Lucho is as stubborn as a mule in some cases. I'm sure Bravo will still be La Liga goalkeeper and MAtS UCL and CDR goalkeeper. Just switch the roles cause Marc is young and needs getting more experience. If Bravo won't accept new role, go ahead. Sell him to City.

He's with his agent having a meeting with the club. Looks like Bravo requested a meeting too.

About to get interesting now.

This was always going to happen. Two WC GKs at one club never been sustainable long-term, yet I still hope they find a solution that sees both stay one more season.

This all went sour when Lucho decided to give the CWC to Bravo in December. Really messed up there IMO.

Bravo should play liga and Mats CL and CDR. If Mats has a problem he can leave. We can buy Courtois next summer..

Sure, force exit a keeper that can give us 10 years, already adapted to our style and requirements, to keep a 30+ goalie, with max 3 years on the tab, so we can splash money on another keeper, that can give us 10 years. Because, logic...

I like Bravo, he's been rock solid for us, but he is not and should not be a priority. If he wants to be the main man, he should leave, it's better for both parties, rather than stir things up.

And the information battle between MD & Sport continues, they both seem to report conflicting information - not just on the situation with Mats

So both keepers are suiting up against each other and Lucho?

Either one of them gets sold or both get sold and we start all our games with Masip and Jose Suarez, cuz Lucho don't play that shit.

Courtois? Really? Sure glad you don't have Roberto Fernández' position. Ter Stegen is a much better fit than Courtois. And we already have him. He is under contract. Let's see what happens with the playing time this season. Not to mention, no guarantee we could even get Courtois. Horrible solution you have there.

Bravo is top 3 keepers in the world. Him being our GK gives me more assurance of winning La Liga than Mats. I like Mats a lot and he will eventually end up being the number one choice but he needs to keep calm and wait for his chance because one day its sure to happen. If he isn't ready to wait he can leave. No player is bigger than the club and the club should do what is best for the club...It isn't like Mats is irreplaceable. Courtois few months ago gave an interview in which he stated that he doesn't see himself finishing his career at Chelsea. If a club of our strature comes calling for him he would surely leave.

So your solution is to sell ter Stegen then buy Courtois at which point Bravo will be unhappy because there is no way he would leave Chelsea to be a cup goalkeeper or to start only league games. In which case you will have to sell Bravo anyway so why go through a roundabout method to reach the same conclusion. That is without considering the cost of buying a player with a long-term contract from chelsea or his suitability to our style. If chelsea sold Luiz for so much money what do you think it will cost to get Courtois?

40m or so probably. They won't sell for any less than De Gea was supposedly going for. And that guy had a year left on his contract lol

Curtosis is a terrible fit for Barça. Really don't understand why anyone would want him here.
