Barça's Transfers and Rumors

[Martindn]

Are barcelona fans happy with their transfers? (Taking into consideration the ban)

CAS won't reduce punishment. Barca is guilty as much as can be. Their only way of defence was that La Masia is good for children. Nobody tried to convince FIFA that laws weren't broken.

And as I said before, I don't think we'll do much next summer even if the ban is lifted.

Forget Kovacic and invest time in Samper. He'll be better.

This.

Very happy. If you had offered me what we have at the start of the window I would have taken it. Only slight disappointment is Douglas but who knows what will happen with him.

Zubi was asked about benatia:

Zubizarreta: "Benatia? We chose to sign Mathieu and Vermaelen. Every team has their own needs. We needed left-footed, versatile players

The final layout

This concludes our transfers until 2016 lol. So much for 120M budget.

Their argument has been about the kind of punishment,not about the fact that we deserve to be punished
Best case scenario it will be one transfer window ,but I agree that most likely won't be reduced

Barcelona rejected yesterday an offer from the representatives of Inter midfielder Fredy Guarin (28) to sign the Colombian player. [md]

 

[Icarium]

Can we just fire him. We don't need him until 2016. Puyol can take care of minor issues.

It does not mean that wasn't our budget. You don't just spend 40-50 mill on Cuadrado because you can.

I actually think Zubizaretta did pretty well. Barca fans should be fairly content with their chosen club's transfer activities. At least, most of the transfers made sense unlike Real's and some are even absolute star signings (Suarez and more or less Rakitic).
Who cares about 120M, 100, 90 or 70M€ in transfer fees. Also there are probably some sign on fees to be considered.

 

[Andrew M]

No doubt that Suarez is the greatest player to transfer this window.

LoL. Fool. You forgot Lord Bendtner.
