I think we can all agree on the fact that we need a winger with bags of pace etc to bring something we have been lacking and theres plenty of names being mentioned, Lavezzi, Hazard, Robben, Ribery, etc, etc....
Ive given this some serious thought and he is potentially the best option out there in terms of age, fee required and quality combined. Im not so naive to think that hes going to be easy to pry away from barca by any means, but with sanchez' arrival, villa being deployed out wide, adriano and Affelay (when he returns from injury) fighting for a place and players such as Tello breaking through all for two positions it seems they have it covered if they were to loose a player. He has already fallen down the pecking order with sanchez arriving.
He has everything we require, speed, skill, drive to get forward, crosssing (a rarity in barca's game but whenever i have seen him cross its always got to its target), he doesnt have a weak foot (for years i always thought he was left footed and after doing some research it turns out he is naturally right footed and just has two equally telented feet), he can strike and finish a ball and has a very good eye for a pass.
Estimated transfer fee- between £25 and 30 million i reckon.
I have overlooked him so many times, and (now regretably) even commented about us buying elia, i maintain elia is a quality player who just needs to establish himself but he and pedro are a million miles apart.
What do you guys reckon? Is pedro the missing link?

Was thinking this the other day myself. Pedro would be a great player, I'd take him in a heartbeat.

After some checking it looks like he's picked by Guardiola often enough and loves being at Barca. His release clause is astronomical.

+1

Sensible and reasoned opinion on Bluemoon, ban hm. :p

I fully agree and most of my reasoning was just taken this second from op's post.
I think if we could get him, we should defo.

I doubt Tottenham would let Bale go to us. But a club like Barca could unsettle him. So best bet this summer is Barca buys Bale, we sign Pedro.

I wouldn't mind bringing in Pedro... but never at those figures. Around £15mil would be more reasonable.
But why on earth would he want to leave Barca? He's had a, by his standards, very poor year due to injuries, but I'm certain once he's back in shape he'll be one of the first names on the team sheet.

This is a great shout. Pedro would be an outstanding signing.

I'd vote for Pedro.

One of the most underrated top level footballers going, would get two thumbs up from me.

It aint gna happen though....
