Memphis Depay

[Windhook]

Xavi looks for squad depth, so I expect some action on the transfer market these days. Carrasco in the summer is... I don't know. Not very enthusiastic about it.

So the only CF we have is Lewandowski and we have no substitutes or replacement? From a pretty luxurious/deep front line to a barren one again. Well, I guess we had to do it, Depay had wanted to leave for a while, 3m is better than nothing I guess.

I am hoping Fati will regain his old self, Dembele and Raphinha will do better and Torres, anything better than he is is a win for us.

Luuk De Jong back on loan would be ideal

Probably only at Barca securing a 20M purchase option for an 30 year old attacker on a 1 year contract who's not even important for his team is considered to be worth something lol.

Reminds me of these useless "first options" that came with the Villa deal or on random Brazilian kids we used to get all the time.

Well, at least it's better than giving him away for free.

Now she is half way there. Atletico de Memphis.

Carassco is a wack ass player now. Don't understand those deals barca make to add quantity to the squad just to end up with the bellerins and the kessies and the depays.

I haven’t said much regarding Carrasco, but this basically sums up how I feel every time I read Barca might be in it for him.

Xavi said that they will decide on the end of season if they want to buy him.

Hard pass.

I think it's close for 10-15m. Carrasco under a manager that can motivate him can be a solid player. Even if he is a squad option, for 15m doubt it gets better than that.

Not gonna lie, I'd take a chance on him.

Fati - Carrasco, Dembele - Raphinha, Lewa + good back-up is not bad. I'd be happy with that if there's no possibility for a top tier left winger.

Another winger that can't dribble..

hard pass.

In general the wingers that can dribble great in 1 vs 1 are very very expensive. It is probably the rarest and most sought after skill for a winger. Many get to be very good players on that position without being gifted in this area.

 

[vuji_31]

I know, but buying players that we don't will not make work.

We have usless Ferret, sem useless Fati, add Carrasco, Rapinha also semi useless...

5 wingers one able to dribble.

It makes us just easy to read.

Also Carrasco is 30 years old.

If he was 28, okay...His decline ic coming very sooon, even now he is not that crazy fast or good.

Another deadweight in books.

Carrasco is one of the best dribblers though.

Ferran Torress kind of dribbler, tried to watch his highlights average af.

Nah man you're tripping. How have you not known that he's a good dribbler? He's playing in Europe since 13/14. Look up his dribbling stats: https://www.whoscored.com/Players/115472/History/Yannick-Carrasco. He's good with both left foot and the right foot, can cut inside, can run outside, can do tricks.
