    Almost never. But that does not mean we can't have a pair now. My point for that is this. Laporta is working hard to bring in B.Silva. With him and Pedri/Torre we will have enough attacking midfielders who can bring the ball from our backline to the front 3. That is what they do, right? OK. We...

    Frenkie de Jong

    I believe with "Turtle" he is referring to Busquets. But FDJ does not possess much better defensive skills. To me our best option as an DM at the moment is Frank Kessie. You are absolutely right about Xavi's attitude. Busy and Alba will start for him every game, till they can walk. Sorry mate...

    23 - Jules Kounde

    Yes. That is exactly what we need. I strongly doubt Xavi will adopt 3 - 5 - 2 or 3 - 4 - 3 formations. He is an old school guy who does believe ONLY in a possessional football. As an RB option right now, we have Dest and S.Roberto and none of them is a defensive force. Absolutely the same is the...

    Frenkie de Jong

    We cannot register our new players, more less to add another one. We have to sell Frankie and Memphis in order to do that. That said, if somehow, we can get rid of both Dutch man and sign B.Silva we will have one of the best midfield trios in Europe in B.Silva, Pedri and F.Kessie as a defensive...

    Frenkie de Jong

    There is also information that Barcelona owes Frankie around 20 mil. euro from past two seasons. Neither United nor Chelsea wants to pay that amount as well as his transfer fee. The situation is getting very complicated because if we cannot cut his salary from our payroll books, we will not be...

    Dest is the Best. LOL. God help Barcelona.

    Chelsea and United are willing to pay that money but they refuse to pay an extra 20 million that Barca owes him because of a pay-cuts during the Covid. That amount is the actual reason Frankie may end up in Barcelona.

    23 - Jules Kounde

    Exactly. In that regard, Azpilicueta would be a perfect choice as he can play equally well as a right back and center back. The problem is his age (32) and for that reason I think we should look somewhere else to fill that spot. There is a whole lot of traditional full backs in South America for...

    Martin Braithwaite

    Brilliant analysis. It's 100% true. I agree with everything you have said. The undeserved high salaries of Barcelona players come from Bartomeu's reign and now is almost impossible to get rid of them. Barca will ask Martin to agree to reduce his salary by 40 - 45 %. He of course will refuse...

    Martin Braithwaite

    That is true. We would never get his full salary of the books. But the bigger problem is that he is refusing to be traded or loaned to any other European club, even though such a move will guarantee him 100% of his wages. Portion from Barcelona and portion from the new team. He prefers to stay...

    Samuel Umtiti

    How do you know that Rennes medical was fake news?

    That was for sure technical issue from the site because when I sent my message to you, on the top, instead of your profile name it was showing mine. Anyhow. I am sure the Admin took care of this already. To answer your question. As I have already said this Barcelona squad has couple of very...

    Samuel Umtiti

    Yes. I was wondering about this same as you. If Unmtiti could not pass the medical at Rennes, that means he is not fit to train with Barcelona too, right? I am not aware of Lal Liga rules about this kind of situations but there should be a clause permitting clubs to terminate contracts in a...

    Martin Braithwaite

    That is a good point. There is no mutual agreement on the termination. Yes, it is better to keep both Braithwaite and Depay on the bench instead of paying off their full salaries at once. There is also information that Saudi club owner has proposed multi-million contract to Martin. Let's hope it...

    Miralem Pjanic

    That was a World Class question. LOL.

    23 - Jules Kounde

    I just watched several videos of Tariq. Young, fast, pushy and with descent technique. But it's right away obvious his tendency to play solo, even in hopeless situations. Now we have the revived Dembele and Raphinha on the right flank and surely, we don't need his relentless attacks on the wing...
