The "Second" signing

[Idiot 71]

What I hope that it doesn't happen is that we sign another 18-19 year old and dump him in the reserves, loan him out or put him on the bench...(except if they are Neymar, Sergi Roberto and Gotze )

made my day. I wouldnt be suprised if even players like gotze would be loaned out to other teams to gain premier league experience.... so sad to see chelsea transfer actions in recent years..

Gotze is already good right now, He'd be a starter and will only get much better. He's only 19, Scary how good he could be!!

I wouldn't mind seeing us signing Götze tbf... I think he could be ten times better than Mesut Özil

AVB should use his barca connections to get thiago and let barca have the same buy back option that oriol has

That would be a dream come true!

[rantdeville 195]

We, as a club, are AWFUL with transfers. Does anyone else feel that way, too? Don't get me wrong, some are great signings...but the ratio of those greats to the fails is not very strong at all lol

What point would it serve? Being the training ground to Barca?

The point would be us getting one of the best young playmakers and we can keep him even if barca want him back!

But we give them the feeling they still have something to say!!!

And what makes you believe we can keep hold of Romeu? Barca say one thing, AVB says the other... who to trust? And having a temperamental catalan who wants to go back to his boyhood club, won't be an easy task. Doubt Barca would let him leave without a definite buy-back clause where we don't have a say.

Isn't it obvious? The next signing has already been to the Bridge, and even had a kick around with Torres and Frank. His name? Wel...

It's Justin Bieber

in general agree ,,we sign very young not ready for the squad or players frankly past their peak.

Luiz has been an exception to this ..I would like to see signings in the age range 21 - 24 ready to take places as squad players at once

BUT hungry to become key starters.Make places much more competetive

who said Oriol was temperamental???

[manpe 10,861]

I'm talking about Thiago

[zolayes 14,489]

my apologies then ...but it wasn't clear from your post.

[eldo 868]

I don't think thiago is catalan.

[manpe 10,861]

I don't think thiago is catalan.

you're right, he was born in Italy and lived most of his life in Spain, but not catalan.
