They have a decent team on paper and seem to do well enough in bigger games without Messi, but they look hopeless whenever they play against lesser opposition without Messi like today.

I agree that Messi is much more of a system player nowadays that he's become lazier and lost some pace. A younger Messi would have been fine in a more counterattacking system, like he was in 14/15 for example. However you slice it though, Barca the past two seasons without Messi would have been...

Barca so shit against Bilbao first half. If Messi doesn't get the Ballon for carrying that team, they should scrap the award.

Nah, we need a strong British spine in our team. Maguire's also got great character and he's a terrific leader. He would have been a future Juventus captain if we signed him.

We should have signed Maguire instead

Yeah, I guarantee there'll be plenty of humble pie to be eaten after he tears it up at City this season.

Except the Juve staff were celebrating when he was leaving and then crying when he announced he was staying

According to The Transfer Window podcast -We planned to sell Cancelo to City and replace him with Alves who wanted to come but we were waiting for City to offload Danilo first -Alves got tired of waiting and then signed for San Paulo -Now we're so desperate to raise funds by selling Cancelo...

swap for Phil Jones

Not the best comparison: Hazard went for like 130-150m, Hazard is 28, and Hazard had one year left on his contract.

Better than nothing, but still a million miles worse than a buyback clause. If Kean becomes a world class player with other clubs offering 100m+, we'll still have to pay that fee and it's more likely we'd be outbid by a richer club and the clause would be meaningless. 1564772101 I'm so bloody...

maybe a swap for Sanchez

I think he was just fatigued from playing 90 minutes two days earlier. That's understandable, but then either don't play him 90 minutes against Inter or don't sign a contract saying that he will play at least 45 in this match.

I don't get what the fuck our strategy is this summer. We hire Sarri because we wanted to play a more attacking and exciting brand of football, but our transfer business looks like we're trying to build a Mourinho/Allegri type team.

Looking forward to seeing him link up with big Rom next season
