A replacement for Merida? Why not.
And yes he isnt Spanish, thank God.

From what I've heard, this guy is the business.
On a free, I definitely wouldn't say no.

Bendtners Danish, Arshavins Russian, being Spanish isn't necessarily the problem!

True.
And there is really one way to address this "DNA" issue. We need to bring it home, and bring it home regularly.

Re: Guy Assulin - Free Transfer
We're already developing Wilshere and Ramsey, and have the likes of Lansbury coming through our academy. Why should we waste resources on developing yet another La Masia graduate? If he turns out ****, it's a waste of time. If he turns out brilliant, his 'Barcelona DNA' will want him to 'come home' before he hits his prime.
I'd rather we developed our own academy products, or at the very least avoided Catalunya for a while.

Re: Guy Assulin - Free Transfer
If Wenger thinks this guy is worth it, I'd be excited to see him join.
As much as we're currently hating the Cesc drama, he's been a success at this club, both professionally, and if he goes to Barca, financially.
Plus, I think it would piss Barca off.

Re: Guy Assulin - Free Transfer
So we should refuse a player on the basis that one day he might want to go to Barcelona? I've never heard anything more ridiculous.
Speaking of Assulin, he is a very good talent who could be a major hit here. He is ideal for the flanks, quick, skillful and real desire to attack opponents.
WTF happened to my avatar?

Re: Guy Assulin - Free Transfer
Wilshere and Ramsey are also attacking mids, who have more potential. If Assulin came, he would be in the same situation as Merida (too many in front).

Re: Guy Assulin - Free Transfer
He can play attacking midfield. Why not have Vela as well as Assulin? The best youth system is one which creates an atmosphere of 'survival of the fittest', as opposed to earmarking roles for youngsters for the future. You can never have too many talents.

I think I read somewhere about three years ago that Barcelona employed people to try and stop other scouts from checking him out. They really rated him at one point at least! I don't think it could hurt if we did get him!

Your happy for players to see us as a stepping stone to bigger and better things? We'll never be successful if we have to keep selling our best players.

Re: Guy Assulin - Free Transfer
So from what I understand, he lit up Barcelona B when Pep was the coach, is highly rated within Barca as a whole, has played a few times for the A team, and has not been offered a new contract?
What the heck? Has anyone actually seen him play?

Re: Guy Assulin - Free Transfer
It all comes down to the simple question of his current ability and whether or not he will improve our chances of winning something.
I couldn't care less about anyone thinking of us as a stepping stone, to be perfectly honest; just come here, do your job and promptly try to win something, even if it is for your own agenda. Cesc, Arshavin and Bendtner can cream themselves all day long over Barca, but it's our job, one season at a time, to try to get the best out of them so that we can have a better shot at silverware.
Once the trophy cabinet is not oh so empty, I doubt that we would miss any of these glory hunters. They will always have to think twice about an opportunity to play elsewhere because they could already be at the very best football club without having a single clue about it.

Re: Guy Assulin - Free Transfer
well if we gonna have so little regard for young players and just see them procentage game where the more you have, the more likely one is too improve, then why expect them to have any loyalties towards the club? Its not ideal to have too many young talents stand in the way of each other, in the end it will effect their improvement

So your solution to us not losing our quality players is to not signs them in the first place?
