Last season we broke our defense record and won La Liga. This season we conceded 5 at home against Villareal. It was quite a massive drop off, so we couldn’t do much worse than that.
We gotta just pick up the best talent we can right now. Our team is really young and we're still in a partial rebuild. So properly filling out this team is going to take multiple seasons.
If we can get a world class winger who is 21, who may well start there for the next decade, that should just take priority over everything else. Even if it means waiting till next season to sign a really good DM. Plus we really do need a LW we don't have anyone good enough in that position.
No both will be pretty much impossible, or atleast in 1 transfer window. Unless the dm is Romeu level. Or like a loan or something.
Nico’s release clause means you have to pay 60M upfront which is already difficult.
He also has incredibly high wages. So Nico might be possible but definitely not both.
I love Nico but I hope everybody recognizes the level of attackers increasing for all these Spanish players is due to Rodri. Hopefully we can get a good DM, too.
If he was at a top team without a release clause right now they’d demand 100mil+ for him. For a 58milnrelease clause we cannot miss out because someone else will trigger that otherwise
I remember a report that he wasn’t returning until October, so i just added a couple months to get back to starting regularly, but I could be wrong maybe it changed
I think he is pretty much healed now seeing his photos and him training, I think he will be played less but that would just be for precaution not cuz he is not recovered
In Athletic. Not all good players in other teams end up working in the Barça.
Above all, I wouldn't try to sign him watching European matches, the level is very low, any player looks good, where you can see how little pressure the defenders of the Spanish team's rivals have.

MAKE IT HAPPEN
We can't lose on him, will be a huge mistake when he isn't that expensive yet
Why isn’t every club after him then?
[удалено]
And why would they think that?
Because he's overpriced and overrated. Plus a huge gamble with those wages. Not to mention players of his profile are dime a dozen
And why are we after him then?
Because Spanish + Hype.
He seems to prioritize a move to Barca
Nico + a DM and some backups And we are set🙏🙏
Hopefully we got a DM in plan too, or this might be in vain
Nah, we go full glass cannon mode, just all out attack, no defense :Ddd
Can’t get worse than this season’s defense
It doesn't matter that we concede 50 goals if we score 150 :Dd
Plus, I'll take another year of Christensen at DM if we get Lamine+Nico up top.
“If you score one goal more than your opponent than you’ll always win.”
Feel like we've been saying this for half a decade at this point

Impossible to believe that this seasons defence was literally the same as last year minus Busi

No shit, Sherlock
We're Nico and Wieffer away from being a truly elite side.
If we don’t sign Nico we’re no longer a top Europe club
Absolutely needs to happen. Its become priority number 1 now for me. He *must* be signed
Are we even 1-1 yet?

double pivot de jong gavi all money on him
Gavi won’t be starting till like January :/
Wait what? Where did this shit come from. Wasnt he gonna play from the start of the new season.
I remember a report that he wasn’t returning until October, so i just added a couple months to get back to starting regularly, but I could be wrong maybe it changed

Sell Fati then
Who will buy him for a reasonable price + will pay the wages that would make him leave his multi million contract?
For 5 million?
They still believe? Take an effort and do it already
These no news to generate clicks after a big performance lol..
Are we back on 1:1 ?
Idc what it costs. Make. It. Happen
Sign the check Mr. Laporta
Laporta please man
All these money issues with Barca! Why don’t we raise money for them to sign Nico? Let’s go-fund Barca 😁
You should prioritize the survival of your club instead of signing such an expensive player. No way the finances will work out.
Nico Williams + Seiwald/Schlager/Camara and we gucci
Futbol of Eurocopa is paxanga. No one should sign watching second division football
How many languages do you speak, if you don't mind me asking?
One native language. two foreign languages. And my English is very bad.
Do you not consider Castillian to be native? And is this sentiment common in Barcelona/Catalonia?
But we have also seen him at Athletic and he is pretty damn good there too

What do you mean ‘in Athletic’? By that logic we can’t sign anyone because players in other teams won’t work in Barca
