So, it seems that we will buy defenders (I would like Umtiti+Lemos).
And then we will have only some money for an oldie MSN back up.
That is fine since we improved defense and attack.
But in midfield we are screwed.
We can only hope that Iniesta+Raki will be injury free for 12 Months and hope that MSN+back up will be motivated enough and do the job.
If one of them (Ini+Raki) gets injured, then bye-bye everything.
Not only a CL.
I wouldn't be surprised if we struggle even in La liga then with Robertos, Rafinhas and Ardas as our starting midfielders.
So, fine, we don't have money for all 3 lines this summer.
And I don't mean anything bad, but this season Roberto, Rafinha (and Suarez) are either gonna explode in form or get exposed as being not good enough.
With not good enough, I mean for starters or to be relied on in biggest matches (I know, I know, Roberto played one good game in biggest matches, let's forget that since even Bartra had 2 good matches against Psg and Atletico) and we will buy some world class 3rd Cm, and these guys will either get sold or kept as 4th and 5th options.
I am starting to look at Rafinha and Roberto as on new Bartras.
Young, good guys with some potential.
People expect too much out of them, but as years go by, they aren't improving (enough) and they can be used only as rotation-squad players.
I see that too many people say: we don't need new midfielders, we have Rafinha, Roberto, Suarez...
Well, that's a lot of depth and not too much starter-quality.
Anyway, ok, we will get 2 Cbs, Umtiti and Lemon (as GasGas say) and a MSN backup this summer.
But then, if we don't buy a new young, world-class 50-100m CM next summer, I will seriously walk to Barcelona and burn Barto's office, lol.
