Barca Transfers and Rumors

Strange that noone connected the Dybala quotes of Barca having an offer for him rejected this summer with Neymar and PSG story that surfaced yesterday in L'Equipe.

I take it Barca were aware of PSG negotiating with Neymar (broke down due to Ney dad demands) and were working on a replacement (Dybala).

Not really sure what to think but if true, I'd rather we pay Griezmann release clause should Neymar leave.

Next summer could be very interesting even-more so as we'll have to replace Iniesta as starting midfielder too.

I don't think any of this rumors are true,but I think Dybala could work actually as an indirect replacement for Iniesta with Messi moving as AM and Dybala RW
Like we did after Denis subbed in against Valencia,Messi moved behind Suarez & Denis moved to the right side.

I see Fabinho and Thomas Lemar in a double swoop from Monaco as the best solution for us next summer. They would be able to cover all positions except CB, LB and striker. I cant see Masche, Mathieu and several of our midfielders stay beyond this season.

We have bought to much quantity and not enough quality.
None of the midfielders we brought in are future starter material, when Iniesta quits it will be one of the worst midfields in the league.
Midfield needs a serious overhaul, get rid of all except Iniesta, Busquets and Rakitic.
Paco i dont know what hes doing.
Umtiti is the only gem we got this year.

Neymar is LW while Dybala and Griezmann are left footed so they can play RW or CF position but I doubt they can replace Neymar. I do not think we should try to replicate Iniesta that is impossible. The only midfielder who can improve our squad right now is Verratti but it's impossible to buy him. To bad Thiago left few years ago if he stayed maybe he could have been a solution. Maybe Alena can step up in a few years...

Glen fucking Johnson. Our lord and savior. GJ a straight up OG from the slums of Stoke.

Even at his peak I'd compare him to the one and only Lord Douggy.

He's not good enough

But we love these kinds of players Douglas, Mathieu, Vermaelen, Song, Keirrison etc.

So wouldnt be surprised if we got him

Fear not , things are cooling around Johnson thankfully ... now it's Liverpool's Clynes - £20 million .

Still prefer Bellerin for whatever he costs .

Mathieu paid off. He was mostly a solid backup and scored some important goals too. Also took a paycut to join us.

So nice of you to put him in a same basket as money laundering signings like Douglas and Keirrison.

According to various sport portals our main RB options are Clyne, Cancelo or Bellerin. Bellerin for sure can not be signed in January an he could not play CL for us so than maybe Clyne or Cancelo? It will be an interesting RB hunt in winter. :)

Anyone been watching Coutinho this season and today in particular ?

4 assists today away to tough tacking Palace . Ripped them apart in another dominant and creative performance. .. We should have got him last season really . Also Bellerin is getting better and better .

I'd love these two at Barca. , sooner rather than later !!
