For a president who found a club immersed in debt, long wide and unbreakable contracts for players that they don't deserve at all. It's arguable that Laporta did a relatively good Mercato and why not excellent:
- Got rid of the two highest salaries in the team (Messi and Griezmann) and all attention is directed to Coutinho now since he is the highest salary currently, either cut or leave.
- Supporting the team with a player who has proven his quality since the first round (Depay) with a reasonable salary, waiting for the return of the rest of the free deals (Aguero, Garcia and Luke de Jong)
- He inserted approximately 60 ~ € 70 m into the club's treasuries through many deals pending completion of Atletico's purchase for Griezmann next season so the total is more than 100 million.
- Reducing the salaries of the three leaders.
- Reducing the salaries of both Umtiti and Pjanic, waiting to get rid of them and the rest of the disabilities gradually and at the earliest time.
=> We don't deny that Laporta made many false promises, but for those who rule his mind, he will find that he is right in most of what he did, the team, for example, did not make any achievements in 6 years despite Messi's existence!! What is it? It would be different if Messi stayed this year too?, Not a deficiency from Messi, but the barca of him starting a new era already.
As for the cows, the turn is coming for them, just a beautiful patience 🤌
I also noticed several posts about the Perez shark deception of Alaporta!, Where is Mbappe now? Of course in Paris, it was clear from the beginning that Laporta leaned on Perez and Juve's president to try to press Tebas, the president of Liga, and when the plan didn't work, their meetings ended.
I don't praise Laporta but he has proven success in the past, so it will be difficult to judge early, and hopefully the next is better ✅
