Re: Suarez to Barcelona - Official
Now, if you put Mascherano in that midfield of Busquets and Rakitic with a front line of Bitey/Iniesta, Messi and Neymar as the attacking the third, that may actually, genuinely, maybe work for Barcelona.
While Rakitic would never be anywhere as awesome as Mushroom man Xavi, he is still quite good as a central midfielder. Seriously, if Barcelona can invest in two solid enough centre backs and Lucho gets his team to defend in a team oriented way (takes a team to actually defend, not just a back four), I would genuinely be worried about Barcelona.
If all this remains the same, Futbol's posturing wouldn't do much but provide a nice read. Barcelona would be no different than last season.
Would still beat Real Madrid sadly but that isn't a big deal these days.

Doc, pls. Luis Enrique is Pep on steroids. The pressing game will be back for sure, this ain't even a question.
Centerbacks is a different story.

If Lucho can convince, no, can make Barcelona get back into the pressing unit that was highly chitting annoying, pretty sure he can get Barcelona to go take out a loan or rob a bank to finance 2 more solid centre backs.

Don't call me James wrote:We've got the better player from Soton and paid less. I don't know why your boasting about your transfer window when in reality it's been just as shit as ours.
This is so wrong on so many levels.
Hilariously wrong

Re: Suarez to Barcelona - Official
Club president Bartomeu said his fee will be revealed when he's presented but it's lower than 85M Euros.
Now you can be polemic and believe he's lying, Nerman etc. blabla. But realistically he is telling the truth. Mainly because of the Nerman incident. And secondly because he didn't lie about Nerman to begin with. They just didn't reveal some of the 3th party ownership related stuff. Does Suarez have that kind of stuff attached to him?
I think it's € 81M as reported by the Catalan press and Sky. Everyone else reporting € 94M was just copying rumours from each other.
DAT bargain.

I wouldn't actually call 81 million a bargain. Still a whole lot of money to spend on a player that probably wasn't necessary to have in the first place.

Why would Liverpool sell below his release clause when the club's managing director Ian Ayre came out and said we wanted to keep him and we did everything we could to keep him but our hands were tied since the release clause was activated?

From what I read is that we paid a smaller fee somewhere around 70-85m and paid the rest in yearly installments but these could just be rumors like every other post so far, would make sense why the transfer fees don't match up.

Re: Suarez to Barcelona - Official
Barcelona icon Johan Cruyff has hit out at the Catalans for their decision to sign Luis Suarez from Liverpool and feels they are moving away from the style of play that brought them unrivalled success in recent years.
The Uruguay international - who will not be allowed to play for Barcelona until October 26 due to suspension - is set to sign a five-year deal with the Camp Nou side after both clubs reached an agreement over a transfer fee of €88 million.
Club president Josep Maria Bartomeu said he was relishing the prospect of watching Suarez, Neymar and Lionel Messi in Barca'a attack next season, but Cruyff believes the 27-year-old is another individual talent who will take the team further away from the style in which they played under Pep Guardiola and Fran Rijkaard.
"I am happy that Germany won the World Cup. They are playing the kind of football that Barcelona are distancing themselves from," Cruyff wrote in his column for De Telegraaf.
"That feeling has only gotten stronger with the signing of Luis Suarez. He is a great player, but has a complicated character.
"I don't know how they plan to play free-flowing attacking football with Messi, Neymar and Suarez in one team. They are all players who rely on their individual actions.
"Barcelona choose for individualism rather than a team playing good football. The style of play they developed under Frank Rijkaard and Pep Guardiola is being abandoned."
Suarez will travel to Barcelona this week to undergo his medical before signing a contract until June 2019.

I agree with Cruyff. Barca need to flank Messi with Pedro and Cuenca if they want to achieve success.

>Thinks he knows it all
>Doesn't know much
He signed a new contract after last summer WITH a release clause. There was no release clause before. If you really want to start this again...

Didn't Henry reveal after the transfer window that there WAS a release clause and Arsenal had activated it, but he flat out refused to heed Suarez' plea to leave? Talk about not knowing anything....

“Luis Suarez is the top scorer in the English Premier League which is arguably the top soccer league in the world,” said Henry.
“And he had a buy-out clause - I don't know what degree I should go into this - but he had a buy-out clause of £40million - more than 60 million (US) dollars. So Arsenal, one of our prime rivals this year ... they offered £40million and one pound for him and triggered his buy-out clause.

Go read the thread when this news iniatially broke out. Not worth timing when we've been through this before...

Re: Suarez to Barcelona - Official
tbh I wonder if some Barca fans still complain about this deal.
He was taken not only because he is better than Sanchez, but probably in this moment he is better also than Messi not in his prime anymore .
I think the discussions about " Messi is resting for WC " were useless. Simply Messi is not to his past levels, he can still be a difference maker because the talent is enourmous, but not with same consistency.

The complaints about Suarez, never had anything to do with his talent.
