so they're paying 70m? cool.

Eric Garcia all over again. The player and Barcelona playing silly buggers and dragging it out in the press.

And it's maddening to me that Guardiola and his pals in the boardroom continue to play nice with Barcelona. They need to get it through their skulls that they don't work for them anymore.

So my feelings are the same. Fuck him, fuck Barca, if he wants to go fine but let the little fanny rot in the reserves until he does.

€70 is a good price. Leaves us short on options though going into the run in.

I'm still extremely sceptical that Barcelona have the necessary funds to do a deal, but the story does seem to be gathering momentum. Surely we must be looking to sign a striker in January if we allow Torres to leave.

Not a hope they will pay over 40 and it will be over 5 years.

Surely we must have a good idea on a striker this summer.. Haaland? God I hope so.

I find it hilarious that Barca covet so many of our attacking players. Meanwhile none have moved there.

Sergio Aguero :-p

Awesome news,this special friendship should see FDJ arrive here on the cheap then......

I find these rumours have come out of nowhere then over the last 10 days or so they are all we have heard about. When did we develop a special relationship with Barcelona? As I commented with Garcia it is understandable that a young lad will want to be nearer his family after living through a pandemic that has restricted movement. I wonder if all of this will cause a slight change in the clubs approach in the future.
