Barcelona

The issue is they tap up players and then try every trick to drive down the price.

Some might not see that now, but will be Bernie is sold for £40 million (£25 up front and £15 million over 4 years) and £10 million on the basis they win back to back UCL’s etc.

I know the response is the club should not sell, but it won’t be that simple.

If they paid market value whilst looking for a bit of a deal, fine. But they take the P.
Fools are easily parted from their money as we have witnessed over the road since Gill/Ferguson left.

A top club that players want To play for have huge leverage in deals

Well good luck to them. I don't have an issue with it. I can assure you we will be doing some very underhand tactics ourselves. Barca are just always public with it.
 
What's all the fuss about?
What deal did we do with Barca against our will?
Torres? Txiki masterclass.
Garcia? We refused to take 15m.

We will only do deals that we want to do.
Surely, being in a better position.

I don't expect Bernardo leaving on a cheap. He has to bring a club paying £70m or he stays. Hope he sees out his contract til 2025 and gets home back to Benfica.

Let’s wait and see.

With you 2 more years, give him a loyalty bonus at the end and can go back to Benfica.

However, I think he wants to play football somewhere else before Benfica.

100% this.

Do people think we will pay Dortmund the full fee on their term when Bellingham wants only to join us?

Not a chance, same goes with Gvardiol , they will be signed on terms favorable to us.

I know Jude and Gvardiol would want us as 1st choice, but it reminds me of the Cucurella saga. In the end, he went to the highest bidder, but I am sure he would have loved to join us instead.
Anyway, I hope you are right, and we aren't paying 130m for Bellingham because that's not exactly favourable. With Gvardiol, I hope it doesn't become a bidding war since there are a few teams interested in him. I hope we can get it done at 80m and below.

I think we will get both for 150 plus bonuses.

That would be some brilliant business. Then, maybe we could consider Mac Allister as a cherry on top to piss off everyone in the media :)?
 
They still generate huge incomes, and as said before a lot of players would love to play for them

The huge income is going to there debt! They haven’t got a pot to piss in! Unless they sell players! There is a wage cap also so before they buy they NEED to sell.
