Him coming back is going to be a massive boost to the team defensively. Seems to be tucking in to make a 3rd left sided centre back when ball is on the other side. Was much better going forward as well with his low driven crosses and through balls. Could be a breakout year where he fulfills...

Great early signs from Dr Flick. Lovely high press, winning ball high up the park. Still maintaining traditional Barca possession based game. But the youth and energy means we now attack more vertically and have genuine counter attack potential as well. Weak point was him doing nothing about...

This guy is clearly not at the level required to play here. It takes him too long to work out what he wants to do with the ball when he receives it. You can't teach that split second moment of instinct, I'm afraid. No point loaning him out any more as will not perform well enough to increase...

Valle and Victor vaccinating Vardrid.

Balde deserves some love. Solid defensively and seems to have improved in the final third. Played some good through balls and low driven crosses. Inigo not up to it at all.

If Sporting win the league again this season, whilst implementing 1 or 2 new players in to an already winning team, then we should seriously consider Amorim as our coach for 25/26 if Flick fails. Benfica have gone big in the transfer market this season and to beat them again would be a great...

Apart from when they are scamming us, they are generally horrendous in the transfer market Mid players like Sorloth, Alvarez, Dovbyk for a mid club that will always stay mid under the present manager and sporting department. They rarely ever take risks on young players from South America...

Neither of those would be worth the money needed to get them anyway. Musiala maybe, with a year left at say sub 70m would be worth a punt. But need to be very very careful with expensive attacking signings from the Buli. Only need to look at the history, lots have flopped. Kolo Mauni...

That's not how it works at all. Look at any case of a huge company going bust ( WeWork, MoviePass ) and you will see that multinational corporations invested multi millions along the way, when those companies were already practically bust behind the scenes. If knowing the truth of a company's...

He continues to make false promises because he is negotiating with multi billion dollar corporations for multi million deals regarding sponsorship and selling parts of Barca. Telling the world you are desperate for money, significantly reduces your negotiating power. We already did that, and...

All very exciting until you find out she has XY chromosomes.

Wammy, you would save yourself and the rest of us a whole lot of time and energy, if you just wrote a 3 word post and ended the conversation with that. That 3 word post is as follows : " I WAS WRONG." Ping Pong is pure puppa, pal.

I remember when Lampard started coming through at West Ham and in his first few months at Chelsea. Exact same complaints that people have here about Fermin, West Ham and Chelsea fans had about Frank. Not good enough technically, gives the ball away too much, can't see a pass. West Ham fans...

Fabrizio Romano on Twitter.: EXCLUSIVE: Barça president Juan Laporta was asked about the situation regarding the ' male ' boxer fighting women in the Olympics. " I do not see a problem with it. We have to continue to expand inclusivety for all members of society. " He replied. "Infact, if...

Think Gundo has been another poor signing. Had the first touch of a Turkish Lukaku at times, and used to give the ball away in a dangerous area at least once per game , a la Busi or Sergi Roberto. Those lapses of quality were overlooked here as folk really are looking at him through Man City...

He honestly reminds me of when they sub on a Youtuber in the SoccerAid match. :banghead:

Tears in my eyes, fam. :frenkie::frenkie::frenkie::frenkie::frenkie:

So it's rumoured he is staying and we have increased our bid for Olmo to 65m Inc. variables, as a response This is big. Fucking big. Because if there is any ounce of truth in that bid, we are officially fucked with a sporting department that thinks that's a good idea . I mean how is Olmo, an...

Whatever way you slice and dice it, this has been as inept a signing as there has possibly been at any club, let alone Barca. To spend 40m on a 18 year old that doesn't really seem to excel in ANY facet of football, is quite something. When you add in our financial plight, especially at the...

All the more reason not to put him in your Top 20 then :pep: But on a serious note, I have had him around 15-20 in my list for pretty much the last 10 years or so and I can tell you that when I tell people that they look at me like I am the elephant man, especially 10 years ago The general...
