CL Round 4: Shakhtar - Barca 1-0

[Givenchy]

Someone needs to get fired for even approving the likes of signing Alonso.

This man cannot defend nor do anything for shit.

Add Romeu to the list

People here saying what do you expect Xavi to do with Ferran Lewa and Raphinha... those 3 cost 170m, from the club's coffers.

Could have bought a top top player with that money.

 

[serghei]

Christensen is having a shite game.

Easier said than done.

why do you think top teams spend 200m every summer these days?

 

[ajnotkeith]

Easier said than done.

Lewa was a good enough signing for a season because he gave us the league with goals, but Ferran and Raphinha's signings were just a disaster when considering every aspect.

 

[FCBfan22]

Sub Gavi, sub Romeu.

This is laughable.

 

[serghei]

It's true that signings haven't been great for money spent. But that's the norm in all teams almost. The difference is Barca can't keep spending like EPL teams, PSG etc.

 

[Behrox]

Sub Gavi, sub Romeu.

This is laughable.

subs before 60 mins are haram bro

Easier done if you don't have Xavi acting as an old-fashioned super-manager playing to be the SD at the same time like Ferguson or Wenger in the 90s

Another consequence of hiring your terrorist coach

Don't think that's true. It's just inflation. You pay a lot more for players that bring no sure results. So you need to spend and spend and spend until you eventually get signings right.

60m players these days used to cost 20m 10 years ago.

 

[ajnotkeith]

Omg they might actually be better than us

 

[FCBfan22]

BTW, what did Fermin do, so he doesn't play? Fights too much for the jersey? Is positionally too good for this bunch of stinkers?

 

[mc_lovin]

Raphina, Torres and Lewy are exactly the quality you expect for 50m. It's not like you can get someone like Villa for 40m anymore. Gambling on young talents is much more fun these days.

 

[malvolio]

Schooled by war refugees.

Barca are dusted
