Arda Turan

Is that a real picture? Also yes, it does seem he is a Barca fan. He could have gone somewhere else and played straight away for more money and been a starter.

Total Barca fan Arda. I bet when he heard from his agent that we are interested in signing him he couldn't sleep that night. He, like Rakitic, will give 100% everytime, I'm sure of that. These players are all in for Barcelona. I mean, they see the club as their dream come true. They will dig deep even in those moments when our veterans will be complacent. Having three players up front that very rarely do defensive work means we need mifielders that are willing to put in hard effort. I think Arda and Rakitic share the willingness of sacrificing their game for the good of the team. I see two midfielders that could cover a lot of ground, make sliding tackles, fight for every ball. And when they do get the ball, they have the skill and the game intelligence to put our strikers in good position. From then, the MSN will get the job done almost every single game. Turan is that type of player that combines skill and even finesse when he's on the ball, with agression (in the good sense) when he isn't. Every manager would want somebody like that in his team, a man equally useful both when your team has the ball, and when it doesn't.

I liked his facebook page, seems a big barca fan and I don't understand Turkish but he is always posting about galatasaray too. This guy is an emotional player who will fight hard, like suarez.

[Barcaman]

I like those quotes. Seems humble and eager to play

 

[Cruijffista]

Let's do this, Arda!!!

 

[ThwiX]

Can he play in the pre-season friendlies?

 

[serghei]

More praise for Barca and Messi and everyone will forget he cost 34+ variables.

 

[Hamzah]

41 million euros isn't that much for a player of this quality.

 

[ATLBarcaFan]

I like the signing, when watching Atleti play, Turan always seems to be playing hard. He also possesses his fair share of skill, he will be a great asset for Barca.

 

[Devils]

I'm looking forward to January already.

Unleash both Arda and Aleix. Two absolute demons on the pitch.
