When women are accepting being abused by men then they are perpetuating abuse by men. It significantly hurts the cause for equality for women. It is NOT as bad as the man doing the abusing, but it is absolutely worthy of social criticism. The idea that a woman who accepts being abused for...

When women call men out for abusing them, those men are absolutely castigated and rightly so. However, when women willingly stay with men that abuse them because they are prepared to put up with the abuse in exchange for money and material objects, they should not be questioned ?????? Can't...

Surprisingly, not seen his name mentioned here, but I'm going to throw Jhon Duran in as a replacement for him as our new CF.

When Button was at Parma, I remember we were heavily linked but baulked at the 30m fee. I rate Gigi as the best of all time. If we had made that signing we would have AT LEAST 3 more champions leagues and maybe as many as 5 more. Imagine having 10 on the sleeve, rather than the 5. Would be...

If we were willing to pay 80m or so, he would definitely come and I don't think Aston Villa would hold him against his will. But we don't value the goalkeeper position enough to pay 80m for one and make him essentially our gala signing of next season.

Can I start by saying we missed the best option in Mamardashvili and the other options are fairly limited. However, the little I have seen of Marco Carnessechi has been very good. I would wait for him to have a good season this season and then go in for him. Mamar's transfer to Liverpool...

Let me introduce you to Lance Corporal Ronald Araujo. The only man that can win the War on Terrorism. :salute:

Thought he was excellent on the whole. Fantastic last ditch challenges and clearances. Him and Lamine stood out. Both generational, but Pau goes under the radar because he is a defender. Think it's obvious he will be one of the best centre backs in the world fairly soon.

This man is the glue that gels the whole attack together. Without him there is no fluency or cohesion in our attacking play. Raphinha and Lewa look like a fish out of water without him there. Lamine was great, but had nobody to work with and was left to individual efforts. There isn't...

All I ask brudda is that if you are not poaching a goal, you hold the ball up. When you are down to 10 men, the most important thing for your team is that your centre forward holds on to the ball and doesn't give it away. Being 36 should not be a hindrance to doing that. Was not a good...

That there is the quintessential hospital ball. I could blame the defender if Ter Stegen didn't do it like every game, sometimes multiple times. He did another one in the second half, without Garcia there, for example. There can be no excuses. They hung dried and quartered Don Araujo for...

There is definitely some self destructive elements to his mindset. No question. I posted months ago about how when we score a goal, he always gives the ball away giving the opposition a clear chance. This is nothing new for Barca though. We've had a long line of self destructive goalkeepers...

It's surely time for him to punch one in to his own net to add to his repertoire, for his 100th And then hold his jersey up, like Messi did when he scored his 500th. :xavi:

Amen to that. But we have not done this in our history. Which is why we have had no world class goalkeepers ..... IN OUR HISTORY. Think of a Barca goalkeeper and you know what immediately comes to mind first ...... GAME DECIDING MISTAKES. DUTRUEL BAIA VALDES TER STEGEN HESP RECBER...

The worst thing, the very worst thing, is that the mistake for the second goal will get overlooked, because of the plethora of other glaring mistakes he delivered out there. But I'm telling you, no other goalkeeper in the world deliberately jumps out of the way of a shot which is struck...

2 generational talents at each end of the pitch ( Cubarsi and Lamine ) were not enough to stop our captain's ( :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:) destruction job.

On a serious note, Don Laporta is a very very charismatic, likeable guy. People don't like to mention that but it goes a hell of a long way in business, sometimes more than business acumen and nous. Another reason why he is so far ahead of his competitors in Catalunya right now. The others...

He is a double barreled bastard. How many double barreled bastard do you know that made it as elite footballers? I said the same when Loftus-Cheek came on to the scene. Easy pass. :lucho:

Must say, loving the positivity in this thread lads. Wish it was like this in all the threads to be honest. I also think Vitor will be out there finishing off people's careers in next to no time. In all truth, he should have finished off Deco's already. :bartomeu:
