Oriol Romeu (loaned to Girona)

[Aryagorn]

He must have underestimated Quique Sanchez Flores then

Perhaps Chelsea can become our feeder club

 

[diegomessi]

So ... we have sent a spy to Chelski nice

 

[Barcafan 2304]

Lol, great opportunity for him. Like i said before, we seem to have wisened up a bit with youngsters recently

 

[IrvDizzle]

so long as Rossel is putting in buy-back clauses I see no reason to be upset at Oriol (and Bojan) leaving the club. if the club had any sense, Cesc would have gotten a buy-back clause and we wouldn't be stressing/annoyed over his transfer saga.

 

[antonnn]

Yeah but Cesc was never good enough to play for Barca until recently really, and the buyback clause would only have lasted 2 years, 3 max if you were lucky.

 

[Aasim]

There wouldn't have been any buy back clause because we couldn't offer Cesc a pro contract at 16. Arsenal came in and swooped him away. It's not like we could have done anything more apart from persuade Cesc to stay.

Cesc @ 16 was the Best player @ WC U-17 (2003)... (topscorer also, with 5 goals )
he won both Golden Ball & Golden Boot like Messi in 2005 (Wc U-20)!
he had it from the beginning!

Would have saved this saga at least!

 

[antonnn]

Yeah but he'd be a bench warmer, unless the club would have pushed Iniesta out wide to accommodate Cesc.

Why move the thread already? He hasn't signed with Chelsea yet!

Anyways, I think he did pretty bad vs Ecuador. No pace, passes giving the opposition extremely dangerous chances and clumsily tried to win the ball. He looked much, much better in the u19.

He did show of some quality, however, but his game was a disappointment overall. Hopefully it's just because of his long injury and that he's not match fit yet.

Yes he did ? Isn't it official yet?
Just hasn't been presented?
Idk lol nvm

 

[Myrmecophile]

It's done, just waiting until after the U-20 before it's official.

 

[jamrock]

Though he has a good game myself
