I'd pay that tbh. We can offload Hernanes to China or Pereyra/Sturaro to EPL. He's so much better than those it's not even funny.

We need champions who will give this team confidence in CL. Otherwise we will always look frightened and $#@! up at some point.
Don't think we'll be afraid anymore. This team has all the confidence it needs after this season. It knows it's capable of great things.

Yes, he's worth it for his playing abilities but he's also 32 within 10 days... I'd say 10-15 is a reasonable price. Would I pay 20m if they don't budge? Probably yes, but it's overspending.

Mirko Graziano says FCB wants 20 mil for Mascherano. Yeah, that ain't happening.
So what may be assumed a fair price for him then. I'd acknowledge that €20m seems a lot for a player of that age but I'd reckon that his fitness and sustainability levels are good enough to get this wrapped up quickly at a figure not unadjacent to €18m (£14m) .

I realize that we have a reputation as a club of cheesepairing parsimoniousness. Nonetheless, his experience and acknowledgement of his defensive capabilities makes it a no-brainer to offer a three year contract.

So Alves, Mascherano and Berardi almost sorted. Now for Cavani to replace Morata if the Spaniard leaves.

Mascherano for 20m? I'd rather spend that money on somebody else, preferably somebody who's not 32.

Get Biglia, he's a beast.

Mascherano is as close to a Tevez deal you're going to get, for age, value and ability. There is no better player than this guy at that price that will have an immediate impact for us in the CL.

Biglia an average player. Mascherano is a big leader who has been the best cdm in the world for 10 years.


"Beast" :lol:

Indeed.

They even complain about his age while Javier has AT LEAST 3 more seasons of a top level ahead of him. We'd be lucky bastards to end up with him.
