André Gomes

[BarçaBarça]

Thing is if we sold Gomes now then Robert would look stupid and that's the only reason we are not selling imo.

Robert playing 4D chess and getting double price for him

If Valverde doesn't make Gomes the next Xavi he's really fucked up here. If we can't afford Verratti because we're 10-30m short and Gomes has another Barca B level season he'll be crucified.

Not even Cruyff and Pep mixed in 1 person would make Gomes a suitable player for Barça. It´s ludicrous this board and cancer Robert. I´m out for this couple of months. Screw them. Messi should leave for them to learn.

Let him have a second year under the new manager. Many players including modric and kovacic struggled in their first seasons at the big Spanish clubs. I distinctly remember modric was declared one of the biggest flops in Madrid history after this first season and look what happened.

A premier league team will still buy him for 20-30 million next summer if he doesn't work out

Problem is that he is performing bad with his national team as well

Clearly you don't "Distinctly remember" a damn thing, because that vote was held in November and that vote was held for biggest flop of the season, and even then he was only 2nd behind Alex Song.

He didn't take off until his second season which was under ancelotti. His first season was in a new environment when mourinho was having his meltdown. Just like lucho was having a meltdown here.

The thing is that Gomes was never brought here to be a starter, so the hopes of him turning good are useless as he won't be more than a backup player even he magically learns to play football... Sell this guy to partially fund actual needs of the team...

 

[GetIn]

Oh quit your pathetic moaning. I'm guessing you're new to the game, since you trust every single rumor out there? Or your could perhaps point me towards the official statement from the club in regards to the 70m Verratti limit?

Wait, you didn't take that post as satire?

 

[Windhook]

The funny thing is he is putting the same kind of display for Portugal as he did for Barca all season. He is trying so hard to show off some genius that apparently he doesn't have that is laughable. I literally rolled on the floor the other day when he dribbled sideways in the penalty area and then tried a back heel pass to Cristiano which, of course, was unsuccessful. Everyone in the Mexican defence knew what his next move would be.

But that's not even slightly what you said you "Vividly remember"

He wasn't declared one of Madrid's biggest ever flops so your entire narrative crumbles to pieces. Modric was a victim of a kneejerk reaction to him failing to adapt in his first 4 months. Very, very, VERY different from Gomes who is our standout worst midfielder since at least Riijkard after an entire season of performances.

Fernando Polo and Aguilar (MD) say Barca turned down three offers for Gomes.

If I read the article right one of them is Juventus and the other two are United and possibly Arsenal or the Spurs.

 

[serghei]

Gomes is playing fine for Portugal. Not extraordinary or anything, but well enough to be a starter.

 

[ManOfvigFCB]

Must be great to play with both Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi.

For us or for Portugal? If you mean for us, you're full of it, and if you mean for Portugal, that just means they have no options.

 

[blaugrana1987]

Jesus people the guy looks like handball player! He will never be fit for top team midfield. He is not technical or agile enough, not even close. People comparing him to Modric...lol modric showed plenty of class in Totenham and Croatia, and Gomes showed NOTHING.

I swear if they had offers and didnt sell...
