Good decision by Laporta in the end. No real alternatives available this summer.

Maybe they don't have his image rights? Otherwise it would be weird to edit him out of the picture.

He is not taking a pay cut at all. Will just be paid in smaller instalments for a longer amount of time. Why would he leave? No other club is this desperate for him. Still taking home 200m+ in wages for two years of work. Not even PSG would match that.

They can scratch their beards together at the next annual CL thrashing. He was sulking alone against PSG. :console: Seriously though, either winning is not a top priority anymore or he has terrible judgment.

I agree, current Barcelona is horrific and that is why Neymar despite his flaws would still be a massive upgrade. Not like we're debating between Haaland or Neymar here. It's between Dembele/Trinaco and Neymar for feck sake. What's there to troll about? Neymar and EV returning would make us top...

Neymar would be the best player on this team today, I apologize for nothing. Shame on me for wanting legitimate world class players at the club instead on finished geriatrics like Aguero and Gini looking for a retirement home.

Don't try and put me into your pathetic little Messi and Ronaldo fanboy boxes. I offer a clear perspective from the outside. Look at you. Still scrambling to put up a defensive front. :lol: Bet the likes of you will still be bumping this thread when both players are in the MLS. "At least Messi...

Is it 2017?

Leo has been quiet since Liverpool 2019. So about the same number of years. Oh and he did nothing of note in 2016, 2017 and 2018 while CR was owning the competition. At this stage both are declining burdens with bloated contracts that demand the team be built around them, while producing...

Relax, the sheiks are mad now and will give Leo a blank cheque. #7 will come next season.

Plays like a giant for sure. The anti-Busquets.

Time to start the Ballon D'or hype, especially if he does well for France in the EUROs. On another note if we're going to sign midgets I prefer the Kante type to the Puig.

Yeah, poor Pep. Just need 2 billion more euros. :)

Watching City desperately trying to cross at the end after 90 minutes of attempting to pass the ball into the back of the net was some hysterical stuff.

Old records and achievements mean nothing in football in relation to present ability. In that case might as well bring back Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta and Alves as players. Hire Mourinho as manager and keep Pique and Busquets for the next decade while we're at it, shall we? The game evolves, adapts...

This relationship was never going to work unless Koeman produced irreproachable results, which did not happen. Simple politics at play. Koeman is the previous regime's man, so Laporta isn't willing to give him a long leash. Now have some class and sack the man instead of tacitly smearing him...

Commands the box well, good at dealing with crosses, world class shot stopper. Everything one-knee Mr.Freeze isn't. Lad seems to have been playing forever, but is only 22. His distribution can be improved. Does the basics well. Of course the sign-on fee, wages and logistics of forcing Ter Stegen...

Mino Raiola spoke with Barcelona in the last few hours about Gianluigi Donnarumma. He's a free agent now - Marc ter Stegen is 100% staying as 1st goalkeeper, untouchable. Barca board will decide soon whether signing Donnarumma or not. Juventus are interested too. [Fabrizio Romano]

Who would you want replacing him ideally?

Dropped Ramos for the EUROs. :worthy: Say no to amigos! :lucho:
