Thiago Alcantara

[Bpughh]

Thiago would be worth it.

 

[richards30]

Yep, Thiago would be a superb signing

 

[Withnail]

Just get it done Pep

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Been a lot of mention of his injuries, wonder if we could actually pull a loan deal on this one.

Other top teams seem to find them on occasion but can't remember our last one at the top table.

 

[bobom]

Does Thiago not play in the no 8 role?

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Isn’t he another Gundogan?

 

[FCBarca]

Yep, Thiago would be a superb signing

Indeed. Ideally, Barcelona would sign both Thiago & De Jong but this board has already made it clear they do not prioritize Thiago + Pep has the advantage with the player

 

[Citizen Green]

Not sure he's what we need, more of a Gundogan than Jorginho.

Also has an iffy injury record.

 

[Kompany Car]

Whilst I think Thiago would be the better long term purchase. If we could get Vidal, if only for a couple of seasons, it would be great. He may be getting on a bit, but he still is one of the best midfielders on the planet.

 

[MCFC1993]

Just don't need him. Doesn't play Fern's position for starters.

Then we have Gundogan, De Bruyne, Silva, arguably Bernardo and Foden fighting it out for 2 spots. All signing him would do is eat into Foden's playing time.

He's class and maybe there's an argument for him taking Gundogans spot but I'd rather stick with Ilkay hoping he can get back to his form when we beat Barca 3-1.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Would be well happy with Thiago after missing out on Jorginho.

 

[Blue Hefner]

He's a good player but he's always injured, isn't he?

 

[BlueAnorak]

His injury record is so poor - I'd have to say no.
Certainly at the price Bayern will demand.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

I'd take three of them - Boateng, no thanks!

think we could make a move for thiago tolm?

Maybe. Watched him last season. His performance at the Bernabeu was incredible.

 

[Adamb95]

Not convinced Thiago is what we need tbh, would prefer Vidal if it is true that they have both been made available.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Bernat would be a useful utility player. But Vidal must be getting on a bit, Thiago is quite similar to Gundogan and Boateng is no better than any of our four centre backs.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Rags can have Boateng

Either Thiago or Vidal please

 

[willipp]

Maybe. Watched him last season. His performance at the Bernabeu was incredible.

It was, but on the same note his performance in the first leg at Home was terrible.
