Rumor: Mission Impossible: Replacing Infinito ∞ | The 2018-19 Transfer Thread

Supposed rumours we are in talks with two strikers !!

Morata and a MYSTERY one !!


Ibra returns !!!!

 

Morata? Don't see it. Chelsea are in dreamland as evident from them rejecting Sevilla's €50mn offer for Morata. Not that Barca couldn't offer more money than Sevilla, but he's just not Barca quality.

One rumor which sounds a bit more plausible given Kane's injury is Malcom to Spurs on loan for the rest of the season. Actually, I would like to see that happen. If Barca get kicked-out of CdR this week, I don't see Malcom playing at all. Spurs, meanwhile, are involved in 4 competitions atm.

 

I wouldn't bother with former Madrid or Portuquese players after Turan and Gomes, too much of a risk of getting conned or getting a saboteur. I mean Turan comes here and the next day he says that he came because he didn't want to run anymore. And with Gomes, well we all saw what Gomes did. Luckily Semedo seems to be all Barca though.

 

you saying Gomes deliberately sabotaged his own Barca career?

 

People do things for money, can't really explain his actions otherwise.

 

Local radio saying ManU are shipping Fellaini out and are gonna go for Coutinho.,

or maybe they're just debating between pizza or Chinese food for dinner?

 

It's also giving Gomes more credit than he's probably capable of.

 

No. That doesn't explain his actions.

 

I agree that money played a part in his actions...
His price tag.
He felt enormous pressure having to live up to the €35 million base fee while another €20 million was on the line based on his performances. And he had to perform at Camp Nou, the highest capacity futbol ground in Europe.
He couldn't cope, admitted his struggles and had the players' backing.
Some players can handle such pressure, other cannot. There's the conspiracy theory in a nutshell.

 

Meanwhile got rid of Paco who plays a position where Barca has zero depth.

That said, too early to give up onMalcom. Should just send him out on 6 month loan imo.

 

It's incredible over the last few years how many players we have signed who then hardly play for us. Staggering. Malcolm is just another in a l8ng line. And in Coutinho we have paid €140 million for a sub.

 

I think its somewhat normal for big clubs though. Hard to say which team "wastes" the most amount of money this way without conducting a lengthy analysis. We have been quite lucky with injuries this season too (at the forward positions, anyway), but it was also a lot of money to spend on Malcom when there was always going to be at least 3 forwards ahead of him in the pecking order, not even counting Suarez, with no real chance of Malcom surpassing any of them in the short term no matter what he did.

 

I think, Malcolm, like Mina is simply a business proposition for the club, a lot of teams want him and will pay more than we did for him, quick profit. It's all the modern game is about.

 

Barca confirms activation of buy back clause, Guangzhou Evergrande signs Paulinho for €42 million.

 

Did you guys just see who Barca have loaned? I'm baffled!

 

Ibra !!??

Edit

Kevin-Prince Boateng, is a German-Ghanaian professional footballer who plays for Italian club Sassuolo. A midfielder who can also play as a forward, Boateng is known for his strength, footspeed and ball-juggling tricks...
