Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 30m? seriously? seriously? wtf is wrong with his world?30m euros. Thats like 21m pounds and that's not anything Ridiculous for a proven winger who still has a lot in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toli 977 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 30m euros. Thats like 21m pounds and that's not anything Ridiculous for a proven winger who still has a lot in him.he has been mediocre for 2-3 years. 30 m for a bench-warmer is definetely a lot of money. Also he'll be 28 in a few months, so there isnt much progression or re-sell value in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhesusReus 219 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 30m euros. Thats like 21m pounds and that's not anything Ridiculous for a proven winger who still has a lot in him.still has what? What does he offer? We are not missing a Pedro from the puzzle. Pool together the 28 million we paid for Cuadrado and the 21 million we are about to pay for Pedro, throw in another 10m and that gets you any world class (I'm talking top of the food chain) attacker.We are just messing about now. We are really close. let's just push the car over the hill and enjoy the ride, rather than waiting to hitchhike on the cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacquiao 1,834 Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 do people really expect this to happen in the summer. i dont give it a chance. barca literally have no other option except for MSN for the front 3 positions. they will not sell pedro until they get turan and vidal in jan. they have Munir and Sandro both who have been told they will be part of the 1st team squad next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucio 5,418 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 they have Munir and Sandro both who have been told they will be part of the 1st team squad next seasonRafinha as well ? I think he's a winger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 So we're about to sign Aranguiz and Pedro for combining 50m€ fee. We will get more from sales on top of own money. Hmm who is this big player that we're saving money for ?Don't get me wrong, Pedro is a good player, better right-winger than Mata, KdB, Salah, Schurrle, CUADRADO and anything like Douglas Costa or Enner Valencia we've been linked with.But it again smells me yet another "cheaper alternative" and I dislike it very, very much. Again paying over the top for cheaper option while we can't go over the top for top quality.Pedro is the kind of signing that I settle with in the last days of transfer window after hard effort to get Reus, Griezmann, Isco, Sterling etc. Not now. His clause is there and it won't get away.He's way better than Cuadrado so can't say no to him but feel we're missing the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strike 7,489 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Underwhelming if true. I am hoping for a better attacking player. Sterling, Isco, Griezmann... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didierforever 7,349 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 they have Munir and Sandro both who have been told they will be part of the 1st team squad next seasonmunir and sandro played some matches in the start of the last season as well (neymar injured and suarez banned). both were less than impressive. barca would be crazy selling pedro with no quality backup.Rafinha as well ? I think he's a wingerhe is a CM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jype 6,398 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Haven't really watched Barca lately but I'd take the Pedro of a couple years back without thinking twice.Even if his form has been bad recently, it's understandable because he hasn't been playing regularly enough. Just think Cesc at Barca and then at Chelsea, huge difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supporter 3,088 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 According to SPORT or "Don Balon" the signing of Pedro Rodriguez to join us is totally done. They say that Jose has personally called Pedro Rodriguez to convince him and in the next hours / days will become official (although the signing could be announced after the election for president of Barcelona, next week).The clause of Pedro Rodriguez were 150 million euros, but after his last renewal of the contract, the clause is now 30 million euros (21.50 million pounds)."SPORT" also says that Pedro has spoken with Fabregas to ask him about London and Chelsea, and that this conversation has finally convince him.To me Pedro Rodriguez is not exactly what we need and I would like that we finally did not sign him. Good player, but I prefer another kind of player.But if we will finally signed him, Pedro Rodriguez is a good player to complete our squad ... but not our starting eleven.Regards.

mediator 2,026 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 That would be some team !----------- Courtois -----------Azpi - Ivan - Terry - Luis------- Cesc - Matic ---------Pedro -- Willian -- Hazard------------ Costa ------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy. 2,742 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Interesting, i would be happy with this at £22 million Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidzeret 2,257 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Great buy for 20m. I'd rate him on the same level as Alexis Sanchez.Only downside is, with this signing, there is no way Griezman is coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
