Sport and Mundo Deportivo are Bartomeu's (who's called Fartomeu on barcaforum) mouthpieces, even Marca is more reliable.

Sorry - I thought that in the post that I was replying to you said that we had been 'pussyfooting around' - my bad if I got that wrongNever have or ever would imply we've 'pussyfooted around'!! This year's, and to a slightly lesser extent last year's, transfer dealings have been top class and clearly show a clearly defined mindset of how we wish the club to progress.
My minor concern is that we are still somehow perceived as collecting the scraps left by the old brigade and I believe a concerted and achievable Mbappe bid will, like PSG have done with the purchase of Neymar, truly show that we are there for the long term and will be the club that they aspire to be in the coming years!!!
No permanent damage done!!!Sorry - I thought that in the post that I was replying to you said that we had been 'pussyfooting around' - my bad if I got that wrong
PTSD can be horrible if left untreated.No permanent damage done!!!
So you're saying we should keep these kids and give them game time at City on one hand, then saying that they will contribute to 'defeat after defeat after defeat' at Girona on other? Is that not saying therefore that they are not currently at the required level to prevent Girona suffering these repeated defeats? Therefore are they at the required level to perform for us?
Look I'm all for developing talent and bringing the kids through, but not just for the sake of it and certainly not if it risks my own teams quest for titles and trophies.
Great player, amazing talent and lot of promise for future.
However 160 or 180 mil is just mind blowing. Neymar went for 200 and Mbappe has not achieved anywhere near what Neymar has.
I hope we can get him for under 100 mil. I rate him and Ousmae Dembele between 80 - 90 mil and that is a fair price as they are both young and have a lot to prove.
Just hope we don't pay 160 mil for him. We can get 3 or 4 quality players for that amount :(
