Sell Alba for 60-80m and buy alaba for 60-80, doesnt sound too bad. Well never gonna happen, but it would be a step to a more independed messi-team. I now we all love those alba-messi moments, but have those to connected at all in champions league? The guy is heavily depending on workrate and speed, and is hitting his 30s - could be a nice pro-active move. We would be slightly worse off in la liga short term, better in champions leauge long and short term, and i think we would play more as a team with alaba > alba.

Alba has still been top 5 performing player this season, so we would take a gamble, which could pay off big time.

Dembele-------------Griezmann
---------------Messi
-------de Jong---------Arthur
-------------Sergio/rakitic
Alaba - Lenglet - De Ligt - Semedo

If we sell Rakitic we need midfielder.
Busqets,De Jong,Arthur,Vidal,Alena...

He was covering Busqets position.
Probably they will not go for Van de Beek, like it was in news.
I think he is modern ofensive player not defensive.
We will see but I hope so someone good.

I think Barca need to copy Liverpool formation.
4-3-3 but with 3 strikers being close.
Then Alba and Semedo can have space.

This is how it could look.

-------------Dembele------Grizzi--------Messi------------------

Alba-------De Jong------------------Arthur---------Semedo----

................De Ligt -----------------Pique----------------------

Liverpool plays a lot on RB and LB.This space is free because of front 3.
In this case 3 in midfield is questionable because we don't know who they are going to buy.

Kinda funny though that we are stockpiling on RBs, yet the LB spot is basically a ghost town as Miranda will likely leave on loan and Cucu being sold.

Van de Beek would be amazing. He has endless motor and defensive workrate, amazing off the ball, great one touch play.

He'd help us so much with movement off the ball and making runs for scoring/assisting which we sorely lack outside of Messi. His chemistry with FDJ is proven as well.

A midfield of Arthur-FDJ-Van de Beek is easily the best in football IMO. Would completely change the identity of this team.

Well, maybe not because there is only one man in the world that is capable of fucking it up and that's Fraudverde.

Van de Beek,De Jong and Arthur?
Hmmm...I think it lacks one strong player who is destroyer.

Guys would you like one more season with Suarez and backup striker (someone cheap like Ben Yedder,Stuani etc.) and not get Griezmann ?
If you don't buy Grizzi you have like 100 millions more to spend.

Messi, MaTS, Vidal and Pique are the only players i'd keep right now honestly.. fucking state of this team

i also think we may be better to pass on De Ligt as it seems we need a new DM, Busi is looking done

I like this but i would switch Griezmann and Messi and play Vidal or Aleña instead of Arthur.
