Has there ever been a bigger investment, flop and denial by the team about it?

Selling Ibra and eto'o was about showing who the boss was.

no. coutinho is an abysmally idiotic cretin, doesn't do anything ANY GAME, fucking piece of shit should go fuck himself already, what a fucking annoying twat

Kaka for 50m

btw that would be over 100m in thw current market

he didnt really flop, just got fucked by injuries

Monsanto

It's just casuals parroting what the media says about him. The Neymar purchase was one of the few ones that were really worth it: they bought someone real wanted too, they won everything and they sold him with great profit
Nerman is a great player and larpers + Norman's need to accept that

the GOAT purchase and sell is Dembele

paid basically nothign for him and got 100 milly the next year LOL

Alexis Sanchez is the biggest flop ever. High expectations, high wages and was supposed to close the gap between City and United. Torres and Morata were pretty bad deals as well.

No chance. Despite how fucking awful he is, there was no transfer fee involved. Coutinho is far worse.

retard

Do you think if you buy a car paying no intial fee and just monthly rates, you got it for free?

Pogba is their best player

can't pork the Zorc

Sancho costs even less and will sell for even more

>selling Etoo
>selling Ibrahimovic
didn't need either of them lol literally won everything right after selling them
>buying Sanchez
not bad at all and made some money of selling him
>buying Neymar
won treble and made more money by selling him
>buying Coutinho
literally the only bad buy

He's doing alright now, which is pretty surprising

They ended up paying like 35m. Still over 60m profit in a season though

Neymar was never a bad deal.He could have stayed and Barcelona would dominate with no competition. It was his fathers dullhead.

Neymar is Kyrie Irving

I suppose it's relative. When you think Lazio paid ~50m for Mendieta in 2001, who was probably the best midfielder around at the time, and for him to flop, be pushed out a year later and Lazio make nothing back in transfer fees for him, I would suggest that is a bigger investment, flop and denial.

Barca will at least make something back on what they've paid out so far, as long as they offload him this summer so they don't have to pay the add-ons

Barsa is not getting more than 70M for him though

I suppose we will see, PSG and Man U would probably pay more and it's at least some money recovered and he's off the wage bill as well.

I-It w-was his father... Dumb uefalona cucks.

Neymar didn't have to leave, you know.

Neymar queria que le pagasen como a Messi. Obviamente eso nunca iba a pasar.
Deportivamente hablando, él se excuso diciendo que no queria estar en la sombra de messi, pero resulta que ahora está en la sombra de Mbappe en un equipo sin competición donde no es ni la mitad de jugador que era en el Barcelona, estará contento con su paga imagino. La avaricia es un pecado.

What denial? He was literally booed off the pitch against Liverpool at Camp Nou

But everybody knows Barcelona is in a hurry to sell him, which will lower his price

But they bought got him with nerman money so it's not quite the same

I don't think we can claim to know exactly how things will work out here. The transfer market these days is such an enigma that I don't think anyone would be surprised if a club like PSG paid an obscene amount for him. I do think that no club will pay the €400m release clause, that's pretty obivous, and Barca will make a loss on what they've paid so far for him

They try to sell him at 90-100M and they risk failing to get a buyer, just like Real with Bayol.

He's had 2 shit seasons. No one is paying big for him

Again, you simply don't know this.

What is 'big' in your mind?

Neymar didn't flop in Barcelona and probably made them some profit when they sold him to PSG.

Over 60mil

Of course he made them profit, even when you take into consideration his initial transfer fee, bonuses and salary. The money Barca made from image rights, and the sale to PSG will have trumped any outlay.

I should know better than to engage kiwi trolls.

>you simply don't know this
Barsa doesn't want him because he sucks
If Barsa fails to sell him, they will have to pay extra 20M because he will complete 100 games during the next season and 30M for his salary + taxes = 50M.
Everybody else knows this and the clubs that are interested in him and can afford his high salary and are desesperante enough to buy him are just manure and PSG. And these clubs will be focused on getting the Ajax players instead of Cuntinho

Dembele is still young. Works hard to be back on time after injuries. Yeah he did that sitter against liverpool but he has lost his form for lack of play because they gotta force coutinho up front.

Countinho's salary in 12m
I'm obviously arguing with a 'tard here.

+Taxes you retard

Where the fuck are you getting 18m in taxes from???
This is academic anyway. Barca will still recover money if they sell him in the summer. He wont be leaving for free. That was the point.

1. He gets paid €14M Euros, not bong rupees
2. In Catalonia the income tax is 48%, which you need to add social security cost and cost for the employer
I didn't include the extra salary for winning la liga

So not 18m in taxes then. You've just plucked that number out of your arse.
>This is academic anyway
Literally not understanding what this means.

>So not 18m in taxes then.
Never said 18M in taxes you brainlet paki. >You've just plucked that number out of your arse.
Fucking look up his salary on google
And Catalonia tax rates

You inbreeded pakis sure are stupid

What did I say wrong?

