Let's hope that's true, so that we'll buy a big keeper...

I can't see Valdes leaving. I am sure a compromise will be reached and he will stay at Barca. He won't be paid what he wants or anything like Iker but a middle ground will be reached. Barca going 'after' Buffon and Cech is just a smokescreen to keep Valdes on his toes. I just hope Eto'o stays.

i hope it is not a smokescreen. victor is a solid keeper. he had some good games as well as some bad ones. overall i wouldnt say he is a sefety in the goal. there are times when i am stiff as a board when a high ball is coming into the paint. with buffon or cech i would certainly feel that warm feeling of having a WORLD-CLASS keeper after a looong loong time. club as barca simply have to have great players, not just good ones. i am not saying gigi or peter is coming , but i would certainly like to see that.

if that is not the case, at least get asenjo for god´s sake, he is (almost) as good as v.v. already and still just 19 years old kid!! if i am not mistaken he has a buyout clause of 5,5M - that is a bargain!!!!!! if we can have players coming for three times bigger amount of money to sit of the bench, we can have a super talent for 5 mil for sure. i cant believe v.v. is asking big money as he was one of the best.. there are many goalkeepers able to deliver at least that good performances...

I can't see the club spending 30M+ on a new goalkeeper that only would be slightly better then Valdes. To be honest it's not exactly the most important position in a club like Barca. I hope the board will look to strengthen other positions before looking at the goalkeeper. We need lefback, rightback, striker and leftwinger before we sign a new goalkeeper.

Simon P is right. We've been lucky in that Sylvinho hasn't really been tested in Abidal's absence. We also lack a solid replacement for Alves. Both are vastly more critical than the keeper. Valdes is fine. Not the best on the planet, but he's of more than sufficient quality for the side.

Barcelona needs to focus on the right back before buying a goalkeeper and abidal is great in the left back and wont be easy to replace. I think we need to buy SERGIO ASENJO from VALLADOLID and RAFINHA from SHALKE 04 and DAVID VILLA from VALENCIA. I think ETO'O must stay because he is an important player that dominates the offence, MY fowards for BARCELONA is ETO'O, BOJAN, MESSI and VILLA
