What does getting him in a straight swap change?

We either get him on a free next summer or we give a nominal fee now to Barca so they can clear his wages for the rest of the season. Next summer is likely I reckon, he probably still hopes Barca will have some fans in the stadium so he can have a farewell by the end of the season.

Getting him in January means he can play in the Champions League according to the new rules I think.
Not an insignificant advantage particularly given our injury record with strikers in recent times.
 
1 goal from open play in his last 10 games. He’ll be 34 next summer. He’s the best player ever, but I just don’t see it being the success everyone thinks it will be.

I wouldn’t expect him to come in and be scoring 50 goals and 30 assists but without a doubt he would make us a better team.

Using this seasons current stats is a bit unfair, there’s so many things going on that it’s almost impossible for him to perform at his best.

If you saw the Barca vs Betis game though you’ll see how much he can change a game. He came on and ran the show and won Barca the game, his passing and vision was incredible.
