^Handled it better by minimizing the drama around it. We seem to be the only big club that has these sort of issues every year

On one hand, I understand that MATS has every right to stay due to his contract and I don't hold it against him. But on the other hand, I have a feeling that if he's kept on the bench, then he and his agent would probably start conducting interviews on how the club is treating him unfairly and...

Very happy he's staying at Bilbao. Imagine spending 60M for 5 goals a season. And on top of that he has poor technique and isn't good in tight spaces. Use the money and buy a CB, then get Rashford on loan for a year. He can cover the wings and CF. Then monitor that seghir guy at Monaco and if he...

3-0 against Bayern in 2015.

He won't

And as usual, Raphinha gets left out of the bd'or conversation. Consistent ever since the beginning of the season, most goals and assists in the UCL, highest g+a for club and country, works insanely hard off the ball, equalled Ronaldo's record in the UCL, but people want to give it to Yamal for...

BBC at real Madrid achieved a lot too and they weren't that friendly. I don't want to hate on him, but honestly I don't see what makes him so special. People want him because he's friends with yamal and his performance for Spain, rather than how good he is at club level. All he provides is a...

Why is him being friends with Lamine an upside?

Reading through this thread and honestly I find it quite bizarre and even disrespectful how people keep pushing yamal for the balon d'or and completely neglecting raphinha. Highest goal scorer and assist provider in the cl, also equalled the cl record for most g+a in a season, plus he's been...

I feel like he would be the perfect backup for Pedri. Should be tried at midfield more often

He had absolutely no reason not to pass here

Look, I don't hate Gavi, he could become a very good player in future, but right now he isn't showing it. Pedri, FDJ, Olmo, Fermin and Casado are adding more quality to the team than he is. The best thing for him is to go on loan to a club where he won't be as protected as he is here, so he can...

Bernal could turn out to be a good player, or he could turn out like ansu fati. He should not be counted on as a serious option in midfield. Pedri and FDJ remain as starters, with casado coming in to rotate

^ And to add to this, you realize that FDJ is also coming back from a long term injury? Why not bring it up? Or does it only apply to Gavi?

No one, not even Gavi's mother or agent, would agree with this
