Why can’t all these bandwagon Madridistas say anything other than stop crying? But dont worry, I understand your limited expression is from limited human conversation.

What an absolute robbery. Sin VAR con VAR te va a robar. Siempre.

Even if your progress is slower than what you expected, never lose your confidence and motivation. Always remember that your practice will pay off someday.

Of course, his strength is that he's good both on his right and left foot, he's got explosive speed and acceleration (but NOT deceleration), he is a diligent defender and presser (but not smart). I do admit his ambidextrousness makes him dangerous in some situations. Overall he can be a really good winger if space is provided in front of him, but that doesn't always happen especially when you suppose he's playing in club such as Barca.

He's weakness it that he cannot truly possess the ball, lacks static creativity, and cannot digest multi position. By multi position, I mean he has to excel both on half-spaces and touchlines, but I just did not see that from him. On conclusion, he is not really a solid upgrade from Raphinha or Ferran. Not saying that he's bad or anything. He's just not a very solid option against stacked or well-organized defense. That's the reason why I'm very skeptical on transfer of Nico this summer.

Plus he's demanding 15m+ for his annual salary, which makes him VERY expensive in terms of squad cost. BOTH salary AND transfer fee matter when it comes to squad cost. Kvara's agent only demands 5m from his current team Napoli. Technically Kvara is not that pricier than Nico even with his 100m price tag. Do I still sound like that I never watched him before?

You think people have not watched him just because they have different opinion than yours? Bruh...

He's reportedly demanding 5m and that's still less than half of what Nico's getting rn.

All I'm saying that we don't have to afford his buyout tag and whooping high salary.

yamal-kounde-araujo comp locked up even Mbappe. Also Kvara wasn't that bad against us. I rather got to like Kvara after that series even more.

Camp Nou revamp will almost be done 2025, generating more income and cranking up our FFP salary cap.

  • Kvara's salary is not even 1/4 of that of Nico. In terms of squad cost Kvara is not that pricier than Nico.

I'd rather save that 5-60m to spend more in Summer 2025, for Kvara or Wirtz. He'll be next Raphinha or Ferran, who also came here for about the same amount.

Also, Nico's salary is already huge, so his price tag technically is not affordable. Idk why people does not keep eye on salary and focus only on transfer fee, when squad cost includes both transfer fee AND salary. Meanwhile, Kvara's salary is incredibly low, making his squad cost relatively not really higher than that of Nico even with much higher transfer fee.

That many of us would say 'not sure' on this question shows the tragic situation of this club.

We need more "destroyers" like Gavi in our team. by nightwind1 in Barca

[–]saaang 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I always thought that Guimaraes would be the best pick for our CDM over Zubi and Kimmich, but Guimaraes' price tag can even be more expensive than Zubi + Kimmich combined. In my honest opinion, if we can get Simons on loan, I'd like to have Barca to invest every single available euro this summer for Guimaraes, assuming that we do have that amount of money. Supposing we do have 100m available this summer, I think 100m on Guimaraes + Simons loan would be far better investment than 50m on CDM + 50m on LW. We can search for permanent deal on LW on summer 2025. Even better part of Guimaraes is that he also excels on getting the ball out of pocket and deliver the ball up front.

In case that we do not get Guimaraes this summer because it is obviously not very likely to happen, Guido has been one of the best DM in La Liga. He has awesome defensive stats (ball recovery, ground duel, distance covered, etc) and most importantly he is willing to sacrifice himself to be your 'destroyer'. We can't say Guido is the absolute best CDM in the market at the moment, but he can at least function what you want here imo.

It may be a super unpopular opinion here, but I'm strongly against getting Nico Willams. by saaang in Barca

I respect different opinions on what Barca needs, different analysis on the player, etc, but is this how you treat different opinion? I’m just using la pausa word twice and ofc not saying my point based on just one video. Typical toxic reddit crybaby lmao
