If Matt Law's article is anything to go by, that Marina had complete control about players coming in and out then I cant really fault him for relieving her from her position. I agree though, he could have actually used Petrs experience and knowledge. Hopefully Boehly will learn from this and see how tough it is and hire the right person for the job. For this transfer season though, we have to do with what we have now and pray it wont hurt us too much in the future

Thats the thing, Boehly is new in the footballing world so he has to make those new contacts with agents, players etc. Not very ideal when the squad needs rebuilding, but you just have to deal with it the best you can.

Well if he's willing to lower his wage demands then its plausible.

So basically Barca has to match or even top our offer, unless he is REALLY pushing for Barca. We will see...

Yup, had a strong start to last season but seemed to have dropped off.

I would just like to point out that Malang in my language means poor, dismal, unfortunate, jinxed.

Well if I remember correctly, there was a moment when Sarr just got subtituted on and made a stupid mistake... surprise! There was a shot of TT just having a right go at him, I honestly hope that Sarr was subtituted in just because of the fact that Colwill was injured.

Timo is ok, problem is he is making WC wages with subs bench quality.

Well better to really test out a back 4 in pre season than a real game. Lost the game in the first half where we were abysmal, second half a bit better but the players didnt seem to want to exert themselves too much. Arsenal also looked more prepared than we were. I believe if Broja was with the team, he would get more minutes than Michy. He and Colwill really have a chance of moving up the pecking order if they were actually available.

There's your formation change.. we were abysmal.

£120K p/w 🥲 Also I would love to see Colwill start for this one, very ideal... against a premier league team in a friendly.

Well tbf we did go for other players before him even when we had person terms agreed with him... which could be something he keeps in mind, him not feeling wanted is warranted and could see why he would delay the move here. Lets be honest, he was also one of the last names here aswell. And now him being one of the last ones available is what makes us a little desperate to land him. Personally for me, I wouldnt really mind which way this goes. If push comes to shove then we can try for Pavard based on the fact that to me he is a low risk move, available for under £30M if I'm not wrong and searching for first team football.

Nooo, we have to ask him if he wants to move here first lol

Ohhh Barca butthurt about Tuchels comments regarding them chasing Azpi and now they want to take revenge lol. Go for it then, spend more of that loaned money on players you dont desperately need, spend it and bank on FDJ leaving so that you can actually register those players.

No Sarr, no Barkley, no Michy, no Kennedy please.

The victim mentality is thick on this one... Lets be honest Barca is one of the biggest clubs in the world, a level we have not reached yet. They make so much more in revenue than we do and they also are a bigger brand than we are, thus giving them a better chance at generating even more money using their brand. It is not our fault nor is it other teams fault they are where they are now financially. That is the responsibility that falls solely on their board. Short term signings and huge wages are part of the problem. So instead of complaining about other teams financial muscle, maybe you should sort yourselves out. You are not some fckin relegation battle team, you are Barcelona its embarrassing!

Get Kounde in, then try and offload some deadwood sell/loan whilst scoping the market. Maybe there might be a sudden change in a players availability.

I would bet on our academy boys to do a job better than some of our fringe senior players.

Barca selling everything they have after seeing Madrid do the double. The thing is, they are not spending it wisely at all. Ps. I have friends who support Barca and I always mention the Spotify in Spotify Camp Nou to remind them that one of the most legendary stadiums, sold their soul.

I think if we also end up getting Pavard, I think we will be more open to letting Azpi and Alonso go. If its only Kounde then only Azpi. I havent really seen Pavard play so I dont really know his style.. can anyone here explain? Last time I saw him was when he scored that screamer in the WC lol

Is Baba still our player? damn. Bakayoko, Miazga, Barkley, Kennedy, Bats are on their last year of their contracts right? At least loan them out and pay a portion or none of their salaries.. best we can do. Lakaka contract till 2026 😭

Like previously stated.. Kennedy, Bats, Sarr have no future here.. they need to go ASAP loan/sell whatever just dont want to see them play a competitive match for us. Vale just won the U19 euros and didnt even get a spot here. Cmon TT

If that was supposed to promote football in the US, I would not be interested because that was boring AF.

These Barca news outlets are taking the United fans on a ride, going round in circles lol Also you would think that Barca would use the money from levers to payback some on the money they owe to their players.. but no.. spend spend spend.. and not smart spending too..

Reece proper blue through and through. Future Chelsea captain.
