its thiago who we should be after at. If not him, then no1 but youth players. Yeah and why oh why would Vidal ever be a starter for Barca? He's been shit since he joined us, couple good performances coming off the bench against average teams doesn't change anything. Oh and lets just ditch Rakitic and Iniesta so we can fit in more average portuguese players into our team.

This would light the world up.
were not even looking for midfielders and most probably wont sign any unless someone is going to leave which is unlikely. Realistically the only midfielder who we would sell this summer is Arda. Samper is coming back from loan and will hopefully finally get his real chance with the first team. Hopefully our new manager will actually follow the b team and communicate with the players outside of the pitch too.
In an ideal world Sampaoli would be our manager by july. Mathieu, Arda, Gomes, Paco, Vidal, would all be gone and replaced with Marlon/Lemos, Thiago, Grimaldo, Palencia, and Munir/Feu/Sandro.
Why would Thiago come back
He's now the main man at Bayern who are not a selling team
How can Bayern sell their man to UCL rival?
especially one with a board that can not even negotiate that well
Let's just focus on players we can ACTUALLY get
Waaaaay too much youth right there have to find a better balance than that
Who cares if Bayern isn't a selling team? Kroos was the main man at Bayern aswell but look what happened. I recall not too long ago Mazinho was hoping Thiago to return to Barcelona to reunite with Rafinha and his family. If we'd actually show interest in Thiago and he pushed for a move it WOULD happen, but like I said that would only be possible in ideal world. Right now were stuck with the likes of Gomes, Arda, Paco, and Vidal unfortunately.
As if Madrid would sell him even if this was true
Forget the rest, just go and sign Bernardo Silva.
