I’m no expert on Barca’s finances, but dropping €50m on a 33-year-old striker when you already have Aubameyang and are laden with debt and are struggling (or refusing) to meet other contractual obligations just seems beyond crazy.

Genuinely don’t think I will ever get my head round letting a 19-year-old, who has never taken a senior penalty before, have the final pen. So odd on so many levels. Devastating way to finish an amazing three weeks. So proud though. It’s been special.
