Why is his salary 6M in the first place. It's still mind blowing how Barto didn't care about money at all.
18M fee and 6M/year, that makes Dembele look like a bargain deal :lol:
Dembele as a 130M signing already failed miserably both due to injuries and him simply not performing good enough to warrant the price tag.
But as a wise man once said it is what it is, club either had to let him leave for free or renew him. I still rather have Dembele than play Ferran as RW...
Not every single player has to be amazing at the ball. Puyol and Abidal weren't on a level with Alves/Pique too. Sometimes solid is enough, at least for a defender.
Xavi was one of the best players in this games history, he should work on improving positioning and passing - if anyone knows how...
Players have every right to sit our their contract, if they value money higher than the sport.
But understandably fans won't be happy with that, so of course they get called all kind of stuff online. These guys already have more money than anyone would ever need, not like we need to feel bad...
Added a lot of new players already and are still looking to get more, naturally it will take it's time for it to click.
We'll see in a few months if the team can challenge for titles, considering how much we spent Xavi better should be able to compete with his new squad.
We can't unregister them and only have 25 1st team spots, as of now we have like 28 players and are still looking to sign Azpi and maybe a LB too.
Also coaches should be able to focus on our actual players in training instead of bums that just sit in the stands all year.
Better to just get...
Braithwaite is just a bum. Not just meh or not quite good enough for Barca but a truly bang average player. Leganes was his level and that's it.
Add him being 31 and his Barto contract and nobody should even be slightly suprised we can't sell the guy.
One of the worst transfers of all time to...
Dembele convincing BBZ would be the biggest comeback in football history. :D
Really looks better now, maybe this whole saga and him having to fight for a new contract (Barca or elsewhere) was good for him. He was used to everything always just working out for a long time at pro level, play a...
Of course Laporta says that, fans still love Leo. If it's a real option for him and the club is an entirely different story.
Messi will be 36 next summer and we'll still have a lot of attackers. Maybe he joins for a sort of farewell season, but that would require him to be fine with accepting a...
They're about to sign Azpilicueta and we have plenty of CB options for next season and Araujo already played some games there last season, so imo that points to Xavi at least not minding it too much to play a defensive RB.
If he insisted on an attacking RB we would've probably signed one, don't...
Hopefully more departures will follow soon after the US tour.
Mingueza was probably the easiest to sell. Depay, Braithwaite, Collado, Puig, Pjanic, Umtiti, Neto...a lot of work left to do for Don Alemany.
Benching 60 year old Alves isn't exactly impressive.
Don't think Xavi will rely on Dest, would probably start Araujo ahead of him in an important game.
Would be great to have a good young starting RB but i just don't see Dest making it here.
Depending on what % we get it might not end up being that bad of a deal. Unless he flops there but well then we sold a bum for a bum price, not the end of the world.
