Use to love the Man but I'm enjoying how he became a nothing player just leeching money out of United wish it would continue for another couple of years and then he can go back to chile and no one will even remember his name.

Alexis is going to retire a rich man with many achievements however he should have got a lot more out of his career.

Apart from his time at Udinese and Arsenal he has been a bit part player, he could have been Chile's best ever player.

Barca is the most stupid club in the world. Insisting to buy Coutinho for about a year, and they easily gave up after 1.5 year and spending more than 100m.

They have been clueless in the market for years, its like they have no idea what they even want out of the signings and a lot of them are just straight up suspect;

Paulinho
Coutinho
Malcolm
Vidal
Boateng
Semedo
D. Suarez
Alacer
Digne
Arda Turan
Song
Vermaelen
Hleb

The list with them can go on and on with strange signings.

Even Dembele, huge prospect but talks about letting him go for Neymar?

Fabregas, they tapped him up for years and then ditched not long after.

Wasn't Raul responsible for a few of them? :lol:

I agree in general, but some of the names on your list don't fit imo.

Semedo is class, they don't even agree on selling him to PSG for that matter to get Neymar.
Song and Hleb could've been great as they were pretty good here, but the quality of their side was just too much. Alcacer had the problem of Suarez, probably no one would've pushed him out..

Vidal was a good buy and might/should've helped getting a CL title, Malcom is probably still a profit and so was Paulinho who even played good for them even though I was shocked initally as well.

Boateng, Arda, Digne, Vermaelen were just weird. Coutinho didn't fit, so a bad choice too.

I would not say they only make bad deals, it's more that they could do so much better. They basically can get whoever they want and they aren't taking full advantage of that.

Barca always been **** at transfers. All those dodgy Brazilian kids for around 8-10m, that Ukranian center back for 25m & crazy Ibra swap deal.

Their main problem though just the academy run dry. Guess they only keep signing other peoples super expensive attackers as scared what happens when Messis legs go. Madrid are pretty stacked with u23s.

Other teams have also caught km the academy level. Got in good coaches and staff, recruited well.

Many other options for young layers to chose f lm for their formative years.
