Paul Pogba

[barcanuck]

Yeah he is NEEDED! Hope we buy him. Iniesta is almost at Xavi role stage and Arda, Roberto, Rafinha are great tools but not a hammer like Pogba.

 

[BarçaBarça]

Wow - can we get a GIF of the assist from yesterday? I'm not getting tired of watching that pass

He really has proven himself, and would actually strengthen our midfield (few players in the world would).
I hope he stays in Juventus, so we can get him in the summer 2017, because he would improve every other teams CL-chances a lot.

He's going from strength to strength this season and have particularly improved his passing and build up from the center.

I would break the bank for him this summer.

A quote from Neymar's thread:

We could easily buy Pogba + Reus / Dybala for the rumored 200M € tbh.

+1

I am so disappointed in Neymar that I would trade him right away in some kind of a deal, if possible:
Neymar out for 130-150M (if some naive club is willing to pay that)
Pogba+Reus in for 150-170M (Pogba 100M, Reus 50-70M)
2 world class players for 1.
2 players with motivation to win titles instead of Neymar.
1 good guy (Reus) and 1 potential diva (Pogba) for the price of 1 diva (Neymar).
(So basically, we get Reus "for free" )
No matter how high are Pogba's wages, they can't be higher than what is Neymar asking, lol.
Reus and Pogba are Europeans, that means shorter trips for NT matches, and less ideas about playing on Copa America, Olympics and similar. Plus, since they are not Brazilians, a lower chance for them to turn into a Ronaldinho/Neymar mode after 2-3 years. (this sounds very cruel, I know, sorry)
A win-win deal for Barca in every way (except for Rosell and his Nike partners).

Only an injury proneness of Reus is a slight concern.

Imagine what levels of misery and disappointment we have reached when Pogba haters would actually love to bring him here

Who are you?and why did you kidnap BBZ8800?

 

[KingLeo10]

reus from neymar isn't that much of a downgrade (neymar at his best is a level above but right now he's a lost child), and if we can snag pogba along this would be quite worth it.

Or simply hijack Man City's transfer deal for Gündogan to get an even better player than Pogba instead.

Serious or just poking a little to fanboys? Pogba surely is a better player than Gündogan - clearly offensively, but at least at same level defensively, IMO.

[Ghostmaster]

Even if we bought Pogba, Verratti, Gundogan, Nolito, Reus and Gameiro it wouldn't matter if we continued to play like we did in past couple of weeks. We need different tactical approach to these bus parkers, - fast ball movement, long balls, long shots, giving up possession on purpose, anything but moving the ball around until 10 players are in their own penalty box blocking every shot we throw at them.

 

[DrPepper]

Meh. Who exactly are these bus parkers we can't get past under normal circumstances? Which means "normal" form, no fatigue, Cruyff, Panama papers, tax scandals, Chloe etc. etc. Even the best defensive side of the 21st century couldn't contain us at our best.

Perhaps it's just fatigue and thin squad, but current style of play definitely is giving me deja vu from Tata's season when we were slowly moving the ball around and hitting the brick wall again and again.

Current style from the last 4 / 5 games yes, but other than that, up until before intl break our style was perfect when Messi was sticking to the right and not all of our gala line up was dead tired.
