Lenglet, he didn't destroy Manchester United at the theatre of dreams under the tutelage of Vincenzo Montella to face such disrespect

Carried by the great mind of Montella tbh.

Lol I bumped this thread after months because there were rumours about Inter on him....and at the end he is going to Barcellona

Thank you cule' though, it is better Barca than Roma. At least I can't gnaw for it now

The Brazilian will sign a contract for 5 seasons and will earn around €5m a year. Barça will pay €41m to Bordeaux and the Catalan club is already working on the official announcement. [@brunoandrd]

he'll join Barca for the US tour.

good signing to put some pressure on Meltbele.

Feel bad for Mina, he must be shown Barca hes not good enough during training, since in the games we have seen him he hasnt looked that bad to be gave up so fast?

So we getting some more attackers, although not sure how strong defensively Arthur is, since with Busquets aging, we seem to need a bit of balance in midfield.

Anyway, I believe this was a good deal for the 'low' fee nowadays and mainly because Monchi wanted the guy, so it should be a reliable judgement on potential :p

I hope Bordeaux get fined hard for this. Pleb behaviour.

by Myesyats Wed Jul 25, 2018 9:28 am

Bordeux offered Roma a chance to raise their bid and they didn't match what Barca were willing to pay. It wasn't as unfair and controversial as you make it out to be IMO.

by halamadrid2 Wed Jul 25, 2018 10:53 am

Thing is, they already matched Barca's initial bid. But Barca raised it again. Roma aren't as rich as Barca. There's only so many times they can raise their bids.

Besides there was already an agreement but I don't expect Barca to understand that. They have been handed so many Ls in the transfer markets by PSG and RM etc that they had to bully a smaller team like Roma to finally get a win. Sad.

All they are doing is causing more teams to alienate them. Why do you think PSG and Santos are refusing to sell you players?

PS: they (Roma) don't have the ability to loan money to pay for transfers and wages without attracting the attentions of the FFP brigade

by rincon Wed Jul 25, 2018 10:57 am

Bordeaux agreed to a deal, closed it, and they themselves announced it publicly using Roma's name against their wishes. Then they took a different but after both clubs had made it official and a plane was booked. Told Roma to match it, they even did. Then they said no again.

Not unfair or controversial Laughing

I don't know or care what will happen, Roma surely will try to get them fined. Regardless of what happens with that, it's clear Boudeaux are acting like asses.

the reason the guy is at barca and not roma is because he chose to go to barca. the bids didnt matter. if barca had even bid a few mill lass than roma he would he still ended up at barca so its the player thats the turn coat

It's not Barca's fault Bordeaux can't keep their word.

And what Ls have been handed to Barca by PSG and RM??? lol RM hasnt been truly active on the market since 2014 and PSG ignoring our offers for Silva and Verratti??? that's doing us a favor, not giving us an L Laughing

The only team we don't have a good relationship with is United. And that's because they acted like a small team blaming a fax machine instead of admitting that they didn't want us to buy their player. And the only club that hurts is United. We usually sell our players cheap but we will always quote a record bid when it's United

Do Barca not have people that read official statements? Both Roma and Bordeux put out official statements that it was done. He was on his way to Roma to sign the documents and in sweeps Barca to turn his head. No self-respecting big team would do that to a smaller team. None.

PSG took Neymar after you unsettled Silva and Veratti. Threatened to take Messi too if you didn't back off their stars. Now refuse to sell you Rabiot who is on their shopping list. We have first refusals on Santos players. Got Rodrygo despite you offering more. No doubt we will continue to get their best players in the future.

All Barca's own doings. We are still bearing the brunt of Valencia's anger over a decade on because they feel they were wronged when we bought Morientes. This isn't something teams forget

All I know is Malcom wanted to go to Barca and no statement could change that. I don't care if rules were breached, not my problem, is it?

PSG didnt take Neymar from us lmao, he expressed the wish to leave and we let him go, there's no point in keeping a player who doesnt want to play for you. Not selling Rabiot, again, is a favor to us, not a hit at us.

As to Rodrygo, obviously we can't buy all talent in the world, we aren't the only team in the world. Instead, we got another young talent. Whatever.

by farfan Wed Jul 25, 2018 11:42 am

Of course it's not your problem, you have absolutely nothing to do with Barça. Laughing

the point is that it was a dick move from an ethical standpoint.

And PSG triggered a release clause, Barcelona had 0 control over the situation.

by danyjr Wed Jul 25, 2018 11:46 am

Barça are not to blame in this case. You could call them opportunists but they haven't put a foot wrong. It is Bordeaux who had more than a gentleman's agreement with Roma but didn't honour it so they could make a few more bucks.

Not having watched Malcom play, I now have watched a few YouTube videos of his skills etc. and he looks like a RW who likes to cut in on his left a lot, thus getting in the way of Coachessi.

To be loaned off to Girona with option to buy for €5m next year :coffee:

I know that..... The point is if Neymar agreed to move then it means he didnt want to play for us which is fine because we are not keeping a player who doesnt want to play for us. We didnt take an L in this situation, in my eyes. We got a lot of money for him.

All Barca fans hate our current management and it's obvious they're idiots but theres nothing we can do about it. They did this "dick move" clearly to piss off Roma for eliminating us.

by Luca Wed Jul 25, 2018 11:53 am

I think it’s a dangerous precedent to be set if clubs are able to officially anounce that a player is being transferred only to sell him to another club at a higher price. It’s like an extremely slimy sales tactic, unsurprisingly a club like Barca is involved here Proud

From asking Demebele to throw fits to bidding for Malcom after his transfer has been announced. Mes que un club indeed

by Art Morte Wed Jul 25, 2018 11:55 am

I wonder how happy Willian is with Chelsea right now that they refused to sell him to Barcelona...

by halamadrid2 Fri Jul 27, 2018 10:55 am

Roma president goes through the details of the operation

Spoiler:

A few things:

-money hungry agents are the lowest of the low
-Barca have no idea what they are doing. The only 2 other teams tracking him were Everton and Leicester Laughing

they must have jumped in for the cheapest Brazilian that became available
-Is he suggesting possible collusion hmm

pfft, means nothing. We paid 150 for Dembele and he looks whack. For all we know the 41 mil Malcom might be twice the player in the future.
