Transfers and Rumours - old thread

I disagree, Bartra is (or supposed to be) a promising central defender. This year that there where chances for him to play in the second half of the season, he was neglected and the stuff remembered him in the Ch. League games against Bayern. Now that we are low on central defenders, Bartra once again might not get any chance at all ( I don't believe that in his case, the stuff will ever pick him up after a possible future loan) and we will be down on one defender in general. The central defenders in Barca B are really young and cannot replace anyone in the first team right now. Finally, I said that this is sad based on the behaviour we tend to have since last year with the Masia "graduates". Of course this rumor might not be true at all!!


Batra is an excellent prospect. Problem is Tito wants the finished product and wants it now! Batra doesn't have to start but he can be first choice back up and get a lot of minutes seeing how our defenders are always injured. When you are short of defenders it is sheer lunacy to loan out a promising one. Batra's all round attributes are very good. Needs a bit of muscle and maybe a bit more speed but his aeriel prowess, passing and positioning are pretty damn good. Loaning players out has done no one any good. NOONE. The players don't seem to be able to cement first team spots even in lesser sides and we just keep loaning them out-destroying their careers. Its best to either keep or sell. A loan should be a rare thing.

If we buy anything it should be Porto's scouting network. It would save us millions. Look how many flops we've bought-its sickening.

The troubling thing is the Rooney rumours are just not going away. I pray we do not sign him or we will become another Galactico side-big on style, short on substance.

I don't know what is wrong with tito,he seems to be thinking short term, maybe his doctors have told him he should not coach again after the next two seasons,cos all those he want are short term signing (and he was not the one that wanted neymar) so that he can win as many things he can in the next two season,cos i don't know why we are interested in rooney of all people and spending 25m+villa on him when in three years time he will become another villa(a player signed for a large sum of money but only had 1 great year,high salary and the only club interested in are not willing to pay more than 5 million for.if we wabt to get a real 9 why not benteke for 20m,or if we just want a player to improve and bring something new to our attack why not offer villa+5million for michu,or villa+20million/25 for lewa or 20million+villa for lamela. I rather have any of this deal instead of rooney(over-rated english) if we want to improve our attack.but if we want to improve our team why not 15+villa for verthogen(to replace abidal) or even 10m for zouma and swap villa for kondogbia(next yaya toure) and the remaining 15m for ander stergen and this last deal will be the best deal for the future of the club and the present and not short term,overated rooney.when tito knew he would need a confirm 9 why didn't he offer arsenal 10m+villa for vanpersie(who wanted to leave and come to us,the highest goalscorer in epl last two season and the guy stopping rooney from playing as a 9)

Bartra is 22 years old prospect with only 1 year of experience with first team,that isn't good sign
Barca B has some better younger prospects in CB in Le & Bagnack who both rated higher than Bartra and might be more realistic option for 5th CB
Bartra being loaned is the best way tbh,he isn't convincing the management ,many fans don't like him at all (me included ) ,a loan is good solution for all parties

Ibra's failure as a plan B makes me baffled when I hear someone say that we need a real striker. Ibra seemed like the perfect player/fit for the role, but he still ended the season being benched( rightfully so) by none other than Bojan.

He was benched by Pep because they fell out over tactics apparently ...

the same thing that happen to bartra and muniesa will happen to edgar ie and bagnack i.e they will both be allowed to leave on free transfer or loan out,can't see the thing that is happening to our young players is not a question of their ability,it is as result of rosell been the next florentino perez and tito been the next mourinho,tell me which of our young players shouldn't have played more last season.all what rosell and his management and tito are galaticos,rosell was just fooling around lying that he want to reduce the club debt but deep in his heart he want to increase it,because i don't know why we want to sell,loan or release all our young player.delofeu should also have played more match with the first team,during guardiola era we had many young player in our team and they played fairly well.i am sure by next season we will loan or sell montoya,sergi roberto and tello. And i think this we cause a big problem for whoever take charge after rosell and tito,and all the player we have signed in laporta have flopped or are just average.

Pep era lasted 4 years,Tito was in the team for 1 season half of it he wasn't even with the team ,b4 that he was Pep assistant when we were playing those young players
I would want to see 1 more year of him b4 making a judgement of him being a coach who don't play youngsters

@barcastuff: Barcelona is working on a deal with Man United including 3 players: Rooney (to Barcelona for 30M), Thiago and Villa (to Utd for 26M) [sport]
