Malcom

[MagIX]

Can someone post EV's line up with Messi, Suarez, Dembele, Malcolm, Coutinho, Busquets, Raki or Arthur?

For me already with Messi, Suarez, Dembele and Coutinho it's hard to find where to put them on the field...

I suppose something like that:

Dembele-Suarez-Messi
Coutinho-Busquets-Rakitic
or similar....

= maybe copa, maybe liga, no cl

[Di Marzio] Malcom decided that he will go to Barcelona, Roma now resigned

I’m not going to pretend I’ve seen a single second of Malcolm, other than a YouTube video last night, but I can get behind his potential purchase more than a 30 year old Willian, who has a averaged about 5 goals + 5 assists each season for the last few years.

I know Malcolm has been courted by a number of Europe’s big clubs, and has pretty good stats at Bordeaux. From what I’m aware and seen on YT, he’s not a tier 1 talent, but he’s pacey, has a goal threat and can create too. He’s also young and half the price of Willian and probably a future mainstay of the Brazilian squad (I know he wasn’t far away from a call up for the World Cup), so I see this transfer, as a promising option for the squad and team.

I actually think he has similarities to Douglas Costa, who despite very modest numbers, I’m sure all would agree has a lot of quality, and would be a useful player for any side.

I perhaps would have preferred someone right footed (a natural inverted winger to play on the left), but with Dembele being so two footed, can’t see why he wouldn’t be capable of playing on the left.

I have been reading inter milan forum since someone drooped link.It is bunch of no sense they would rather buy Cheisea then Malcom.That says all.
If half of europe was asking about him it means somthing.

Inter dont have money like we have so they are afraid of spashing 40 million on Malcom while they need to buy at least 5 players and they have not money for that.

These are some stats compared to the other wingers in Ligue 1.
If this looks bad for you then I don't know...

Also he is playing in worse club then the other players.But his stats are really good in my opinion.

Barcelona will sign Malcom in the next few hours. The Brazilian will sign a contract for 5 seasons and will earn around €5m a year. Barça will pay €41m to Bordeaux and the Catalan club is already working on the official announcement. [@brunoandrd]

So, he had 2 seasons in Europe and his skills have potential?
But, Rabiot and his 5 seasons don't have potential?

You are as biased as me.
I have a fetish on proven, physcal&technical players.
You have a fetish on young players
You see "positive" in every young kid no matter how many times we fail, with a reply: each kid is a different case.
Well, it is, but some patterns are repeating all the time.

If we buy someone from South America, you incessantly focus on that player not having European experience. This guy does. 2 and a half years having established himself in France. I dont pay that much attention to it, and the vast majority of young players I am against signing, as I try to judge players individually, but you focus alot on age and European experience. So we would definitely not have signed Mbappe last summer with his 20 games at senior level by this logic. Its a bad strategy to just close the door on players based on their age.

Regarding Rabiot, its not about "potential". I've seen enough to know what I think he can and can not do. He's a decent player, can we get him for 30-35m and a reasonable wage, sign him up, but acting desperate with PSG on the other side is not needed.

Statistically the main point about Malcom is that in his second season at Bordeaux he doubled the amount of goals scored while maintaining the same amount of assists. Thats a great progression based off of 3000+ minutes each season.

So if you cant hire monchi let him work for you and go after his targets wouldnt be surprised if this is the reason why we have gone for this player

Says the transfer fee is €40m, same as Roma offered in their new deal but Malcom prefer Barca. Currently traveling to BCN.

Ojooooo

Boy, it's such a relief we know we won't spend 60+ millions on fucking Willian. Surprised that our board didn't go full retard.

 

[Androutsos]

After so many failures in the market, it feels good to finally have such a big 'fuck you' transfer.

Nothing is official.

Monchi is good, but imo at Roma he is not a director who is looking for players FOR BARCA, players for CL titles.
He is now a director for re-selling:
Find good cheap talents, re-sell for profit.
Aka: buy for 5, sell for 15.
Buy for 20, sell for 40.
Buy for 35 (Malcom), sell for 50-70m.

Monchi's interest doesn't mean that Malcom is Barca's level.
It only means that Malcom has a re-sell value and a chance to turn into a guy on whom they can earn 10-20-30m in 2 years.

So, Mochi as Barca's director and Monchi as Roma's director are 2 different things.
Don't be fooled by that.
Oh wait... maybe we were fooled already...
We'll see the answer quite soon.

You have a point. Monchi is working for Roma and he's looking for players who will improve his team. Those players are not necessary also good enough for us. I've said that as well. But for me he's still at least a top 3/5 SD in the world (it's true I don't know internal structures of most clubs well enough to know who true decision maker is in those clubs though) so I'll give him a benefit of the doubt and rate his evaluation of the players over fans opinions.
