I'm not a big fan of the Garcia or Aguero signings, but Gini, Depay and Emerson will be great.

Gini and Emerson signings would basically end Sergi Roberto's Barca career. I'd pay 100m for that alone!

Yeah, you seem to be a big fan of mediocrity.

There is no point sacking Koeman if there is no top coach available, maybe we keep him a season and then we will have more options.

If we bring in Depay, Aguero, Garcia & Wijnaldum on free transfers then that is great business and makes the squad much stronger, and with the financial situation the club is in, we can't really expect much more right now.

If it's between Koeman staying and gambling on an unproven coach like Xavi I would definitely prefer the gamble. Can't be worse than what Koeman has shown so far. But then again, I'm not really that much against him. If he stays I wouldn't be overly disappointed.

Tbh, give Koeman another year and bring Gini and Depay. This will be the best option, even though I don't like Koeman.

There's some interesting dutch players open atm. Depay, Gini, maybe even De Ligt - which would be ideal.

so another FDJ type of player? will we rotate between the two?

still no new playmaker, still no new controller, still no real physical DM.

also, everyone talks about squad strength, when in fact we don't even have 11 nailed on starters. so we bring in a bunch of rejects to fill the bench and then what?

Who should Barca sign?

These players improving squad is valid argument whether the starting line up needs improved further or not.

Likes of Depay and Wijnaldum would get in Barcas starting line up as it is now.

Wijnaldum is a bit declined compared to 2-3 years ago, but he's still one of the best players you could hope to sign on a free with a reasonable salary. Also, I think he would complement De Jong very well.

dunno mate, i'm not laporta/koeman. but i would have passed on garcia and one of depay/wijnaldum.

debatable about depay and wijnaldum getting into our current 11, provided we play 3-5-2. depay would play striker? and wijnaldum instead of FDJ or pedri?

meanwhile liverpool is getting konate for 35mil. bayern got upamecano for 42mil. if we don't get kounde or something similar we are fucked.

can't wait to start next season with Dumb, Dumber, Garcia and Mingueza. that CB collection is as midtable as it gets and then you have MaTS in goal.. yikes

Depay and Wijnaldum are actually decent signings to bolster the squad but we gotta accept our financial situation + the lack of quality in our first 11

Dont have to be Laporta/Koeman to have opinions on players Barca should be in for.

Agreed Barca need a CB but improving the squad matters and doesnt become irrelevant just because team can be improved further.

Depay is better CF than garbage like Braithwaite and Garcia for me is better than Mingueza but no more than being signed as 4th CB to try and improve squad.

No one is getting over excited by these signings but happy of think improves squad in certain areas.
