He won't be going back to Barca. If he does, he'll have done very, very well and we make a profit.

Bloody hell mate.
I'm all for positivity, but we couldn't get close for large chunks of the game.

If the technical quality in the Spanish league is so great, then how did Sandro ever get a game?
Because like many footballers, he wasn’t half bad until he came here

If he's good enough for Barca to buy back, we've basically got a free player including wages for 2 years and even some profit!!
If he's gash he'll end up being loaned to Boro and we'll pay half his wages.
Tune in to find out!

Sevilla won three Euro cups in a row, Real 3 CL, Athleti have won 3 EL since around 2009 Barca have won 3 in recent times. They have had a strangle hold on the competitions in recent times. You just have to look at Coaching license numbers per country Spain out numbers England 9-1 just on these figures alone. Coaching, youth development and technical ability is streets ahead in Spain it’s not even worth arguing.
The EPL has a high standard due to the influx of cash and foreigners and it’s a league focused more on athleticism.
La Liga is a far higher standard technically it’s not even up for debate there’s a reason why the best players in England ain’t English
It's really not, they just have lots of time on the ball. The premier league is much faster.
The list of Spanish players who were highly regarded who came over here and couldn't adapt is quite high.

Less time on the ball means more mistakes that’s true but there’s a reason why English sides get smacked in Europe running around like headless chooks doesn’t work that well against composed teams
You've just mentioned 4 of the best teams in Spain. Who are dominate in Europe but what about the rest of the leauge? There's about 6 teams that can hold their own the rest you can get a better game down the pits.
Also the top teams in Spain take all the money and can afford to buy the best players, one of them is rolled buy the monarchy ffs.
And on the point of foreigners last season:
Reals best three players were from Portugal, Croatia, Germany.
Barca's best three players were from Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil
Athleticos best three players were from France, Brazil and Uruguay
They have just as much foreigners at the teams that can afford them as the premier league.

30m now is like 54 in 2020, not to mention if he’s a flop we can’t send him back (like a loan after expiry) and we’ve lost 30M, we’ve been had.

Cost neutral for us maybe, to them it’s not as his wages wouldn’t have been huge at all over there. So it’s in no way a loan in their eyes.
Also this is all assuming they take up the option. In my opinion it’s far more likely they won’t than they will.
It really isn't, outside of Sevilla, Barca, Real, Ateletico, and Valencia there isn't any real quality, and the top sides usually steamroll anyone outside of that group
Utter drivel
Villarreal would have battered us last season. Betis are a good side. Bilbao underperformed last season.
Most of the top half are all very slick teams. Most of the bottom half - cloggers.

This is worse than a loan deal, if the signing flops we are out of pocket by 30m if it is a success he gets taken back to Barca in 2020 for a fee of 54m which will probably just about cover inflation.
There is absolutely nothing in my post that is drivel, so I suggest you stop drivelling.
