Italia, Argentina, Spain, sort of Croatia for Kovacic

He must have known what he was getting himself into deciding to play for Spain right before the WC in his actual home country...

I mean sure, if he doesn't agree to a reduced role then he is free to leave, but we shouldn't just toss him out without giving him a choice.

This.

Messi playing like that in his mid-20s is/was a bit more concerning than a player who is expectedly declining because of age. Even so, I agree some were overreacting then too. But regardless, nobody here defending Xavi is saying that he can play 90 min every match, we know he can't. But I will...

If Iniesta was Xavi's age, he would also be called "finished" after his performance today. Everyone was poor, end of.

It would be a mistake to get rid of him just for the experience factor. Same reason Juve are keeping Pirlo.

Yeah sure, telling Xavi to leave or retire when the whole team is shit. It's all his fault I guess.

Like Milan would do any better. ;)

There's a new stadium about to open for the San Francisco 49ers (American football) that would probably be perfect. Since it's new it wouldn't need any upgrades. The San Jose Earthquakes (MLS team) are supposed to get a new stadium too, though I don't know how big that would be.

Welcome. :)

:angry:

Can't really wish him well because I hate Chelsea, but I don't hate him, at least based on what I know. Clearly Barca didn't want him, nor did Arsenal so he didn't have much choice. Either ride out his contract on the bench with Barca and further deteriorate his relationship with the club, or go...

They say Chiellini is going to shift to LB until he's able to play again. Probably the best idea since the other natural fullbacks are underwhelming.

Already so much poor refereeing and it's only the first match. :lol:

Fixed. ;)

Joined, my account is called "CinqueVolte". -------------------- Yup. You either get to pick Messi/Ronaldo/etc + a lot of trash, or a balanced squad of decent but not great players. I went for the latter, didn't even pick any Barca players. Hopefully some of my choices pay off.

What's wrong with Toldo!

If Reus leaves, BVB should sign Insigne. The partnership between him and Immobile was proven to work at Pescara and was shown well again yesterday.

Good to hear, so you feel cooler in it? Since I moved to a new climate, my old Spain top is a little too thick for the weather.
