Barca Transfers and Rumors

I think this Real Sociedad game proves that if we sign a winger in the summer or in 2026 whenever they decide to pull the trigger, I hope they sign someone who can take over games so to speak with his dribbling + creativity. Depth is severely lacking and creativity from the wings is next to zero with Lamine out.

As far as Nico's concerned that train has passed.

Time to sell/terminate injury prone players.

Arujo dejong fati Christensen.

The more I watch the more I realize that availability is the most important thing in a player these days. They cost a lot of money, and they make registering players difficult to boot , and are always absent. An exodus is required.

Nico Williams?

Couldn't even score a goal this morning against villadolid.

You want goals you want chances its Musiala or Wirtz. Pedri proved today how much of a useless cunt he can be. Fucking disgrace today. I'm from Barcelona so listen up..... we need recruits... Balde and Pedri can go and fuck themselves their so far up their ass it's not funny the whole team was shit but I expect more from them two. Utter disgrace bench worthy if people cry about spots I swear delete your profile. They want to stay well stay on the bench I said ages ago pedri is a second half player the moron has all this talent and refuse to use it but get injured more than he can pass it correctly ffs or set up a goal.

The amount of passes that came from Pedri, Fermin and De jong and failed or set us back the three of them can fuck off..... Gavi showed more in 10mins that the lot of them.

Olmo came on did what he could till Pedri gave him his shitness and then he turned to shit. Pedri is a clown he will never live up to Iniesta that's for sure.

Málaga won their match against Cartagena and is very close to the playoff spots. However, the other news was in the whistles from La Rosaleda for its current top scorer and top assistant, Antoñito Cordero. The youth player came onto the field in the 79th minute for Kevin Medina and the blue and white crowd welcomed him with a whistle, which was then divided among those who applauded the player to calm things down. The young player did not react to this and remained on the sidelines the entire time he was on the pitch. Little by little the whistles dissipated and some people even ended up applauding the youth player, who started several quality plays on the wing.

It must be remembered that all the whistles come from the player's non-renewal. The footballer's contract ends in June 2025 and the Martiricos club has leaked that its representatives do not want to sit down to renew. All this has caused a small moment of tension in which the fans wanted to scold their player a little like the father who pulls his ear.

People need to get over Nico. He is an extremely wasteful and frustrating player.
If you want a winger who can play as CF too go for Marmoush.
Nico might get better, but it will be in 2 or 3 years.

People always will fall for the speed merchants. Of course speed can't be taught but usually all of them rely way too much on that 1 attribute. If we get Leao or Williams it can add something different but also could be Dembele-ish

Not sure about Nico but Leao is definitely reminiscent of dumbele . Pure speed merchant
How often do you watch Milan to make this conclusion? Be honest... I watch them very often and have come to a conclusion Leao is capable of much more than just outrunning his man. So is Nico.

Both are levels ahead of that fucker. He should be the bottom line when judging wingers ability.

I also think we should get a winger. Leao, Nico, Marmoush whoever... Just bring. Raphinha and Lamine the only 2 really good wingers we have. If you rest one of them you're fucked. And considering one of them is 17 and from time to time needs to be rested, this is an urgent situation.

Nico and Leao are in poor form but their talent is undeniable. Marmoush is in crazy form but could very possibly be a scam on a bigger stage too. So you have 2 different cases here, idk what the club chooses honestly I'd be ok with them all.

We should not be buying guys based on a hot streak of form. I hope they choose wisely. If we do have to I'd say go for Nico just from the aspect that he can play both wings. Which helps cover for 2 and give him a lot of games. Chemistry reasons with Spain as well.

I'd like to see Barca go for Xavi Simons. Doesn't he have a choice to pick whichever club he wants to sign for permanently?

Yeah I normally agree with @MontenegrinCuler on football but I really do not rate Leao at all. I acknowledge though that maybe I am being harsh, and that he watches Milan most weeks and I do not watch them as regularly as that. Maybe the guy is better than we give him credit for.

This is a good video. You can see he uses his incredible speed a lot but he is not limited to that. I know how unreliable shit like this usually is but even if you watch his games on regular you'll see the same shit. His finishing is also really good, which is a positive in Flick's system.

What I dislike about him is surely his workrate, as most people do. Nobody in Milan questions his talent because it won them the Scudetto in 21/22 but the way he can give absolutely zero bucks about the defensive part of the game is embarrassing and annoying for a player previously worth north of hundred milion. That's why he got benched under Fonseca, although his offensive output also worsened. Then came the games against Madrid and Calgiari so things supposedly turned around, we'll see if he can come back to top form after international break or if he can shine for Portugal.

Overall he is a quality player, class above Dembele of course but just like the French dude he was overrated for a long period of time with his price but now considering problems in Milan I wouldn't be surprised if they ship him off for much smaller price. In that case I wouldn't mind having him althought it remains questionable if he would agree to so much running under Flick or he would continue his Milan behavior. In the latter case we should stay away from him forever.

Fair enough. Yeah videos can be misleading but I will watch that package later anyway (busy now), and I don't doubt what you say about when watching full games.

Thanks for the good post and for expressing your opinions in a clear and thoughtful way.

By the way, this winter transfer window could be a really busy one.

There are no more international breaks until March after this one, which means players will literally have to play a game almost every 3 days for more than 4 months:ohmy:

Andd ofc it smells of more injuries, both for us and for others which means it could get ugly. Those that have a good squad depth might find themselves in a surprisingly good position late into the season.
