Im sure he will only be the goalie in the copa del rey matches.
Mats will play cl/la liga.

He'd better play meaningless games like those in CL and CdR when there is nothing to lose no more because if he plays the entire CdR competition that could cost Barca against good, tough opposition...

Guys who don't like Cillessen: what exactly you don't like about him?

Ok, he is poor at saving penalties.
Other than that, he doesn't look bad at all as a Gk (quite the opposite), he has a nice league, CL and NT experience.
Plus, there aren't many of his blunders available at all on internet.

Plus, he is good with feet also (our fetish).

I still don't get what is so horrible about him:

Welcome!!!!!!!!!!!!

If we were ok with Pinto than this is MASSIVE UPGRADE! There is no team in the world who has goalkeepers like Bravo and Ter Stegen for first two choices. For me this is a good decision.
If Bravo stayed in the club than Mats would have left and that would be beyond stupid. Mats needs full playing time and Cillessen is more than ok for backup.

Its worrying how badly Lucho wanted him and the fee is also way too much for a keeper whos supposed to be playing cdr only. Mart wants to play both league and cl so he will become unhappy and leave us after this season like Bravo. Gr8 business again.

That's an expensive goalkeeper only to play Copa Del Rey.
I can't wait to see how Lucho will handle the situation but I got the feeling that he'll be used more than a usual 2nd GK.

Lucho didn't want him badly. Supposedly both him and Unzue wanted Alves, but he rejected the move. Had to settle for Cilissen, there is no way in hell we will sell Bravo and not sign anyone.

My only problem with this is we are buying him for 13M (15M) and selling Bravo for 16M (20M). His level is obviously far below Bravo, don't like the way club handled this. If Bravo and Mats wanted a decision should have acted much earlier. Half the window wasted on chasing Alves and finally forked out the cash and settled for Cilissen. Same thing is happening with Alcacer, we chased Vietto for the first half but he rejected us and now we are over paying for Alcacer. This is not the first time for this board, Vermalen was also similar transfer. In a way we can even Gomes is also a compensation for Pogba.

It's just horrible to swap Bravo with Cillessen, that simple!
