Hello Ed002, what do you make of the events currently going on in Catalonia, how will it affect the football in Spain?

Will completely understand if you don't want to answer. Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - It won't have any impact on football in Spain.}

Hello Eds, I saw this on ESPN from 2 days ago, apparently Barcelona are looking for "reasonable veteran options".

One of the names that came up was Dirk Kuyt. Just out of sheer curiosity, is this true? Lol.

{Ed002's Note - There is no secret that Barcelona has been looking for versatile forward cover since Pedro left. This has been pushed to the fore now because of injury to Messi and the person they had in mind (Nolito) not being keen on moving just to provide cover. They have looked at Jonathan Soriano but it would be a compromise as he is a striker and not as versatile as they would like. A further complication comes in clubs not being keen to sell in January. Plan B might be to look to a short term deal (6 months or more likely 18 months) for an older player who will happily wait until asked to play. Kuyt may well suit the bill there but I am not aware of any approach being made at this time. A further complication is that a squad place would be taken up going forward, and that would not be desirable. A loan for a player is also not out of the question.}
