Villa goes- Neymar comes. I don't see other options.
Anyway, what we should really worry about are a GK and CB.

De Rossi was SUPERB as a defender in the euros, Buffon is the best goalkeeper in the world. Götze often played RAM when they had Kagawa.

De Rossi is a thug in the Pepe mould , I wouldn't want either anywhere near my beloved Barca .

Just type in " De Rossi elbowing" into uTube .....you're spoilt for choice !

yes you are

Very funny. The players you listed cost more than Barca ever spent in one season and as I've said, your squad wouldn't even be better than the current squad as the playing style would be very different.

played there before and is amazing at it

ok

busquets could play for real if it means we get to see pirlo and xavi next to each other for all i care

I suppose you're a Real supporter then? Either this or you don't know Busquets. Plus, Pirlo's older than Xavi and I don't think he's able to do our Tiki-taka, at least not at the same pace as Busquets.

yes he can and he plays there all the time

No, he doesn't. He never plays on the right wing, he only did so in the first half of last season and only because they had Kagawa who plays in the same position. Götze is far better in the midfield and his talent would be wasted on the wing. Not to mention he wouldn't suit our style of play as a right footed player on the right wing.

Please, go post in the Real forum if you think buying some great players for countless amounts of money will help us get even better. Everyone will agree with you there, then they're going to sign all the players you proposed and 1-2 seasons from then, they'll wonder why they're still being outclassed by a team which consists mainly of canteranos for the 10th year in succession.

David Luiz is a defensive midfielder now, and he is not leaving Chelsea. He'll only play CB occasionally from now on. He's going to make a lot of things happen as DM, most of them (not all) will be good. The guy is an incredible athlete, though he will never be accused of being the most intelligent player.

1) You said you don't spend hundred of millions of players, but no team really does. You do spend as much as most of the other top clubs, which is why I said that.
2) I'm not a Real supporter, but I don't give a shit about Barcelona either. I'm a football fan and as a fan I want to see Xavi and Pirlo next to each other.
3) He played more games on the right wing than in the middle, fact.
4) Why would I go to a Real forum, if all you want is boring spaniards in your team then so be it. Don't blame me for wanting something different.

Regarding Hummels, btw: something just came to mind: none of the players that transferred out of Dortmund have managed to upkeep their performance level so far and only played at a high standard when at Dortmund.

Something I'd take into consideration.

Kagawa and Sahin is the one I knew about ,who else in that generation? sample too small tbh

Good. We don't need him.

Lucas Barrios also left Dortmund and disappeared from view and apparently now wants to return to Dortmund.

We might be able to add Lewandowski to that list ;) Beside, Dortmund players know what they have, how they are valued at the club and everything so that can explain why they are reluctant to leave, especially when you take their displays at their respective national teams under consideration as well. Neither of the players have particularly shone when playing on a constant basis which just goes to show that they are suited to the Dortmund- system. Adapation to another system would take quite the amount of time and I am not sure if Barca would manage that with Hummels, especially with Piqué and the other Spanish players away at the Confed Cup and thus missing parts of pre-season

And which players are you talking about? Barrios? Kagawa? Degen? Frei? Those were not very good. Though Kagawa is still having a hard time I think he'll be fine eventually.
I'm sure this years BvB has some top class players, and some yet to be. It wont change with the wind. Hummels, Gotze, Reus, Lewandowski. They will be good where ever they go, or to say- if they are willing to go.

I think Hummels has been up and down. He's good one day and not so good another. I still think he has the physical characteristics along with ball playing ability to play well for Barca.
