13M on an average reserve keeper and you expect people to think it's a normal piece of business? I wouldn't.
That was my first post here BTW, in ages.

I only watched Cillessen play in the last World Cup and he looked pretty bad, so why exactly is Barça getting him?
I thought he was reasonably promising at the World Cup, but he hasn't gotten any better since. Very shaky and prone to mistakes, also in recent important games. I saw somewhere Luis Enrique wants a goalkeeper who's good on the ball, but that's not one of his qualities at all. If anything he gets players into trouble. Good reflexes though. I guess he'll be back starting at a lower level (perhaps Ajax) once he gets tired of the bench, because he was just right for a club like Ajax.

I wonder if Barca were just like "he's at Ajax, so he must be good with his feet!"

He is not from Ajax academy i think?


Samper to Granada is a very smart move, Jemez is the right coach for him remember how it worked for Saúl Ñiguez the season he played at Rayo.

Alcácer seems to be our next move. For a 4th striker he seems alright, but I prefer Gabriel Barbosa; this guy is just a beast. He has a lot of potential. I've seen him play in the Brasileirao and he's very promising. He could become a great player learning with the best in Barcelona.
 

Xaviesta

Starting XI
We tried very hard with Gabigol and Gabriel Jesus but we couldn't sign them. They are promising but they are moving to Europe too soon.

Paco is 22 and has great potential. Having him as our 4th striker is amazing and we are lucky.

Barça only scouted Gabigol, never made an official bid. GJesus case is different, Man City outbid everyone.

He might be a tactic solution if Lucho wants to Play with double 9 as well, the last global player Messi version allows that.
 

Xaviesta

Starting XI
He does have potential. 43 goals in 3 seasons at Valencia is very good. He's 22 now. Anyway, I am very curious to see how he does in our team, I expect him to score at least 15 goals if he adapts fast.
