintentional), but I doubt it'd be anywhere near as bad as the bans he got for biting. I remember him punching someone in the face in an...

I won't be surprised if Douglas never starts a single game for us :lol:

Tough away game against Levante after this. We're probably gonna see some rotation. Mats Montoya-Bartra-Mathieu-Alba Busquets Rakitic-Xavi Munir-Messi-Neymar

Guess he's still too selfish and doesn't track back enough. I think he'll end up having a decent career, but his future at Barca looks dim atm. As DonAndres said, he's struggling to get minutes in lesser teams while Munir gets 3 starts in a row for Barca (and manages to impress to boot).

Bookies still have them as favorites to win the CL :lol:

Not to mention one that just spent 160m in the transfer window.

Is it just me, or were his biggest doubters here the ones who should know him best (Sevilla fans, Croatians, etc)? :lol:

We do, but we're transfer banned. If the ban doesn't get lifted, we need to extend Alves' contract for another year. Unless Montoya recaptures that form he had a couple of years ago. Current Alves isn't the solution, but neither is current Montoya. We should have bought a way better RB than...

+1 Don't forget Alves's 20 crosses to the moon every game. He isn't anywhere close to what he used to be. But really, we don't have any better alternatives.
