Juande Ramos Great manager, coached at Barcelona before, would love to take the job on for sure. However I want to stick with Rijkaard
David Albelda Too old, gets injured, and not a lone DM which we need
Daniel Alves Great player..but no defence. Unless we play him as a wingback in a 3-4-3 formation he wont work.
Carlos Tevez Yes
Diego Yes
Andrade Yes

Outs:

Frank Rijkaard No
Belletti Yes, Ill go without dinner for a few weeks so I can pay out the rest of his contract now.
Motta Unfortunately yes. I wanted to see Motta thrive, unforutanely he hasnt.
Deco yes because its obvious he is going to leave anyway
Saviola or Gudjohnsen Neither fit in our formation really. however if i had to choose one to keep it would be guddy
Marquez or Edmilson marquez no way. We need to stick with him for another season because if we let him go and he gets back on form then we have lost one of the best CB's in the world. However we need to buy a very competent defender for cover incase Marquez is crap again

Really? Cos i think he is as good at defending as he is attacking

[mazammit]

Sevilla soak up pressure...so theyll always have wingers covering fullbacks. Not to mention they have the amazing poulsen. Stick alves in our formation and Im sure he wont be able to cope.

[LaFuriaBlaugrana]

As long as we buy some real defenders instead of the sh*t we have now.

[antonk]

Sissoko? LOL. So you want a guy who can only tackle and do nothing else?

Oh my god. I agree with every single word from Maz's quotation. Am I ill? The defeat against Pool harmed me for sure.
But I disagree about Alves. I think he can both defend and attack well as every modern-type WB and there aren't such players available in the market anymore.
I also want to mention that the replacement of Deco will be very very difficult. His performance in the midfield line was the key for our success even when he had to do this job alone last season without Xavi next to him. I don't know if Diego can replace him but for sure we must see the available players for this spot. Is it Lampard, is it Diego, is it Moutinho, is it whoever else?

i don't know why people are making such a big deal about Deco.... Xavi can do the same dirty job in defense & provide the same passing in attack and maybe more accurate passing

just watch Bilbao & Zaragoza

and i won't even mention Iniesta you need other Midfielders who can do the other stuff the 3 midgets can't provide

He has strength and power which is soemthing we lack and its showed this season. I dont see why fans of other teams always laugh when a more defensive midfielder is suggested for Barca...

If you search across EPL's teams you'll find a lot of players whose only weapon is strength and power. Sissoko is good for Pool to do Benitez's job in KOs but he is not for Spain and especially Barca. Just because he was running as crazy last night doesn't make him a good player for us.

Its easy to say you can name lots of them but every time i think i can only get a list of 3 maybe top holding midfielders, not acres of them. I think Sissoko would be better for Barca, and i thought so before the game last night, i even put him in a team i made in a thread Raed posted.

Don't you think that Tevez has been ruined?

[FCB-Mo]

I think even if u put Zidane in his prime at the current West Ham team, he'd be as effective as Tevez is at the moment.
