14 - Javier Mascherano

[JamDav1982]

MSN salaries will cost us around 100 mill a year and factor in Iniesta, Busi and Pique. That's why Dani and Masche are allowed to leave if they want.

Nah you are putting two and two together and coming up with five.

The rumours are those players are choosing to leave for different reasons and not club trying to free up wages which they dont need to do anyway.

I am putting it together, doesn't it make sense for guys like Dani and Masche to get out of the way for their buddies Leo and Ney to make more cash. They sacrificed themselves. There is no other reason to leave other than they don't want Barca to sell one of the MSN.

Alves maybe yes, but not Masche.

btw do you think another worldclass defender would play for us for less???

That doesnt make sense and they are not sacrificing themselves to allow the club to save money.

If Alves wants the Juve move it makes sense in some ways for him to get at a three year contract at a CL club almost guaranteed to win the league.

Masche has always spoke of not finishing career at Barca, how he sees himself as a midfielder first and has been linked to Italy in the past.

Not saying these rumours are true or those are the definite reasons but it is far more likely than Alves and Masch giving up their contracts for MSN or anyone else.

The club doesnt need them to do that.

Whoaaaa easy there, tiger! This escalated quickly. If anything, they'd go elsewhere for their own increase in wages, not their former teammates'.

Need an escalated quickly GIF. I'm trying to keep my hatred for this board under the covers but I cannot accept losing two starters like this.

When talking about our wages you have to keep in mind we had to pay more than 50M in bonuses for winning the treble last season. Had we not won anything we could afford getting someone like Nolito.

won't mind high bonuses if they win trophies but salaries should be average market line i.e what other big clubs pay. In any industry salaries are similar, maybe a bit high in a company and a bit low in another but not much difference. Bonuses is another matter and the management should structure most of the benefits when players win trophies.

 

[Marchisio8]

Not sure I understood you. You mean that you think that Mascherano would not be a starter at Juve?

If we were to field a 3 man midfield, he would be a starter, but not with a classic 4 man line.

Does anyone remember a quote that he has made about Barcelona in the past? something like "Barcelona wins titles based on their history" or something like that?

Hopefully we let him leave on free too. Masch really earned it!
