What if Tito decides not to buy any defender if Thiago Silva doesn't come?
Simple we attack , attack ATTACK !!

Alexis is easily worth the fee Barca paid for him in a team not including Messi. Alexis isn't going anywhere in my opinion, and I don't see Tito green lighting a move for a 19-year old CB.
Alexis' big challenge is proving he can play with Messi. I think he can play well with Messi provided he starts on the left, but he's never played there when Messi's in the line-up. Of course, Villa was #1 in the position when Sanchez arrived. Tello has also emerged as an option for the left.
Now, you have Neymar to replace Villa. I don't believe Alexis will be in the best position to succeed as a result. Alexis doesn't work well in tandem with Messi and Alves on the right. He doesn't have the freedom of movement he needs.
Alexis is a big time talent, but I don't believe he can show his full range at Barcelona on his native right flank. His best position in the Barca system is LF, and the club has plenty of cover in this position currently (Neymar, Tello, Deulofeu).
Don't remember ever seeing him play well on the left even at Udinese tbh
Edit. I've been using the multiquote button ( tick) but these are showing as separate posts !
Atletico Madrid and Malaga are interested in Bojan Krkic (22). Barcelona want to include a buy-back option in a possible deal. [md]
I wouldn't mind seeing him in either of those clubs.
I'm surprised to see (I know it's just a rumor) that Barcelona still want a buy-back option. Looks like they still haven't given up on him entirely.
Just can't let go of cantera talent can't they? Don't want another potential Cesc like drama even though I am pretty sure Bojan is a flop
Swapping Alexis for Marquinhos wouldn't be bad considering our needs to strengthen our defense.
As for Bojan, I really don't think a buy-back clause is needed. It'll be good to see him back in La Liga.
Why on earth are we going for the buy back option after this latest debacle ?
I wrote on Marquinhos thread already but latest is that we will bid 25-28m for him though Roma valuate at 35-40m.
Barca set to bid 28m, quite a bit, is he worth it?
