Official: Philippe Coutinho has been successfully operated on today for a meniscal cyst in his left knee by Dr. Rodrigo Lasmar. [fcb] Hopefully he is fit enough by August to pass a medical. Otherwise we're stuck with him for another season. :facepalm:

Sorry if it offends you, but I value winning La Liga over Puig trying to put on a talent show. He knew full well he would hardly play this season from very early on. Lad has some talent, but will never channel it properly if he stays here content with 5 minute cameos here and there. Should put...

Valladolid showed in the 2nd half they were capable of maintaining a counter-attack threat even into the latter stages of the match. Red card or not, I don't see what the purpose is of sprinting with the ball through the middle of the park with only a few minutes remaining. Could easily lose it...

Game was hardly "won" at 1-0. Puig was bombing up the field as if we needed one more goal. Situational awareness is very important for a midfielder. In that sort of late match scenario the tempo must be dropped, main priority is to keep possession and see out the remainder of the game. Puig...

:barcascarf::barcaflag::barcascarf: La Liga is in our hands. Win every match and we're champions, easy enough.

Read the Juventus forum plenty. The reaction is much more mixed than that screenshot posted here would lead you to believe. Main problem folks seem to have with him is his wages. The more bitter users were under the laughable belief he would go there at an advanced age and single-handedly win...

Would be very disappointing to see him sign the rest of his career away like that. Ney is still one of the most talented players in the world, what does he see for himself in Paris other than the money? Mbappe is surely gone soon and he has clearly shown he is not satisfied with the Ligue 1...

Agreed. Don't think he's that bad yet. 24 goals is 24 Serie A matches this season in front of that shambles of a Juventus "team" is still excellent output. If you were to only to read this forum though you'd get the impression he's already down to a Sunday league level.

Barca wants to renew Dembele's contract, but they are worried because they know that other clubs like Juventus and United are tempting him through his agent for his signature, while Liverpool and PSG also have him on their radar [md] Worried? Rubbish, this is splendid news. Bin this injury...

Neymar has contacted the new board and the management and he has made it clear that he will adjust with Barca's new economic situation. [diariARA] Sooner you accept the inevitable, the better. :) Ney has realized his mistakes and will be more motivated then ever to turn his career around. He...

Neymar has made his intentions clear. He wants to return. [Gerard Romero] On March 3, Pini Zahavi met with Joan Laporta to discuss a deal for David Alaba. Neymar's name was also mentioned. [AS] Relax, he's coming and all of you will be licking his boots once again when he wins us the...

That would be great, but more likely nothing more than Pep's typical "woe is me" press routine.

PSG surely won't allow a player of his value to leave on a free, or are they confident of signing him to an extension? Only one year remaining on his contract. Been very few rumours about him, which is surprising.

Of course Raiola is meeting with other clubs as well. Still early days and any competent agent would take the time to view all proposals. Nothing do with being "fooled" or anything being "staged." This is just how business works. What we do know is that we've at least got a seat at the table.

Right, this likely means very little in the grand scheme of where Haaland ends up, but it cannot be a bad thing. If it were Madrid meeting with them the forum would be in meltdown moaning about how Madrid have already got his signature secured and it's all over. Instead we've got a meeting and...

Mino Raiola and Haaland's father will listen to several clubs [including Barcelona]. The relations between Haaland’s agent and Joan Laporta have been solid since years now. Barcelona is preparing the first attempt. [Achraf Ben Ayad] Good to see Laporta being proactive and making contact already...

https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/bombazo-mino-raiola-padre-haaland-11630578 SPORT is running the same thing. Video of them exiting the airport included in the link. May not be a joke after all.

Koeman would accept Aguero as long as Depay becomes a Barca player too. [as]

We have improved lately, but remember we are still in a transition phase. We don't need be diving into the rubbish bin at this stage of the cycle to sign some crocked former star as a bench player or stop-gap. Giroud's contract expires this summer. Give him a two-year as a true plan B striker...
