Dembele goals for Barcelona season by season.

2017-2018 - 4
2018-2019 - 14
2019-2020 - 1

And if he didn't go full retard against Liverpool in the Nou Camp, they might not have bottled it in the second leg. Dude needs to be fit and consistent before we have discussion about leading Barca, cause Zenit might be his future at this rate.


Or if Dortmund want him back. Since they have a history of doing that.

If we do splash the cash to get Sancho I just hope we have some youth in the wings for CB, CDM, RW and ST. We're only an injury or two away from being in trouble.

We need 3 players this summer if we're serious about challenging for a title next season, we need another Top CB, upgrade LB and obviously Sancho. I think CM/DM is ok for one more season.

Obviously some luck with injuries would also be appreciated.

Real talk, we need like 4-5 players. A CB, a CDM, a RW, a ST and another LB.

Who's worse though? Lindelof or Magiure? You can add Bailly if you like.

that's why I said if he stays fit for next season. Dembele never had injury issues before Barca. Doctors already determined the main cause of his issue was Barca's training and doctors. That's why Dejong went back to Netherlands to get treated. Barca doesn't need a Messi replacement, that's unrealistic. But having the two most talented young attacking playing together on your team doesn't seem that bad post Messi is it? It's not %100 he's going to Madrid. Barca will most likely have a new president after next season with a fresh start trying to prove a point. He's great pals with Dembele more than anyone at Madrid. Barcelona is a better city and has just as many french players. And for all of Madrid up and coming youngsters that are being hyped, only Odegaard and Mendy the ones that have starting potential. Valverde is good all around but he's not exceptional.

and Neymar is 29 years old with injury issues. that ship is sailed

Barca don't have the funds to sign Mbappe. They cannot even renovate the Nou Camp which has been in the plans since when Rijkaard was incharge.

Maguire would be the best of the lot with a proper partner.

Dayot Upamecano or Kalidou Koulibaly probably. Wouldn't mind taking Ake if Bournemouth get relegated

Arsenal reserve goalkeeper is comfortably better than Chelsea's 70m starting keeper.

I agree with your point regarding Dembele’s injury record. I do feel Barca will give him 1 more season to prove he’s worth depending on cause he’s still very young.

Mbappe is 100% going to Madrid, they’ve been flirting with each other for the last year. If it wasn’t for COVID he’d be joining this summer. Plus after so many big money flops I think Barca would rather go back to a player they know can deliver for them than go for a new player.

Neymar is 28 and right in his prime. As long as he doesn’t follow the traditional Brazilian path of being washed post 30 he’s got at least 4 years at the very top. Yes he’s been injured a lot at PSG but his heart is not fully in the project their which probably contributed to his fitness. He’s determined to go back to Barca and I think there were rumors he’s ready to take a pay cut to get it done.

I dont see united signing any of those players this summer.
