Barca Transfers and Rumors

[Trafalgar]

Cédric Bakambu from Beijing Guoan had agreed to sign for Barça but the club changed their mind at the last minute.

The player had already taken a flight to Hong Kong from Seoul, to then fly to Barcelona. However, the transfer broke down.

Abidal contacted the forward to tell him the club had changed their mind. The player is sad. It all happened less than 24 hours ago.

Dont hope that's true. How classless can a club be.

Dont hope that's true. How classless can a club be.

As classless as their board, and ours is pretty fucking classless

How hard is it to get a cf on loan?

Hope that doesn't come back to bite us.

People are going to blame Abidal and he shares some responsibility here, but we're on our third Sporting Director and one General Manager under Bartomeu/Rosell, and this keep happening every year.

They just seem to be clueless, lacking a plan on what type of players they want or even which players they want. When they actually decide on a player profile/player they end up being too late and either miss out on the player or have to wait on him.

Zubi, Robert, Abidal and Pep Segura. It's a pattern now, and with a pattern like this the lion share of the blame should be on the President and Board.

Damn dawg, Bakambu would have been an incredible signing WTF.

Bunch of idiots second-guessing an incredible opportunity.

Abidal doesn't seem the idiot. He's just a fall guy in all this if anything comes back to him. He's probably the semi-smart-naive guy who is trying to steer cretins and thinks it's better to be on the inside and try than to take his ball and expose the club as the institutional trainwreck that they are...

.. but I actually think there's more value in the latter. Even if it comes at a cost of short-term club reputation and getting nothing out of Messi's last years when you scare any more players away.

From what I have observed for quite some time, Abidal seems completely out of his depth. This board always hire former players as directors to score some easy points but not what a top club should do.

New board, completely new sporting department.

A signing here and there won’t do anything. These idiots won’t take us anywhere

Bakambu has scored 23 times in 27 appearances in China. Not bad.

Even if it’s a waste of ~5million I would rather have an additional attacker in case someone gets hurt...

 

[Riordon]

Just wait this summer we will chase Neymar for a couple of months with him not leaving Paris and us missing out on other targets

Another mess like all the previous 4-5 seasons

This club continues to be run like a mom and dad soccer club. Complete fucking amateurs.

 

[Messigician]

Wtf Abidal doing dawg.

This beast would have been the next Paulinho.
