No way Kompany joins Barca for that reason. This is a man who actually thinks Manchester City winning the quadruple is a matter of time. Getting him is a pipe dream.

I don't speak spanish. Is this supposed to be Zubis list?
If so he basically just wrote every name down that came up mind.
Or is it just a list journalists made?

City will bid for Messi and Iniesta then. Consider the stupidity of our transfer dealings, it wouldnt surprise me if we wasted weeks of bidding for Kompany.
Messi is better in center, but it often forces other players to play out of position (or not at all like Zlatan). Villa is the best example. While he had one good season with Barca, he clearly suffered later because of lack of speed. Whole attack might have been better with Villa as 9 and Messi as RW. Of course if Messi gets real wingers, him playing in center won't be an issue. As real wingers I mean someone who is able to beat defenders one on one, is fast and can also score. Neymar was good first step (he must improve though), Barca needs someone similar, just bigger and stronger on RW.
I no longer believe Messi should play on RW, because it looks like to me he's a little slower, than in previous years. Not much, just a little.

So should Aguero play on the right wing?

Why are the people here wants Aguero?! Yeah he's world class but always injured like Van Persie. Do you guys even follow his career and his list of injury? It would be a waste of money to buy an expensive player and play only half a season. He gets injured every month FFS.
He won't be a winger really will be like how Villa was Forward but just a little off to the side. I think we'll get Reus though he seems to actually want to come here.

i hope we get reus. aguero is overrated and overpriced
I think we need to be more dynamic than just playing Messi as a false 9 most of the time. If god forbid he is injured or like most of this season rendered ineffective then what is the alternative. Messi is fairly dynamic up front and really could play anywhere up front depending on who we get. Aguero may suit Barca but for me we should get someone who could add more "variety". Suarez is the better player but the budget makes this unrealistic. Reus is more realistic and gives us more "variety" but we would still want some that simply puts the ball in the net who has a good work rate .ie a CF that could play wide

Will say it again, Messi is immense drifting just behind a striker. Leave him alone, let him go where he feels he needs to go, and he becomes even more dangerous. If we can get the others like Neymar and Iniesta to find consistent form again, then the pressure is taken off Messi, and he can do what he does best. This season, Messi has been under too much pressure to carry the team, and his performances were up and down. Not hos fault, and when the fans gets on his back, then its a tougher ask.
Central defence is priority, but an experienced attacking duo of Reus and Aguero wont be bad. Xavi days are coming to and end as a player, and Neymar can slot in there. For me following i would sign:
Ter Tegen
Reus
Luiz
Aguero
Cuadrado
Javi Martinez
Leighton Baines
Ter Stegan
Martinez/Cuadrado Luiz Pique Alba/Baines
Busquets/Martinez
Neymar/Cuadrado Reus/Cesc Iniesta/Pedro
Messi
Aguero/Reus/Neymar
For me that is a very flexible team, with Martinez and Luiz able to fill in at Center Back, if Pique is injured or suspended. Reus can play any where in the front line, so can Messi and Neymar.
On the bench there will be Cesc, Rafinha, Pedro, GK, Cuadrado, and whoever doesnt start.
2 central defenders, a right back, and 2 versatile attackers plus Ter Stegan and i think we are good to go.
Midfield ??
We've lost Thiago , maybe losing Cesc and Xavi is a pale shadow of his former self .
