I'm not suggesting for one minute Iniesta be moved purely to accomadate Cesc. I have doubts about Cesc and not sure he will ever become a true Barca player. However the truth is that the only player who can come close to being a like for like swap with Xavi is Iniesta. If we want to keep that...

Cesc hasn't failed or succeded. He's been pretty much right down the middle. The next season or two will define his Barca career. I don't think he's Xavi's heir. To be honest there is only one player in the world who could come close to being a direct replacement for Xavi of the last few years...

I know he's a beast, but how is he technically? Would he fit in at Barca?

Surely the idea has to be to buy the likes of a Balanta who could be World Class or could end up average adn an established defender too. There are very few world class defenders and I don't think we can get one this year. So an established quality defender and a top prospect would surely be the...

Barca will never truly compete with Masch playing centre half. I really hope Bartra would start to take his spot but it doesn't look likely and with the window shut, I can only see the end ofthe season going badly as long this nonsense of playing Masch there continues.

Lewandowski has every skill required to play the Villa role, as well as the obvious CF position. He's not some lumbering Dzeko or Crouch type.

I think he could play cutting in from the wing and Messi did play for spells against Milan and Madrid at RW (as much as Messi plays in any notional position) I would be delighted if it was true but cant see it. Balanta, ter Stegen and Lewa and then we can close the thread.

If we continue to play him in big games he will eventually cost us. He is not good enough against the big teams. Batra must be raging.

Lewandowski is going to Bayern and whilst he will be getting lots of money they are also the side he followed as a child. If he wanted only money then he'd be going to Man City or Chelsea. He would be a great signing for any team and Bayern will be even more dangerous with him.

The Falcao rumour is purely down to speculation. Monaco are potentially going to be given some kind of punishment as it is being argued they are gaining an unfair advantage due to tax laws. If that happens it has been suggested they will get rid of Falcao to bring some degree of financial...

He can't succumb to somebody else's injury.

Neither example is truly applicable. Courtois has had over 3 seasons as a first team keeper and 2 of those have been in La Liga. He has had more than one season at a high level. As I've stated both Silva and Marquinhos have there plus points and both would be good signings. However both are...

I'm sorry but that simply isn't true. I highlighted the key mental attributes that we are missing in our defence and even if you choose to ignore that fact that leadership and organisation are amongst the key attributes of a world class centreback, and even you decide Marquinhos' technical...

A lot of what you say is correct, especially about Silva not waving a magic wand (not that I ever claimed he would) and that our attacking tactics leave us open to counters more than any other team. However to say that both players' output would be the same is just nonsense. Firstly the key to...

People who equate buying Marquinhos and Silva as having the same effect simply don't understand defending. There are a hundered Marquinhos' out there. Having potential and the skill set to be a truly great defender doesn't mean you are. Experience is generally a huge asset to have but more...

He has played CB in the past. As much as I don't like the covert the midfielder tactic he's probably the DM I think would best cope. He's a leader too. Maybe just try it on FM

Minor problem with Luiz being he will never, ever be a centre half. He simply doesn't have the mid-set or game intelligence to play there. He's a complete liability at the back and would be an expensive step backwards.

I suppose the reason that people are "trolling" you is that you are merely posting rumours that anybody with google and a PC could quite easily attain and then using the phrase "my sources." No doubt if any of these rumours turn out to be true you will proclailm your predictions ignoring all the...

So how good is Dede?

Luiz will never be a true centre half. He doesn't have it in him. Would be majorly worried by his signing.
