Sporting vs Benfica are playing right now, due to the game being canceled. Can't watch right now but throwing it out there. Here's the link.

If they were going to sell Cesc, it should have been last summer in an effort to keep Thiago. He's still one of the best players in the world and is having a fantastic season so I'd certainly keep him unless he wants out for whatever reason. I think Tata will need to look into a 343 for next season to hopefully solve some of the systemic issues - he used it at Newells.
Deulofeu won't be sold, and I don't why they would even consider it. He's a massive talent, and has barely scratched the surface of his ability.

Ivanovic saves the EPL from a goalless first half across all games.

Can't stop scoring. Steal from Moscow.
West Brom can still salvage a draw. Most in the EPL currently (11). Southampton second with 9 ties.

Psk- you really don't like Deulofeu, huh? Because having seen him play, no way in hell barca should sell.

Ivanovic and Cech arguing on the pitch like they play for opposing teams...

Wow, Ivanovic looked mad but it looked like it was more to do with the touchline ref.

I don't think Cesc is going anywhere either. Song and Tello have to go this summer. Bring in a central midfielder and have Mascherano go back to defensive mid. I would be curious to see how Busquets and Masche do in a double pivot. Xavi running the show as normal but having Rafinha back him up, often.
Deulofeu would be nice too. I'm still not sure why Tello and Sergi Roberto were kept instead of Rafinha and Deulofeu. Tello struggles for playing time and Sergi seems like his isn't fitting well into the system we have right now. I know he is good when attacking players like Iniesta, not really from a Xavi-type of postition, so maybe he could roam in a 3-4-3 better?

He's been a "star" player since he was 9 years old & his ego was apparently huge then. I've personally watched his selfish play with the U19 Spanish teams which won the Euro's in 2011 & 2012. He'd admonish players for not passing him the ball & coaches when subbed off. He'd dribble right past open team mates. Talk trash on the field by asking opposing players if they wanted a pic & autograph after the match.
If 9 years of La Masia didn't teach him any sense of humility than I don't know what will. The part that kills me is that he won't pass if he thinks he can lead with the ball. I've heard talk that he will most likely stay at Everton for a second year.
Also logistically, where would be possibly play? Several players would most likely need to be off loaded. Hubris by his name got it tattoo'd across his forehead...

Sell him to Everton permanently with a buy-back option. Roberto will work magic.

I've read the plan was he would be on loan to Everton for 2 years, one if he played amazingly. He's been rehabbing back at Barcelona but I haven't read/heard anything about it.
