Antoine Griezmann

[Batistuta9]

Coutinho-145M
Dembele- 125M
Griezmann- 120M
Total=390M. In just transfers.

Wages
Dembele- 220,000/week x 52 weeks x 3 years = 34,320,000
Coutinho- 240,000/weekx 52 weeks x 2 years(because loan) = 24,960,000
Griezmann(initial paycut)-346,000/week x 52 x current year = 17,992,000
Total =77,272,000

390M+77M=467M waste almost close to my half a billion estimate.

But...but...we just don't have the money for Neymar...

Two and a half season, almost three wasted. Little wins so no extra cash, no extra promotion. Messi is only getting older. Face it you guys are perpetuating this

Just admit there truth. There can ONLY be ONE person that will help Barca and he's been trying to get here. His replacements are worthless and easily go ahead of his price plus wage for two seasons!!!! The money is there it's just being wasted with these losers.

Luckily if we play our cards right it can still happen even with the 220M price tag (which will be purchase way lower)

Even though I don't want neymar back because I think he is now injury prone and won't be a sound investment given his age. I'll admit he produced more for us than the 3 of those combined

What that say? It can be one player that´s shit, ok, maybe two, but three WC players are shit..It´s not up to them, obviously.

Cou is shit at Bayern.
Dembele will be shit everywhere.
So, that is only one wc player left.

And even that guy was already on a decline in his last AM season.

Are our players really as good as we believe?

They're good enough to be 3 games away from a treble in may while being managed by an absolute moron. There's your answer. Can you dig it?

Is our manager any good?

BBZ would legitimately look at the 08-09 squad (imo the most talented squad in club football history) and be like "are our players as good as we believe?".

We had prime Messi.
We have granny Messi now.
We had prime Xavi-Busi-Iniesta.
We don't have a single player who can get into the same sentence with them now.
We had Pep who was buying players who he needed.
We have Bartoclown, Robert and Abidal today.
Our sporting director was Txiki.
Today we have Abidal.

This is the most clown era on all levels.
A clown president.
A clown sporting director.
A clown coach.
The most overrated or washed out or bad fits bunch of players ever.

But cool attempt from you.
Keep em coming.
At least you are trying...
Unlike our players.

I mean, you were the one making the argument a few weeks back that our 08-09 success was a fluke. Just returning the stray mail back to the owner, dawg.

If you had your way that midfield would have been Toure-Motta-Van Bommel

Lol, you better believe it. Imagine the players that finished 4th in 2008 and were humiliated by Madrid. He'd call 80% of those crap or have-beens or shit or slow or schoolboys or whatever.

No doubt. Iniesta would've been back-up, Xavi would've been sold to Bayern (only Pep stopped it according to him), and Busi never promoted. A super-steel midfield with worriors and phisical players just like BBZ likes.

I mean, smell the coffee guys, the guy hates Arthur and partly hates Frenkie de Jong. Do the math. If the things he says would've happened FC Porto would be sitting on the same number of CLs with us.

His favorite workhorse teams: Juventus, Atletico, and Chelsea are a combined 3-11 in CL finals.

Imagine wanting to abandon generation defining, attacking football to grind out 1-0 wins and get choked in the finals.

Some of his ideas are good, in small dosages. It is important to have some of the things he writes about, like be good in the air as well, have some physicality, some players that can tackle well, do tactical fouls and be drilled defensively. Hell, Barcelona under Pep had that with Yaya, Eto'o, Keita, the man signed Ibrahimovic just for more weapons and more physicality. But he is an extremist. He doesn't want that 'too', he wants mostly that and little else.

A lucky CL draw against two shit teams?

Beat Tottenham 4-2 away, while Tottenham made the CL finals. Drew with Tottenham with our back-up players. Beat Madrid convincingly in the league. Plenty of proof that the squad is top quality.

Unless you think Roma have a better squad, and that's why we lost there 3-0. Or Shaqiri and Origi are better than Messi and Suarez. Cause that's 66% of Liverpool's attack that beat us 4-0. Their back-up players.

Heck, we even played Ivan "hasnt conceded in 150mins" Rakitic and Vidal @Anfield.
