[MENTION=15323]reaper[/MENTION] you were on arda s ass since day one my friend before it was cool.. for that i give you a badge of brutal honesty.. sometimes it shocks those not used to it and gets labeled as trolling.

You won't get the best out of him until Iniesta leaves imo as both play well on the left.

Sure he played on the right for Brazil but you're still limiting him when playing him there. Yesterday was the first game I've seen that he was totally lost, he was improving quite a bit in the last several weeks but playing him as a RM/RW just handicaps him and the team.

Is that necessary? I don't think that's trolling (rather a fact) but that's not the point here.

I write in a few forums (related to what I do and some interests) and actually think that moderation here is pretty good. They are easy-going, accessible and often constructive... why does a single warning upset you so much? I believe (never had a need to check) it can be communicated with the moderators.

Anyways, all the best if you leave, but it'd be a shame.

He is trolling, it's one thing to criticize a player who had a bad game but he was actually criticizing the signing. Coutinho has been in this club for around 4 months so far, and I don't think the coach knows how to set up this team with both Coutinho and Dembele in it. It was unnecessary to post inflammatory like "looked worth around 50m".

I actually was one of few posters who didn't want us to sign Coutinho because of a price tag, I had so many arguments with Jamdav1982, but I fully support him once he joined our team.

Calling Coutinho 50m player is nothing but an insult.

Calling Coutinho 50m player is nothing but an insult.

he is not worth 145m we paid for him calling coutinho 145m player an insult. he is only worth 50m or 60m if we decided to sell him in two or three years time if he does not play good for us. no club in going to pay more than 60m for him we won't be able to get the money we spend on him back

It seems like still a few people on this forum don't understand that we have been taken to the cleaners by Dortmund and Liverpool and that we overpaid 40-50 million for Dembele and Coutinho each, because the genius Pep Segura went on TV and announced who we are after. Not to mention that everybody knew that we were loaded.

True.
Let's wait for the development of the transfer market in the upcoming summer though. Might turn out that Coutinho wasn't "that" expensive.

I didn't follow his writing on Coutinho before so I'm not familiar with his attitude towards him, but - why would criticizing a signing be considered trolling? There are players in the squad many of us want gone, what's wrong with that?

I didn't post anything on Coutinho previously I think. I was happy with the signing in fact. I just like others said he didn't look his value on sunday - however I received a warning for it. I also got in trouble for thinking Arda was a waste of time. Of course, I have made my peace with leaving the forum Joan Laporta - and it has been a pleasure posting with over the years with you.



If any one has a second - could someone advise me as to who is the most senior admin on the site so I can get my account deleted? Is it the one who warned me for trolling Barcaman?

I don't like it when people leave communities but if that's wbat you wish, all the best in the future.

Yes, it's Barcaman (ex Bojan).

Yes I got into a lot of trouble for saying Arda was a terrible signing from day 1. To be honest all the insults I received for my opinion on him were worth it in the end seeing as he is gone. Also when I stated Bartra was not Barcelona standard in 2014 and suggested we buy Manolas - I was told to shut up because I clearly no nothing about football! Bartra was removed a few years later - the club saying 'we could do better' and Manolas - well I still maintain we should have taken our option on him.

I said I was the one who criticized the signing of Coutinho for anything more than 100m. I didn't follow his replies before but from his reply above it seems he was very happy of this signing despite the price tag. So, isn't it premature to judge a signing he was so excited about just after 4 months, not even a season? Coutinho is quality WC player, no one in his right mind will deny this, so can't compare him to players like Gomes or Paulinho who many here wants them gone. It's obvious his intention is to inflame and I would say he succeeded.

Coutinho for 50m? Are you kidding me? If you can please tell me how much are players Eriksen, Messi, Salah, Icardi?

I don't think he did. What really inflamed the situation was the warning.

Not important anymore since he's gone.