>Buying Nerman
>Buying BOSS

I mean, those two were very good deals and it worked for them. Hell, with Nerman they won the treble

>Never said 18M in taxes you brainlet paki.
>You've just plucked that number out of your arse.
See>30M for his salary + taxes = 50M.
His salary is 12m
You're still arguing a completely redundant point that literally has nothing to do the response I made to the OP which you've not even understood and then sperged out shrieking about pakis without a sense of irony given you're a greasy Moor shitskin.

WTF has any of this got to do with this post??? If Barca offload him this summer they are not going to do it for free, they will recover some of of the transfer fee they paid Liverpool. What are you struggling to understand about this, you angry wog?

What can you expect from someone who worships a 14-year-old?

Learn to fucking read
> they will have to PAY EXTRA 20M because he will COMPLETE 100 games during the next season and 30M for his salary + taxes = 50M. It's you who keep saying 12M, when you are clearly thinking in bong rupees and not in the currency he's getting paid, which is in Euros.

And about your other post, I was just telling you they are not going to be able to sell him for more than 70M because clubs know they are in a hurry to sell coutinho due to the reasons I stated and which you fail to understand because your paki mom her paki brother and gave birth to you.

I love how you not only misunderstand my post, but your own too. lmao
Fucking dumb shitskin. You cannot even explain where the excessive taxes are coming from, you greasy cunt.
Deary me, go play with the traffic.

>You: barça will at least make something back
>Me: they are probably not going to be able to sell him for more than 70m
>You: I disagree, muh psg, manu (implying they are going to pay a shitload more money)
>Me: no because Coutinho will cost them like 50m. So barça is in a hurry to sell him cheap or else they get to keep the player and pay 50m during the next season
>You: hurrdurr where does 18m taxes come from, this has nothing to do with what I said, I cant into math!
>You cannot even explain where the excessive taxes are coming from
I literally pasted a link with the tax rates in Catalonia you stupid poo. Do you know how do taxes work? Since the €14m (£12m for you sperg) are NET income (after taxes), you need €27m so the 48% or €13m becomes income tax and the 14m net income the player receives, you fucking brainlet. No fucking wonder webm related is real

And with that you've made it clear yet again that not only did you not misunderstand my post, but your own too.
Imagine spending all this time arguing a point you didn't get and was completely academic in the first place.
You spics really are a diseased bunch of oily cunts.

countinho's salary figure is not net income after taxes lmao

Exactly this

buying neymar cost barca at least 150m. inflation is real so barca didnt really make that much profit or him

Stop with your K-pop shit.

Explain

Veron (twice). Actually come to think of it, Chelsea made some risky signings that worked out great (Drogba from Dijon, the not-very-balding-yet-LCIM, Carvalho/Ferreira that Jose brought over), meanwhile a few times they paid top shekels for one of the best players in the World who fucking flopped (Sheva/Mutu/Ballack). Their Eredivisie signings also were a cointoss: LCIM worked great, but remember Mateja Kezman? Or Khalid Boulharouz? ABRAMOVICH PAYING OVERPRICED FEES WITH HIS OIL SHEKELS SET THE PRECEDENT FOR THIS FAGGOTRY WE NOW NOTICE WITH MAN CITY AND PSG.

>ABRAMOVICH PAYING OVERPRICED FEES WITH HIS OIL SHEKELS SET THE PRECEDENT FOR THIS FAGGOTRY WE NOW NOTICE WITH MAN CITY AND PSG.
It was doomed to happen since the creation of the premier league in 1992, abramovitch and his big money signings are just a consequence of that event

It literally happened before that though with Moores at Liverpool.

Speaking of Liverpool, it’s their fault that safe standing isn’t allowed, which is one reason why atmospheres over here are so shit

Jack Walker spent a bit on Shearer and Sutton in 1995, it brought Blackburn one (1) trophy after which they went back to irrelevancy within 3 seasons, Leeds and Lestah (pre-2001) nearly went into administration and had to either hold a garage sale for all their players (Leeds - robbie keane/robinson/kewell/viduka/that south african dude) or hold fucking Walker's crisps telethon fundraisers by Lineker to avoid doing a Rangers/Wimbledon. Chelsea were actually very close to that wituation before being bought at the right time. It wasn't even financial fair play rules, just lack of true profitability fucking with balancing the books. Until billionaires with endless liquidity started buying clubs that is.

i
In part, yeah. Football in this country was moving towards seating though before that as it was seen as a measure to combat hooliganism. Hillsborough basically accelerated the decision to enforce it mind, and because of that anxieties still exist about returning to standing as literally any accident that might happen and people will start squealing about >le 96 and someone will end up being prosecuted so I think they're reluctant to introduce it.

Shame really as I much preferred standing in the old Holgate at Ayresome Park when I was a kid than sitting in the wank seats at the Riverside and have fascist stewards threaten to kick me out of I don't sit down.

>sell Torres
>buy Carroll and Suarez

seems like a good piece of business to me

Torres wasn't bad deal, he might be not goal - monster anymore like when he played with Liverpool but without his contribution, there will be no UCL in 2012 and European League trophy in 2013.

Yo quiero taco bell too
