Greizmann was categorically what you call a luxury buy.
He's a good player but doesn't fit Barca. ESPECIALLY with a limited coach like Valverde. He would basically be a slightly better Coutinho.

He looks worse with better players. A

So. Cal
You have Batshuayi as an option. You have Rudiger, Loftus Cheek And Hudson-Odoi to come back.

You’re not going to find pure strikers like Aguero anymore. It’s mostly wingers that are top scorers.


Besides rudiger, the rest are just pure young poetential. Granted its better then having tammy atm and pedro running around doing fukk all

Thinking about the supercups earlier in the month, I was wondering what the hell happened to the one in Spain, I remember they had theirs in North Africa last year. Did some quick googling and saw that they moved it to the winter ... to be played in Saudi Arabia ... with 4 teams involved. :mindblown:

Yep. Barca, Valencia, Real and Atletico.

With these inflated transfers, clubs gotta find additional income some how. Moving the Super Cup to a two-legged affair draws in more revenue. I think this is also why were seeing much more grand international friendlies. $$$
