Rakitic and Busquets are both 30 and Vidal is 31. Vidal screamed a short term fix buy. They desperately need to plan for the future

Yes, it has kind of swung that way now it appears. Mind you, the way they get through managers, Eriksen might not be flavour of the month all too long.
I'm kidding myself aren't I. He's so damn good he's always going to have admirers for a few seasons yet.
Not really sure what I thought about the Rabiot links. No questioning his talent, but sulky to boot. Poch's got a good team cohesion going within the club. No little cliques, they all seem to get along together.
Don't need that destroying by a moody little French twerp with mother in toe.
NON! NON! NON!

No I completely understand bringing in a younger player, more of the style of Rabiot compared to what we're used to with Barca midfielders. Coutinho & Arthur are clearly the future there, Busquets is likely to play well into his early/mid 30's. I don't see a clear starting opportunity for him. I've seen many Barca fans saying Coutinho is best in midfield rather than on the wing where they have Malcom and Dembele hoping to step up and grab that spot.

Lol@PSG complying. Both clubs stink and should be banned from European competitions.
Oil money in football makes me wretch.

It’s simple...
Rabiot to Barca
De Jong to PSG
N’Dombele to City
Nobody to Spurs...
I think Berge would be a good signing and more in our market, but let’s not kid ourselves for one second and think that we are shelling £60+ on anybody

Gallows humour rating, but you’re absolutely right. We’ll sign prospects if anything

Understandably Messi, Coutinho etc are signficantly above our wage cap but are the rest of their squad really on mega wages?

Sorry, it was meant as a general question.

Barcelona paid the most in Europe in 2018 (that they admitted to).

Tbf to likes of Barca, Man U, Real Madrid - I'm not convinced they need to lie as they generate the cash.
City and PSG are the ones that are more likely to to be less than 100% honest as they are mostly funded by cash injections from their owners
