Number 6 should be retired for couple of years after which some midfielder can get it as a recognition of his work and talent. It's too big of a burden and expectation atm to wear it.

 

[DonAK]

Can't retire number 6 unless we go with 24 players in the Squad(3 GKs, 21 outfield players)

 

[Gasgas]

No worries, we will give it to Douglas until Samper is ready to take over. We bought him for a reason.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

Relax guys it is a common number. Usually central midfielders wear no. 6 and I think it is dumb to retire numbers in football.
Should we also retire 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 22 + some I forgot?

 

[DonAK]

Give '6' to Samper and get over with it. What are you gonna do when Iniesta and Messi retires or leaves?

 

[dakt]

Temporary retirement is a good option imo.

When Messi leaves...world should count from 0 to 9.

No, it's not. Samper should get it right away.

i thought we were buying pogba or de bruyne and didn't had space for sample.

Samper will be promoted no matter what happens, it's in his contract.

Wait ,what? when he renewed it the promotion clause was in 2016 not 2015 IIRC

 

[Antimadridista1]

I don't think that Samper is good enough to handle the pressure of wearing the number 6.
The best would be to buy Koke in my opinion, or to bring back Thiago but I prefer the Atleti player.

Why?
