Anyway there are 100 things apart from this that takes away the mes que en club tag away from us.

Indeed there are. Like Barto and co being a bunch of crooks. Simply buying players has nothing to do with it. Otherwise we were never "more than a club" to begin with because we've always been heavy spenders.

I'd rather be a club that wins than be more than a club. But maybe that's just me. Sign anyone we need for whatever is asked of us. Real Madrid doesn't cry about big spending because it brings them results and we should be the same.

You just cant justify buying player who is not world class yet for 145m, yes, psg did bought neymar for 220, but let compare what they got and what will barca have, psg in neymar has player who is top 3 in the world, probably best marketing player by far out there, dembele? 20 year old potential who can become world class or maybe finish like robinho

Actually, PSG will pay far more than 220m because they have to pay taxes on the transfer fee.

We bought Ney for 100m+ when he was plying his trade in the Brazilian league. No variables. Dembele seems to be around 110m fixed. How many wingers are better than Dembele right now in your opinion?

It will be interesting to see if BVB will get milked next January and summer like we were, with everyone knowing they are loaded.

If they do their homework well, they will not be remotely as bad as us.

RM have sold for far more than they have spent this summer. When was the last time we ever did that? We've spent like crazy on garbage while getting hardly any money incoming from sales. 120m on Paulinho, Gomes and Arda or 110+30m on Dembele?

Buyout HAS to be 500M or higher. Don't fuck up these small details that can later end up being a big problem again, please.

Dembele and Semedo are quality young players. More like that and Umtiti please. Dembele deal ain't outstanding in any way, but at least the player is talented and has best in the world potential.
 
Not to sound too pessimistic and judgemental but Dembele did cause as much trouble to his parent club (to come to Barca) as did Neymar Jr. to his........ only difference being Neymar Jr. (and Sneyke Sr.) did it to the club that made him the player that he is whereas Dembele has only been there for one year!

LOL.

Were we heavy spenders always? Yes. Were we stupid heavy spenders always? no. We have paid a shitload of amount for arda,paco,gomes and paulinhio and apart from paco to a small extent all are deadwood. Those players could have been substituted easily by la masia. No one criticizes us buying suarez and neymar for that amount but the amount of deadwood we have and the amount we have spent on it is astoninshing to say the least and the board deserves all criticism for it.

Its not the amount we spent, its the quality we got by spending that.

Fair enough. I agree with this. We're wasting way too much on trash players.

IMO, Dembele is a good buy. Overpriced because of the situation, but a good buy.
