That’s true but this is Barca we’re talking about. Inb4 Malcom 2.0.
What's the difference between 4-4-2 and 4-2-3-1?
Yes, Messi moves in centrally behind the striker. In a 4-4-2 we line up with 4 midfielders and 2 strikers with Messi dropping down. In a 4-2-3-1 we line up with 4 attackers.
I find it baffling that people count Messi as a midfielder. He's not a midfielder. He starts at a high position and drops down.
Sure it's all numbers here and there. But put him at RW or ST, not as a CAM. More often than not that 4-2-3-1 will either look like a 4-2-4 (a disaster) or more likely a 4-4-2.
We need to have 4 players behind Messi, whether it's a 4-4-2 or a 4-3-3 with a hard working LW.

Haaland and Mbappe are strikers. You can compare Trincao with Sancho because both of them are playing as a RW.Of course, Sancho is the better one, but we don't have money to buy him. Trincao is very technical and fast, but I have this feeling that if Lautaro comes to Barcelona, Messi will accent his attention on him, most of the time.
Yes. Transfermarkt is presenting him as a DM, but in the last 6-7 games for the Wolves he got green light from the coach to play as an advanced midfielder and that is were he was in his best. It was the reason the team came back to the fifth position. His mid to opponents box playing style were very beneficiary for the Wolves, but I wouldn't mind if we sign him as a defensive midfielder and pair him with FDJ. We need that kind of player as well.

If they sign him I'd sell Suarez and sign a LW.
Not gonna happen though obviously, but this team need a proper left-winger. Haven't had one since Neymar that got the pace and dribbling ability to be a threat from the flanks and really open up the field for the team.
Playing this narrow style is just never going to work vs. the best teams.

I think that Messi said that he wants Lautaro at Barcelona. Paulinho said that Messi invited him in the middle of a match between Brazil and Argentina. Some time later, Barcelona signed him. Later, Messi said that he wanted Neymar Back... And believe me, they tryed for sure.
I truly believe that Messi has part on this. He might knows Lautaro's football and playstyle because of the national team. But i don't think that he thinks that Lautaro is THAT AMAZING. I think he is just tired of the board incopetence to form a good squad, so he takes any good hiring possible.

Having Lautaro on the team helps Messi for Argentina as well.
It seems like he is going to be our big splash this summer. I just hope it’s not for the 110 million that Inter are asking for.
The 100+ million signings come with so much pressure to live up to that price tag. If he isn’t scoring 25+ goals next season people will classify him as a failure immediately.
Look at Griezmann. He hasn’t been THAT bad all things considered and half this forum thinks he’s a bust.

Says more about half this forum than about Griezmann's quality though...

Exactly.
Even if Lautaro was free, I would rather play Suarez.
Why?
Because Suarez will score more.
Serghei is talking about CL and scoring less as long as we are winning.
Lol. We won't do anything in a CL for years with this shitty team.
Then people will reply: but what after 2021?
Well, buy someone who can score, not Lautaro.
Imagine a team after Messi and Suarez when we lose 50+30 goals per season.
And a leader of our frontline will be Lautaro.
Or:
Griezz=can't score
Lautaro=can't score
Arthur=horrible in the attacking 3rd
Frenkie=horrible in the attacking third
Semedo=braindead in attack
I am not joking: Arsenal's level or Barca 2001 under Gaspart with Saviola.
Hey, but we will link up well, lol.
Linking up level=20 000
Scored goals per match=0,80

You misunderstood me. We are pretty crap at scoring goals against top sides in Europe, as shown by our incredibly poor away scoring rate in big CL ties.
So, the point is, being a great team is not about beating Eibar and Leganes with 6-0, instead of just 2-0 or so. So, you need to make a difference between a player who maybe doesn't score 40 goals in a season, but shows up in the big games and is decisive.
I see a lot of hate about Greizmann, but without his goal vs Napoli we'd be in big trouble in CL. So, I don't fucking care he doesn't score hattricks vs La Liga cannon fodder, if he shows up and bags the goals that matter the most.
It's about quantity vs quality.
It's the same about Lautaro. Not that important he doesn't score loads of goals on Camp Nou against the Eibars. If he shows up and is sharp and bags the goals that count the most.

Bbz- shitty arguments.
Griez cant score but he scored against napoli away, something that suarez didnt achieved for 5 years. 5 YEARS DAWG and you tell me that we should rely on him for next season?
Imagine when we lose messi and suarez, and have a high capacity team who is running like mad dogs all over the pitch, from attacker to defender and imagine how some players would have more energy to be part of the attacking area in later stages of the game. We can achieve that by benching your boy suarez and that would be a huge step forward.
Frenkie - his job is not scoring
Arthur - his job is not scoring
Griezmann - like i wrote earlier
Lautaro - cant score but he scored against us, juve, napoli, dortmund this season.
Barto, spash that money as soon as the transfer window opens
