"RAC1: Thiago wants to come back, but the club has yet to show any interest."

We deserve players like Paulinho and Gomes.

 

[Ursegor]

No, thanks.

Should really go for him.

Get him back please! My second fav player after Messi. And imo exactly what we need (despite his injuries), much more so than Griezman.

 

[Trafalgar]

Don't need an injury prone player ...

 

[FCBfan22]

I would've taken him back in a heartbeat, if he wasn't out for 3 months every season, because of injuries.

 

[Givenchy]

bring him home. what a fuck up we made

Throwback to the time everyone waited for Sergi Roberto to surpass him, the patient midfielder they said. Still patiently waiting his chance in the midfield at age 26

Letting Thiago leave and also letting Isco, a Barça fan, sign for Real Madrid.

What a horrific summer.

Squad management since 2012 have been pathetic.

 

[FCBfan22]

Fuck it. Discard Griezmann and go for Thiago and Eriksen. Fix the midfield for once.

 

[Hamzah]

He is injury prone and mentally weak. The squad needs more alpha males. We have too many soft players who crumble in the champions league.

 

[Alik]

Would get him back for cheap (50M max). Otherwise, no.

There were news about Niko Kovač (future Bayern coach) wanting Raki for his team. He was a Croatia NT coach so it's possible.

If we lose Rakitic the only bit of "hardness" (especially defensively) in our midfield is gone. Going to be easier to be sliced through by our opponents. Rakitic does dirty work too that no others can do, certainly not Thiago.

Thiago is a lot better defensively than he's given credit for. Hell, against Real he was def mid, and was pretty much their best player. In particular he tracked runs very well, something Rakitic often fails to do.

Eriksen should be the priority signing in my opinion, along with Arthur, who must be brought in in the summer already. The perfect Iniesta replacement, and a Xavi-esque player, who wouldn't cost much, but can become really good for us in finally fixing the midfield controller position. Both together could return our midfield to a place where Messi doesn't need to drop back every match, because we wouldn't get a quality pass to the final third of the pitch otherwise. It would be nice to get both Eriksen and Griezmann of course, but for that we'd need to sell out all the trash, including players who are doing okay, but can't add anything more to the team than a La Masia graduate could, on a much lower wages at that too. The prime example being Paulinho, Digne and Paco, if we promoted Alena, Cucu and Arnaiz. Add to that the real trash that should be sold no matter what (Gomes, Vidal, Rafinha, Denis?) and we would get more than enough from all those sales to buy Eriksen as well, since Griezmann seems to be the priority signing. But that's sadly a much too advanced thinking for this Board, i'm afraid.
