Not sure if this has been mentioned:


Yaaay! Another Mackie on our hands hopefully - two players in the current Argentinian squad up there with Athlètico and Spurs. I am very chuffed for Buonanotte too - he absolutely deserves it.

A low key comp maybe but any opportunity to play with them, increases the chance of being named in the 2026 squad for the WC.

I just can’t get over us - who are we? Obviously the destination Club for Argentinian wonder kids now apparently :lol:

:bloom:

For any FPL players, Barco has now been listed as a £4m defender. Of course, we don't know how often he'll play but if you think he'll get game time and send in plenty of crosses and assists (and even get the occasional goal), £4m is a bargain.

With respect, that isn't a very clear response was it. Is there any flexabilty and can teams add to that list or that's it he cannot play?

There is no flexibility to name anyone else on the A List squad, the deadline to name the squad for the second half of the season was 2nd Feb. Rules allowed us to add up to 3 players, we added Moder and Enciso and delisted Dahoud. This took us to the limit of 25 so to name Barco we'd have had to delist another player from the squad.

We can add players to the B List up to 24 hours before each match, but Barco isn't eligible for that list as he's only just joined the club and to be on the B-list you need to be under 21 and have played for the club for 2 years.

@Zeberdi Went to reply your message from earlier but seen it’s been deleted. Not sure if by you or the mods.

I’ve got neurodivergent family and have volunteer work with neurodivergent kids so I hope my message didn’t seem too harsh, not offence was meant!

I thought saying “0 goals in 2 months” when the games were in the same week would be a big enough indicator that I was doubling down on the Stat Brothers joke. My apologies
That's a very kind and thoughtful message. :bowdown:

Glad he’s been to Reis, Tommy Hilfiger or somewhere - now looking more like a EPL star at least not a kid from the barrios.

He’s got ‘trouble’ written all over him this one hasn’t he? :lol:
