Barca Transfers and Rumors

It's not decision by Valverde ffs.

Big signing means it's not Paulinho! Let's be clear, it has to be someone big.

Azpilicueta would be a pretty big signing. Semedo would be a pretty good signing as well. We need some good news these days.

Journalist and on my end he's followed by Edu Polo,Fernando Polo,Oriol Domènech,Miguel Rico,Gabriel Sans,Paco Aguilar, Sique Rodríguez Gairí and the Cadena Ser Program Què t'hi jugues!

I wouldn't have post it if he didn't have some decent journalists knowing who he is.


Thanks for sharing,but everyone of them is following at least 600 people tbf, he is a journalist and normal for him to be followed. How credible is he? Have absolutely no idea.
The thing is, such rumors is a safe for him. He says no name and get retweeted a lot while if it didn't work he can just say deal stalled etc. Obviously could have got it from a source he has.
Will see

Why would a journalist not name the player linked and break a story on a big signing?

Most likely he is speaking crap to get attention and it is working.

The only reason is that his source refused to tell him more. Thing is in journalism today the chances that this is a made up story is slightly above 96.8%

We've not even been able to sell anyone either.

Arda, Vermaelen and Lord is back. They apparently want to sell Munir, but not much happening there either.

Most boring/sad transfer summer in some time so far this with them misfiring on Verratti and Bellerin and the Chinese club President saving us from wasting money on Paulinho :lol:

Sad because of them wanting Paulinho.

-Douglas will probably get loaned another year in Spain to get his Citizenship, no one in Liga will pay for him. We already got a good offer for him last year but he wants to stay to get it. So he is a lost cause. probably get Citizenship during next season and then fuck off for Brazil in 2018 for half million or something. Expect such loan to happen at August.
-Vermaelen won't stay, there is a market for him but it is a about what type of deal we can get for him. I am ok with the waiting tbh in hope to get money for him. Hope De Boer really push for him.
-Arda is a nightmare for me,never wanted someone out like him. But I think this will need Valverde to tell him he isn't in his plan, may be Valverde will wait till few sessions in the pre-season till he decides? I hope so
-Munir will also be a late deal, he is a player we want to sell but not desperately. He would probably stay if we don't get the offer we want so normally we will wait with his sale.

Agree it is a boring summer, overall there is 6 players we want out and 3 players we want in. only 2 are out and only 1 is signed. one third of work after half the time we had since end of last season. And it is the easiest third too

So sad to see the club become an also ran.

Barca in danger of hurdling towards obscurity. Messi won't be here forever.

We're turning into Valencia.

This is what happens when you hand out big fat contracts to everyone. Players don't want to move to some other teams where they'd earn half of what Barca pays them. In general to stay at Barca/Madrid even though you are not a top class player you have to sacrifice some money. But with us, you also get payed more than elsewhere to just train with Messi, Neymar and live in a great city mostly.

They keep wanting to do that and people think everything is alright.

It will not be if we continue signing mediocrity and hand them premium salaries.

You'd think they would learn from their mistakes. At least Gomes or Paco are young and will get offers. Arda after being average and choking old people, broken Vermaelen and a guy who wasn't even rated in Brazil won't command many offers.

Just imagine if we managed to sign Semedo, B.Silva and Cabellos.

That would have been around 80-90 million in transfers, which is usually our annual transfer budget and would have addressed pretty much all of our problems.

Robert, Braida and the rest of those goons should rot. Fucking idiots.

Probably a baseless rumour.

My excitement dipped when Farto said that an exciting signing for him doesn't mean it'll be exciting for the fans. That's a warning sign :lol:
