Re: Arda Turan
Yeah, Turan seems to be over the moon in joining us he's been so happy and talking a lot about the club. I'm not going to say this is good business, as it isn't we all know, but I have to say I'm happy for him and who knows he may prove us wrong and offer something we need this season and may win another treble or at least CL (one can hope).

Turan is just fine up front, it's just Simeone's approach that made him look somewhat limited.

Couldn't be further from the truth.
With Turan and Rakitic both on the pitch,there is only one way we play.Greatest manager indeed.

Not a bad bit of business for them. Got rid of an aging player, that has limited skills, and replaced him with 2 younger guys with high potential and didn't have to spend a dime over what they sold Arda for.
Valencia have bought Mustafi and Otamendi for the Mathieu money last season. Barca. DAT generousness towards the league.
My question is
Would you guys be happy with Ferreira Carrisco, Vietto, Otamendi, and Mustafi over Turan and Mathieu? lol
Hell yeah I would be. Don't know who that Carrasco guy is but Otamendi and Mustafi are beasts & Vietto is a very promising young lad I wanted us to sign earlier as well. Mathieu is bang average (didn't like him from the very start) and Turan's good but old (especially in comparision with Vietto) and expensive af.

Re: Arda Turan
Arda Turan says Messi "is the best player in the world".
In his first public appearance since signing for Barcelona, it finally sank in for Turan that he had at last made it to his dream club. The Turk had words of praise for Barcelona star Lionel Messi, describing him as the best player in the world, ahead of Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo.
"Messi is the best footballer in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo is good too, but he will never be like Messi", Arda Turan said of his new teammate. (The usually when a new player signs with Barca or Madrid)
Asked about the difference between managers Luis Enrique and Diego Simeone, he said "With Luis Enrique I still have to work a bit to be able to compare, but Simeone was very special for me and will always have a special place in my affections. It was great fun working with him and I'm sure it will be the same with Luis Enrique".
Arda denied that he had ever felt tired at Atlético because of excessive physical effort. "I have always liked to suffer in order to win, and now I am coming to a new system of play, I am going to change and I hope to adapt. At Atléti I was successful because I worked hard, and I am going to do that here".

'Enrique turning Barca into a more versatile, capable of adapting to every situation side' sounds way better imo.

No, Rakitic-Arda can't play possession, only counter. With Xavi out and Arda in we are losing versatility.

Re: Arda Turan
If there's no Iniesta on the pitch I'd rather see
----------------Busi--------------
---------Raki---------------------
------------------------Messi-----
--Arda-------Suarez-----Neymar
Rakitic's passing is sublime, I think with Busi and Messi around we would be just fine keeping possession. Though I agree that with Xavi no longer there we are losing a lot. It's time to introduce Samper.

Already thinks he will bench Rakitic. The lulz if Pogba arrives
That moment we find out we could of got Gundogan, Reus and Pogba but Lucho shot the deals down because they have never played in the GOATleague
I read a headline today that Bart said Lucho doesn't want Pogba. I didn't read the details though. So it could be a misinterpretation.

That's a very important point. Last season some of us fans were unhappy that the team usually played with a counter-attacking style but we were still capable of reverting to our possession based style as and when needed and when we did that we could still be better than almost anyone else.

Apparently Gundogan was as good as ours, was even in Barcelona to hold talks. It was Lucho himself that shot thst down, apprently he rates Turan more

Re: Arda Turan
That's just awful and this signing is ridiculous.
That being said people are talking about Gundogan like it's 2012. Has anyone seen him since then really? And he's still a pretty big risk as far as his injuries go. Would I prefer to have him to Arda? Of course! Do I rate him as a player? I was a big fan, as everyone was, back during Dortmund's CL run.
I haven't seen him since though and he had an injury that kept him out of football a (relatively) hella long time, so I'm wary about talking about him like he's this sure thing that would have slotted right in and been a good player for us.
Ultimately I would have taken the risk, but I can understand why one might not.

Re: Arda Turan
I think its a risk from our point of view, as fans.
But it is relatively simple in this day and age to collect all of each and every one of Gundogen's games this season and analyse the player he is today. So if im someone in charge of making transfer decisions, I wouldnt call it a risk any more than any other player with a big injury in their past.
Not really a disagreement with your post, so much as adding some thoughts.

Re: Arda Turan
So Barca bought Arda for more than Arturo Vidal who was apparently available. I've never particularly rated Vidal and his CL final performance confirmed that he's a headless chicken who just kicks people all over the place. Don't like a character who drives drunk with his family either. But surely he's still a better footballer than Arda.

I'd say they're on the same level and if I got to choose I'd pick Arda again

Re: Arda Turan
How you all pretty boys doin'?
I have to say I'm beginning to worry about Samper's Barca future. An anti-cantera Prez plus a coach who can't look past tier2 LL players. If he continues to prefer Scruberto, I'm afraid we'd lose Samper to City when the Baldie's appointed next summer.
Edit: Sorry, I meant this post to be in the TR thread.

Re: Arda Turan
I'd take Vidal over Turan.
I don't even know what position is suppose to be Turan's best, lol. I surely don't think he should play as the type of midfielder Barca needs/uses.

Re: Arda Turan
Vidal is much better than Arda.
Arda looks better, he is technically more refined if you want to say that...but overall, Vidal is better.
Better physically, tackles, runs, dribbles, has occasional moments of great skill. He is a little too loose with the ball on occassion but aside from that...he is a fine midfielder if you make sure he is around genuine creators.
Plus Vidal can play many more positions.

Kicking around everybody is being good physically now? They're on the same level in every aspect, there's nothing special about Vidal besides that he's a major asshole.

I know that Arda ain't no saint either and as I said they're pretty much on the same level in every aspect, that is kicking around everybody too. But they're equal and Vidal ain't "much better". Maybe at driving he is tho.
