Why would you diminish the value of a trophy, just because it is dominated by two countries' teams? Brazil and Argentina are by far the two biggest football nations in South America. It's not like the Champions League regularly is won by Slovenian and Dutch teams. EV will never be considered...

Imagine BBZ being in charge of Barca transfers. Good thing Barto and Abidal signed the guy who the romantic barcaforum members liked.

You oversimplify way too much and leave out important facts to make your point seem true. Yes, Gallardo did not lead River to great succes in the league. I completely agree. You conveniently left out a lot of other achievements and trophies however. Gallardo has also won: Copa Sudamericana...

I even think Puig would be a much better impact sub. Might not be as experienced, but offers way more in terms of creativity, dangerous passes and dribbling skills. Which is what you need when you try to win a game, not Rakitic.

Then CM with offensive skills, or however you want to put it. You can play Eriksen and Messi at the same time, just like Iniesta and Messi played at the same time. Eriksen is not only a AM, he has played CM multiple times for both Tottenham and Denmark, and was one of the players who covered...

Hopefully this will be Firpo's chance to integrate into the team. Hopefully.

Tito had been through La Masia, and was Pep's assistant since his days at Barca B. Knew the players, and was very respected by the players and was liked a lot by Messi. An obvious, and imo good choice. Tata was a gamble, that's true. It was a gamble made out of necessity, Tito couldn't continue...

Honestly I'm so desperate I'd settle for most coaches at the moment. They don't have to be tactical masterminds, just not as complacent and conservative as Valverde. Most coaches with better squad handling, winner mentality and more character would improve this team imo.

Then you are very different to Messi. Messi is obviously not the type who'd speak out against a coach publicly, even if he wanted him sacked. It was stupid of him to back Valverde, but I don't think Messi is happy with Valverde at all, he just won't speak out publicly, he way to...

What a buy.

Why do use "" around boring. Do you think Barca plays entertaining, fluid and good football when Valverde plays a 4-4-2 with Rakitic, Vidal, Busi and whoever in midfield? That trio cost us the CL last year. Or how would you like him to Line up? Without Barcaforum Darlings FDJ, Arthur, Semedo...

Ahh okay, Thanks :)

Sorry in advance, this is completely off topic, but how do like other posts?

Gallardo is hardly conservative.

Gallardo is such a good coach, and it would definitely be interesting to see him at Barca, he is not an obvious fit however, for a few reasons: - Although he's a very adaptive and flexible coach, he very rarely uses 4-3-3. Instead, he prefers the 4-3-1-2 or 4-2-2-2, which would be interesting as...

I partly agree with you. I agree with you that he is too young, too inexperienced and not ready for matches like these. Nor should he be. He is 17, very talented, and has shown that he has the skills to perform at this level. But not when the whole team is playing like shit, everything is hella...

I'm thinking some games for the B team might be good for him. Afraid it might be too much pressure for him, and it's hard to develop in such a incoherent and static system as ours. It's shouldn't be his job to turn around games in which the whole team is playing like shit. At the B-team he can...

I miss prime Ronaldinho and Eto'o:(

Yes. I said his chances have increased due to Perez' injury and Dembélé's red card. I didn't say that he would start without a doubt, just that he might get to play in the clasico. And I still think that's quite likely to happen, he might be 4th pick but he's our only true winger available for...

Just got called up for the Spanish U-21 team due to an injury to Carles Perez. If Perez' injury is serious, Fati's chances of an El Clasico debut just increased even more...
