Onenilmats alternative screen name. When he's not masquerading in bedsheets rambling about his monuments, he's switching between his various screen names

First, Coutinho will flourish at Barca & will get regular playing time. He will fill in for Don Iniesta as @jape mentioned but while the Don is on the squad, will fill in other areas as well. Second, the amount paid was market value... I don't fault Klopp for that quote. He had all intentions of keeping him at the club but it didn't happen.
Having said all that, I whole heartedly agree with
flyeed
. Barca has always spent big here & there in the transfer market but since I've been following the club (89-90 season), they've always had a sizable amount of players from the youth ranks. The team has moved further away from this & relied exclusively on Galatico signings now. Coutinho is a phenomenal player but the club could've spent considerably less on transfer fees & wages to find a player close to that caliber & even purchased several more players.
This is not a sustainable model wage & transfer budget wise even for a big club like Barca. For me, this is a further indictment on why bart, his board, & the footballing people like roberto fernandez need to go.
Seriously though... How is Coutinho going to get #7 if Arda is still on the team?
I guess he's going to get moved ASAP...

LMFAOOOOOO, Obsessed? I was speaking on a topic that one of you's brought up. I get it though, you've lost your prized asset and are lashing out.. I'm familiar with this since my three year old acts the same way.. you just need a time out tommy.

Again, you're obsessed. You get hot and flustered whenever Liverpool comes up and can't wait to mention Klopp. You can't hide what's inside.

More excited about Arnaiz getting to play with the big boys than Coutinho signing. Hope Barca also jack up Arnaiz's release clause. Put him at $400mil

smh i cant believe the state of football... got Madrid fans looking down on us all for spending smh
Was at my barbershop today and one of the dudes there is Madrid supporter. Had to listen to him for 30 mins talk about how they are operating the right way and only buying young players, etc. Made me laugh cuz he acts like this is some new innovative thing. Like clubs haven't relied on their own academies or young players for years.

The overspending reeks of short-term politics for the board to win re-elections over the long-term state of the club. And imo it will probably work and allow them to keep their positions.

Coutinho will fill in for Iniesta but hes not the long term solution. Iniesta holds his runs at times, if Coutinho gets caught out it leaves Busquets and everyone else tp constantly cover.
Barca overspent but yall needed to spend tho. Coutinho's transfer fee could of gotten yall a world class ST or CM easily with extra money left over.

But who?
RM would love to know what world class stiker could be had for that price. It ain't Kane...it ain't Mbappe...Icardi apparently doesn't want to play there. Honest question

Barca have officially had the highest spending season ever by a club so far
Also Matuidi got racially abused yesterday against Cagliari
Italian footy fans seem to be still stuck in the stone age
