31 May 2013 [14:52] - Today.Az
The Barça fans have spoken. The mass poll on MARCA.com asking 'Azulgranas' supporters which players they would like to see join the club's new-look line-up for the 2013-14 season has produced some interesting results. While German youngster Ter Stegen and former Atleti starlet De Gea got the nod in goal, Thiago Silva and Mats Hummels are the two men the Barça faithful would like to shore up the leaky Camp Nou defence. Indeed, goalkeepers and defenders dominated the poll, perhaps unsurprisingly considering Barça's problems conceding goals this past campaign and the fact that Brazilian wunderkind Neymar da Silva has already been brought in to beef up the attack.
German shotstopper Marc-André ter Stegen, of Borussia Mönchengladbach, is the slight favourite between the sticks, ahead of Manchester United's Spanish netminder David De Gea. At the back, PSG's Brazilian rock Thiago Silva and Borussia Dortmund's German international Mats Hummels vie for the honours of being the Barça fans' first choice, although Hummels has the edge.
