Daniel Alves

[Flavia]

He doesn't have to say yes or no to a contract offer straight away. If they offer him a contract next week he can still say: "Chill, I'll check my options in January first." Then he can use it as a tool to squeeze more money out of the club: "€10M contract pls or I'm off to the EPL for free and you can stay with Douglas until 2016."

They should have sold him or extended him long time ago. Right now it will just depend on Alves alone whether he wants to scew the club or not.

Yes... our genius board put us in this great position. The good thing is that Alves likes the club, Messi, Neymar... But this board putting the club in this position is laughable.

a Alves on a wheelchair being the last resort we have.... hopefully the fools that make up the board never get close to the name Barcelona

Alves, and his agent, always hold the club's feet to the fire in contract negotiations and threats to leave. The club re-signs very few players this old, so I am sure they will let him leave either when his current contract ends or before. The club will resist letting him leave before, since he is still very much needed on this squad at least until the transfer ban ends.

I almost would rather we play with a 3 man back than resign Alves. Guy is past it now and will be even worse as time goes on.

We have a guy with a heart problem name Adriano as the standalone RB.

Must convert Masche into RB.

Bartra can be a good RB. I'm sure about it. he has a good speed and is a very good defender.
