Glad we used that logic on Pirlo.

Based on this summer, it's strange to mention a highly exceptional case like Pirlo's. We will have the same struggles offloading these 2 players in a few years time as we are having right now. Besides that, the club has undergone a complete transformation since then, and should not be in a position right now to rely on rejects of other top clubs.

Well Suarez is indeed a bit past it, it'd take Rakitci in a heartbeat though

Rakitic yes. Maybe a fresh challenge can relaunch him. Would take over Matuidi/Sami, etc ASAP.

Are we seriously after Rakitic? The fuck we waiting for here?

Il nuovo Khedira.

If you believe Tuttosport from this morning, he was first in PSG discussing Dybala (and Neymar swap I guess {100m + Dybala}) and then went to Barcelona to discuss Rugani/Suarez/Rakitic and someone else I think...basically, Paratici doing to hokey pokey on the market in the final stretch

Rakitic is 31 years old, so he'll only be good for a season or two. Better than Can of course, but he won't have any resale value, and his wage will complicate his sale.

Our window to win the CL with Ronaldo is 2 years at this point. If these rumors are to be believed, then we are putting all of our chips on the table to make sure that happens. Let them worry about the future later

So we're pulling an Inter and sacrifice long term welfare of the club to win a CL with Ronaldo? Don't get me wrong I won't shed a tear if Can leaves but why not go after a mid that could be of use for more than 2 years?

He seems to have a swap fetish. Swapped Spinazzola with Pellegrini, Cancelo with Danilo, Tried to swap Dybala with Lukaku, and now wants to swap Dybala with Neymar and Can with Rakitic. Swapping any of our deadwood with cash is not his strong suit.

I think the difference will be that if we do achieve that goal of winning the CL during this window, the shape of the club will change dramatically. I don't see them doing a Milan or Inter. they have already started with Rabiot, De Ligt, Demiral, and Pellegrini. You will see some wholesale changes.

wouldnt we need to sell at least five players before signing rakitic? maybe we should focus on that first...

otherwise i am all for signing rakitic but less so for suarez. suarez needs pace and explosiveness, things that decrease with age while rakitic will likely age better

 

[rainhard]

All of the swap probably because the new tax law. If he can found a clone for each of our player elsewhere he will absolutely swap all of our players in order to get lower taxes

maybe but that still doesnt help with squad size

Danilo is hardly a Cancelo clone, and Pellegrini and Spinazzola swap was surely because of plusvalenza

Rakitic is not good enough anymore, maybe a few years ago. He is like Khedira now. Try to watch Barca sometimes, not youtube ofc.

Exactly. We must think about ronaldo now. Rakitic is for sure better than Can so he can give us easily 2 years of good service.

Heck, we are giving extensions to has beens who are 33 yrs old and above.... Why on earth we cannot try rakitic?

Rakitic is more than good enough. discussion over!!!

 

[Espectro]

Dear God... please end this suffering... close the transfer window pleeeease

 

[zizinho]

barcelona actually want Can? And then there is the Rugani rumors, which can only mean one thing. Not even scouts watch Serie A games

 

[PedroFlu]

Let's see if he can pull something out of nowhere, but honestly, the way things have been done is a total mess so far.

i kind of doubt it, Can has looked real slow in possession since he has been here.

maybe the plan is to convert him into a CB? more likely this is just more bs to add to the pile
