It’s Quiet 20 - What is the Wirtz that could happen?

Or they simply made a decision in the summer that's turned out to be wrong. It happens, we move on.
And that decision could have revolved around the Clubs Lawyers telling us to hold back with any transfers due to the charges ? They may have wanted us to hold on until they had a better feel for the case. Who knows, but in the past the Club have never let Pep down with transfer money. so in my my opinion there must have been something afoot to stop us spending.
Very easy to blame Pep and Txiki when we don`t have any knowledge as to why this happened.

This! Our negligent squad succession planning makes little to no sense. Having said that, I recall the seasons after Kompany & Aguero left. But still, you'd have thought we'd have learned our lessons... \0/
 
Not that I know who he is really but isn't Altimira similar to Gonzalez/ Rodri?
Yes, in that he can play as an 8 or 6. If we could get both Altimira & Gonzalez, we'd be set for CDM & No 8 going forward.

We could also dispense with the services of Gundog & Nunes, & I also wouldn't be bothered if Kovacic secured a lucrative move to Saudi either.
 
I would like to think the server will break if we don't sign a DM today but it's January, it's Pep and it's not happening.
 
Do you know what the figure is out of interest?
Reportedly €60m, but there's complications in that Barça have a 40% sell on clause, which Porto can reduce to 20% for an €8m fee to the Catalans. Also, Barça have a €30m buy back clause which becomes active this summer.

I think the haggling's been over the best way to structure the deal so Porto maximise their net sale return. Hopefully we've reached an agreement that suits all parties.

Sky earlier had the stat book out - comparing Gonzalez with Gundo and Kovacic data. Needless to say he was 3rd of the 3. Already creating a narrative of what they going for him for !

It's a pointless comparison. One's hopefully about to start his life in the big leagues, the others are seasoned internationals coming toward the end of their careers for the current world, PL & former European Champions.

Sky can go fuck themselves. It's just them trying to create any type of news to keep eyeballs on their channel during the final hours of the transfer window for commercial purposes.
