I guess it depends on how highly Poulsen is still valued in La Liga. He did well at Schalke, and then perhaps even better at Sevilla...And he has not suffered any major career threatening injuries whilst he has been with us. He is clearly still capable of being a high quality cenntral midfield dog of war, just not with us...Perhaps the pace and tactical systems employed more commonly in La Liga suit his style of play more...Either way, it would be interesting to know more of his reputation in Spain.
I mean...to some barca fans, maybe we are wasting our time and money on caceres, as he didnt impress in his first season with them. And to us...we would feel similar, or even more fiercely critical and content, that Barca would be taking a player who did nothing for us in his first season at our club.
I am sure that Poulsen has quality. But his chances are going to be extremely limited at Juve this season...We have Melo, Momo, Marchisio, Zanetti...all of whom I prefer to see in a central midfielder Hack and Hustle role. We don't need him.
Caceres obviously also has quality, else Barca wouldnt have paid all that money for him a year ago. He is much younger than Poulsen, and he plays in a position, or even positions, where we are desperately in need of reinvogoration.
An exchange of sorts, with us paying extra $$$$ would be perfect.
is there any news on the Loan with View to Buy Clause vs Full Acquisition????
