El Profesor 1,457 Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Letting Suárez leave because he doesn't have enough athleticism to impose himself in Champions League's big games just to sign Aguero a year later kinda sums up why Barcelona is in decline. They have very little in long-term planning. I mean, Aguero will probably score lots of goals in La Liga. The problem is the continental stage. The Bayern disaster showed that this team badly needs more athleticism to be competitive in Europe. Resisiting the urge to add big names and being patient to rebuild should be Laporta's priority.

The main problem they have is they’re virtually bankrupt and without the ESL, they’re going to need some creative accounting and bargaining to dig them out.

Wanting to play alongside Messi. Seems he was willing to take less to play for Barcelona than other offers he received. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still exceptionally good and has the skill to score goals anywhere he goes. Couple that with Messi and hopefully a rebuild project at Barcelona and maybe it works for them.

El Profesor 1,457 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 I think Aguero can be a good signing for Barcelona as long as he arrives as a squad player. On the other hand, if he comes with the guarantee of being an undisputed starter then it´s problematic. Aguero, at this stage of his career, is a guy that should be used against smaller teams in La Liga or when you need a goal in the end of a match, but not as a starter in the biggest matches of the season. Depay is also expected to join Barcelona on a free transfer. I love the signing for Barça. Memphis developed into a very good player at Lyon. I love him as a 9, kinda reminds me of Roberto Firmino. Not your typical striker, but with his talent, creativity and vision, he generates lots of chances for his team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas 3,825 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 One of the best ever foreign imports to grace our league. Simple. He will be missed. I hope he can stay reasonably injury free and rediscover some form at Barca. I think at this stage in his career, he should be more of a better fit there than at Pep's City with their workrate off the ball. It's not Aguero's game. You never know, it might be a masterstroke like Suarez to Atletico was, especially if he links well with Messi. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Batard 2,534 Posted May 31, 2021 Administrator Share Posted May 31, 2021 As far as transfer strategies go, getting rid of Luis Suarez because of his age and then getting a player the same age as Suarez at the time of selling him is just so silly. I get they can’t actually buy players because they’re so needing a financial miracle, but their business this summer is not that of a club seeking to challenge for major sporting honours.
