It's gonna be Xavi. I know I shouldn't (I mean, he's only managed in Qatar) but I'm all the fuck in right now.

 

 

Would you prefer Ten Hag, Gallardo or Martinez to Xavi, or does his history and knowledge of the club sway it?

How much should we pay for Isak do you think?

 

 

 

Haven't got a clue about Sociedads finances, but I highly doubt they'd sell him for less than the release clause. If we are filthy rich, I would pay the full €90m for him. He's got everything you want from a striker, and will only get better.

No matter how much money we have and no matter how many top quality players we can attract, I don't want anyone if they're gonna take Wilson's spot in the XI. I love him.

Well aye, that one is just a token amount, Barca were clearly stung by the Neymar transfer and don't want it happening again. Its usually the smaller clubs where it happens. 

Sociedad upped Isaks release clause from €40m to €90m this summer after his success. If it had stayed at 40, someone would have definitely met it soon enough like. 

 

Yeah, think Arsenal were looking to sign him. Looks a fantastic prospect.

Absolutely no reason why they couldn't both play together, plus with Wilsons history with injuries, we need a proper replacement for him.

Brain says Ten Hag (I know little of Gallardo), heart says Xavi. And I'm gonna go all Disney movie and follow my heart. Dude was the living embodiment of our style. He was more Mr Barça than Messi himself. 

 

Hopefully we're not getting Catalan Solksjaer...

 

As soon as I heard on radio it could be Xavi I hoped it was. Hope he's like what Pep was for you. 

 

Koeman has totally ruined Barcelona squad it feels. I know boardroom have had a shocker and debt etc. - but he was wrong person at the worst time.

There's also the whole chain of torch-passing from Cruyff to Guardiola and now to Xavi. As a football fan, I live for this shit.

 

And yes, our squad is badly depleted but we're much better than what's been on display. Koeman was a terrible manager, with a terrible defeatist attitude and always making excuses. He lost games before the ball started rolling.

Sounds like the inept cabbage head we had.

100% agree with this it's probably why we should have Rafa and Everton should have Big Dunc.

Xavi has massive contracts with most of Qatar's major brands and he's pretty much all over their ads and media there, he's making an insane amount of money, so he won't be in a hurry to leave that behind anytime soon.

He's already absolutely minted one would think, and he'll have a chance to manage his boyhood club and one of the biggest clubs in the world. Some commercial deals isn't going to stop him moving home to Barcelona

And he’s won the *checks notes* Qatar Stars League, Qatari Super Cup, Emir of Qatar Cup, Qatari Stars Cup, and Qatar Cup (twice), so he’s not got much more to do there.

 

Yes those are all real and separate competitions. :lol:
