I get what your saying but I'm not sure we would of won serie A under Sarri without him.

I don't think signing Ronaldo was the problem it's how we used him. Poor midfield signings and poor managerial decisions ruined his time here.

The manner and timing of the operation were not appreciated by Agnelli also because the unwritten pacts with Ronaldo and Mendes have been disregarded. The financial benefit coming with it helps to sweeten the bitter pill and allows an earlier rebuilding process. @guido_vaciago

barcelona spent 300 million plus wages on dembele and griezmann.
+ you can add coutinho, malcom, lenglet, mina, paulinho, semedo, pjanic, even arthur to the list of expensive (+30m) flops who aren't there or on the market. their post neymar market moves were mostly disastrous, some exceptions are pedri, de jong, and some of the la masia guys like ansu fati and that centre back guy i can't recall the name of.

If they have logical sense in business , they will come out fine after 5 years. Their revenues is staggering
Now with the salary caps, they need to find the right formula
- loan out prospect they still want monitoring while gave away some % of wages to become the loan club responsibility
- sell the deadwood or find the resolution with their contracts so they can have a clear financial view only for those who they want to keep
- keep those who will become their backbone of the team

Cut operational cost to be at 50-60% of their revenue (around 400-500m) per year.
According to the source, the total expenditure of FC Barcelona during the season 2019/2020 amounted to 955 million euros, which supposed a decrease of 18 million euros when compared to the previous season. But yeah, this will be a long way and gradual process. They need to reevaluate their players, especially their wages, it is insane

Trim the first team roster to max 25-30 players (it can be filled by some youngster from their B team). With their revenue of 800-900m per year (or maybe more once condition after covid stabilize) it will means around 400m per year profit

Sell first before buying is a must so the transfer market will become at least break even area or even a profitable one
Focusing in acquiring young talents for La Masia or young prospect to grooming for first team

With that in mind in 5 years they will collect around 2 billions, and it surely can pay all of their debts

If he doesn't buck his ideas up we'll soon be on the path to becoming the next Milan/Inter full of high wage journeymen we can't sell and relying on players approaching 40.

I guess it was bound to happen eventually but I was hoping for a CL before several years of mediocrity.

We want to follow the step of Real Madrid as big club, but we actually doing exactly opposite of them

- We made a smaller stadium. We need to do the thorough research, fanbase and population, transportation so we can build at least 80k spectator modern stadium. That will bring at least more or the same revenue from each matchday compare to the other big clubs around Europe. But this is to late
- Madrid if they already sold their top players, they search for a new better talents to fill their squad. We sell Bonucci just to bought him back, now Pjanic we want him back ?. It's just like we don't have a scouting team whatsoever
- Financially Madrid don't to strict on value from their books, if they need to lower the salary they okay to let go like Sergio Ramos, Varane, so they can rebuild lower wages, same quality, more room to growth , that is the most important thing. But if they can get something out of it, they will try to get as much as possible
- They sell CR7 because they think Hazard is the right replacement, even if they are wrong in the and, but the analysis before Hazard came ,he actually really great with Chelsea. And they vision him still have more room to growth because of his age. The result is another matters, because we don't know the future. Some players can just go fall from the stair of their plane and get bad injury, shit happen who knows
- Madrid never bought player over 30 years with 100m+, they bought low selling high at their end 30 or 30-33, or buying high selling high. We buying high selling low, exactly like a moron investor in cryptocurrency (Higuain, CR7). We need more Pogba transfer, and once we sell him we need like Zidane > Buffon, Thuram,Nedved transfer (all of 3 lower wages, improve quality in 3 diff department, bigger room to growth)

Our latest transfer where we doing right is when we try to get the best player, that young, still can improve, relatively low wages than prime players on same position
- De Ligt > will give us transfer money when we think he need to go and he does want to go
- Chiesa > maybe we will keep him as he has strong bonding and currently our best option in attack
- Kulusevsky > has talents, but still need to improve his gameplaying to become more efficient and lethal
- Locatelli >Our top buying in midfielder since years
- Moise Kean > he should not go at the first place, but whatever, he get playing time in PSG and prove he can score goals even tough it in farmers league and he surround by top players that can give easy assists
- Kaio Jorge > exciting talent from Brazil in low price, it is really great we take him now instead of January, so he can get more time with the first squad

Lost opportunity >
- Romero > However this looks like lost opportunity, I am not sure we can groom him to be 55m+ player (max 30-40m in my opinion with 20-25 games if we keep him and that assume he play great with us)
- Donnaruma > clearly we lost the opportunity on one of the best young GK
- We are so thin in Left winger but we dont go for Depay or Calhanoglu on free transfer, both have pretty good goals and assists record in recent years. And to be honest their salary is not that big either

Bright side :
- We start to focusing in buying young players which is good, and we need to improved this with young players that really have bright potential. And we need to improve our dealing process, if we really need it, go for route one as long as the numbers is within the parameter. Don't do to much dwelling
- We start to give a reasonable salary, which is a great improvement to lower the envy in dressing room, thus will make players want a bigger salary. With this approach we can keep our budget tight and available when great opportunity for top young talents available
