I would chalk up the comeback by Sevilla as one of those things...but this defence cannot perform like this for the rest of the season or we will win nothing. Sad that Pedro wants to go because he wants to have more starts but the question is will he get more starts at his "destination" club...

Well, that one more signing I think should've been a "replacement" for Xavi in CM. I think Xavi still has it in him for the duration for the near 2 yr length of the transfer ban. The this transfer window was if anything else was urgent. Beside the CM, I think we should have acquired a young CB...

All in all i think this transfer window was very fruitful. The only real "failure" was not getting a youngish CB. You must praise the board for the level of urgency they have shown this time...they saw like we all saw what players had to be bought and sold and were mostly successful. Most of the...

If the rumor that Lucho wants to try a 3-2-3-2 is true.....and the transfer targets suggest this..... there would be 3 CBs. Cuadrado would be a winger posing as a wingback because he has no real defensive abilities. However at 45m euros i would pass on him and let Dani stay to see if this...

The reality is the market is harsh plus we are looking for a CB that "fits our profile" ie the market is very limited to us and we further limit it with what we are looking for. Then we complain when we go for Mathieu, Agger/Vermaelen. I don't mind the "older" options because we NEED CBs and at...

Wow... we are still trying after Marquinhos. Well you can't fault the board for trying. What the hell......Nasser seeing our desperate CB situation may feel for us and throw in Thiago Silva on the cheap too. Who knows....nothing beats a trial but a humiliating obvious failure.....

I just don't know why it is so hard for Barca to sign a CB. I mean there where names bandied about and we always go head strong for those we can't get. I mean Sakho, Mangala, Filipe Luis etc have all gone to different clubs during the 3 or 4 years we have been looking. We are supposed even...

You see!!!!! A prime example of papers printing half and non truths.....If this board allowed that or did not even go after Hummels with twice that money then this board needs a shakeup

Yip people, dont get carried away by what these tabloids print...their job is to sell papers even if there is only 1% truth in it they will try turn it into the absolute truth. However you will have to ask yourself who are these 2 or 3 defenders that the board want to sign. Who is on their...

Well......DUHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Blind looks a good player but is definitely NOT a CB. Marquinhos is a non starter. Hummels is slowish but is a good defender. Would've prefered Subotic as he looks to "suit" Barca but whatever......

The board has been very pragmatic this window so far....we needed two CBs and a world class FW and we got them....For the board to not sign a CB or 2 would just be plain ridiculous. We still got most of the transfer budget intact...

Basically we have 120m - 46m = 74m left to spend if my math and stated figures are correct. This is commendable and we can go for a "star" CB and an mature CB. It doesn't look like we are replacing Xavi directly if in fact he goes......but we are going after cuadrado!!?!?!?!?. To me CBs before...

I just dont know.... If we have adriano why go after cuadrado?. Adriano is the ultimate utility player for us that is underused and underated. He is two footed and can shoot from the outside. Where would we put Cuadrado? IMHO now that we have Suarez we dont need any more offensive players. All...

I know Balotelli is a "rat bastard" to put it very mildly :lol: :lol: but hasn't been "less volatile" since his move to Milan. I would definitely have not considered him from his Man City days. I think Balotelli would be a good player if he mellows out and decides to grow up. But 95m euros...

To a certain extent i can understand the "hunt" for Suarez......I mean if you want to win the CL you should go after players like Suarez, Falcao, Ibrahimovic etc but 95m euros!!!!! This is so unlike Barca to be splashing this amt of cash especially when we need the 2 CBs. If Atletico Madrid...

I feel your pain bro.. on the CB issue.. Barca is wasting time on prospects that can't\won't come (due to players contract to teams etc) and i think they dont need to "splash" money on "stars". Barca has a history of buying solid players and making them stars (Yaya, Alves, Eto'o) Don't tell me...

Mark my words....PSG aint selling Marquinhos, Nasser ain't selling to US!!!!! We could as well waste time on better prospects but then again it is Barca. I have a strange feeling Mascherano will continue as a CB

Our front line can't be fine and we struggled to score in the important games last season. Tata was able to get something from the other forwards the early part of last season but they faded. Against the stronger teams in Europe we are impotent. Who are our go to guys when it comes to scoring...

This is sounding like the Thiago Silva saga last summer. We are deal with an owner (Nasser) who is yanking our chain. I am not holding out any hope on this deal happening and all the signs smell of a bad deal........the price, the age of the player, only transferred to PSG last year, the owner...
