I'd take Chicharito in a second, although not sure what his EU status is.

Who are those 6?Chicharito ,Llorente, Morata I know for sure, I think others are Sanabria & Batshuayi. Have no idea who is upper middle one

chicharito is a worse version of paco really, he wouldn't fit us any better.
also he shouldn't have a european passport yet.

For a midseason loan? worse version of Paco is decent actually.
Maxi is obviously not happening
Batshuayi is off to Monaco by the way.
Chelsea want big loan fee for Morata
chicharito, Sanabria & Llorente are the only one who we could have a chance to get. Would prefer Llorente

It'd be exciting to get someone who is a threat in the backend of a cross / corner

a target man who can receive the ball and offload it to dembele or messi
I too would prefer Llorente

Out of these I'd take Morata. He may be shit in Premier League but we know he was good in La Liga when he played for Real Madrid. But since Chelsea want massive loan fee I doubt the board is that stupid to pay big money for 6 month loan. Batshuayi is off to Monaco, Maxi is key player in Celta and they won't let him go on loan, Chicharito is shit and nowhere near the quality for Barca, Llorente is too old so I don't know, playing Malcom as false 9 seems like the best idea imo.

Playing a player out of position as a striker (like Malcom) doesnt mean "false 9" though. It just means playing a non-striker as a striker.

I dont see why they dont want to activate the Gomez release clause if they are interested in a striker. What is the solution in the summer with only Suarez as striker and no backup? Another year-long loan of a has-been striker? Gomez' release clause is actually quite low and not that much of a risk.

I couldn't agree more. Get him now while his buy out is low

He's non-EU.

Unless Coutinho has obtained his EU passport (rumored he was trying to in the summer), we can't get Gomez.

Cou already has a EU passport, which is how Arthur, Malcom and Vidal are in the team. This non-EU thing is biting us in the ass.

But the argument is that we cant buy anyone, just loan for 6 months. The question is why? Does it have anything to do with FFP regulations?

Regarding the non-EU argument, I'm in favor of loaning out Malcom. He's never going to bench Messi anyway.
