WTF is going on At barca? In serious financial trouble, can't afford to register players but still throwing money around like Bardo in a casino Makes me think this whole "we can't afford to register Messi" was just a rous t get him out the club and free up wages
Agreed. Starting XI plus a couple of others are absolutely up to the job. Rest of the squad looks light. Need a wide player, wide striker, at least 1 CM and a left back IMHO Not at all convinced by Gooch At RB/RWB
I think Broadhead would still be a quality addition. Stewart, Simms and Broadhead is a ****ing WORLD away from Wyke, Grigg and O'brien as striking options at the club
He’s got a lot of quality but is he reliable? Is he even fit now? Hasn’t kicked a ball in a game all pre-season.
A bit of creative accounting and raising money by selling off their TV rights (Spanish clubs negotiate separate deals, rather than the league negotiating the rights) and by selling off a share in their merchandise licensing. https://fansided.com/2022/07/19/barcelona-debt-ridden-afford-superstar-players/
Think I've logged onto the wrong forum. Now we don't like or want Broadhead because: He's money orientated (not sure why we'd expect him to take a massive pay cut / miss out on a bonus he's entitled to / or whether there's anything to suggest its money holding it up) He's unproven at this level (neither is Simms, Stewart...) He's unfit (sack our medical staff if they're sanctioning signing a crock)
Everton, it seems have something of a Striker problem themselves, at the moment. We might have a problem hanging on to the one we have on loan from them.
Broadhead will sign. I know he’s had a couple of injuries but with Stewart and Simms, we won’t have to rely on him as much. The lad is absolute quality for me.
