Just because of this? If that's the case then not a single Barcelona based journo have any credibility left considering they didn't report anything on it right before Barca's confirmation.

Who claimed there were any credible sources in Barcelona? There are confirmatory ones that are effectively given some degree of insider access like Xavi Campos, RAC1 & COPE - but none of them are infallible
 
Are you blind or???
Different standards I guess. Calling him ugly would've been too harsh on my part but in my opinion he is certainly closer to ugliness than to handsomeness if we're talking extremes. His nose, those awful whiskers, the dopey look...
 
Arda really has no place in a 4-3-3 for a top 2 or 3 club in Europe. I think he'd do well for lots of teams, like in the Giacherrini role for Conte at Chelsea, plugging a hole at RW for us (could push Martial up high and play a sort of Real Madrid with Ronaldo 4-2-2-2) or for Arsenal.

Arda from Atletico days would be a big upgrade on Rakitic in RCM slot, but it looks like the there was truth when media passed Arda statement how he doesnt want to run anymore and wants to play football. Lazy bastard sealed his career at top level with that statement/mentality change.
 
Andre Gomes is supposed to be handsome?
 
Eh, Simeone seems to be getting great performances from lots of guys. Juanfran for Spain, Filipe Luis for Chelsea and Brazil in particular come to mind. Also Torres being useful, Carrasco looking the finished article for Atletico but not at Monaco months prior (age/experience might be the reason here) or Belgium.
I don't think that applies to everyone though. Lots of Atletico players have done well at other clubs like Curtois, Costa, De Gea, Aguero, Augusto. And many players have not done well at Atletico like Jackson Martinez, Vietto(although he's still young), Cani, Alderweireld. Carrasco is also not the finished article at Atletico which is why he is not a guaranteed starter, he has improved his work rate a LOT and has improved as a player but he was also good for Monaco and was leading their assists stats even though he was inconsistent. Young pacey dribblers are always inconsistent. Felipe Luis wasn't bad at Chelsea, Mourinho just had loyalties to Ivanovic who was terrible last season. Ideally Ivanovic would be dropped and Azpilicuate moved right to accommodate Luis. Juanfran has also done well for Spain.
 

Out of all these options, we would be happy to help United or other rich teams by offloading Turan. Please contact Barto ASAP!
 
Anyone that follows La Liga, how has this guy been since joining Barca? I remember us being linked with him over the summer...
 
The few times that I watched him for Valencia he looked good. Average in the Euros though.
