7 - Ferran Torres

[Andresito]

Ansu - Torres - Adeyemi.

Would that be feasible for us in the summer?

Extremely talented front three. Acquiring these players in only the first step and the easy one.

Second step is to actually make these players grow into CL competitive players.
We're doing what teams like Dortmund been doing for years, the difference is, if our players turn out good we don't have to sell.

But it surely would be a world first if teenagers/early 20-year olds grew together and became a world class team with everyone in their primes. It looks good on paper, but I honestly can't see it happening.

 

[Andresito]

May ultimately be a moot point but Ferran is cup tied for CL

That rule doesn't exist anymore.

 

[Andresito]

Ferran from a while ago. His injury is a broken metatarsal meaning the root of his little toe. Always a risk buying players that are currently injured.

It might be impossible, but it would be a smart move to loan him with an obligation to buy if some easy conditions were met, like start 10 games or so.

Where is the money coming from? Delayed payments?

Messi, Busquets, Pique & Pedro kind of done it. Although they played in 3 different lines.

They were surrounded by older players in their primes. Xavi, Puyol, Iniesta for example. And had to fight their way through already established players.

We have almost a whole XI with new players. Those who are supposed to be in their primes aren't what we expect of them (ter Stegen, Frenkie).
And the older ones are too old. Which means all the responsibility is put on the teenagers.

 

[te amo barca]

Looks like he's coming. Well, he would improve this team so yeah, get him.

 

[Mateka]

Buyers hat on, 50m possibly in stage payments is a good deal.

Sellers hat on, too cheap.

 

[Birdy]

50 m is too much for a player that City bought with 20-25 m 2 years ago, and his market value DID NOT rise that much since then...

Only way this transfer would work for that amount is if Torres works wonders for us.

I want him here, but not on any amount

 

[iniestaGOAT]

That rule doesn't exist anymore.

It does not even matter we will be out long before Ferran Torres even joins.

But the front line looks good only issue is they will only hit their prime 5-6 years from now, the pressure of winning is immense in barcelona unlike dortmund so they will eventually be reduced to bench players.

50 mil really ain't what it used to be, especially for attacking players. Top teams have bench players for these amounts. Barca have 120 mil(Cou) on the bench and injury reserve(Dem), because we are ballers or used to be.

Gone are the days when you could sign Suarez of the world for 80mil. Of course that was also partly because of his biting issues.

In this market, fifty seems a good price to me. He has some untapped potential and he could take a next step with Barca. It's tough to become starter for City.

I cannot believe we are buying this stinky Spaniard.

Stinky Spaniard who scores hattricks vs Neuer at 21.

Most City fans rate Ferran highly and just read an article on a City fansite opposing his transfer to Barca.

Not that sheiks give a fuck about them.
