    New 2015-16 Barca Kits

    Then have a 2016-17 speculation thread before the official reveal, but I don't see how that's really necessary.

    New 2015-16 Barca Kits

    Looks fine, but this thread is for the 2015-16 kit. If people want to speculate about the 16-17 why not make a new thread?

    fluaxc_kZtA Bazoer scored the goal in Ajax's 1-0 win over Vitesse on the weekend.

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    That's why I'd love to see them bring in a young Abidal type. Someone who can grow into the position by getting minutes by covering both CB and LB. Samuel Umtiti looks like an interesting option for example. Seems like a shortsighted solution to our lack of depth up front. Good player but he's...

    Lliga | Round 18: RCD Espanyol - FC Barcelona 0-0

    While I'm waiting for the match to start I'm watching Some English Place United vs Liverpool. Awful football. Neither team seems able to hold onto the ball for more than a few seconds. They just ping it around as fast as they can and smash into each other. Really makes me appreciate Barca, and...

    Paul Pogba

    Great player and seems to be a likeable guy too. I don't think we need him anymore though, and certainly not enough to spend the kind of money he's rumoured to go for. We already have Iniesta, Arda Turan, Roberto, Rakitic, and Rafinha for those two midfield spots, not to mention Carles Alena on...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    "Garbage" seems to be very harsh on a player who by all the accounts I've seen in the Spanish press has been having a very good season. I can't say I've seen a lot of their games recently, but whoscored has Sidnei down as Depor's highest rated player, and according to Squawka he compares very...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    If 50M is really the sort of fee needed to land Laporte I'd prefer we turn our attention to cheaper options like Samuel Umtiti, who has the added bonus of being able to cover left back.

    Gerard Deulofeu

    He really does remind me of Cristiano

    Aymeric Laporte

    Was not at all impressed by his performance away to Granada. Started the match with an own goal, and then in the second half gave the ball away very cheaply which led to Granada's second goal. _24A139NWnw

    Leroy Sané

    I thought he had a good game in the derby vs Dortmund. Nice assist. Although, I think he was the one who gave the ball away for Dortmund's third goal unfortunately. Can't blame him too much as it was a great counter attack from BVB though. He's been called up to the German national team and...

    Breel Embolo

    That's interesting. I'd never heard he was a Barca fan before. :thumbsup:

    6pymf_mep2o It's nice to see a rare moment of fair play

    Breel Embolo

    He certainly doesn't act like Balotelli though. I saw a quote from Frei where he said about Embolo, "I like him as a person as much as I do as a player. His feet will stay on the ground; he won't be shooting from 50 metres to score the goal of the season. You can give him good advice and he is...

    Breel Embolo

    I hope you swapped shirts with him after the game because it'll probably be worth a lot some day :002:

    Breel Embolo

    Club: FC Basel Date of birth: 14 February 1997 (age 18) Place of birth: Yaoundé, Cameroon Nationality: Swiss Height: 1.85 m (6 ft 1 in) Position: Striker I saw he scored again this weekend in Basel's 2-3 loss to Grasshoppers, which follows on from his impressive mid-week Europa League...

    Matteo Darmian

    Valencia is out injured so Darmian started against Crystal Palace. Offered nothing going forward and looked uncertain defensively. Van Gaal took him out because he looked in danger of being sent off, but he picked up yet another yellow card which means he'll be suspended for the next match. I...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Are you implying a man as scrupulous and trustworthy as Josep Maria Bartomeu would go ahead with signing a player if they hadn't gone above and beyond to ensure the player perfectly met the required standard to represent Futbol Club Barcelona? :bartomeu:

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    We must be following him because we have dangerously few options at right back with only Dani Alves, Sergi Roberto, Aleix Vidal, and Douglas who can play there...
