Jean Michaël Seri

Who is a great signing in your opinion?

Obvious time will tell but for me all three of Dembele, Seri and Semedo would have potential to be great signings.

 

[DonAK]

Would be 1 great signing, 2 good signings, and 1 bad signing. Under this board, take it and run.

What if it's No Dembele, No Seri, No Coutinho and only Paulinho and Semedo?

 

[Messi983]

Then it would be one great signing, one good, and one bad (Deulofeu).

Show 'em the door. We try to pull off a great season with what we have and look to get a competent board for next summer.

Basically, a replacement for Neymar has to be signed. At least get Seri if that's not possible no matter how much we try.

What if it's No Dembele, No Seri, No Coutinho and only Paulinho and Semedo?

Then we can expect elections soon enough.

A window of Dembele-Seri-Paulinho-Semedo is still good.

But with Paulinho obviously being the weak link.

Seri + Paulinho. We already have Denis, Rafinha, Gomes, Busquets, Arda, Roberto, Rakitic, Iniesta, Alena...

 

[GetIn]

Seri + Paulinho. We already have Denis, Rafinha, Gomes, Busquets, Arda, Roberto, Rakitic, Iniesta, Alena...

Right, we have tons of midfielders but most of them are shit, that's the problem.

 

[jairzinho]

Dembele-Coutinho-Seri-Paulinho will all be good in this window. We need to move Andre Gomes. Either him or Rafinha can go to Pool. Let Arda go to Galatasaray.

 

[Jombi]

Right, we have tons of midfielders but most of them are shit, that's the problem.

And most will not be sold (none?), and we're adding more mediocrity with Paulinho. The wage bill is beyond ridiculous with this squad. Thats also a huge problem.

 

[NoExpectations]

Well, we needed another scrub to steal roberto, samper and alena's careers.

 

[Sorin]

Well, we needed another scrub to steal roberto, samper and alena's careers.

That's the major problem with this signing. You just can't justify paying 40m + wages for player who will steal playing time from youngsters who above else need fucking minutes to grow into their potential. He's not even better than them aside from experience. Apologists will say, "but, but Alena is staying with Barca B this year". So what, the other 4 years disappear? The wages will disappear in the next years?

Also how can you even rationalize paying this kind of money for a guy that went to China for 14m, 3 years ago? Remember, these chinese clubs are paying tens of millions for fringe squad player from around Europe. Tottenham also considered this a great deal btw. Levy fleecing clubs left, right and center since 2000 and they sold this guy for 14 fecking millions when he was in his prime at 26 yo. Now the guy is clearly on the downside of his career and we throw the cash at him.

Even if we buy Coutinho and Dembele, this board must go. They should have been booted a long time ago but this shit they're pulling now surely has them thrown out. The socios can't be that stupid to still support this guy after this summer. I refuse to believe so.

Edit: Thought this was the Paulinho thread.

 

[wisconsincule]

With Paulihno incoming Seri will NOT happen. I am so fucking pissed off. We won't get Dembele or Coutihno either. Utter incompetence. It's really mind blowing.

 

[Messi983]

Signing Paulinho doesn't exclude signing Seri.

 

[Sorin]

We already have 2156168165156 mids + Paulinho and Seri? Yeah not gonna happen.

Or do you guys think we're gonna get rid of some of them?

 

[Raketa10]

Signing Paulinho doesn't exclude signing Seri.

Signing Paulinho excludes common sense.
