I deleted my initial prediction. I will wait for the line-ups and then do one.

Pep (like Jose) is a very divisive figure in football. Some like to lionize him out of all proportion (just like Jose's fanbois do) and giving him excessive credit for Barca success between 2008 and 2011. Others, try and belittle him, saying he had the best players, he had Messi etc while...

Kohe321 Judging by those pics, then Suarez must be just fine and all this is just a precaution or even a lame excuse. Unless, he had some kind of minor relapse in training. Maybe we are sandbagging before the CL final. :lucho:

You seem to be very confused BBZ. What some fanbois say on the internet is meaningless. Fat Ronaldo was never hailed as the greatest player ever by those in the know. His injuries (and lifestyle and fatness) never allowed for that. Ronaldinho was super-duper-mega for a 2-3 seasons (never as...

They are a bigger club than most in upper Segunda/lower Primera. They can improve for next season with the right additions. That's what I meant.

I agree that he should not have made those comments about Messi for they provide ammunition to those inside Bayern who want to criticize/scapegoat him. Other than that, what people say before games matters very little, if at all. In his stead, I would just fuck off to Man City, especially if...

They have the potential to improve though and they are in the play-off places as well. Eibar will remain piss-poor no matter what. I also wouldn't mind Granada going down. I cannot forgive them allowing Penaldo to score 5 goals past them this season.

This "thigh muscle overburdening" thing has been going on for quite a while? Is it just an excuse to keep him in cotton, or should we start worrying?

A club with a stadium for 5000 people should not be in the Primera Division, end of. As for Real Zaragoza, they are a historic Spanish club with titles (both domestic and European) to boot. They are definitely Primera material.

It's the rational thing to do from Real Madrid's point of view. For several reasons: 1) He is over 30. Decline from here on forward is inevitable, even if heroically decelerated. 2) He can still carry a massive price tag, since his decline is not yet observable in statistical terms, if only...

Average attendance of less than 5000, 4705 to be precise, that is a lot lower than Getafe (7361) who I also want relegated asap. Put Real Betis and Zaragoza in their place, or at least Sporting Gijon, Las Palmas, Osasuna. Also, after a good start, they reverted to their mean recording only one...

So, we have arrived on the final day of the Primera season. Places 1 and 2 have already been decided, so the only interesting bit about Barca and Real this weekend, is how ludicrous will Ronaldo's pursuit of a few more goals be? They are playing Getafe at home, which is great news for CR7 and...

They all have loads of cash. And no transfer ban to worry about.

Absolutely not. First, he will be even older. Two, his motivation will at least partly be gone. I say let him go.

From what I realize, Alves is playing hardball so that he gets a very fat 3-year contract. I say, no way! Yes, he has been playing very well lately but he is 32, and we will be able to buy in few months time. He should accept whatever we are offering (which I am sure is more than generous...

Any word on any of the contract's terms? Or is still everything up in the air?

With another European Treble on the horizon (hopefully by FC Barcelona) what people here think about previous Trebles? Celtic did it in 1967 Ajax in 1972 PSV in 1988 Man United in 1999 Barca in 2009 Inter in 2010 Bayern in 2013 Barca/Juventus in 2015. So, which one was the most...

:vermaelen::lucho2:

I am 90% certain that he will. I want Lucho to stay put (until Xavier Hernandez finishes his well-paid holidays in Qatar) then pass the mantle to another of our long-list of legends. Surely he will have the necessary qualifications by then as well.

I thought that their promotion to the SPL would have been a formality this season, but I was mistaken. Even though I am pro-Celtic, I want the Old Firm to return. Hope they return to the top flight somehow.
