That Lucho considers Marcos an important part of his puzzle (RB/CB player) makes him stupid? How so? I'm not sure he asked the board to pay 40+M for him, probably just told them to sign him.

I am OK with him wanting certain players, of course, he is the coach.

However, the relentlessness in wanting to sign this Marcos guy (which I truly have no idea how good he is) at the expense of going after other targets such as Benatia and Laporte. Now sounds like we are increasingly running out of time and prospective targets to buy, we are going to settle on guys like Vemaelen?

Sigh.

Bertus but clearly he isn't out first choice since Thiago Silva is our first choice 😘

I just don't like the dealings with your shiek

A deal for Laporte could never happen unless Aymeric himself desperately wants to come here. Roma don't want to sell Benatia. Dortmund don't want to sell Hummels, Sokratis, or Subotic. There are very few people we could realistically get. Boateng might be one of them.

I think Lucho might be just as clueless as the rest of them (the hated Zubi and the board).

You reckon you know more than Zubi, Puyol or Lucho.

Calm down and realise they have made a lot of signings and are trying to improve the squad..... or just keep to the default of evryone at the club is 'clue less' and you know better.

Zubi isnt 'hated' other than by the most ignorant.

Anyways, we should discuss Boateng. For those that don't follow bayern games that much, there are several videos of his past seasons on youtube.

Here's one:


Remember players always look better than they are on these videos, but to me he's a million times better than agger or Vermi.

I'm talking about this window, not the one from a year ago.

It's unbelievable how some of people here trash Marquinhos while every spanish medias said he was Enrique's first choice. Not zubi first choice but Enrique.

If people consider that Marcos is crap, then they should be angered towards barcelona board and Enrique and should call Enrique out on this, not Marcos or PSG.

Stop being so defensive Bertus, jeez. It's not like Barcaforum is a paragon of rationality and moderation.

You literally know zero of what's going on behind doors at Barca. Assuming they are going all in for Marquinhos and totally forgetting other players is baseless at best.

Boateng had a great game against Argentina in the World Cup.

Medias here said after the final that he did a better match than hummels (the thing is that we will never know if hummels was really a bit injured or not).

He did good tho. I'd be pleased if only that marca rumor was true. Not having that much faith but there are still almost a month left, so i hope barcelona will target that type of CBs at least.

There is nothing wrong with his wish to sign Marquinhos. I'm surprised that everyone jumps on the darthvader train and roots for players just for the sake of it. Laporte? He is a decent player, very young and promising but we pretty much covered his possible position in the team with the Mathieu. Benatia? I rooted for Benatia too (a few months ago) but I realized that I don't have profound knowlegde of him to root for him but I don't call Lucho clueless just because he doesn't want to sign him. Could you please tell me a little more about him? How is his passing game? Is his build-up play decent? Can you name match where he impressed you so much that you would sign him for 50m? Can you? I'll eat my words, if you watch AS Roma matches regulary but until then I have a point.
Furthermore, there is more than a freaking month left. It's not like that it's end of August.
I have no problem with people who complain about players (if they know the to a certain degree) but it annoys me that people call Lucho clueless just because he wants to sign one of the most promising youngsters in the world. It's simply annoying. How can you be so frustrated after such a, so far, successful transfer window? It's not like we only signed Neymar and bought Bojan back for 13m like last year. I don't understand how someone can call himself a fan when he shows no trust in our coach. Instead Culés base their hate on BS MD and Sport rumours and insult the club because they didn't sign a player who they just know from Youtube.

Edit: Sometimes I wish this forum was German because I have the feeling that I can't express my opinion properly with my level of English. Sigh :lol:
