So happy we nabbed De Jong and he didn’t go to the golden prison in Paris
de Jong is one of those few players who turn into a different person when they're playing in a football match. When he plays he ascends and to even see everything incredible he achieves on the field you need to pay really close attention.
Rakatic should leave Barca at the end of the season. He is not good enough anymore and has done little this season. Frenkie & Arthur to start with Busquets from next season
One of the worst windows in a while, although my two best friends are milan fans and they couldnt of been happier with their business… and not just piatek who everyones talking about, but this paqueta guy already has their praise.
bro barcas squad is just plain terrifying
De Ligt to Barca hopefully happens in the summer and is the transfer of the year unless Mbappe or Neymar go to Barca or Madrid
All things good but from where in hell are Barcelona gonna find another Busquets
Felliani to China is such a letdown the premier league won't be the same without him. I know he gets a lot of flack but the guy is underrated
he hasn't won anything!they are letting a 120mln player like dembele sit on the bench! you really think he can make the 1st squad?????these transfers are ridiculous
De jong is 21 and on 300k a week. Joke
De Jong will be taking over for Busi and I love it WelcomeFrenkieDeJong??
Newcastle signed Almiron for over 20 million. They never spend money.
Barca midfield triangle: Busquets, Arthur, and De Jong. Wow.
Forza Milan
Desperate to hype hopeless Milan. Gattuso is no manager. He's Joe Jordan's bitch.
Even with big names like Higuain and De Jong, Piatek seems like the signing of the season. What class ?
not pulisic of course.. thats robbery from dortmund,. bum
Barca hardly “sneaked in”. They were the favorites from the start. They’re the team he wanted to go to most of all.
It never ceases to amaze how Rakitic is devalued and taken for granted.
Rakitic is probably the best midfield player in Europe today.
Rakitic is not going anywhere for 2 to 3 more years; Busquets is likely to leave before Rakitic.
De Jong will be an understudy to Rakitic and will have to get playing time in rotation as the 3rd or 4th midfielder in competition with
Arthur, Arturo Vidal, Alenya, Rafinha and Samper assuming none of these players leave.
The one midfield player who will not be leaving FC Barcelona anytime soon is
Ivan Rakitic.
