Won't happen.
Short, fast, very technical, young enough to get used to the unfamiliar style, won't have much pressure on him to lead the team on his shoulders.

Wish him an injury because he surely won't flop :D
Dunno, for some reason I think Barca is his worst option. I think Rossi would be great there, but Sanchez... not so sure.

My mind is blocked atm, but does Pedro play on the right side in Barca's 4-3-3? I think Villa's on the left and Messi in the center most of the time. If that's true and Sanchez simply replaces Pedro on the right side, then he'll get his best role. He will be both a SS and a RW, which he is already well used to.
He will only have to learn the style well. The openings, positioning etc. When he does, he'll have no problems imo.

I think they rotate. Messi is quite often there, cutting inside. But yeah, it's usually Pedro there I think.

Maybe you're right. I can't see him becoming a great team worker which is required there.

Pedro is a great player, but would only fit certain teams. Sanchez will rotate with Pedro and in a year or two Sanchez will take Villa's place.

Sanchez would have been perfect for us, too bad we will end up with the likes of Pepe and Bastos.
Shows the lack of ambition we have compared to Barca when they still cough in millions for talent even though they have huge debts on them.

Ill be happy with Bastos on the left as long as we buy Aguero and Lass/Inler

He may or may not flop, but I can't see him making Barca more effective.

This last season, Barca had a good balance between players who want to come short and get the ball and players who look to run in behind a defence and stretch the game to make space for the passers in midfield.

If Sanchez takes the place of Villa or Pedro in the team, it could have a similar effect to when they replaced Eto'o with Ibrahimovic. When that happened, they only had one person really looking to run off the ball and it made them slower and easier to play against.

They really don't need to change anything. They have the perfect team and they're doing changes just for the sake of it. It's good to add new blood and shake up things a little bit, but Barca really don't have to do it now. Especially not by adding a +35m eur player.
The idiots are only screwing up teams that actually need Sanchez.

It's the signing of a player who will play the position very differently to how Pedro/Villa play the wide striker roles, so change the way the system operates.

Rossi would be a much more sensible signing for them.
