Barca still want ter Stegan as their first choice, nothing has changed. They'll look to Reina if he isn't available at a suitable price.
No, he was the most promising young English striker in the league at a time when 6-5 meant a premium on English players. He was a loyal Geordie who had to be pushed out the door by Newcastle so took some time to settle. The same thing happened when he was shoved out of our door. He was a player widely described as "unplayable" when he did settle but was simply unplayable in Brendan's Plan A, which is the only plan he has. He was the player most England fans wanted to replace Rooney with in the Euros. He was 22 and if Lucas has learned you anything about judging young players too hastily, it's time you started showing it. So anyway, word is Napoli want Lucas. Under Rafa? I think that's going to happen.
