Which player in his prime (active or retired) would fit prime Barca the most?

My dream is prime Arjen Robben in prime FC Barcelona. Imagine seeing that mf as a right wing with Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets and so on, oh my God.

 

[Barcaman]

Ronaldinho of course.

He changed everything when he came.

I meant players that weren't Barca players

Luka Modrić easily.

Great shout. Though he might lack the work rate and diligence Pedro had. He improved it later in his career, though.

Benzema no question. It would have been outrageous. Then Courtois, Koeman and Marcelo.
I will go Villa Benzema Messi - Iniesta Busquets Xavi - Marcelo, Koeman, Puyol, Dani Alves - Courtois. Nothing flashy

 

[companyofcules]

But I repeat, Benzema was born to play with Messi. The fuckers missed on him big time.

 

[Andresito]

Prime Neuer of course

 

[Messigician]

Messi

I consider this is about non-Barca players in history.

That would be Zidane for me surely. IIRC he was a fan of the club or desired in his youth.

Prime Neuer of course

This is the only correct answer.

Modric is a good runner-up shout though.

Meh, Neuer is just for show-off You can win a EURO with Unai Simon in goal.

Prime MSN in front for 2011 Barca and you can't lose a game.

 

[Porque]

Great thread title.

I think in an alternative timeline Laporta should have picked up Sergio Ramos and Modric. Both were Barca fans before their Madrid signings and ended up having legendary careers for the Blanks.

 

[mesiesta]

Modric all the way.

 

[Alik]

Who would Modric bench in prime Barça?

Neuer is who I would pick. Marcelo maybe instead of Abidal/Alba.

Not sure what non-barça forward I would pick. The best already played for us.
