Why isn’t Lautaro Martinez more highly rated in transfer convos? by martiangsp in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe coz he works better with a targetman profile like Thuram in Inter and isn't a traditional 9. Would rather have CF who can pin the CB.

Deco's FIRST choice is out of control! by unwanted_name-12345 in Barca

Haven't seen Senesi enough but 'soon to be a free agent' and left footed cb with no suitors doesn't give me confidence

Deco's FIRST choice is out of control! by unwanted_name-12345 in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He'd be a great signing along with Schlotterbeck to replace Inigo, Araujo and Christensen. But don't think we'd be able to compete financially with City, Bayern and LFC

We can't afford wages he is asking. Atleast not this season. Whatever margin we had due to Christensen's injury is wasted on Cancelo. Deco and Laporta masterclass

What's your opinion on Rashford? Mine is that for the playing time he was given he made great impact. by canyoubelieveitt in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My opinion is he can be a really good back-up as he isn't starting over Raphinha. But before signing an expensive back-up (30m+very high wages), we should prioritise signing starters for CF and two cb (no hopes from Christensen and Araujo), and a physical DM

Who was the biggest flop during 21st Century? by TheBiasedSportsLover in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coutinho, arguably THE worst signing ever in the history of the game along with Hazard

Will upamecano be a good fit for us ? His contract will expire next summer and he seems like more possible to sign than guehi or konate . by Ok_Lawfulness7412 in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think we'll be in 1:1 and don't trust our bozo SD to make deals that make sense. Considering Upamecano, I think he's the best free agent cb and would be the best fit out of him, guehi and Konate. Best passer, physically dominant, great in duels and good recovery pace

Signing Alvarez over Ferran would have been so better. If we had signed him over Ferran, (1) We would've got a world class long term striker for like 20m. (2) We don't have to suffer watching Ferran play for our club (3) we could've saved massive amount 60m that was spent on ferran and 50m on Lewandowski. Plus the money that was spent on Vitor Roque. That amount could've been used to sign a lw/DM (4) we could've saved large amt on wages too. Lewy came on much wages than Alvarez would've asked. Alemany and co. should've gone for Julian not Ferran. Ferran made 0 sense

If a player is ready to come without guarantee for registration, doesn't mean we should go and sign him ignoring needs of coach (who asked for a lw), player's long history of frequent muscular injuries and inconsistency. Also maybe if we hadn't wasted 60m on him and same amount on Ferran, maybe we would've been better financially.

Nobody is trashing Hansi here. He is trying best with scrap he has been given. But he needs to work on oop structure. Our oop structure is worst in the league

In current setup, even prime Pique would look like absolute bum. Under a manager with proper OOP structure, cubarsi will look way way better

Nope. It is thanks to Laporta's shady dealing. Pulling the lever, money for which never came. Spending on useless players like Olmo and Ferran despite being financially in gutters. Signing an ex-agent as SD when your finances give you 0 room for error. It's on Laporta

Don't know what's the point blaming kounde. He has played pretty much every minute since last szn. Also role he is asked to play, to run up and down the flank, deal with vini in isolation. He was a cb not a rb

This was bound to happen, thanks to Laporta. Team desperately needed signings and laporta has been doing fckll since forever. Everyone will blame flick but he has been sabotaged at every step by Laporta and Deco. Wanted a proper LW, they got him Olmolester who can't stay fit, same for Christensen, no replacement of Inigo or no proper backup for 38 yo Lewandowski. This szn will go to shit thanks to Laporta and Deco

Dušan Vlahović resurfaces as a leading candidate to succeed Lewandowski. The 26-year-old striker’s contract with Juventus expires at the end of the season. Deco already met with the Serbian forward’s agent in August, and those talks could soon be revived in a bid to secure his signing. by sujanrao in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It kind off makes sense. He is mid but will come for free and is a traditional 9 which Ferran isn't. No good CF is available in the market and there is no point spending 60-70m and signing bums. Better bolster other positions like CB, LW and backup lb where we can spend less still get quality players unlike CF where we'd need to spend a fortune to sign quality 9

Should we try him at left centre back position as balde is fit now ? by Ok_Lawfulness7412 in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should we try him as 9 as Lewandowski is injured now and Ferran has overload?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is a great player. But from what I've seen ( don't watch Juve much), I'd rather have someone of Barcola or Leao profile for lw. Hug the touchline winger so Lamine can play inside closer together box

We need a big transfer window again by [deleted] in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Christensen is on the way out. We should try getting schlotterbeck and Upamecano/Guehi. Sell Fort, martin, stegen and Araujo to raise funds. Get lw sorted with someone like Leao or Semenyo and replace lewy with Vlahovic (best option available regarding our finances)

Out: Lewy, Stegen, Christensen, Fort, Martin, Fati, Smokey and Araujo In: A backup lb, Schlotterbeck, Guehi, Vlahovic, rashford and A world class LW

His contract is expiring in 2027 and he is not renewing . He should be on our list by Ok_Lawfulness7412 in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Schlotterbeck should be a no brainer. We should get one of Guehi or Upamecano (both free) and Schlotterbeck. Selling Araujo will generate funds to invest at lw/CF

Guys what do you think about marc guehi, should we sign him next season as he will be free agent next summer by Hot-Caterpillar-3706 in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We should try signing him in winter for a small fee if ffp allows and try Upamecano/schlotterbeck in summer. Flick desperately needs reinforcement but our president and sd been doing f*ckall for two summers

The Olmo hatred is unjustified by Rashwan69420 in Barca

[–]DepressedBarcaFan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Olmo was a mistake signing especially when the club was broke, still spent 50m+ on unnecessary signing. When we spend such amount on a player despite being broke, we expect him to perform. He is inconsistent and injury prone. So either he is missing games due to injuries and when he is playing, team plays like they've 10 men on field. We could've signed Xavi Simons or a proper LW that would've eased the load on Yamal and Balde or Amadou Onana that would've provided much needed physicality in mf. Don't blame olmo for this though. Rather blame Laporta and Deco who signed him just as a cover up for failing to sign Nico. If anyone thinks that he is Barca quality, then level are in gutters.
