I think that there's one piece missing. A defender or a defensive midfielder, it would depend on what you can find on the market.

Alright, now we have to get one. I hope he would mention someone (dutch). I've missed the Cruyff influence in transfers. We should have goten VDV instead of Hleb.
who you say VDV lol
VDV is just an average player, not good enough for the real topteams.
VDV lol
Cruyff has spoken. This means we will do what he says. Could you update us on the market Cruyff? And do Cruyff rate Pedro that much so he doesn't think a winger is necessary?
correct last anony.cruyff sees that our youth players can be promoted this year.the thing is he asks for a transfer in which we dont have youth cover and both keita /yaya will leave for copa.so we will have only busquets"and no marquez and xavi arent dm options"
WRONG! Why do you put words in his mouth about youth policy? Read the rest of the interview here:

The Dutchman also praised Barca's policy of bringing players in from the youth system but warned of the dangers of relying too heavily on unproven talent.
"I've always been a fan of it [the youth system], when they don't have to bear the responsibility. And later if you can add a special player like an Eto'o, Ronaldinho or Ibrahimovic, you have to buy."
So back up your claim, "cruyff sees that our youth players can be promoted this year!"
What are you talking about anony2? I think skanjos and Cruyff are in agreement. Youths should be promoted, but we can't rely too heavily on them and must also sign players when needed.
I do however think that Cruyff mentions a central defender because he sees that Pique and Marquez can play the DM when needed if a CB is brought in.
Well it's looking like were gonna get chiggy.that means our def mid problem during ANC can be covered by bidi and marquez or piqué can cover. Now we should get a winger, we are linked with many. As for people who say we need an attacking mid, I disagree. Dos santos and alcantara can cover xavi and iniesta. Yes we should not rely too much on academy but if we are never going to give a chance when will we? Jeffren did not impress too much and he should be sent on loan. What do you guys think of suarez for tje left wing?
BTW did anyone see soccernets Europe headlines? "Barcelona to Sign Chygrynskiy"
I think suarez is not good enough. He is a player for Zaragoza or Deportivo. Not for us. I say we should rather have gone for Dembele from AZ.
I do see that on ESPN. Strange they are usually not outfront of a transfer. They are usually the ones who wait till its offcial
It would have been nice signing another defensive mid, since Yaya and Keita will take part in African Nations Cup. Having said that, I have total confidense in our youth, and Busquets, Santos are capable of filling the void. Someone mentioned an article from goal? Goal happens to be the most biased football webbie on planet earth. Don`t ever believe what they say, usually its just plain rumors from other outlandish English media outlets.
There's not much time so I think we end up getting Chygrynskiy only.Thiago and JDS can handle the midfield when needed
Of course some ppl on this blog writing comments know better than some Cruyff... lol... Hulk anyone? lmao...
Miguel Veloso seems to be in the form of his life over at Sporting in Portugal, and he could be ours for about maximum of 15M. Maybe lower if we could loan some youngster to them.
He IS cup tied, but none the less!
