    Wow....this actually seems genuine. Very pleased if we sign him. If we pull this off, faith will be instantly restored.

    Hopefully he's not a detail person:

    "Yeah, Gerald, just look at the league table, we're tenth and going places. Join us and we can go for Europe! We've got Richarlison and Doucouré, everything's great here. Form guide? Sorry, wi-fi's down mate, just sign here..."

    No chance. We will end up with someone like Will Buckley or Keith Gillespie.

    This one actually seems to be happening mate. Being reported in Spain as I type. Gerard Romero is very respected and knows a lot of Barcelona players personally. If he's saying it's happening, it almost certainly is.

    This. Great as a wide man but not a replacement for Gray or Deeney.

    Good news then fella. Fingers crossed.

    Just need to replace that moron Holebas, get a Deeney replacement in and sign a Central Midfielder and Centre back. No pressure.....

    A player I’ve heard of and very much look forward to him being isolated up front on his own as he stands hands on hip wondering why the hell swapped the “las ramblas... what’s it” for WD18!

    Don't worry..... He'll be impressed with the giant hornet outside McDonalds. We don't have one of those in Barcelona.

    Doesn't seem to be injury prone so can't see him fitting in here.

    As usual the deals that actually happen are the ones being done away from the rumour websites and tabloid gossip pages.

    He would be the first ever player to play for us who has scored a goal thanks to VAR.

    And probably our first ever player too to have been named in a national newspaper’s 10 Worst Players Of The Season Team.

    Though some of ours this season must be pushing for that accolade too lol.

    This is one to get excited about. I hope we'd be getting him as a wide player though and not a striker.

    Thoughts on Deulefeu, HB1? I can only assume you know more about him than most of us, seeing as you're a Barca fan.

    I would be happy with this - doesn't have to be good to win us every game, just about 5 more before the end of the season

    Yes he started as a first team player at the beginning of the season. He’s a really exciting player but not quite at the level Barca expects.

    But he was a starter until October, then dropped to the bench. Came on regularly though but then picked up a minor injury. He came back last week against Betis and played at the end of that game.

    I heard the Barca we’re willing to sell him, but I’m stunned it’s to us. Gracia must be attracting the Spanish players .

    He won’t score lots of goals but he will cause havoc and create chances. We tended to use him on the left but I believe his best position is right wing.

    Everton fans saying he's class but has a 50/60 minute engine. Maybe Gracia can draw the extra 30 mins from him? This is a much better idea than Remy ever was.
