Barça's Transfers and Rumors

[Devils]

Can't really compare Neymar and Pogba. Neymar is in a league of his own when it comes to top class young players, he's a level above Pogba and whoever else is in that category below him.

Pogba is good, but his salary demands are stupid and unreasonable.

Pogba should be earning what a prime xavi was earning.
wages are significantly getting higher and higher.. it may seem like he'd be earning alot but compared to other players in other teams it's just above average of a star player.

What has he done to warrant these prime Xavi wages?

nothing, but he has better offers from several other clubs and if we are to sign him we have to compete with PSG, Madrid, City with wages.
21 year old prodigies are not cheap especially when they are high in demand.

Only difference, Neymar is a striker, not to say that he is already the star player of freaking brazil.

Pogba is now the star player of freaking France you know .And midfield player with attacking abilities has been getting paid like strikers for years now .since the day players like Figo,Zidane,Nedved etc were the best player in their generation and the most expensive
He is also proven in much higher and stronger league than Neymar did back then

Pogba is widely highly rated and he is probably considered 3rd best in this young generation along Neymar & Hazard and many see him as a future Ballon d'or winner

There is a lot to compare between both Neymar & Pogba transfer sagas .but I prefer to judge each case alone .Those who compared Neymar deal back then to other similar transfers have came to the conclusion that he is the next Robinho

I am all for Pogba signing as long as it doesn't jeopardize signing other players in positions we are gonna need .
By 2016 we will most probably need a new starting and back up RBs with back up LB .at least 2 players to be back up for MSN and may be a new CB to replace one of the old CBs at that time .we have some prospects who can fill some of those positions (Grimaldo,Gerard,Munir,Sandro,Adama ) but we will need other signings specially at RB

No matter how good he is (still highly debatable), If he is coming with his huge ego and thinking he deserves to be pampered like a king and potentially jeopardize the harmony of the dressing room, I don't want this kid here.

Other than his wage demand ,is there is anything reported about an ego or attitude issue?

The wage demand itself says it all.

Adviser Braida has met with the agent of Paul Pogba (22) in Turin this week for further talks on a possible transfer next year. [gds sport]

 

[raki]

Stop chasing Pobga. Gundogan could be gone already....

On the contrary, it has been reported that he is very decent guy, these wage demands are coming from Raiola and we all know what type of person he is. Raiola also once said that Pogba will cost twice as Bale, he is delusional.

Agents represent their players..If Pogba wanted to lower his demands, Raiola wouldn't be able to do anything.

Why in the planet he would want to lower his demands? he is 22 and he would look to earn the most he can .even Xavi went for the best offer financially at the age of 35
It is one thing to have character issues that " jeopardize the harmony of the dressing room " and asking for the best deal you can get financially

Because as you said he is just 22 years old..

 

[khaled_a_d]

Because as you said he is just 22 years old..

which again means he will always try to get the best financial deal he can get .he isn't player in his 30's who doesn't care about money because he made plenty (in relative to footballers wealth)
