Ricardo Rodríguez

Also a good penalty taker. Kill two birds with one stone.

Does Barca have a reliable man for corners and long freekicks?

Messi, Ney and Raki can all put in a good ball from corners. Just scored one against Real.

Any FK within shooting distance Ney, Messi and even Suarez from a bit further out are all brilliant.

Barca wont pump long free kicks into the box and in around box there are plenty of options.

He isnt needed for set pieces.

Personally never been all that impressed with him as some people seem to be.

Yes, we have

Would be perfect to push Alba. Can't continue to have an average backup, while also having to deal with Alba's many injures.

We can't afford to pay such huge fee & wage for back up either .that is the reality we have here .a gr8 core of 13-15 player but the rest are average .we need an upgrade in the back up LB but we can't afford it to be someone like him

 

[navidjaan]

Maybe if Arda says yes to China. Who knows how much they are willing to bid...

Does anybody know if 'Kicker' is a reliable source?
They say his release-clause is ~27M € (and that Arsenal wants to pay it), which would be a quite good price I think.

I could understand if he doesn't want to come here though and want to be a sure starter.

 

[Alarcón]

He didn't have a good season and I don't know if he would suit our playing style with him being quite slow. Might be too big a risk even for 30 mil.

Kicker probably the best and most reliable in Football-Europe. When it comes to German players and German related news ofc.

 

[xavi_the_Boss]

Not sure why so many want him.

 

[Yannik]

Not sure why so many want him.

because he's a decent leftback that is not too expensive according to the sources, also just 23yrs of age

 

[Messi983]

Too expensive to be brought on as backup LB.

 

[CuleLife4Life]

Honestly, I wouldn't mind Jordi being his backup or even being sold if we could get RR. This kid is pretty good and young. He did have a quiet year compared to last season though.

 

[Alarcón]

He told 'kicker' it's unlikely he'll stay at Wolfsburg. Dortmund and Arsenal are rumoured to be interested & for the price they would have to pay (25-30m), he'd be a great transfer for them.
