Final trick up Barca' sleeve...

The one where their highest earner is signed off

Not only did they sign some of our top transfer targets they're also going to use us to help them register their players by selling us their deadwood.

That’s what city did with Sterling yet you had no issue and nor me

Sterling’s a great plate, one teams discards is another teams treasure

We need a midfielder
We need a striker

De Jong and Auba make perfect sense

Barca will manipulate and register somehow anyway so we might as well take two very good players and upgrades on what we have

I'm glad they did sign Kounde & Raphinha.

Losing top 5 CB in Europe is the kick in the gut
He'll go on to win plenty at Barca, maybe even the CL again as a key player under Xavi. Strong squad assembled.

Conversely they are helping us by taking Alonso away.
I had hoped his compatriot would have joined him over their too.
