...and we couldn't afford that because we spent those 40M on Paulinho.

wait, why wouldn't barca have enough money to pay 160 millions? another possibility is that they just didn't think he was worth that much. With dembele, at least you know he's young and has potential to be even better. Coutinho? idk I haven't seen much from him. All i know is that players like Fabregas dominate English football and then they become shit in Barca's system.

I wish I could watch all the leagues in the world, but I honestly barely have time to watch Barca's games these days. I do watch random games here and there, but I haven't been following Liverpool as much. I do remember Coutinho from his time at Espanyol, and he seemed like a good prospect.

"The management had a terrible failure and lied to the fans, Barca is now lost because of the directives encouraging the fans with false promises through the press, Everything we reported is from them, We didn't come up with anything by ourselves, Their are known journalists that reported the same news, And in the end it's a real failure of the management.
I'll keep working the same way, I'll never change, Yes sometimes the sources are truthful, And sometimes they're not, But they're sources from barca's management.
To be frank, I don't care what will be said, I'll just say to you to look for the one responsible inside the club, I didn't come up with anything just from my head, But from sources inside barca, Who failed, And what a failure that was.
I just like to remind some that i could've used generic words that doesn't confirm or deny anything, But i like to do my job and get close to the decision makers, Which if they choose to lie, That's their concern, But i challenge anyone at FC barcelona to accuse me of making up news without it coming directly from them.
Now let them carry their true failure, And those who want to vent themselves through me then i don't have a problem, But be certain that i report what they tell me, Weather they are lies or truths."
In summary, He's very pissed and accusing people inside our management of feeding him with lies.

im away from my pc and i can t stress myself typing a lot with this small ass phone.
in short the guy says :
" the board failed big time and lied to the fans. Barca is lost because of a board prone to lying in order to excite the fans, using the media. we have reported many things through the media, and so did some well established journalists. at the end of the day, this is a failure of the board.
i will continue to do my work the same way, yes, sometimes reports are going to be accurate, other times not, but the source of the reports come from whithin the club.
i dont care what you will say about me, go look for the real culprit, i dont have the 220 millions and i never made things up, it all came from the club.
i coukd have used the wood language but im passionate about my job, and i challenge any stuff member from the club to accuse me of mading things up whitout consulting them.
now it s up to them to step forward and assume their failure.i cant be a scapegoat.

160 million straight up is ridiculous money for any player, too much for Coutinho. Besides Coutinho isn't the central midfielder like a lot of people say we need. He's more an attacking midfielder/playmaker.
The issue is not missing out on Coutinho but insisting buying this player when he wasn't available for a realistic fee and then failing to properly look at alternatives.
