so you watched Barcelona a lot last 2 seasons?
I watched enough to know Alves isnt such of an improvement over Cuadrado!
Does Alves has a bigger rep? Yes! Does it makes him better? Nope
They are both very good with their own style Alves is smarter and is more of straight to the point while Cuadrado is more fancy and flair sometimes he runs like a headless chicken but sometimes his runs could make the difference!

Is Alves the better player two years ago I`d say yes but right now I think they both offer different things!
We lose a player who can dribble past a player and create that thing out of nothing but we get a smarter player who is a better team player and without those times we really need a spark from someone is definitely the better choice!

Id pick Cuad over Alves because of his age and the fact that Cuad can get us points sometimes when all seems lost as his individual strength is much better than Alves! (Alves is a much better team player btw...)

I really hope we're going to play 4312, i'm tired to see us with 5 defenders on the pitch. Pereyra started today against west ham behind the strikers, so let's wait and see. Edgar please come back and boss the midfield again :agree:

When you say DM you are referring to the position held by Pirlo and now Marchisio right? The one we depend on for the pace of our game and starting attacks and slowing the game when neccesary. Yes he is who I want there just like Vidal should have been there but we prefered Pirlo
I don't think everybody can be a Pirlo. An actual defensive player as DM could be nice. And having Panic as regista would be a waste of his nice shots.

Are James and Isco still on the market and how much woud they cost?

If you could trade alves for Cuads would you even though you would lose 20 mil as well? Alves was free and Cuads was not so its not an even debate and to be fair Alves is better passer hands down and really good at making runs

does Gabon even qualify for AFCON regularly?
Not sure, but the coming edition they are hosting it.

Don't sign Matuidi.. let Raiola take his clients elsewhere
This is ridiculous, we should keep in professional, without Raiola we would never sign Pogba at the first place, he pushed him off United to join us. Secondly, we still got Kean who is big thing for his age with us, and Raiola is his agent.

Not to forget Bouy, but he can be shipped off.

I'd rather get a younger player as well but all this analogy of not getting Raiola players anymore is ridiculous.
Matuidi has a contract until 2018. Only reason he wants to bring him here is so he can get paid and Matuidi can too while he only gets worse.

Kean will be another nothing player we signed when he was young. Just like Bouy. If we are lucky we get a few mill for Bouy.

Just realized that Pogba is still following Juventus in twitter, and Juventus is still following Cuadrado in twitter, the only football player that the club is following and not playing for us at the moment.

I think Matuidi is still a good player and has plenty to offer but I'm not saying we should sign him I'm saying that Raiola being his agent should have nothing to do with that decisions.

I could see it but how much would he be? 50-60?
No one going to buy him for that price, his progress been really stagnant, at current inflated market i think he probably will command 35 million, we better go for Bernardo Silva whom we had earlier links if we want a number 10.
