My opinions are probably worth more than Pep's when it comes to defenders.
Mad to think David Luiz was at one point the most expensive defender in the world. Now he?s just a meme
Pep must be trolling, although some stuff he comes out with is odd.
Well we missed out on Rabiot, the one Abidal wanted the most.
So of course he wants to go for the poor mans variant of Rabiot.

Damn, still can't believe those idiots spent so much money on him. He is now a 20 mil player at best. Even before he flopped, he was at max a 60-80 mil player. The boards desperation to replace Neymar has ruined this club. One panic buy in Dembele was bad, but to do it again 6 months later for Cou, was the worst deal in history of any sport.
At least Dembele had some insane physical attributes and was really young. Still a long shot but on the other hand, Coutinho never looked so good (in my opinion) and he wasn't that young either, so we couldn't expect improvement.
He was considered the Iniesta replacement, like you can just buy a player of Iniesta's level from other clubs.. no one would sell.
