Barca Transfers and Rumors

idk Rakitic doesn't offer much to the team..

Of course we need to replace rakitic but he offers alot more on the ball than Paulinho would. Anyway rakitic should be a sub and Paulinho should stay in China

except its not.. last season we were stuffed 4-0 by PSG and 3-0 without any reply by Juve and right now? we have added 1 player (Semedo) who Valverde prefers to bench for Vidal and Paulinho.. nuff said. we've lost our future star in Neymar.

if we get both Coutinho and Dembele then the future looks a little brighter and we could survive this board for another year but right now we are in a big hole and that evidence is not based on one game alone.

No, no... It is only one game. As I said before, we do not have the players to continue with the 4-3-3. It is up to Valverde to figure this one out. I would go with a 4-2-2-2 with Mascherano and Bussi as the DMD's. A given formation is for the start or re-start of the game. The only thing is that you have the players that adapt themselves for that given formation. During the game, the formation changes constantly. Masche can drop back to give us a third CB or having a line of 5 if the other team has us cornered.

How dare you !

Who else is going to start our attacks by passing to Pique ?!!

after tonight i have bad thoughts about this season...
we have to buy players, strong players!
quickly!!! otherwise we will finish laliga fifteen points under RM and in CL we go out at quarter!!!

4-3-3 is dead in my opinion. We keep conceding counter attack goals against top european teams.

We haven't been playing 433 for over a year and half IMO, it is basically some sort of non symmetrical 442 since Messi moved to the middle in early 2016.

THIS THIS FUCKIN THIS. No so much the 4-3-3, but we keep getting found out on counters time and time again. It's annoying as hell.

Real Madrid just won two CLs playing that.

But then again they havw two great FBs.....two WC MFs that are not long past their best and can actually run...

 

[Sweden]

Even if get Dembele im going in to this season hoping we can challenge AM for second place.
Have no hope for CL at all. A new board would save the season for me.

 

[Zuti]

We need both Dembele and Coutinho,.and I have a feeling that Coutinho won't happen.

 

[Barcilliant]

We can yap on about this player and that player ...but we are ignoring the elephant in the room.

Our era is over.... finished. The spine of our side is degenerating. They are not the same players anymore. Coutinho and Dembele will make a slight difference but not much. Our midfield is outdated, our playing style... almost everything.

The board has to go first. We need fresh ideas, new players and a big name manager. Patience will be required too. The CL is out of the question this season, the league too. We have to lower our expectations.

You haver a point, but I do not think you are right. It is only one game and we are in the process of continuing life without Neymar - a once in a generation player. It is a major adjustment. As I said before, we do not have the players to continue with the 4-3-3 formation.

I agree about the board; they have to go.

As for me, Barça is in my blood. I do not care if they are first or last or wether they play in the first, second, or third division. Visca Barça. Always!

I am afraid that after today's game, both Coutinho and Dembélé went up 50% in value. I hope that Dembélé won't happen. I'm tired typing in the accents in his name.

 

[mia7007]

We won't change from 433 but if this formation did happen rakitic has to play ahead of Paulinho.

Rakitic cannot play in 4-2-3-1 in my opinion. You need the 2 to be aggressive players, as much as I don't like Paulinho, he fits in his more than Raki, Raki can play against small teams may be
But overall I prefer Sergi Roberto over both of them

I think we actually NEED ...Couthinho and Dembele AND Dybala to catch up with the other teams / squads .

I'd settle for Couthinho and one of the other two ..
