Dani Olmo

If up to Olmo to decide can see him still trying to make it work with Barca for a while.

Is there a deadline for signing free agents?

I actually agree with most of what you're saying and ordinarily that should be the priority but we've been so bad and so poorly prepared by Txiki and Pep that what should be a top priority in any normal window is now way down the list. Unless we get the opportunity to offload somebody this window, I feel a backup striker will have to wait as we look for a starting midfielder and some fit defenders as the immediate top priority.

To go into the season with no rodri back up was scandalous. I feel exactly the same about Haaland. Those 2 positions (DM/Haaland backup and/or second striker/AM) are the most urgent imo for this window, compounded by the fact the other attacking midfielders/wingers we already have don't score any goals…

We have seen what losing Rodri with no back up has done to us. If Haaland goes down we are royally screwed. There is zero reason a club in our position should be playing russian Roulette like this…

Of course we have many other issues. Keeper and right across the back line RB (Walkers finished), LB (we dont have one) and 2 injury prone centre halfs in Stones/Ake. Which will all need addressing next summer. Along with Bernardo/Grealish/KDB

Every single piece of Barca being sold off.

What happens when theres nothing left to sell off?

Barcelona wont own any aspect of their own club.

This is exactly what ffp should have prevented
They clearly are not a sustainable club in any way shape of form
Leeds United vibes on a bigger scale

Indeed. If FFP was worth its salt, Barça simply wouldn’t be allowed to be in this situation. They’d be in the bottom half of La Liga looking after their finances properly or face heavy santions while another club like Athletic Bilbao took their place at the top end of the table, giving them a shot at earning CL money regularly and winning some honours like they regularly did in early Spanish football (the original ‘El Classico’ in Spain was Real Madrid v Athletic Bilbao).

Instead they’ve gambled their future for short term insecurities to remain at the top end of the table. It could, however, see them off as a club. Their big Classico game could be against Barça B in the division below as their empire crashes down under the weight of their short sighted idiocy.

Right back really worries me considering how many goals seem to be as a direct result of mistakes from this position. DM also right up there as well as you state.
 
big difference between olmo being able to leave and wanting to. He started there, wants to play there and live there. Sure a compromise will be reached. Maybe a 5% chance of us getting him on a 6 month loan which would be ok.
