why the hell? you have 4 possible wing forwards and 3 possible forwards, considering you play with one pure forward, 2 subs for him are enough.

yeah, the defence needs some strengthening. i think though you'll sell one or two players.
Supposedly there are €8m to spend in the market, +Riquelme, +Saviola.

I only could see Maxi and Jorquera loaned out to a Spanish team. The rest is almost sure that will stay if there isn't more signings.

whos going to be the second GK then? and i thought your midfield is a bit overloaded with all the injuries back...well, we'll see as the market goes on :).

There were rumours about the GK Prats, from Betis, who finish his contract at the end of the season too. Old and experienced. Prats or some other cheap and young GK.. We have Rüstü also loaned although it'll be impossible because he's not EU player.

Márquez has played this season as DM because we didn't have more players in that position, and although he did a great job, he can return to the defence. After the problems we've had there, I think it's ok. Edmilson and Márquez are versatile players and they'll play on the midfield or defence, they'll have chances for sure.

Iniesta played every match except Villarreal but with the arrivals of van Bommel and Ezquerro, probably he'll be the sacrificed player and also goes out loaned. But right now there are 21 players and the board wanted 22, 2 per position. If we put Márquez or Edmilson on the midfield, there's a spot as CB. With a new CB it's exaclty 22 players :)


Villarreal want Riquelme. They'll get money after selling Reina. Money+Gonzalo Rodríguez(CB) could be the next deal that we get.

Agreed.

This is the highly likely scenario.

ineista will never leave Barca, he's the kind of player every big team needs. he can play anywhere in the midfield, Am, LM, RM, DM, anywhere and that's the player i'd want at my club

Milito is close to Arsenal.

About loaning Jorquera: I think he's very good goalkeeper. It's soon to say it but maybe I like him more than Victor Valdés.

Some media say that Chelsea and Man uth are VERY interested in Etoo...

Barca to sell Saviola

Barcelona are set to sell Javier Saviola when he returns from Monaco next month, despite promising the striker a place at the club before he left last summer.

Barca president Joan Laporta told the former River Plate forward that he would be part of the Barca squad if he went out on loan for a season to Monaco, due to the club having too many non-EU players.

But the Catalan club's president has been told by coach Frank Rijkaard that Saviola does not fit into his plans.

The Dutchman wants a 22-man squad for the next campaign and would prefer to trade Saviola and Juan Roman Riquelme as a package if it would help land one of the world's top strikers.

Riquelme has spent two successful seasons on loan at Villarreal, but the Yellow Submarines are unable to sign him permanently due to his wage demands and he is set to return to Camp Nou in June.

If the pair are unable to be offloaded together, then Saviola will be the first to be shown the door with Liverpool, Valencia, Deportivo La Coruna and Atletico Madrid all having registered their interest.

Barcelona have already secured the services of midfielder Mark Van Bommel from PSV Eindhoven and forward Santi Ezquerro from Athletic Bilbao on free transfers.

Now they are in the market for a striker and Arsenal's Thierry Henry has been strongly linked with a move to the Catalan giants.

Barca have offered Gerard a new deal, but it is thought to be well below the player's expectations and he is now set to leave the club.

The deal on offer suggested that Rijkaard sees the midfielder as a back-up player and he is not prepared to accept another season of watching from the sidelines.

Monaco have expressed an interest in taking him on board in the summer and Gerard is due to travel to the principality for talks after Barcelona's Far East tour in June.

I saw on TV today that Rijkaard said he was interested in Henry.

Seriously now, is Henry an option or not? Because I wouldn't see that on TV (not on the channel I saw it) if it was BS. Is there >>any<< truth to it?
 

Drvar

if Henry comes, the squad will be unbalanced as hell, imho. Eto'o would have to leave, unless they plan to play with 2 strikers, which would turn the whole line-up around. i dont know, its just a waste of money imho, Henry would cost like 50 million. well, its your team :).

Rijkaard said he was interested in Henry...and only Henry!!!!

I don't see why you guys can' t play with both Eto'o and Henry up front. Giuly can play in an attacking midfield role.

yeah, and where are you going to fit Van Bommel, Xavi, Deco, and Ronaldinho?
Hah, maybe Barca will have a 3 man defence.
