Hi: Ney is making a serious mistake going to PSG. He is deserting the MSN - the most celebrated offensive trio in history. What would we give to watch the other celebrated trio play: Di Stefano, Puskas, and Gento. The reason he is going to PSG is that the Parisian team has a lot of Brazilians...

Excuse me! I will never state that your opinions are complete BS! They are just different from mine. A lot of people, at the time, got upset because many times Dani centers were not precise and many rimes they were wild passes. However, it was his threat, always there, that put the other team...

What? A 24-year old football player is supposed to be at the top of his game. Dani was 24 - 25 when he came to Barcelona. Hektor

Nonsense. Alves was never appreciated specially by Luis Enrique. He just got fed up. Why would he want to leave when Messi was not only his partner on the pitch, but also his best friend off the pith. Barça did not want to pay Alves what Juventus did.

It was obvious that Lucho told Sergi Roberto to go up during halftime. However, he did it without the ball. Again, he does not want to make a mistake. Maybe, he can replace Dani, but not with that mentality. I know the position very well. That is what I played all my life in my different...

What?

I said it before and say it again: Barça is one team with Dani Alves and another without him. Dani projection on the right used to push the opposing team back. When the team used to converge to the right, because of Dani, that left Jordi Alba and/or Neymar free on the left (yes, Barça is...

Hi Bojan; Nice to talk to you again. I still cannot believe that we let Dani go. Last year, the team was one thing without Dani and another with him. In the Valencia game, for example, we almost turned the game around after Dani was put on the pitch. For some reason, Lucho never liked Dani...

After two games, they learned how to play the new Barça without Dani Alves, a key player for us. Barça did not start the last winning run until Alves joined us from Sevilla. I hope that the morons making personnel decisions realize the mistake they made by letting Dani go. We have no one that...

Hi: I'm going to re-post what I wrote in the thread of the Real Sociedad game. I believe that this is a very important discussion that cannot be buried under the game thread. Last year, under a much-maligned “Tata,” we were, at this junction, something like 15-1-1. We lost it in the second...

Hi: People forget that we lost La Liga, the Champions League, and La Copa Del Rey in the second half of the season. Actually, we were in the finals of the Copa del Rey and lost La Liga in the last game. We were a goal away from winning both of them. People also forget that Messi, Neymar...

Hi: One more comment from me, if I may. I fully realize that we cannot win everything, all the time. There are going to be good years, very good years, and lean ones. I will enjoy, to the fullest, the good years and support my team through the lean ones. However, I expect and demand that...

Hi: I just cannot take this anymore! Last year, under a much-maligned “Tata,” we were, at this junction, something like 15-1-1. We lost it in the second half! The Barcelona Sports Press, the ones responsible for running Tata out of town, suffers from amnesia, selective amnesia or moral...

Hi, Bobby Robson coached Barcelona in the 1996-1997 season and won Copa del Rey, Suppercup, and the Winners' Cup. He was kicked upstairs, the following year. I do not consider his tennure with the club as a success story. As I stated, anyone can fail, even Bobby Robson. I have nothing but the...

Thanks. Nice to be back, now that I have my Ipad :wave: :cool: That is the reason for my new count in number of posts. :p Hektor

Hi Bojan: Long time no see. Nice to talk to you again. I was very happy when we hired el Tata. However, one game does not make a season. Anyone can fail. Bobby Robson, a true gentleman and a fantastic coach, did not really make it here. On the other hand, so far - so good. We'll see at...

IMHO, there is no problem with the Argentine mid-field or offense - we have more players tha we know what to do with them. Many of our substitutes or players that are not called up would be starters is most teams arorund the world. Argentina's major deficiency - a massive one - is the defense...

Mascherano is playing out of position, because the team and Pep asked him to! Yet you are not recognizing it. I have no idea why we got Song instead of a CB. That was a screwed up by Vilanova or Pep. There is a commentator in Beinsports that hates Mascherano that game long criticizes Masche...

I do not agree with selling Mascherano. He is not a CB, period; but Masche played there because the team needed it. The Argentine NT needs desperately CB's, but Mascherano never played in that position. He can get away with the lower 15 teams in la Liga and/or the first rounds of the copa or...

Hi: Thanks. Here is the link to his press conferene published by as: http://futbol.as.com/futbol/2013/07/23/primera/1374599418_843408.html I hope it works. Hektor
