Deco should be sacked no one wants diaz
With. What. Money. 🤷🏽♂️
If I am Madrid, I will start calling for Odegaard , Vitinha or Reijnders , and see who flinches. All i need is one that I can pair with Tchouameni or Camavinga and that will be enough!!!! imagine a Xavi Alonzo 3-4-2-1 or 3-4-3 and in the midfield you have Valverde, Vitinha,Tchouameni and Camavinga or Rejinders and the 3 upfront is Vini, Mbappe and Jude belingham. forget Kross or Modric thats enough fire imagine they also go and buy a pure 9 and put it on the bench???
I don’t know who will Barcelona get or FFP allow to sign anyone at all.
Diaz wouldn’t be on the bench hahahaha. Raphinha will get moved to the attacking midfielder position to play behind Lewy which tbh is where he thrives
They said the same when raphinha went to barcelona .. to sit on the bench
Modric – First player to break the Messi/Cristiano Ballon d'Or streak. Such class.
I’ll miss you Modric 😢 as a barca fan I admit he’s definitely a legend of the game.
Barça just needed to go for Tah and Gyokeres, maybe kimmich was looking to exit Bayern and we needed a defensive player. Also can play RB and CDM
Love Luka
Luis Diaz is 28 & is on 55K a week…. He can easily get triple or more elsewhere. He's looking for last big deal. He wants either a new contract from Pool this summer or next or he'll be gone & sold either this summer or more likely next – he'll have 12 months on his contract in 2026
Always love when Ian’s on the show
McTominay, Rashford, Antony…. and the list goes on.
Lol!
Even as a Barca fan, Modric is a player I just cannot hate on.
Diaz is literally on nothing for the role he plays in the team. He needs a better deal.
The judge of the Investigating Court 1 of Barcelona, who is investigating the payments to the former vice president of the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA) José María Enríquez Negreira by Fútbol Club Barcelona (FCB), maintains that these payments caused an alleged "systemic corruption" in the refereeing establishment.
We want lookman
Luka Modric – what a player and what a career!!
pirlo and modric ❤❤❤
Modric best midfielder of all time
Wait so modric has now more Champions league wins than Ronaldo ?
Considering some questioned his transfer to Real Madrid at the beginning, yet he is a true legend of the game and the club and for country as well. Nothing flash or grand about Modric, he always played with a smile and like he was just playing in the park like a happy kid. The next generation should look to him about style, class, longevity and simply enjoying the football rather than worry about social media or wages
I'm not sure about Rashford , but look at what flick has done with la masia players
Get Flick the players he want, whoever it maybe!!!!
nope, man utd just want to sell toxic wasted man utd player. just go promote him to another club, don't waste these la masia youngsters with this ruined player. Imagine if rasford come from training with his lamborgini while other youngster only use decent car , and he doesn't have anything else to proud of.
Blaugrana forever teddy katalunya ziwani buru emba
Doesn't like to mention players from other clubs but made sure to drop names of players he doesn't want to mention that he's interested in. That's a slick way to do it.
28 titles, Stevie. Don't take inches off his-
The best center mid of all time.
BDor.
6 UCL.
Took minnow to WC Final, WC BDor.
28 titles (first at 27 as he was at Spurs).
13 years for the most demanding club itw.
Long and short passes. Tempo dictation. Dribbling. Tackling. Positioning. Shooting. Intelligence. Big game player.
Number 1 for me.
why don’t show the question as well?? He was asked Do you like Diaz, Rashford? He didn’t take names by himself
Rashford is a worse ansu fati
Stevie don't forget most of the player's dream (especially South American players) dreams of playing for Barca or Real Madrid
He’s just name dropping for publicity. He knows rashford and Diaz wouldn’t cut it.
i wont be surprised wen deco says he likes modric
I wouldn't buy anything If I were Barcelona, i would start saving for a great 9 to replace Lewandoski
We don't need rashford at barca we need osimhen or Watkins rashford is done he cannot replace Lewandowski and he's a them.
Who is really pushing for this rashford move cause this is a mistake
Seriously??? If this is the best we can do just leave the youngsters alone. We need some help in defense on set pieces, scoring hasn't been an issue
Rashford should come to us bayern munich ❤ and win trophies
Luis Diaz will not sit on the bench.
Modric looks a little off to me
ESPN is scared of Luis Diaz move to Barcelona.
Modric is a good player ,not a great one. He's just overrated. I will take Ivan Rakitic over him.
Luka Modric, most amazing football player:
6 trophies with Dinamo Zagreb
28 trophies with Real Madrid
2 WC medals with Croatia's national team (1 silver 1 bronze)
1 silver medal from last Nations League final against Spain
Golden ball winner while running against Ronaldo and Messi
I can't think of any other player with so many decorations…
Oh god keep rashford away from Barcelona pleaseeeee 😂
