Why would Barcelona sign Paulinho for €40m when they could've bought Jean Seri from OGC Nice for the same price? Makes little sense.

Villas-Boas said Paulinho's signing shows Chinese League's strength. No, mate, it is Barcelona's weak business model.

Barcelona have €222m to spend and the first player they sign is a 29-year-old Paulinho for €40m? What a total mess.
