Barça's Transfers and Rumors

[JamDav1982]

CB is Masche best position at Barca and he has been far better than the weak link there.

He is the leader/organizer is the best at reading the game and covering for others on the break and has been fantastic player for the club.

All this crap about it not being his best position or him being a weak link just shows some people up as totally clueless.

Pep decided to play him at CB and called him his best signing at Barca while he played there. Masch also won the fans player of the year in that position and has gone on to win multiple trophies and two CLs with some of if not the best defensive records around.

Far from being the weak link in defence for me he has been the most important defender. Guess who was missing from the Bayern mauling in CL for example.

People like to point to his mistakes but for a defender asked to cover for so many others and to ask to win the ball early there have been relatively few and the positives he brings far outweighs any mistakes. Mistakes that EVERY defender asked to play the way he has in a team like Barca will make.

Absolute legend of a player and nothing like a weak link or stop gap measure.

 

[Barcaman]

And it's non coincidence Lucho calls him to the sidelines for instructions. He's the unofficial captain of this team.

Nice to see Masche get the credit he deserves

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

And he is the best passer we have in the back line. Huge improvement to Puyol in that regard who was very cautious with his passing so Masche makes us deal better with pressure.

 

[Flavia]

And it's non coincidence Lucho calls him to the sidelines for instructions. He's the unofficial captain of this team.

He is officially one of the captains too. Replaced Xavi.

 

[MasChe]

I love y'all too.

Recently Masche did an interview in regards to his future here and he thinks he won't be able to retire here due to the physical demands when he gets older.

The day he decides to leave will be a sad one without a doubt, easily a Barca Legend that served us so well and I doubt we would ever find someone like him ever again. It still astonishes the amount of crap he gets from a portion of the Fan base.

According to Paco Aguilar we are targeting a CB,LB, and a Forward for the summer window.

Our main LB option is Adrián Marín, from Villarreal and the CB's are Marquinhos,Laporte, Stones, Jiménez and Funes Mori.

Can't wait for him to leave so that we can finally get a real CB.

And we got 60m excl. sales.

 

[gasgas]

i want jimenez

 

[Barcaman]

CB's are Marquinhos,Laporte, Stones, Jiménez and Funes Mori.

Laporte - buyout 50mil. + taxes + he is crap
Marquinhos - Nasser won't sell
Gimenez - Atleti won't sell, inadequate technique
Stones - possible if we manage to throw Deu in
Mori - Everton just signed him

 

[DonAK]

Laporte is 'crap' while Stones is not?

Mustafi could be another option, but then again, also very expensive.

 

[Topolino]

Ragnar Klavan

We were also following River Plate's Emanuel Mammana but He's raw. and there's also Marlon Santos from Fluminense, that we have First Option on but he's way to Raw and hasn't performed that well recently.
