Messi wants di Maria signed

And bench who, Rakitic or Neymar?

>>74314573
Reynes

>>74314573
rakitic has been pretty bad since 2015, they could sell him and plug in di maria instead

imo the problem isn't just in the midfield though. their backline has been getting exposed on the regular lately

>>74314548
neymar swap with di maria and wenger in. make it happen. easiest treble in history.

>>74314573
Either Gomes or Rakitic, both should leave and be replaced with Isco (who's unhappy at Halal) and di Maria

For those that don't want to read the article, it says he asked Sampaoli rather than Enrique to sign him, so take that as you will.

Barcelona can barely afford the current teams salary. I can't imagine them affording Di Maria who would want a huge salary too. Neymar or Messi will have to take a pay cut for that to happen and I highly doubt either one will be willing to do that

>>74314608
Rakitic makes more than di Maria right now. If di Maria wanted nothing but money he could go to China, if he wants to win the Champions League than Barcelona would be the way to go, plus he's friends with Messi

Seriously, why can't Barça see all they need is Verratti? He's the MAN for Barça.

>>74315326
>Valencia
What the actual fuck?

>>74314638
He will win the champions league with PSG though

>>74315314
Apparently during the game Iniesta said he saw Verratti as he successor

PSG would be pants-on-head retarded to let Verratti go, he's a top 3 midfielder in the world right now

>>74315578
Everybody has a price, also
>does well in Ligue A
>Top 3 in the world

>>74315692
>I don't watch the Champions League: the post

Nice """""""""""sport""""""""""""" you got there when a couple teams have all the money and buy up all the good players from other teams.

>>74314548

well Di Maria is unironically a million times better than Andre GOHOMEs or RakiSHIT
he could be really useful to the team

letting messi run the team (who they sign as manager, what players they keep or sell, how many fucking contract extensions and wage increases messi gets) is going to doom the club. shoehorning di Maria into this team is another waste of money waiting to happen.

best they can do is buy Veratti and sack Enrique. no more, no less.

>>74315702
lmao what a fucking idiot. In the span of two posts:

>>74315566
"Iniesta says Verratti is his successor"

>>74315692
"Lol he plays in Ligue 1, how can he be top 3"

>>74315796
I was quoting Iniesta, not agreeing with him

>>74315326
>>74315473
didn't Valencia fix their denbts after the chink bought them?

>>74314573
>>74314582

>>74315785

All missing the point. Barca buying Di Maria is a masterful move, because that means they'll never have to get torn to shreds by him every time they face him again. Messi operating on a different level.

it's funny how Barca prides themselves in their "GOAT" academy but resorts to buying the best players in the world after getting rekt

Tiago might be the last great player they produce desu

>>74315851
damn, messi playing 5d chess while the rest of la liga is playing checkers

really made me contemplate

buy bernardeschi

>>74315866
Name a team with more home-grown players in their prime of valdes, puyol pique busquets xavi iniesta messi

>>74315972
Also Pedro and Fabregas

>>74315566
>"When Verratti was down on the ground with an injury, I told Iniesta that Marco was his successor and he replied that he thought the same," Matuidi told France Bleu.

Does Matudi even speak Spanish?

>>74315972
>>74315996
Citing those players as proof of La Masia's current greatness is like Arsenal fans citing the Invincibles as evidence they're currently one of the most successful teams in the PL

Accurate and impressive a decade ago, absolutely, but mostly mediocrity since

>>74316070
Its a once in a lifetime thing. Don't hate on it cause its over, no other team has ever produced that much talent at one time.

>>74314573
rakitic

So Messi F. C. ?

>>74314548
pretty sure there'll be a clause he can't be sold to barca
