Paulinho

He's the alternative to signing Verratti.

That's what counts. We don't sign another midfielder if he comes.

Adding mediocrity depth to a midfield that need quality.

If the plan is Messi as AM then go with Busquets-Roberto or Busquets-Rakitic as the midfield.

You still have Gomes and Samper possibly as other options.

Yes but not being sought after as a similar type player. The alternative is going down another route and someone else being asked to fill any gap left by Verratti not being there.

I'm not saying it's the same kind of player.

I'm saying they're going for a mediocre/average player to fill in for a position we already have covered. Both Rakitic and Roberto can play as B2B MF and so can Gomes.

It's actually better to sign NO ONE than sign Paulinho which is just adding another problem.

IF and that's a big IF Valverde is requesting this signing, they should tell him to suck it up and reject it.

The worst part for me is not even that as he could well be better for Barca than likes of Gomes but the fact it is jumping from Verratti to Paulinho smacks of there being no clear plan of how team plays next season. If he is only midfielder signed.

Rac1 saying we will activate his buyout clause (40 Million).

Which begs the question,

What has Robert and his team planned for months?

Gomes, Arda, Paulinho. 115 million. The perfect midfield.

What a time to be alive.

hahaha! It just gets better and better. I thought 30m would be the end of the horror show, but looks like one of the most reliable sources Rac1 say it will be 40m.

And another 140m in wages for the three of them. lol.

It's really only a matter of time before we pay >100M for a paraplegic.

 

[Zebulun]

Rosell and Bartomeu really fucked us royally

 

[serghei]

I don't believe for a second we will pay 40m. for this player. Maybe it's bullshit.

We pretty much did that with Vermaelen
