[Albion] Valentín Barco **Signed 20/01/24**

[macbeth]

How would he get used to the PL by being loaned out?

my point exactly

 

[brighton_tom]

Hopefully another decent signing, but a bit of a free hit if not considering £8m is peanuts in Prem money.

 

[Bob!]

Good to see MacAllister congratulating him, what a bloke

Which one?

 

[GT49er]

How would he get used to the PL by being loaned out?

By playing half a season for a lower level PL team that offers no threat to us? Like Luton, Forest, Burnley or Palace for example.




N.B. I'm just answering the question, not suggesting this will - or should - happen.

I think this is disgusting behaviour. First Man City gazzump us to sign Barco, now they're using our social media channels to announce signing him using our clubs branding. I hope the FA/EPL come down heavily on them.

i don’t know if anybody else has said it, but we apparently now own 20% of the 25 most valuable players in the world born in 2004.
Barco, Baleba, Buonanotte, Enciso and Ferguson.

I would imagine they will take the same approach to his development as Buonanotte

Thats what he is saying. By saying its NOT something Weir would say Confusing but i think I got it.

Nice one. I expect the part at the bottom where Mac is laughing and saying “he’s practically English” is a little echo of what he heard from Argentina press etc when he signed with us, given hair colour and complexion etc.

The website has managed to call him Blanco in the caption - hopefully not an omen.....

Well he is quite pale…

 

[Justice]

Will he get the Siders song

 

[Acker79]

Barco hear the north stand sing
Glory to our Argie King


Anything in this?

…except he is saying ’to practice English’

Whoops. Well I suppose I better be practicing Spanish.

On reflection he looks a bit like Norman Price from Fireman Sam, doesn’t he?

Our recruitment’s not all that - we still haven’t signed Gavi yet. JEWELL OUT!

That said, Albion are doing an outstanding job in this area.
