He won't be kicked out, but he can be gently nudged to leave. Right now we seem to have quite serious salary situation and getting rid of players like Song and Adriano won't solve it. Alves is another candidate for exit despite new contract (if Roberto and Vidal prove they can play well as RBs).

He was one of the players being bullied. He needs to start bulking up, because Granada players proved he can be dispossessed quite easily after a little bump.

It depends on Iniesta health and our salary situation. If Iniesta won't be able to play enough matches to justify his wages he might be replaced by Turan and Suarez could become a backup. If we buy AM like Pogba Suarez is screwed though.

He is too tall and clumsy. Won't make it against parked buses in Primera.

Remember, Roberto was every bit as bad just 1 year ago.

I don't think CB is that big priority. Our current struggles have more to do with poor form and lack of motivation, than lack of quality. Backup forward in winter, backup LB in winter or summer and world class starting CM in summer would be enough for us.

Turan will play on Iniesta's position as LCM.

Or he is simply old. I think he might be sold next season, or even given away for free. His salary is quite high and if Vidal&Roberto perform well, there would be no need for 3 RBs. I also agree he should be tried as CM.

He would be good as winger, he just needs technical player like Messi/Rafinha/Halilovic etc next to him. He doesn't play very well with another no 9 like Suarez. We actually got one more winger in Rafinha, but he's now injured too. Still I believe if we sold Pedro sooner, we might have kept...

Bench him for one game. Use Verm-Masch duo. They were good when they played together.

LOL, when are you people going to realize, that Vidal won't play winger for us? We don't use wingers and his best position is RW anyway. Do you really think he'll get significant minutes with Messi healthy after winter?

I wanted Brca to sign Yarmolenko just month ago, but now I'm not so sure. He seems to have problems when he has lack of space and the ability to perform well in tight space is absulute necessity for Barca players, IMO...

Our wages are pretty high, on the other hand we had profit 20M last year, so our finances are quite healthy overall... I believe most of that 100M growth is due to one time treble bonuses, few of our players got rises high enough to account for 100M increase. Remember we also lost Xavi and...

Messi no, Suarez might be. Villa declined massively with age. Also while slightly worse Suarez would still be good player, slightly worse Nolito after 30 would be average at best.

He is not left attacking midfielder. Look at his highlights. He operates on right or center almost never on left. In our system he'd likely be just a backup for Messi for this reason. They occupy the same space on pitch. No wo don't have 5 players. Roberto sucks as CM, let's strike him out...

Why shouldn't he? Its obvious coach doesn't trust him at all, despite huge holes in midfield. If he can't make it now, he knows he has probably no chance. Should he waste his career in Barca B team?

No, it was because of his shitty play, when he was destroyed by every agile attacker one on one.

That's because the deal was already done last summer... :)

How good is Jetro Willems? All I know about him is from Football Manager:lol:, where he was decent. I believe he wouldn't be bad backup for Alba? Young and coming from PSV he should be relatively cheap.

CBs can still play on high level after 30. Very few forwards can do the same. 18M fee is not much, but if Celta doesn't want to sell him we would have to pay taxes too. So it's really more like 25M.
