Barca Transfers and Rumors

[Trickykid]

And Stones for 60m instead of Umtiti last year.

To be fair, a good portion of this forum bought heavily into the Stones hype last summer.

 

[DonAK]

Not a horrible player, but he was hyped up like the next Baresi.

Umtiti is easily better. So is Marquinhos and Varane.

He has a lot, really a lot to improve to get to those three players' level, which makes that fee even worse. The English Tax they say.

Stones is English that's why the so called hype. He played some really shitty games at Everton, and he still does. If he was a foreigner, city never would have bought him.

 

[Giginho75]

maybe has been already said, but ceballos signed for real...

we are still blocked, just a bench player like deulofeu...

i think it's impossible we will stay with the same team of last season, because has not been a good year, so i think we will do some great deals, but we need to do it quickly and soon.

Why on earth weren't we in for Bonucci !!!!

Best defender in the world by a mile - just 29 or 30 and he's going to Milan for £35 million

 

[Zincubus]

Zincubus, wants us to sign EPL stars so to speak.

I could imagine if we sold Alba and Digne and he would undoubtedly be here telling us we should buy Danny Rose and Luke Shaw.

Yeah , like Varretti / Bonucci / Thiago ......I hate those two players you mentioned for what it's worth although I still have high hopes for John Stones as does Pep ... Coutinho is a class player and would walk into our team - I'm not embarrassed about wanting him here tbh

His wife wanted to stay in Italy otherwise he would have ended up in PL, probably City or Chelsea.

But why not stay in Juve? Got s feeling something happened there.

Through out the season there were rumors that him and Allegri had some heated confrontations and the relations never got better.

This seems like one of those ultimatums Juventus had to pick by either standing by with Bonucci or siding with Allegri. and by the looks of it Juventus sided with Allegri as they feel no player should be bigger than the club.

Saw this post from a Juventino on reddit about an incident in Juve's locker room during HT at CL-final last month.

 

[Barcaman]

Cheers guys. Considering they needed to sell price wasn't that bad.

 

[Total-Football]

seems legit the story

Still i wouldn't want Bonnuci in Barca .. Italien defenders have not proven themselves in laliga

 

[mampilly]

I heard barca will play 4-2-1-3under valverdo(if varatti not available). Iniesta will available less matches, So messi or denis will be atm , both are less defensive. so barca will choose 2 dm's. in this case gomaz/samapar will be typical choices. But they will take time to adopt this system.but barca wants trophies in this season. Paulinjo is good for this position, that is why barca wants paulinjo

 

[Sepuldinho]

I dont know what u see in paulinho. Im against the idea of signing 29-30+ aged players

gomaz and sampar will be the future. paulinjo for resolving current situation
