LionOfGosforth Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Barca are lunatics, horribly run club. Don't get the continuing obsession with them and players still seemingly desperate to play for them, think their dominant Messi-era days could take quite some time to return. Their treatment of De Jong has been a joke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They became like a second team. But they’ve become more and more like Real Madrid the last 4-5 years or so and I’m not particularly keen on them these days.

Give me names, I will listen. Not exactly earth-shattering reporting like . The Leeds Chairman (forget his name) already said Harrison not leaving and Maddison, well not exactly putting your neck on the line to say we're not going to pay their asking at this point. Typical of the kind of journalism we often get these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical of the kind of journalism we often get these days. I think Harrison is dead and I think there is a small chance we go back for Maddison. Of course we will have other targets and I'm sure we are working at them now. I still expect us to go foreign. Better value. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their treatment of De Jong has been a joke. Loved watching them during the 2000s. Enjoyed the Dutch connection there early 2000s, Rivaldo, through the Kluivert/Saviola team, to Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Deco, etc. Ever since they stuck a sponsor on them (which is fair enough tbh), they've acted horribly. Think my most hated action was them taking advantage of that stupid rule where they were able to buy Braithwaite outside of the transfer window because of injuries and it ended up relegating the club he joined from.

I know he went to AM on loan If not then... https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/19398037/memphis-depay-barcelona-tottenham-transfer/ Quote he has other options, with Newcastle tipped to try to pull off a shock deal for the former Manchester United man.

SUPERTOON Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I expect many to disagree, but Zaha only has 1 year left on his deal. We seemingly haven’t been able to get our top targets, I’d have Zaha in a heartbeat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I said this earlier. He’s almost 30 but £30m we could get maybe 3 top years from him. He could help us bridge the gap to the next level up. Zaha on the left. ASM on the right. Teams can’t defend either wing 1v1. High wages, poor resale value yada yada as reasons not too I guess.

The College Dropout Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 It’s also probably too late in the window to get him. Palace probably resolved to letting him go for free and him helping ensure they stay up comfortably. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
