Sevilla is not a second rate club and Fazio while not WC is still solid enough to be a good CB for any clubClearly, Fazio is a liability that will not have a long career at any top club. Wait and see.

Sevilla are not a top club either. Fazio is an average defender that struggles with pace and people running at him. He wont have a long career at any top club.
While that is Ok we can't expect to be relying on Marcos to start immediatley as our CB thats why we need a exp CB as a stop gap solution until Bartra and the other young CB are polished enough to be counted upon. Plus it will be a screw you to Bartra if Marcos comes and becomes the starting CBNothing wrong with a raw cb. Especially ones with WC potential and with pique next to him. Remember this is a new project, don't expect CL in the first season...
Valencia have a new sugardaddy owner it wont be easy to get their playersI know Valencia are playing hard ball but Mathieu could be the stop gap older cb.
You saw Marquinhos play in the recent Toulon tournament I think for Brazil? He showed why he wasn't ready to start in a backline especially one as volatile as Barca's. Currently Bartra is a better option for a starting CB than him. Plus Marcos doesn't have the exp as Pique had or like Laporte or Mussachio have so its a considerably large gamble to trust a youngster like him to start for usI know Valencia are playing hard ball but Mathieu could be the stop gap older cb. Also I would play marcos immediately, playing time makes him better.
How good do you think varane would be if he played regularly this season for example? He'd be well in his way to becoming top three cb in the world.
If it were up to you guys we'd never buy youngsters (pique was young when we got him)...

How does Laporte have more expirience?
I would also prefer him to marq though.
He has been playing as a regular starter CB for Athletic for 2 seasons I think
