DJW 1,783 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Gai Assulin's been released today by Barcelona. Can play out wide, or as an attacking midfield, and is a fantastic prospect.Now, he's already being linked with all the big English sides, and, depending on his priorities, that's probably us blown out of the water already. However, if he wants European football and the opportunity to regularly play in front of 50,000 fans every other week at one of the best known clubs in the world, he would do well to find a better place than here to do just that. Even if it was just as a stepping stone, I'm sure he'd thrive here.Thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Davey_RFC 121 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I doubt he'd come here to be booted out the park by the likes of Ross Tolkely, Jack Ross etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DBBTB 27,239 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 He will go to Chelsea or Arsenal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muff 245 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I very much doubt Rangers would have even watched him play, considering he has never kicked a ball for the Barcelona first-team, unless they watched the one Copa Del Rey game last season, and a few U-21 Israel internationals.I have heard of him, but never seen him play, and that probably goes for the majority of people, unless you have Barcelona TV!?For that reason, I'll pass.

DJW 1,783 Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 To be honest, the only time I've seen him was in the Wembley Cup. Other than that, I'm just going by blogs and podcasts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest therabbitt Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 To be honest, the only time I've seen him was in the Wembley Cup. Other than that, I'm just going by blogs and podcasts.....and FM surely.I stopped playing that years ago and even I've heard of that promising youngster that you used to be able to sign on a free transfer in the first season with a -2 potential.

1st_Jan_1994 4,866 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I've never even heard of him tbh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 We can only dream Arsenal and Real Madrid are supposedly keeping tabs on him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Orangeclement 400 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Arsenal have been watching him for a while now and have been linked with moves before im sure the spanish experts all expected him to get game time towards the end of last season but it didnt com to fruit and with them signing Villa i pressume the best for al concerned ws to let him go Quote Link to post Share on other sites

supermac 115 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Unfortunate name but would be a great addition would only have him a season or so before making a tidy profit I say Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AllYAdair 1 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 All the potential in the world!!! However, I wonder if he'd have more luck than a certain other barca youngster who came to the spl in a blaze of glory - Marc Crosas.Assulin would be a fantastic signing imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

auchinairn true blue 58 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Well given that he is now training at the soon to be shut Auchenhowie (or is it ) Warbs must think he is worth a look could be just a stepping stone but who cares if he is half as good as the hype suggests.
