Since none of us have a crystal ball to gaze into and tell the future, let's wait and watch. A LOT can change in two years.

Guys whats up with the neymar rumours??

So €45M + Ibra €8 + Caceres €3M + Bojan €10M + Jeffren €6M + Keirrison €4M + Hleb €2M + Milito €2M
Henrique is on loan. Some players went for free. Maxwell or Keita could be sold.

That is €80M for transfers.
Sanchez cost €26M (Ibra's money for next year will cover variables for next year)
So now €54M left if we sell all these players, even if we do not sell Keirrion, Hleb and Milito we will have €46M. Wat is enaugh for Fabregas.
I hope that we will sign Botia for €2M.

He won't. I give 0 chances to Romeu to become better than Busquets. He is 3 years younger than Busquets and he has great physical tools to be a DM, but in terms of quality, technique, passing, composure... will never reach Busquets. Having said this, he is a very good and complete player. The type of player that excelss Chelsea, a physical monster with good techinque.

I think that 5 million, if we keep a buy-back clause and a % of a future sell is a good sell. If we only keep a buy-back clause it's allso very good, as we can sign him if he does well and resell him.

Or not. Our forwards need to score, and Sanchez doesn't seem to score a lot. I think we will need more firepower to sorround Messi than Sanchez + Pedro. I can see Bojan coming back and starting a lot. Wait and see him outscore Sanchez every season in Calcio.

So we are going to sell Villa now and sign Aguero?
LOL xD

I hope almost as much as I hope that Barca does well that Bojan does really well. I really want him to come back. This kid is Senor Gol, he is made of goals.

However, Sanchez's role isn't to purely score goals Free. I think the idea is he is a different option to the two hardworking poachers, Pedro and Villa.

Yes, but a forward that doesn't score it is of no use at Barça. Either he starts banging them in, or he will be a Hleb 2.

That was directed to me?
I was talking about 2 years into the future. I don't think Villa will be starter with 32 years old.

Gil wrote:Lol we're not Stoke City ffs no chance we'll insert a buy back clause if the rumours are true.

Btw how good is Romeu. What's his playing style like?

Romeu is a physical beast, with great positioning and defensive abilities. Not fast though. Is a DM but can also play as CB. Has a good distribution of the ball, but not at the level of the classic Barça number 4's such as Busquets. I think he can do well for Chelsea, he is quite a Chelseaesque player.

OK I admit I don’t really follow Serie A but just how true is the Sanchez can’t score thing?
He’s just 22 after all. So much room for improvement.

P.S.
I was really sad Romeu left.
I always liked the kid

Not to you, just thining about that. Sell Villa for €50M to City and buy Aguero for €40M

He's not gone yet... in fact I reckon this rumour could be bullshit.

Although, I don't mind. He'll never be as good as Busi, and when I saw Fontas at DM he was better than Romeu actually.

He’s under 20 so it’s too early to say what will become of him.
Anyway let’s’ wait and see if he actually signs

By jove cholla, they were right about Cesc also. That's what Arsenal have confirmed - just one offer of E29m. They might have missed the variable component which means the exact same amount. We need to follow what these guys say carefully as they seem to talk more sense than most others.

Excellent summary. I am astonished you remember all that so vividly.

he will comeback trust me

anyway, according to spanish newspapers, Romeu's deal is the following:

Chelsea will have to pay 5M euros. Barcelona will have an option to buyback Oriol Romeu from Chelsea for 8m euros over the next 2 years.


gd deal imo, we can have a replacement for Villa & Masch ready in 2 years now

More Rumours:

- Barcelona are still interested in signing goalkeeper Esteban Andrada (20) from Argentinean club Lanus.

- Barcelona have offered to sign Boca Juniors forward Sergio Araujo on loan for the B-team, with a buy option.

Andrada is a very promising talent, hopefully the rumors are true and he makes the cut. Goodness knows we need a good keeper.

Araujo on the other hand is not a good idea. I don't think he will be a good striker. Ferreyra(River plate) would be better or we should heavily consider getting Iturbe from Porto

We have a good keeper, his name is Valdes and I'd happily take him to the Argentine Nt if I could

Lol when I meant "we" I meant Argentina NT lol
Valdes=win, heavily underrated imo

So true man. Quite a few times I have thought Valdes should have been Argentine.
