Jordi Alba

Koeman started to backpedal after the Messi meeting. Expect Suarez to start as well.

I actually expect him to get a new contract till 2023.

I am not a fan of Alba, but the alternatives who are floating around are all very underwhelming as well. Even with him staying we fortunately have enough Amigos to get rid off ;S

We don't know how good these alternatives are until they get here and are given enough playing time (which won't happen as long as Alba is around). For example Digne is much better than people gave him credit during his time here but he just never got into the starting lineup. So who knows how one of these guys might turn out if he's given a starting position.

One on the worst amigos on the pitch if not the worst.... Was really hoping to make him somehow leave, loan, bench him, whatever necessary not to see him play here no longer, enough is enough.

 

[JohnN]

Ability and physicality wise he still is better than the other veterans.
But his mentality is not good enough. It would be better to move on..

 

[Devils]

What do you expect lmao ?, he is impossible to get rid with his current contract (might be the worst in sports history).

Yeah.

Out of all the amigos, Alba is the one we are least likely to get rid of because of his ridiculous 5 year contract.

I've already come to terms that the best case scenario with Alba is to bench him and have someone else in the starting spot because no way we're getting rid of him.

 

[Alik]

He'll stay.

 

[Messigician]

I doubt Messi would ever agree to ditch Suarez for Martinez

 

[evilhita666]

Ugh, can't believe rat face will be here next season...

 

[Leong157]

Of course he will be here and he should. Despite all that poor form, we can't buy 7 new players a season. This ain't Fifa.

There is also not much option on the market.

Vidal, Rakitic, Umtiti, Suares should be prioritized.

 

[malvolio]

can't say we haven't tried to get him some competition. unfortunately firpo is terrible.

that's the case with most of the veterans in the squad. lack of good alternative pushed the coaches to come back to them.

 

[kollegah]

this fucking crying rate should leave asap.

Koeman biggest wanker in history after telling him he would be in his plans.

 

[DonAK]

So....our 4th captain next season then?

 

[FCBfan22]

Should sell him now. He will be too confused on the pitch, since there is noone to pass to.
