Since Barcelona do not believe in unlimited spending unlike their sworn rivals Real Madrid, they can buy only one of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and David Villa. Let's examine the pros and cons of each choice.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic :-
Pros :-
1. A physical presence

4. Scores outrageous goals
5. Creates chances out of nothing
Cons :-
1. Not much of a team player
2. Doesn't track back to defend

5. Misses sitters
David Villa :-
