Aguero retiring already helped us to register Dani Alves

The "wage impact" for a possible transfer is a benefit for the club, not him. He was always able to reduce his wages to whatever he wanted if he wanted to play elsewhere. The only benefit for him is that he is now guaranteed to have a club till 2026, while possibly after 2023 he feared no one...

It seems to me as well after his last injury he seems to have lost some pace. Like he is still quick, but not insanely quick like before (like when he scored that wonder goal against Spurs).

Can't play as a CF, it should be obvious by now.

For every shot he sends to the stands, Barca should lower the offer by 1m.

What I don't understand is how Barcelona are letting him have the upper hand on the negotiation when he hasn't shown anything on the pitch or has been injured. He should be begging for Barcelona to renew him.

Let him go, what's the point keeping him when even a youngster like Abde is so much better.

I wouldn't sell him, I've seen him at his peak even at Barca and he is extremely talented. His season so far has been really bad, its either mental or he is carrying some injury. I have faith in Xavi that he can recover the best of him.

Doesn't have the level for the first team, must be sold. The game ended the moment he was subbed on, never had a chance against Coman.

He is no longer world class, and we should look at the market, but nowhere near a priority to replace (tells you how badly we are lacking in other areas).

I still think he was a good signing for free to compliment Messi and Griezmann. The problem is we expect him to lead the attack and he is not talented enough, can't really blame him.

Just compare him with Sane or Coman today (similar style players)... he is miles away from these players, and look how much Bayern paid for them. Disaster signing and I think Barca should just let him go and not beg him to stay, he doesn't deserver it.

Of course, and we shouldn't be holding any attacker to his ridiculous dribbling standards, that's my point. It's ok for Dembele to lose the ball several times if other times he creates goal scoring chances. At least he goes for it and the opposition fear him.

Some of you have been spoilt by Messi, who had a dribbling success way way over the average. Dribblers like Dembele will occasionally lose the ball and that should be ok because at least he tries and is fearless, we desperately need players that try to beat their marker and he is our best hope.

Immense talent, poor football brain. Holds on the ball so much its frustrating to watch.

10m loan plus 40m mandatory purchase next season. He ain't coming back.

Because financially its a great move, and on the pitch we hardly lose anything. He was on 35m a year with 4 years of contract remaining? Madness.

True, but this was supposed to be HIS season we he showed everyone he was being held back by Messi... and ended up being worse.

Great business for all parties involved. I am pretty sure Koeman was about to bench him anyways in favour of Coutinho, Griezmann was abysmal in his first few games.

Its good he is coming for free or we would be asking for a discount after that miss!
