Barca Transfers and Rumors

[JamDav1982]

And have gradually improved since then.

When you're at the top, you make the right adjustments to stay there. Barca failed at that, however Florentino Perez is doing whatever it takes to not make the same mistake by hoarding up talent in the team.

They'll keep the same core next season. Lose a couple of players, but replace them accordingly.

If Barca's answer to that when they need improvement is Paulinho then.....well, you just gotta hope Valverde can maximize every bit of talent this team have.

The fact that we even made a bid for Paulinho is pathetic enough itself.

No team stays at the top infinitely or wins the league every year. Real are not as far ahead as people are making out. Lets see if they go on to win three league titles in a row if they are all set.

Paulinho would be a shit signing but Real are not miles ahead at all for me even though Barca need to improve certain areas.

I'm not saying a team stays at the top infinitely or that they are very far ahead, but they're on the rise and have learned how to win the league now and get over the mental hurdle. Had Barca not been so shit in some of their decision making by botching up some signings and missing out on certain players the last few years, this team wouldn't have needed to improve certain areas that much.

With Barca the curve seem to be going in an opposite direction at the moment. If they botch up this summer too, with a 600m project starting next year, it's going to become very complicated to improve the squad the next few years and that's where Real Madrid might create a distance between them and us.

Fine margins right now, but another year or two with crappy transfers and scandals, and they can race pass us while we keep lagging behind.

Have anyone even thought about the budget restrictions Espai Barca can force?

Aren't RM on their way to renew their stadium soon too?

Only renewing Santiago Bernabeu and building a hotel for 400m or so. Barca are renewing Camp Nou, building a new 'Miniestadi', renewing Palau Blaugrana, and doing everything at once so the total cost of the entire project is estimated to be 600m, but that was last year when it was supposed to start.

They have to calculate the cost again now so who knows how much it'll go over budget.

Dont think them not winning the league before was due to any mental hurdle it was just that Barca were better. Most of their players and management have won plenty titles before and know what it takes.

Any teams having poor transfer windows as rivals have good ones will suffer but for me just now people are freaking out to much in the difference between the squads and Real have some ageing players they rely massively on as well.

Need a new midfielder and RB and if Valverde is a success Barca can easily beat them to any trophy. Could even do that with this squad if Valverde is good enough but have to try and improve it.

What are you laughing about? I tell you right there that when Madrid brought back Casemiro from Porto, nobody thought that he will be a starter. And yet, here he is now, starting for Madrid and being a top 5 DM in the world. Things are not black and white all the time. You can have players improving at different rates, or great players declining quickly or any other variant. What's important is to have the right manager and the right atmosphere in the team. Things grow from there.

I think what's next is for me to give up this thread all together.
And focus on other threads
