Barca: A season to forget- Full team and required signings


            It has not been an easy season for Barcelona. Injury for Messi, suarez, dembele, de jong, griezmann, and many more. Then sacking of Ernesto Valverde, boring football in many games, failed transfers. However, we must look forward. We must not forget what happened but we shall not dwell on it. The thing about Barcelona is that the fans, including me, want great football and great results. Also, great football does not mean we can move to the flanks, we have to build through the center, conserve possession, and play beautifully. For that, we need certain type of players. Technically sound players.

So, according to me, these are the positions we have to cover and preferred signings-

Center back- Yes, we have Clement lenglet and Araujo to help pique, but pique won't be here forever. He will get old and we have two center backs without him. So, we need another. 

Players- We know we are after Eric Garcia and that is the best option according to me too. However, he is already getting minutes at Man City and neither him nor Mancity have hidden their respect for each other. So, in the case that he isn't available, we must turn our head towards Luiz Felipe from Lazio. He is tall, strong, technically sound and fast. Every possible good trait in a center back. Additionally, he is also a towering presence. 

Left back- As I already touched this subject during left back, let's move to players.

Players- Alphonso Davies would be great. But saly, we cannot invest that much amount into a single player when we can get almost as good a player for much less. That player is Alejandro Grimaldo. Playing for Lisbon, he has really shown his quality and it's time we fix our mistake and bring him back. 

Central midfielder- Again, it is fairly obvious that we need some technically sound and creative players in our ranks, like Riqui Puig.

Players- I think we do not need to buy any player, rather just promote Monchu. He is a real talent. Also, we have to bring Alena back and play between these three to add that competitiveness. Really frightening. 

That's all, if we do this, and we can you know, then we'll be almost as good as any other squad.

My Top Ten: Total Fiction- Three

No. 3. Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn Series by Mark Twain          The great American novels. The novels, set in and 'round Mississippi river, and the state of course, for all but one novel, are a jewel to read. They are humorous, rich and enjoyable. Truly one of the greatest American novels.          Plot- A painstakingly simple plot for each novel, woven around a million subplots, adding humor and there you have it. But, it is not that easy. To find the right subplot, to find the best position to add humor, even to decide on jokes, is hard. It's not that easy to satisfy neysayers and these novels have done just that.          Characters- I wasn't born in the U.S.A. and I do not know how the kids there are. But, if their lif can be this adventurous, count me in ! Mark Twain creates a bond so tight that I must believe whatever he writes. Tom steals a hot air balloon, of course he can do that.    ...

Barca: A season to forget- Left Wing/ Midfielder

THE PLAYERS- I am not considering Coutinho and Griezmann Left Wingers. 1. Ansu Fati- An  astoundingly ridiculous revelation this season, Ansu Fati will surely be a major part any success we are * hoping * for. His speed and aggressiveness is always channeled and timed well. He can create something out of very little. This is the quality we were craving for, and we have got it in the form of Ansu.  2. Pedri- I know, he is not a first team member just yet, but that is not to say he won't recieve first time action. I think when Ansu needs rest, Pedri should get some starts against less physical sides like Villarreal. Conclusion- After two seasons after Neymar left, we finally have two very good wingers on both flanks. This is definitely good ! 

My Top Ten: Total Fiction- Four

No. 4. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.  Yeah, it is not in my top three. I am disappointed too, but I can assure you, I like this book very much, it is just that I like three books more. It is Paulo Coelho's best work by far and understandably. According to him, it is based on Wisdom. It is more about dreams and how to chase them. Plot- A boy has had a dream, there is a treasure below the pyramids in Egypt and he sets off to find it. Oh, how simple that seems and yet I have barely seen a novel more difficult to get the true essence. His journey is filled with extra-ordinary coincidences and incidents, making the journey adventurous and also giving a scope for some wisdom to be shared. A book like no other, This is the first book I'd recommend to instill a reading habit.  Characters- Santiago....Melchizedek....the alchemist....the shopkeeper.... all of these characters have a separate soul. A person we could identify, not one we could relate with the author in any way. This is a...
