Barca Transfers and Rumors

I don't know what more proof some guys need after we witnessed what is possible. You can buy this name or that name.
Idea is to get a player who is hungry to win here and has a good work-rate. Fast players too who can cover ground on offside traps and break on counters.

No to fucking Sane or fat Tah. Or Kimmich.
Insane how some people still didn't learn a thing from the Bartomeu era. He did exactly that, bringing in players with a big name and gave them huge contracts, who never identified with our club, nor with our philosophy. That was our fuckin downfall, with money and sports.
We started to rise again when our own boys became the backbone, the main pillars again, surrounded by world class transfers exactly the same as it was under Pep.

Now people want to pay Sane €20m/y for what, to create bad mood in the squad? In our current financial situation? It sounds like bad comedy. How often people want to touch the hot stove and burn their hand. Our financial situation forces us back to the roots and with a great coach, we seem unstoppable. The club just needs to continue develop our core, save money for 1-2 world class transfers in the near future to finish the squad, like a striker because Lewy can't fight age. I don't think we need to look for a DM anymore. Casado convinced me a 100%, with Bernal returning, Gavi, Pedri, Frenkie, Christensen all capable to play there the position is covered.

How is Alex Garcia doing in Germany btw?

Xavi wanted him for 18m which was a great deal to be fair.

I'm not sure he has a spot in our 11 with how Casado and potentially Bernal turned out, not to mention Olmo coming in.

Hell fucking no to another low IQ winger like Sane - even if he suddenly decides that he shouldn't earn so much. Dembele was enough for me.

Almost everyone of those 3 are fast for their positions, Tah is the typical big guy who looks heavy, but actually has good speed in his game, Sane was always quick, and Kimmich was never a slouch for a midfielder.

And this teams still lack depth in fullbacks and attack, after milking almost every drop of talent of our B team.

Your statement would have been applicable on Inigo just 3 months ago, and yet here we are. Same for Christensen, Kessie when they first joined.

No one here is asking for the club to stop counting on our boys, we just want upgrades over Martin & Pau Victor.

All of the players discussed are free agents, who will cost less than buying players who are ready to contribute. And yes, free agents asks for signing bonus, but the same happens with players who have 5 years contract. Free agents are hot commodity because no matter how you spin it, they cost less.

It is all about allocation of resources, Nico Williams is known to have a massive wage demands (that turned Chelsea off) and 60M release clause. Would it be better to get him, or negotiate a shorter lower contract withSane who just lost his starting place in Bayern?

What if Inigo decides to leave and no one from La Masia/ B team convinced Flick? Is it better to get Tah/VVD or just splash money on a player?

Every argument for every player will be related to our unknown finances, the rest of positions we need to reinforce, which ypung players Flick rates and who he doesn't.

Son allows Lamine to rest with Raphinha moving to the right. I think in LaLiga he can give 2 big seasons.

But Laporta will go for Nico if finances are sorted in all likelihood. Which is not a bad decision. 3 top wide players for 2 positions is nothing. Just look at the City and PSG squads.
Both (Nico and Son) would be a good option if we sell Ferran and Fati. Son can also cover ST spot..

Sane will go to the team where he'll get paid the most. He want 20m+ per year.

No fucking thanks to that if those are his terms.

Honestly Son on two year deal if he want to win some trophies before he eventually goes to the MLS would be nice. Don't think his salary demands will be as crazy as Sane's and he's still a really good player.

Also a player who presses and works really hard off the ball.

Boniface should be of massive interest. If he leaves Leverkusen, Barça should be his No. 1 destination. Which fits his opinion on Spanish football.

Bryan Zaragoza is worth a punt for left wing as well as all 3 places behind Lewa.

Would work for us as twice the player than Sane.

I like him actually, have proposed him before. I actually wanted us to try and loan him... Knowing Bayern though they'll try to fuck with us if we show interest in him :rolleyes:

Only Musiala would be good enough for us, impossible though.
I have never seen that dude perform in big games. Bochum and Dinamo, part-time farmers, you can score a hundred goals against em.
Curious if that will change in the next years.
