Yep. Don't get why it's so hard for some people to understand.
Had we ditched tS for Courtois then we would've ended up with none, chasing the Belgian all summer turning out to be a Thiago Silva v2 because there was no way in hell Chelsea would sell their future #1 who was already among the very best in the World.
You mean V3, right. Marquinhos was V2 already
I really don't think we were Marquinhos all summer ,we have surely had interest but it wasn't Marquinhos or bust like TS.
even if the alternative players signed was 31 years old Mathieu and Vermaelen
We got Vermi because they actually chased Marquinhos all summer.
If they worked on getting a better CB from the start, they would have never bought an injured player like that.
To me, it was more a rushed backup choice because they tried marquinhos, tried again and again, and failed.
Parisian sources already confirmed Barca was hitting on marquinhos all summer. Le_Parisien confirmed that they really offered 45M euros for example.
And a week ago, Marquinhos himself confirmed Barca really wanted him last summer, but whatever was offered, PSG kept closing the door.
Courtois was on loan from Chelsea so yeah... I prefer TER STEGEN anyway, looks way coolerCourtois should have been our keeper. He wanted to come to Barcelona but Zubi chose Term Steven over him.

I agree. I just love everything about MAtS and his super chilled style
Courtois is a monster though, such tall GKs should be forbidden from football, it's just unfair
