Sergio Busquets

[Egert]

I would accept it when PSG gives us Marquinhos, Verratti, Matuidi, Cavani, Ibra and Rabiot for Busi

 

[CuleLife4Life]

Took me a while to think on this but I think I would swap Busi for Marquinhos (hurts to admit this lol). He is just not irreplaceable in my eyes and his recent performances don't help. And if Samper develops well and given a chance, he could take over for Busi plus he is 7 yrs younger than him. Marquinhos would give us 10-13 solid years of a great CB.

I would swap Sergi Roberto for Verratti or Marquinhos. Who's with me?

I wouldn't swap Busquets for Marquinhos or even Verratti right now,(this is one I might consider) not until I know we have someone who can fill Busquets' boots.

I would be tempted to swap Busi for Marquinhos AND Verratti, though.

I'd swap Douglas for Aurier. I'd be fine swapping Vermaelen for Marquinhos too.

 

[Vars]

I don't like Marquinhos tbh.

He's a mercenary and never really showed interest in playing for barça.

 

[Alik]

If we had Macherano stepping in for Busquets at DM, with Samper lined up to take the mantle, and Veratti (or Marquinhos (maybe plus cash)) to boot, wouldn't we be a stronger team?

To me it's tempting, and Busquets is not irreplaceable as we adapt, but I wouldn't take it. Got to love Biscuits.

I'd be tempted by that too. But no, I wouldn't be able to go through with it.

 

[instinct]

I wouldn't swap Busquets for anyone.

Busquets is the future of the club.
No f*ckin way he leaves anywhere and I won't exchange him with any other defensive midfielder because we already have one of the best in the world, el jefecito.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

I'd do it for Marquinhos instead. As gr8 as Busi is, I don't think he is irreplaceable. Samper, IMO, has the skillset and the temperament to eventually fill the void resulting from a potential Busi departure.

Bussi bussi... Lacking atm, so slow in defence.

Bussi bussi... Lacking atm, so slow in defence.

To be fair on him he was offered next to no protection in midfield from Iniesta and Rafinha.

The majority of time at least Iniesta tried to get back but just didnt seem to have the legs. Rafinha one time I can remember him making a tackle - other than that he was nowhere to be seen when Malaga broke.

Literally when they broke there was every Barca defensive player and midfielder getting back but not Rafinha.

Rakitic has his faults but he is far and away the best defender of and CM Barca has. From now until the end of season would not want a midfield without Masch or Rakitic.

Any other combination is just shit defensively and doesn move ball forward quick enough.

Not his fault he's the only midfielder who plays IN the midfield or does any defensive duties. Look at the games where he plays well and you'll notice something different to the ones where he (and the team) play poorly.

Busquets: "I don’t want people talking about me, for good or bad. I don’t do many interviews. I don’t have Twitter." [guardian]

Busquets: "I don’t long for praise or the lead role. If I did, I wouldn’t play in this position. I love my role, I love the job I do."

Busquets: "Everyone talks highly of England and I'd like to experience it one day. You see more space. I think I'd be comfortable."
