David Villa

[Dan1983]

Good move for both this club and the player. David gets playing time and plays in CL with Atletico and we take a huge wage of our wage bill and he doesn't play second fiddle to Neymar.

The only thing annoying, is the price we sold him for.

Apparently Fiorentina had bid more than Atleti did, according to Catalunya Radio. If that's true then there goes the theory that "no one" would have bid more than 5m for him.

Do we have some Ro Sell's or Zubi's agents here or sth.

Well I don't think it was up to Barça to decide. Can't imagine Spurs didn't pay more than 2M because they wanted him badly. Villas-Boas called Villa a few times apparently.

Was just saying because there were a couple people here yesterday claiming that no one would have bid more for him. Spurs did too.

They got Villa, but lost Falcao... Doesn't change anything tbh

They got some worse player than Falcao actually at this moment

Tw Villa: "Thanks to FC Barcelona, to the club, to the fans and to my teammates for these 3 wonderful years."

Tw Villa: "I leave with great memories, friendships and the support of the fans who have always made me feel very loved. Thank you so much!"

Do you honestly think 29 year olds Villa and Henry for a combined total of well over 100m euros incl wages was great? I think it was outrageous to pay that amount for one good season from players with their best years clearly behind them.

I totally agree with you.

Honestly i think that Bojan starter as Villa was, Bojan would have done as well as Villa. FOR SURE we would not have noticed a difference of 40mio.

 

[Barcilliant]

I thought Villa would be a superhit at Barca. I really did. It feels weird and it feels like his legacy was never really cemented at Barca.

 

[Jenks]

Would they be willing to demolish their wage structure?

Do they have one?

 

[Galning]

@MediaMarkt_es : No, no tenemos nada que ver en el precio que le ha puesto el Barça a Villa. No nos consta.

"No we have nothing to do with the price Barça got for Villa. Not that we know of."

Almost all the success players were bought during Rosells time in the Laporta administration. The fact that Laporta doesnt give any credit to Rosell is because he hates him. Compare Rosells administration with Laportas administration without Rosell to make a meaningful comparison and the difference couldnt be greater.

Laportas administration without Rosell got Pep in which lead to the most successful period in the clubs history.
