20 - Dani Olmo

[Raketa10]

It looks like we'll go for him in January. Don't know what to think about this move. He is way too expensive.

 

[Andresito]

He feels like such a meh player. We need a gamechanger in attack. He's not it, at least not at the highest level.

This. Awful move.

It's like signing another Griezmann

 

[Porque]

Where would he play?

Our gap/opportunity is the right side where Demir/Dembele will be.

I don't think it makes the most out of placing Olmo there.

Falso nueve returns. Orders from above

 

[MTL_Barca]

Seems like the completely wrong player in our current situation. Yet another "not striker not CM" kinda winger/midfielder, not enough impact on anything and most likely way too expensive considering the tight budget and number of glaring holes in the squad.

 

[BBZ8800]

Laporta really has some political agenda with signing all this shitty Catalan players.

What is his stance about independence, is he a right-wing guy?

These are not footballing transfers, these are some weird political-statement moves.
The same is with Lucho.

More than a club = political club.

I hope it's not true, it's just simply very lazy recruitment and scouting.

He is not an attacker to begin with. If we intend to play him on the wing we are fucking idiots.

This. Awful move.

It's like signing another Griezmann

IMHO it's more like another Coutinho. To weak for a midfielder and to slow for a winger.

 

[vegitot]

Former Masia player. Fit Laporta plan.

Wait till you see him lose the ball 50 times in a single game

 

[vuji_31]

Again.

Another player that we already see that he is not worth.

Some things never change

Fair enough if available for cheap or a clause but in this instance doesnt seem to be the case.

Spending the rumoured 75m on Olmo when have no money is madness.

Be better off selling FDJ or Pedri and using that fee + the 75m to improve whole squad as much as possible.

 

[vegitot]

Club won't sell Pedri or De Jong soon. Not until go bankrupt completely like Inter.

They most likely wont but if can improve the team it should be done.

Cant see why likes of FDJ would want to stay anyway at a club that wont be able to compete for years.

There is next to no one else would get a big fee for.

For Pedri it would be a shame but then if Gavi/Demir show a good level this season and can be the next in line then could make sense to take big fee for him.

 

[mc_lovin]

Both Frenkie and Pedri seem to identify with the club. I don't think they would want to leave and neither could we improve the team by selling them.
