They have better players in La Masia and on their bench already...like Thiago. I don't think they should be spending 37 million on him. I'm also ready for Financial Fair Play to come into effect. As much as I love the transfer windows, having Barcelona spend 70-80 million and only sell 10-20 million worth while they are 600+ million in debt is just ridiculous. Also, the valuations of these players out of of control! Quote Link to comment
