Can't just have 11 players and that's it, the sarcastic comments don't cover up the fact are squad is massively lacking depth compared to last season when we had no CL football. 42 minutes ago, Laylabelle said: Thing is not always going to be lucky with injuries either. Guess more chance for other players to step up but still. If goes wrong conte be the one with the blame.. A lot of those players were not even on our bench. Our width right now is below average. Two players would make it acceptable, three good and four great. Considering that the party line has been four new signings the whole time, then we should be ok. The club signed four players in July, no reason why they cant do it in August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, can you stop fucking crying? We have won the league twice in the last three seasons, and we have bought three great players (including a club record). Your complaining don't even make sense. You are complaining about how we have no width, which suggests you were more pleased when we still had players such as Chalobah, RLC and Ivanovic. Those players were average, and at worst the new players we will get are average as well. Status quo doesnt really change, does it? We will have a group of really good players, with some average to good rotation options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,871 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 If people want a yard stick as to where we need to be and the depth that's required then look at the Bayern bench v Liverpool tonight. Coman, Kimmich, Vidal, Sanches and that's just to name a few. If we want to be at that level we need to stop fucking about with middle of the road enquiries like Drinkwater. Depth, depth, depth, depth, depth, depth or drowned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faced with this position, the Club has informed them they refer to the buy-out clause of his existing contract which as of 1 July totals 222 million euros which will have to be deposited in its entirety. Furthermore, in reply to the claim for the contract extension bonus, the Club has once again made it clear that the amount remains deposited with a notary until the case is resolved. The player remains under contract at FC Barcelona but with temporary permission to not take part in training sessions. world gone mad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,381 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Just can't understand it from any angle except for Neymar wanting more money. Joining a nothing league and a a club that are basically the Man City of France. No one really cares about PSG outside of France. They have no better chance of winning the CL than Barca do. I could understand if he went to another historically giant club like Milan/Juve/Bayern, but PSG? They'll win their weak league by 30 points and every season will be seen as a total failure unless they win the CL. I mean, they had Zlatan scoring bonkers numbers and they still didn't get that close to winning it. Were Barca just unwilling or unable to pay anywhere close to what PSG are offering him in wages?

I think he doesn't want to be in Messi's shadow anymore, in PSG and even whole France league, he will be the main star. Although I also can't understand his decision, of course he will receive more money, but If I were him, I'd never go from one of biggest team in the world and playing with the likes of Messi, Suarez and Iniesta to PSG and weaker league. But wathever is said, this deal is huge and will be remembered for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
