manpe 10,861 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 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!What point would it serve? Being the training ground to Barca? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Severinb 309 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 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!!!

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanSnake 1,211 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolayes 14,489 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 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######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 onceBUT hungry to become key starters.Make places much more competetive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,887 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 You mentioned that signing a player who would have an impact straight away would rule out De Bruyne.. realistically De Bruyne would be able to contribute a great deal to the first team if he played instantly. He is deadly from set pieces, can cross quite well, sees defense splitting passes and has great pace and trickery, so if we shift Mata to the midfield and play De Bruyne on the left wing, we will create more chances in the middle of the park due to Mata playing there and I reckon De Bruyne would be able to contribute a great deal on the left with his eye for goal and crossing.

Yeh incredible really...when we desperately needMore/better plays AVB instead buys an average English defender...and overpays for him as well, he better sign a second attacking player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get him this window and he stays and plays, then great.But unlikely to happen this window. Although he's raw, I agree he could give us an option on the left wing, allowing Mata the free role in the middle TorresDe Bruyne -- Mata -- Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melanicus 5,208 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I'm sure AVB will buy only one player this transfer window.It will be winger, so we can move Mata to midfield... Hazard probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
