Many in here seem to expect Paulinho to play like Xavi/Iniesta. We brought Paulinho as a squad player and as someone who can bring something different, and he does exactly that. As for being a starter. Whoever said that Paulinho has the quality to be a Barcelona starter? It's like you know...

Pretty average on several levels. But has a knack for crucial goals. That counts for a lot.

Gomes Pique Biscuits & Rakitic were not great either.

A free-kick for the ages from the undisputed GOAT. Also, some great passing and dribbling. Sociedad players could only stop him via hacking on several occasions.

EL Pistolero of old is definitely back with a vengeance...

How long will he be out for?

Thing is, would Prem teams be fooled into signing Penaldo, along with his wages, antics and old age?

How much would Kane cost? I am 100% certain that Real Madrid will go after him in the summer.

Real had a really shit league campaign in Mourinho's last season (12/13)

Neymar would be very difficult to get for Real Madrid, unless part of his contract is run down. But they can easily go for just about anyone else (Kane, Hazard, Salah, Icardi, Dymbala etc...)

It seems that Real Madrid have run out of luck this season. No dramatic last-minute Ramos winners, no easy draws in the CL, much fewer penaldos and much fewer tap-ins for Cris. It's beautiful.

The Messi vs Ronaldo "debate" is the prime telltale sign for when an individual really gets football or is in any way capable of objective reasoning. Ronaldo, as great as he is, simply cannot compare to Messi in terms of football capability. People tend to use every single moronic argument...

Some of them are easy add-ons, some are not.

Not every performance-related add-on will be be paid. So it will be less than 310m. Don't forget that we also received 222m for Neymar. The net spend in this case will probably be less than 80m, which is well within our means. Barca exist so that they can be the best in the world, not a cult...

United fans, just like the fans of several other major clubs, have been aching for us to decline ever since the 2009 epic. Whenever their dreams are shattered, they lash out in a crescendo of stupidity, such as in "Coutinho is no big deal" etc etc...

This is the market right now. As Coutinho is an established 25-year-old world-class talent and Dembele is a highly promising youngster, the fees would always be massive As revenues for the major clubs rise, so will the signing fees and wages rise in tandem. It's how capitalism operates, for good...

Exact same thing that came into my mind.

Iniesta at 24-29 was better than Coutinho. But now? Forget about it, not even a contest.
