Gerard Deulofeu - Once a Blue, always a Blue

[FCBarça]

I think Song should be moved this winter to make room for both Roberto & Rafinha...I think if Deulo is being recalled then at least one attacking player from the current squad will be sold.

Rafinha will get minutes since the midfield needs rotation in terms of it's depth...Right now the attacking depth is such that already Tello & Pedro are unhappy with their minutes although Rodriguez is seeing more right now due to Leo's injury...That will change in January...So I can't see the squad staying the same if it's going to include Gerard

I still think Deulofeu has lots of things to work on in his game but if Tata rotates better, he could be a useful weapon due to his goalscoring prowess...I imagine the club looks at how smoothly he's transitioned to the Premiership and feel he's best served continuing his formation at Barcelona rather than at another club

Need?...I think both could help the squad but both would surely see their minutes plummet as well

Fair points...wonder what the lads think about the idea of sacrificing their playing time for squad depth.

Cheers for the assessment.

You still pretending to be a Barcelona fan lad?

You're American for [Poor language removed] sake. Stop pretending you're dead Spanish.

Thank goodness I've got that NFL abomination to fall back on....

Hope he stays another season, he will be some player.

re Deulofeu : I have to say that there is a lot of bull**** conjecture, 'will he/,won't he be here next season' going on in this thread.

Nobody contributing to this forum has ANY idea as to the answer. So just let it rest (FFS!!) at : Gerald Deulofeu is on loan to Everton FC for the 2013/14 EPL season.

End of

It's getting boring listening to it all

Not conjecture to post a story from the club paper

At the beginning of the season, I would've guessed it being a 2 year loan but there's now no reason to believe his development shouldn't continue at his club, according to Tata Martino

Substantially, he's scored a couple of goals and been a bit part player. Very selfish player too - if he continues that I cant see him winning many admirers amongst Barcelona teammates should he ever crack their first team.

I wouldn't be too devastated if he left, tbh. We'll get a good replacement in the summer.

How much would he cost to buy

How much would he cost to buy

€35 million, contracted through 2017....Meeting the fee is one thing, having the player to agree is yet another...He was always going to return, it was simply a loan

How much would he cost to buy

no chance buying him. He would want massive wages and tbh If I were playing for Barca who he supports I wouldn't leave the lifestyle in Spain to live in England

How much do everton have then

How much do everton have then

he's not worth 35m, Jr. Del's market value would be about 15m. 20m if there was a bidding war. No one is worth 35m after so little playing time.

We might be able to afford that. Martinez reckons it's always just gonna be a loan anyway, as Barca will want their kid back eventually.

Alcaraz perhaps, but Kone has a bit of a history of being crap. He was actually painful to watch at Sevilla.

Pretty sure arteta was very average at rangers! Henry a sub previous to wenger taking him to arse! If you'd look at mata based on just this season he'd be worth 5M.

Kone has been a disaster so far, yet that is due to injury and being starving hungry pre-season. I still think he'll become a usefull squad member...better than both vic and jela!

Arteta was pretty much anonymous for Rangers, to be fair...
