Isaac Cuenca

[Barcaman]

Loan rumors have been surfacing every other day. Plus, I think Tito was vague last time he was asked about Cuenca but can't remember the exact words.

 

[GiantKiller]

Am I the only one who feels Cuenca should stay? We waited so long for him to come back only to let him go?
He was brilliant playing on the right flank before his injury and could be a nice alternation for Pedro.

You're not the only one.

As a pure left winger, He is the best we have atm. He'll also allow sanchez to go to the right wing to give pedrito some rest.

Yeah, I think coming off knee surgery makes his integration into an already long line of wide players pretty difficult at this stage, as well...I suppose the loan talk makes sense, it'd give Cuenca a chance to regain his form at a leisurely pace without the pressure of having to produce everytime he sets out onto the pitch...Los Che are mentioned but he'd help just about any club in Spain

 

[GiantKiller]

Yes, but he provides something very different from the right wing. Something we could really use atm and this'll probably allow Pedro a much needed break. Also, since Tito's been so patient with both Pedro and Alexis, I'd reason that he would be even more so with someone as young as Cuenca, which can be assuring.

So, in my opinion, he should stay.

 

[FCBarca]

Ideally, he'd stay & play regularly but coming off a knee injury he isn't likely to get much playing time and these 4-6 months would be wasted outside of training with the team...He should play regularly to get his timing, fitness and confidence to where it should be for a progressing talent like his

With Villa, Tello, Alexis, Pedro and even Adriano or Iniesta, I just don't see how he'd get much of a sniff of playing time...Not to mention Deulofeu who will see odd minutes here & there..We're already lamenting how slowly Villa has been re-integrating into the rotation so my guess is that Cuenca would suffer a worse fate

Plus, I'm sure the club has faith in the player otherwise he wouldn't have been extended last season and it would be for half a season - by summer/preseason he'd be back ready to win his spot in the rotation

 

[GiantKiller]

Ah, points taken. Let's see what the fate holds for him.

 

[messi_xavi_iniesta]

He should stay.

 

[Yugi]

where is this guy? what is happening to him?

 

[BarcaGirl]

Cuenca has accepted Valencia offer to join them on loan for rest of season. Valencia also want buy option. Barcelona didn't yet decide. [as]

Sad to see him leaving But good luck to him.

 

[FCBarca]

AS has published a story that the player has accepted a loan deal to play the rest of the season with Los Che but Valencia want to include a buy option...They go on to claim Barcelona are mulling it over...Can't imagine Zubi would let Cuenca go with a buy option

 

[abual3bed1]

Why let him go with the current status of our strikers bar Leo??

 

[Paganinisrvnge]

Not sure how I feel about this. I really like Cuenca but it could be good for him. Also, it might allow for Deulofeu to get a few appearances near the end of the season which wouldn't happen with so many players in front of him.

 

[raskolnikov]

Dont give them a buy clause, that would be stupid.
Or atleast include a 5 mil rebuy clause, it will be good for Cuenca to play regulary.

 

[Garrus]

I always saw him as the better one between him and tello, So no buyout BS.
