Would absolutely love him here but I can't see it happening, I can't see Bayern letting him come to us. Him alongside Gundogan would be special though
 
Have him in a heartbeat if this is true, one of the top 5 passers in world football, passing ability not far off Xavi but he has that cleverness and movement that Iniesta has/had. He's a go between of the two in my opinion but yet to reach their heights, which isn't a worry as Xavi was 27/28 years old before he significantly shone.

Pep loathes a first team squad of 21-22 players, preferring instead a much tighter and more intimate group who are versatile enough to cover several positions. It's a conversation for a different thread, but when I look at above "super squads" I'm inclined to see his point -- what a perfect nightmare it would be keeping that whole roster from mutiny.

As far as Alcantara goes, I lean toward the previously mentioned two pieces of hearsay (and don't know much firsthand): supposedly plagued by injury problems, but plays like the second coming of Jesus (the son of god, not Navas) when he's fit.
