Barca Transfers and Rumors

[vuji_31]

When he said that?

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.

At least we need to make the 5th year in every new signing or every young player re-signed as a team option and make it a deal breaker too tbh.
the fact that player like Vermaelen and Douglas still have two years in contract is stupid.
We need to be more pragmatic in our approach.

When he said that?

In an interview he gave to Cat Radio about a week ago or so.

Mina is pretty big, almost 2 meters.

I have dropped taking interest in barca's transfers altogether because I know we are only getting dissapointment,if we get anything.

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.

I thought Ceballos already signed for madrid.

I thought Ceballos already signed for madrid.

Uhu just like Silva signed for city but that's not his point.

 

[mssarm]

Looks like Ceballos never was our target, we just formally chased him to make madrid pay more. Maybe Velverde doesn't like him?

Or the cules don't like him lol

 

[mssarm]

I'm not sure about that. It seems like he was confused about his orientation.

Or he just wanted to join Madrid?

-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

Remember when people posted:
We'll get 30m for Arda, 30m for Rafinha, 20m for Munir.

... because of "a current market".

We won't sell anyone.
Or if we'll sell in August, it will be for peanuts.
Or for even less than peanuts.

unable to land Verratti, Theo Hernandez and Dani Ceballos sign for Madrid, looks like we won't even be able to land Paulinho (maybe a good thing)...what a disaster of a transfer market! I wonder if we will even get anyone?

"His return sees Guangzhou fill their fifth and final foreign player spot on their roster and he will act as back-up to compatriots Alan and Ricardo Goulart."

Different info on different sites but your source seems legit when you look at the squad on evergrandes homepage.

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.

Imo, problem is our winning era.
20-30 years ago we had normal wages and we weren't overpaying for wages.
But then Messi, Xavi and Iniesta happened and the board decided that we have to keep a winning team at all costs since current players were better than all other players from other clubs.
That was good back then.

But after that, the board hadn't realized that Mathieu is not Puyol, that Raki and Arda are not Xavi etc.
The board is still acting as if our players are a pure gold and as if we will turn into crap without them.

I could buy high wages for Msn to some extent.
But high wages for old Iniesta, Raki, Masch, Arda, Verm, Arda etc is a hint that a board is still living in a golden era.

Wake up, we are not the best club in the world anymore and we should stop paying wages as high as in 2008-2012.

These guys don't deserve high wages.

In the future, without trophies, our wages will luckily slowly go down.
