              So I know I'm getting a little ahead of myself here in bringing this up, but I've been thinking about this next transfer window. we supposedly had a verbal agreement with Ribery but with all this hype coming from Man United and Real Madrid I doubt we will end up with him. for me this isn't much of an issue because I don't think we need him.
              for me this is the pecking order for what our priorities should be:
              1. a new leftback: Abidal hasn't really worked out as well as everyone expected. he works really hard, and is known to be the most serious and intense player in trainings, but I don't think he fits Barca's style. he is very indecisve with the ball, contributes nothing to the attack, and as Robben showed (granted Robben is pretty sick) isn't a great 1v1 defender. His replacement Sylvinho is still able to contribute and help Barca out, but he's 34 years old and doesn't have the stamina anymore.
              2. a new goalkeeper: Valdes is still young and has improved since his start at Barca but he is not panning out to be a world class goalkeeper. We have all seen his blunders and inability to come out for crosses. I don't think Valdes will be replaced unfortunately, but there were rumours of the Almeria goalkeeper possibly making a move to Barca, and if any of you have seen him he looks to be quite special. Barca this season have been pretty solid defensively, imagine a Barcelona with a goalie as good as Casillas or Van der Sar....
              3. a versatile forward: I don't think our priorities should be on forwards but its Barca and we are always looking to attack, and fans love to see more attacking players so its seems realistic. Eto'o could be on his way out, but even if he isn't I think he has been really underperforming this season. I know that sounds weird since he is currently Pichichi but I feel like half of those goals really came from Messi's genius and Henry's ingenuity. A lot of people at Barca are looking to replace Henry but I personally think he has been amazing this season. He has shown up big time when we need him and always works 110%. I think either a Tevez or a Benzema would be appropriate for Barca. Tevez is a La Liga player and I think would fit in well with Barca. He's technical, he works hard, he is able to fill in for anyone of Barca's forwarding positions, and he already speaks spanish. Benzema is young, eplosive, technical, composed, and promises to be a world class player. He is also capable of playing central or out left.
              4. another midfielder: I don't think we really need one but its possible that we will lose a few midfielders this season. There have been rumors of Yaya leaving (which would be a tragedy), Gudi could be on his way out, even Keita would be leaving, not to mention Iniesta is very injury prone. I would love to see Cesc Fabregas back at Barca although I doubt it.
              1&2 I think should be priorities. It would be nice to see number 3 happen but not completely necessary. 4 will depend on this coming transfer season.
              I've always been a believer in the theory of if its not broken, why fix it... although no team is perfect and Barca still have a long road ahead to win some trophies. wow I wrote way too much.
              i think arzhang's comment just went down here but deserves to be discussed

                            We really need 2 very good replacements for Abidal and Etoo.
                            Abidal is the weakest link in defense. It is like a traffic in his side of defense when we play decent sides. not sure what the options are though.
                            Etoo has been garbage. el pichichi he is because he scores against weak teams and with messi and henry feeding him in front goal for him to tap in.
                            we need a tall and quick forward who has a very good technique. ibrahomovic will be a dream purchase
                            Valdez has been in good form and being an original catalan he always gives 100%. gk is not a pririty in my opinion for now.

                            and midfielders we have plenty of.
                            a LB and striker is all we need.

                              All Barcelona needs is depth in the defensive line. We have no real replacement for Alves. CB's are quality with puyol, pique, marquez and milito. For left back i would love to see maxwell who plays at inter atm.

                              If Eto'o leaves Villa would be a great addition.

                                right after i wrote that i realized that I think a new forward is much more necessary then a new keeper. Completely agree on the Eto'o part, that's exactly was I was hinting at but you were brutally honest. Zlatan would be great but don't ever see it happening... the only names I've heard brought up are Villa, Torres, Benzema, and Tevez.

                                who do you guys think is on their way out after this season??? I can pretty much guarantee that Gudi and Jorquera will be gone. who else?? Abidal maybe, Sylvinho?? Hleb has been a complete waste and should be released for whatever price. Eto'o could be on his was out which is fine with me because he is past his peak in my opinion. There are some rumors of Almeria wanting to buy Bojan. Opinions????
