Asier Illarramendi

[Cruijffista]

No, Thiago was the best player of the tournament.

He really wasn't aside from the Final. Illarramendi was superb the whole tournament.

You guys aren't even checking or waiting for the official websites confirmations these days and quote the oh-so-trustworthy-Marca info?

Price is 32,190,000 as the 21% tax is deducted through the club tax settlements.

And put it this way, I prefer 32mln gamble on Illarra than 60-odd mln gamble on Nikemar. Interpret that any way you want.

There are bigger talents out there in the same position, but the transfer seems logic considering Real can't buy someone from Barça and Illara's Spanish.

This guy Because Barca's youngsters in that position are oh so glorious these days.

Only delusion can make you think 57m for Neymar is more a gamble than 32m for Illaramendi.

57m on ability alone Neymar is the better deal, add to that Neymars profile and it is a far better deal.

lets not kid ourselves. perez is desperate to win back the fans of spain (and their own disgruntled spanish fans) after mou severely destroyed the spanish connection madrid had, so they focus exclusively on spanish players now instead of looking abroad, meaning they have to overpay.

Yes they are. I've already said Illara's a good player but you Real fans are just trying to defend everything your president does these days. Just arrange with the fact that you overpaid on this guy. Next thing Florentino's gonna do is pay 70m for Iñigo Martínez and you'll say it's still a better deal than Neymar. Just try to be objective for one second instead of trolling.

 

[El Gato]

Never said it's less of a gamble. I said I PREFER this gamble over yours. And Pepe was overpaid and turned out to be worth his money in ability after 3 years under contract so don't be ridiculous. And try to read instead of jizzing because Perez made one slightly overpriced deal which gives you a reason to finally bash Real after your Rosell summer of mourning. We're still having a blast this summer compared to you lot. Who is subjective now?

Who is it that Barca have to offer in Illarramendi's position that is better than him? I'm listening.

It is not like the fans are paying from their pockets to buy players. As Madrid's squad have no clear weaknesses at the moment ( like our desperate need for one or two centre backs), they can pay as much as they want and buy young and talented Spanish players. In my opinion as a fan having a player like Isco or Illaramendi is better than having 38 millions sitting in a bank.

what? Busquets is 10 times the player illarramendi is, has won everything there is to win for a footballer, and only 2 years older.

in 5 years, spain will likely play with samper, busi and javi martinez, while illarramendi is playing for liverpool.

 

[El Gato]

Youngsters and prospects we're talking aren't we?

As for Busi, he doesn't do what Xabi does, he doesn't do what Xavi does, he does what Busquets does. Different guy for a different role.

Of course you PREFER it. Why would you prefer Barcelonas gamble?

Busquets is in Illarramendis position and is in a different class to him.

this is just frivolous semantics. illa does what he does, and no one does what messi does. we play busi as our DM, so there you have it. and our greatest talent together with deulofeu is sergi samper who will be a mainstay at the spain midfield in the future if he stays fit.

Stop kidding yourself.

You would've laughed your ass off if it was us that bought an ''unproven DM'' (the exact words you'd have used to describe him) for over €30.

 

[El Gato]

I wouldn't if you needed him. Besides no one can deny his ability. And I like the gamble because of the circumstances. He has room to grow and people to grow under. The improvement in our transfer policy and the decline in yours is undeniable.

What is the whole big issue? Does 30mln for a Sociedad player finally give you a reason to bitch about a Madrid transfer, because it's only "not too good" of a transfer fee? Great. Have a blast boys if it helps you. I'm sure you have more helpful transfers in the bag to address your own needs in good time like we did with Asier.

lol, i like how the transfer fee you mention for illaramendi is always getting reduced. perez would have bought neymar for 100m if he could, lets not kid ourselves.

 

[ammarfcb]

And these sucktards are offering using 20m +callelol for suarez
