To me, this is less Barca not being convinced by Abidal and more Pep Guardiola knowing that Defensive Studs playing in Italy are the best of the best. I think over the next few years you'll see more Italian influence at Camp Nou.

Vargas is a beast! He reminds me of Roberto Carlos in his hey-day when he used to defend. Vargas also has size. Peru has used him as an offensive weapon as well.

He just signed for the Viola. Barca could have picked him up in the summer

I sure hope so Gaucho, i am not convinced by their defense and was expecting alot more, as much as Rafa has been so important to Barca, i think his time is up, and Puyol also seems to be a step behind, they can't afford to let that back line waste what their very potent offense can and is accomplishing, I hope come Jan they pick up some key guys including Juan Manuel Vargas.
