Gerard Deulofeu

I really do hope that Barca never activate the buyback clause as I do think Del is the real deal and can be a world beater. I really do think he has the natural ability to be that good.
Yes... unfortunately I think Barcelona also agree with you. I suspect they will be exercising their option

In a weird way we might be lucky that Martinez completely ruined him (and his confidence) last season, don't we get more money the longer he stays? Hopefully this season we'll see him back to his assist machine best.

"The player cannot be bought back in January, nor could Barcelona swoop for Deulofeu simply to sell him on immediately for a profit.

"They can't do that," he explained at a news conference. "There are certain things in the deal. They can't take him back in the winter so they can't take him back in January. It can only be at the end of the season. It is €9m for the first year and €12m in the second year.

"If they take him back they can't sell him for a season, so he has to stay in the first-team squad for a season. At the end of that if they decide to sell him we have got first rights of getting him back or we have got a big percentage of that deal.""
 

barca won't buy him back regardless of how well he does next season imo. This is a team that saw alexis sanchez and pedro ... and now possibly rakitic, as not good enough. Deulofeu is fantastic potential, but miles away from their standards.

This.

And we need to develop him the same way Utd did with Ronadldo, wide and as a striker, I see that as his long term position he will never be able to defend enough to play on the wing.
 
It appers that koeman is trying out Davies at RB and Deulofeu at CF to see if he needs backup signings or they can fill in there if needed.

However if he goes 3 at the back with wing backs then he would need Deulofeu and Mirallas to be CFs or they wouldnt get a game.

Interesting that hes following Ronaldos path of dribbling then adding crossing and then being used up front.
 
Can't see him playing as a lone striker.

Doing well in a pre season game at Oakwell is no real indication.

He simply does not have the physique to play that role regularly in the Prem
