Being an idiot.What for?
Mathieu is a quality signing , if benatia would've been bought he would've come instead of vermaelen , but I didn't expect that LE would still use mash as cb , which would've pushed bartra farther in the picking order.
Lol, check what I said In the previous post...
No one in Barcaforum can argue against the fact we've over-paid for Mathieu considering the reasons I have mentioned previously

We overpaid by 5m probably... no biggy for a club like Barca.
2-3 seasons is all we need from him. Yes he was expensive for a 31 year old but quality CB's are not plentiful. We all wanted Benatia or whoever but I firmly believe in Mathieu.I'm here.
I can understand that some people here believe Mathieu has so far made a good start of this season. But our defense has never been on a really big test to be honest, no big surprise since we have so far almost encountered weaker teams who park the bus....
The fact still remains that we have over-paid for a defender who turns 31 in October. Admittedly, Mathieu's quite fast but given his predilection for cigarettes and his high age, the risk is pretty big that he loses it. And I have not even mentioned the injury risk tends to be generally higher for older player.

Also we are Barca, we always over pay for players.
Yes, then later...... We can bring in Laporte
