Arthur

Ramos red card in the first leg so he wont play.

Good point. In that case they're fucked

So, is Barcelona aiming for the oldest XI or something with these transfers?

We really have become the new AC Milan eh?

 

[ronniecro]

man this club sucks. selling arthur and keeping expensive bums like umtiti,dembele,probably coutinho and greasemann is unbeliveable

Apparently agent Alves convinced him to join Juve. Good job, Dani.

 

[Devils]

Please announce him being sold today. I want to kick my weekend off in celebration, dawg.

 

[vuji_31]

Well I think in club they don't want Umtiti and Dembele but nobody want to buy them.

This transfer is bound to be another HUGE failure for the board.Signing another 30 year old is pure madness at this point.The elections cannot come soon enough.

But,to be fair,Arthur has barely met the minimum expectations the past two years.Yes,he is promising,but he is injured all the time,he has shown signs of bad professional attitude and his performances were not consistent.

However,I still don’t know if it is wise to blame him or the whole mess this club has become.

Don't see anything wrong. Barcelona clearly didn't want him anymore, and Juve did. In these cases, it's better to make the deal.

What's unbelievable is this forum thining this transfer is a good thing. Baffling

Setien: "The club have not told me that Arthur is going to leave. He will be with us until the last game, for sure. He has to give everything for club which pays his wages, until the last day."

Setien: "Arthur has been used to being told to make sure of holding the ball. Now we come in and say you should play one or two touches. He has found it a challenge, but he is on good path. It will make him a better player."

Setien "Since Arthur has been with me, he has tried very hard to take on the things we've asked him. Sometimes he has lacked some consistency, but it is not easy to change things in a player which other coaches have said are very good."

Not sure you can even expect him to perform well now given how the club basically kicked him to Turin.

 

[serghei]

Is he criticizing Valverde in those quotes?

He was average even before so low expection
