The signing of Griezmann is irrelevant. We can absolutely not start the season without signing a proper midfielder.
Coutinho, Dembele or anyone else we have signed is never good enough without a controlling midfielder. I hope our does realize that.
What's the point if Valverde will keep starting Paulinho.
^ Huge mistake if we think bringing in a new midfielder in the middle of the season is a good move.
I love Semedo and I think he is good enough to start; however, if EV thinks otherwise, we should bring a new RB and sell Semedo. We should not repeat the same mistake and try to integrate him in his second season. Either we start him and be patient until he develops just like SR or we buy a new one.
Havent followed BM that much but since there are "rumours" about Alaba, is he able to play on the right?
If everyone is 30m, I would say buy both and send one of them on loanI really like Fabian Ruiz. Very good against Levante last round again. But I like Frenkie too. 30m for Fabian Ruiz is a bargain though. But its difficult to choose between them. I would sign one of them this season and the other one next season. By 2019 I believe Iniesta will retire and Rakitic won't be here anymore. Gomes, Denis Suarez and Vidal need to be sold. And Coutinho is a winger. Paulinho can't perform as a midfielder for us.
IMO there is room for both. Fabian Ruiz has performed good against the best sides of La Liga, won't be sad to miss out on him for just 30m.
We don’t need Alaba. Digne is not too bad and still young. And if he is not good enough we should go for Alonso from Chelsea

The 30m May double in one year
Selling Semedo would be a huge mistake, hes been totally mismanaged by EV thus far.. if he does leave he'll beast it at another team while we have to put up with Bob whos not a RB OR it could be even worse.. Arsenal are in freefall and uh Bellerin has Barca DNA right?
I've seen suggestions on Twitter and the like suggesting that Dembele is unsettled and also suggestions that we are considering offloading Dembele in this summer .... to Arsenal with Bellerin and cash coming our way !?!
This has to be nonsense surely ?
I always liked Bellerin but I'm more than happy with Samedo and Dembele - pity Valverde doesn't seem to rate them
