    Used to really like Barca but I’d be happy to see this all blow up on them.

    Disgraceful way to run a club.

    If I was Pique, Busquetes, De Jong I would make a point of running my contract down at full pay. * are splashing the cash whilst asking players who are legends there to take pay cuts

    Madness what Barca are doing.

    Quite looking forward to watching them this season though to be honest, just to see how it plays out :giggle1:

    So Man Utd, who have had a mess of a dressing room in terms of attitude, cliques, downing tools etc…are now trying to sign Arnautovic and Rabiot.

    Two players with, famously, spot on attitudes who never get above their station.

    Understand the difference between transfer fees and wages, they are not equivalent when it comes to Liga FFP

    Pique & Busquets would never think of sinking the club, they will agree to reducing their exorbitant salaries that Bartomeu agreed to

    The new players must be on decent wages though, will they not?

    my point was the new players wont be on peanuts. They're asking players to take paycuts whilst adding to the wage bill.

    Braithwaite for example granted he shouldn't even be at Barca in the first instance as he's nowhere near good enough but he has been asked to take a pay cut whilst the club splash the cash on Lewandowski who will be on a * of a lot more than Braithwaite I would imagine

    Braithwaite is asking to be paid for the next 2 years of contract even though he has an offer to triple his wages in Saudi. Barca want to release him since he won’t agree to a transfer. Barca invested a transfer fee in him, even if Bartomeu overpaid. Even canceling the contract they come out in the red but refusing to be transferred or terminate the contract is greed on part of player- he wants his cake and to eat it too

    They are cutting the high wage earners from Bartomeu’s era of exorbitant wages and sticking to a reasonable wage model. Only a few outstanding holdouts (Pjanic, Umtiti, FDJ + reducing Piqué & Busquets’ wages) - minimum of 2 of them will not be in the squad for the season

    So Braithwaite is doing nothing wrong ? He either wants to stay or wants his contract paid up to be released which is the norm for footballers.

    Refusing to be transferred and refusing to terminate his contract so that he can earn wages from two different clubs simultaneously? Not the norm, in any line of work

    He's under contract to Barca if he doesn't want to leave he can't be forced ... unless he gets paid up and released

    We get it, they’re financial doping to the max. Hope Man City and PSG spank you about the bit.

    Hoping two petrol state clubs spank a member owned club, nothing hypocritical about that desire while lamenting financial doping

    What you should get is that like many cynics you have been wrong
