For his sake too really, he shouldn't waste another year like this, he'll be a great player for any EPL team.

He would suck in the EPL. He's done.

He's 27, just lacks playing time and confidence which is understandable, but you can't say he's done. Even playing very few games this season, he has more goals than Sterling, a player the EPL is going all nuts about .. surely he can be usefull to plenty of epl teams.

What do you guys think about the idea/rumor of converting him into a right back/wing back? It worked fairly well against PSG last autumn. I personally don't see it as a very foreseeable thing due to his lack of experience on this position and defensive abilities but nevertheless it could be an option especially against weaker opponents.

Hmm, iirc it was a bit chaotic even if we won, I didn't see Pedro doing any defensive work, it was always Bartra covering that side..

I am not convinced myself just saying that it could become an option. This way he might get more playing time too. Nothing would stop him from playing in the attack either when needed.

We don't really have many options due to the ban caused by the moronic board.

Well actually, someone has to stop him if he plays RB haha, he'd systematically end up attacking too much and thus creating a lot of danger on his side .. honestly, I don't see him accepting that, it'll be him taking a hit on his carreer for the sake of the team, he's done that enough..

I was refering to him still being able to substitute either Messi, Neymar and Suárez when needed despite potentially moving positions on the field.

All that depends on the tactical instructions that he will be given.

I am just saying that based on his speed, passing ability, pressing, technique, offensive abilities etc. he would become a very capable right back/wing back if he worked on his defensive game and tactically.

Anyway it's nothing more than a thought.

Damn that transfer ban. Zubi and the board really screwed up royally last summer. Their squad planning was abysmal to a large degree.

I hear the administrative sanctions could be forgiven with the FIFA elections in may .. well, unless it's Figo who wins ofc.

I read that as well but I honestly think that it's complete and utter bullshit. I hope that I will be wrong though. It would make life so much easier for the new board (hopefully).

Even if it's a 1% chance the board should be well prepared so what happened this summer doesn't happen again .. just realize last minut you can sign and sign anyone available and his grandma..

RM is doing a great preventive job in case they're banned too (they're are being investigated).
