Is Alcantara really what we need though? From what I've gathered he's mainly a central attacking midfielder.

Haven't seen that many 5′ 8″ players impose their physicality and box to box style in the PL
 
Quite a few in the Barcelona forum don't seem overly bothered if he leaves. I guess that is natural when you already have Xavi, Iniesta etc...
 
They know we're watching. It's like being in prison. If you drop the soap, you're not going to bend over ;)
 
Their English on that Barca forum is very good. It's better than most of the English speaking posters on here.

Impressive.

It's entirely in English actually, my resident forum. Run by a terrific guy, used to be better but the last year or so has seen a ridiculous influx of bandwagon fans and younger fans - a bit in transition I'd say
 
What's the feeling in Spain about Thiago? Is it just here in the UK he's being strongly linked with us?

Sport said that he's decided to leave and that Man Utd and Bayern Munich were the likeliest destinations.

If I'm being honest I do think he'll end up staying, but I hope we try everything to get him.

I feel so too. But he's 22 and Barcelona currently have four midfielders that are better than him. Hopefully he's frustrated as feck.

There's nothing really new, it's been speculated for weeks now that he's more out than in. I imagine we'll get a better feel for things soon
 
I think he'll get a bumper contract at Barcelona, and end up staying, at least another season. Barcelona have too much at stake financially to just give up on a player worth at least twice the sell on clause.
