It depresses me greatly that, considering they want a German coach, they haven't considered one that has been the 3rd best manager in Europe this season ( Sebastien Hoeness ) and instead consider two managers who have done unbelievably poorly in their last two jobs. ( Tuchel and Flick )...

There is actually a club willing to pay for the guy?? 1 win in his last 10 games. Brighton gone backwards despite improving their squad considerably. Brighton not even fighting to keep the guy. They let him leave mutually. One word : NUDES. Only explanation.

Bologna 2 nil up after 20 minutes against Juve, without arguably their best player. ( Zirkzee). Discounting Alonso, Motta has done by far the best managerial job in world football this season. Only really Hoeness at Stuttgart comes close.

A tournament where you have to beat Brazil, Uruguay and Colombia is worth less than a tournament where your hardest game was against Wales? ( :crbust:didn't play against France ) .

Too many crybabies. It's why the best posters have long since left and hardcore Madrid fans pretending to be Barca fans are like kids in a candy shop here. Everything associated with Barca is 100 percent shit. Everything associated with Madrid is to be worshipped totally and the grass is...

Good to see Pique up there. The man is insanely succesfull at whatever he puts his mind to. From his tennis venture, to the Kings League, to the way he dealt with the toxicity from Shak. When focused as a player he was amongst the best in the world. In the early years, Puyol was there to...

Barca are actually getting done dirty with the 37.5m fixed money which goes to all teams. Barca games are the most watched in La Liga worldwide by a large margin. So, we are essentially bringing significantly more money to the party than everyone else, though this is not reflected in money...

I actually think we have a very good chance to get Klopp in 2025, but if Xavi gets sacked and this interview is cited as the reason, then there is absolutely no chance whatsoever that any great manager agrees to work here under those conditions. Terrible, terrible look for the club.

Never lend your ear to a man who spends all his time pointing out problems and none of his time offering solutions in how to fix them.

Disagree strongly. I've become indifferent to Xavi staying or leaving. He is nowhere near as bad as people make out. And the possible replacements mooted have been nothing short of laughable. But give me a strong rumour that we want someone like Thiago Motta to replace him and I would be...

We are a few years in and Xavi has still not requested a signing that didn't want to make me do this.....:throw:

Vitor invested in a beautiful property on the outskirts of the city, when he should have been investing in ................

He had the first touch of Luis Rubiales 👄 from the get go. Who would have thought that would be a big problem playing for a club that requires high technical ability. It's crazy that people on Barcaforum could see he wouldn't be a success here after watching a 5 minute video on YouTube of him...

Time to bump this thread. This guy is just on fire when he manages to stay fit. Better than Eze even. But I would take both in a heartbeat. Apparently, Palace aren't asking crazy money for them. Would be great if we could somehow cosy up to Palace and find 120m to get both. Certainly...

They ain't letting him go for less than that. It's Bilbao. They made Chelsea pay 72m for Kepa lmao.

The Sergi Roberto comparison is obviously a slight exaggeration on my part to emphasize my point. But Kimmich's passing, chance creation and assist stats are massively inflated by the fact he takes all the set pieces. You are not going to see him come here and thread through balls to strikers...

If you buy bang average, don't expect team performances that are better than bang average. If they are no great left wingers available, don't buy a bang average one out of desperation. Save the money for when a real player comes along, they always do, it won't take long. Williams is the...

Kimmich is not, nor has he ever been, a world class player. He is far too slow and weak as a full back to be world class. Vini exposed that all too clearly. And his stint as a CDM seems to be more like a Pep vanity project. He's a jack of all trades, master of none type. Has the odd great...

I would say the single biggest reason why Barcelona had only 1 European Cup before 2006, is that we have NEVER had a world class goalkeeper. Ever. Look at yesterday's game. Kobel wonder save at the end to deny Mbappe taking it to extra time and possibly penalties, where it would all be down...

Madrid mentality mob cannot answer why for a full decade they had the weakest mentality you could ever wish for in their biggest game of the season. Numerous Classico humiliations. Eating a 4 nil at home with Messi on the bench. Playing with 11 players in their box at home in Classicos...
