⚽️THE FOOTY THREAD: PSG v Bayern

[Coupé It]

Bunny killed this, now I’m back in my feelings... SMH

 

[jape]

so is bruno gonna be a barca player?
i don't believe any of this... haven't been paying much attention since the kobe news

id rather not get rodrygo....just save the dough for this summer.
this whole season has been trending downwards. barca don't deserve any trophies this szn
this board is always a step behind and reactionary. the valverde switch should've happened in the summer like everyone asked for. with suarez injured, this season is a wash and that's ok.

barca generate so much money now that this board feels it always has to spend it
bortemeu is trying to save his legacy but ruining the club for the future

 

[jape]

luis figo and CR7 must have the same publicist

 

[jape]

 

[jape]

at least they are doing more than italy

Agree jape barca should just wait towards summer, Bart deff running the club with his own self interest in mind.

I don't even care anymore about signings.. even if we manage to get Bruno, it won't change anything. Too much being put into his transfer in terms of pressure and expectations. It's completely unfair to the player. This team needs 5-6 players not one MF. The fact they left it this late and are seemingly willing to take any body for CF says plenty as well.

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Rodrigo would have the same issues at Barca that Griezmann does

 

[Beans]

I love/d Griezmann, but him going to Barca never made complete sense.

 

[jape]

if the plan is to get rodrygo on loan then bring back bruno in the summer, then go after neymar or laturo....then im with it. that's not a bad plan given the circumstances.
still need a cb though...pique is finally fully washed.

suarez was involved with 40% of barca's goals so you see the logic in signing a striker but he's not the right one.

i still like the griezmann transfer...its just a rough patch right now cause barca basically has to start preseason over
but MSG was finally starting to click. griez looked great and he settled in nicely then the manager change then suarez is gone who opened a lot up for him

at least this board is doing something though... i feel for you united fans whose board seems to be chilling. like vacationing on the titanic.

I told Jape this 1000x times during the Summer. Neymar should have been the priority.

 

[Coupé It]

Bro, Andre Gomes is already back training after having that gruesome compound fracture just a few months ago.......

I’ve been saying this for year, when it comes to medical treatment....Europe is on a whole OTHER level...

neymar wasn't happening. it's not like i was in favor of griez over neymar. more like water under the bridge time to move on.
barca tried
psg wanted like 280

how long has it been? this is crazy.


so what are your thoughts on bruno to barca?
could it be mendes trying to use barca to get the united deal?

PSG would have folded for 180-200 million....but yea, water under the bridge. The move made no sense from a footballing point of view. Fully expect Greiz to be somewhere else soon.

Just checked - the compound fracture on his ankle was on November 4th. Just two and half months ago

These Euro doctors are on a whole other level man....



My thoughts on Bruno are mute because the reports say he’d go to straight to Valencia. I know much more about about Barça than Valencia.

For conversation sake tho, if he went to a Barcelona directly, I don’t think it’d be a good fit, better fit would be RM.

The English game is much more his style. But it also depends on where Barça would play him.

really feels like deco 2.0
but barca would probably use him in the left side CAM role that coutinho was actually purchased for and the void that iniesta left.
no expects him to play like iniesta but how deco used to play. good box to box midfielder with a constant threat from outside the box.

Deco was a much better dribbler and more technical tho. He fit that Barça system perfectly.

Bruno isn’t the greatest technical player, he’s good not great. If I was to compare to him to player, it’d be faster/quicker Frank Lampard with more flair. Both players have amazing vision, longball and thru ball capabilities with a great eye for goal.

Barça don’t play like that.I don’t remember Barça having a player like that in the midfield.

 

[Coupé It]

Bruno on RM would be a problem if they pulled the trigger. Him With Valverde and Casmeiro covering would be the perfect spot for him to flourish.

 

[Coupé It]

Also jape I don’t think it’s Mendes pulling strings to put the pressure on United...

Mendes doesn’t have that type of influence in Catalonia, and he doesn’t have Barça connections. These reports are straight from Catalan sources.

Also Mendes isn’t even really his agent, he’s got another agent. Mendes is just trying to help.

Odegaard

 

[Coupé It]

Odegaard

yea I don’t disagree, y’all are full of talent. Odegard is a 10 tho. Bruno is more of an 8/10 hybrid who never stops running. Just hypothetically speaking, Bruno and Valverde would be all out in your grill for 90 mins but Bruno would be a bigger goal threat, that’s a huge bonus to engine types of players.

Ode’s not like that. They’re different types of players. Regardless y’all have plenty of options

But I was excited to see Bruno RM rumors last summer, guess that died.

 

[Verde Shuttles]

We need turn Isco & James minutes into a more consistent player, which is probably VDB, I still think Modric is gone that's who Ødegaard will replace, also think we should turn two of our winger spots, (We have7 wingers and Kubo on loan) into another midfielder.

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Multiple reports that the Bruno - Man U deal is finally done

Thank God, tired of that story tbh

Bro I’ve been tired of this story since June 1st

 

[swerve]

Ready for Bruno to consistently give away possession for United
