    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    Agree with the pitfalls of an electoral system to choose the leaders of the club, but there is also an argument for it. A bad ownership group that cares nothing about the product on the pitch and only the bottom like can infest a club for decades and run it into the ground since there is nobody...

    Ronald Koeman

    Arthur

    At 4 in the morning, Arthur was driving under the influence of alcohol. He hit the pavement and his car headlight malfunctioned. The player is fine and the car is not badly damaged. [TV3] :facepalm: And this is the bloke users spent pages and pages defending like he was their son, accusing the...

    Arthur

    All the suspicions I had about him seem to be being proven correct. Juve will toss him out within 2 seasons and he'll be retired by 30. Good riddance. Thank goodness the ink is dry on the swap deal with Juve. Barto did well getting this muppet out before he could damage his reputation any further.

    Arturo Vidal

    PSG are willing to propose Arturo Vidal a good contract in order to lure him away from Barcelona. [la cuarta via md] Vidal to PSG for 10m Suarez to Ajax for 10m Rakitic to Sevilla for free Let's do it.

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    Ideally, yes. But we have no money to bring in reinforcements, are stuck with most of the seniors for now and there is much uncertainty in the air with a new regime taking over in a few months. Pimienta would be down my list of choices as well, but a throwaway coach for a likely throwaway season...

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    The hope is that the new board comes in, is able to hire their man as manager without any expectation or pressure to keep the existing coach and starts a mass clear out next summer. With most, if not all the amigos likely staying I don't see any manager able to squeeze much out of next season. I...

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    Wouldn't mind it. Koeman would be fine, Poch ideal, but with elections in less than a year and this team likely going nowhere next season a caretaker like Pimienta whom would be aware he only has one year as manager wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. This is going to be a transition season.

    Luis Suárez

    No issue with letting him go, but no chance of getting any big fee from his sale. That means we will not be able to replace him properly as we have no money. Going into the next season without a true #9 could be disastrous.

    Sergio Busquets

    :lol: Out of all the senior players Busquets is the one that has the least to offer even in a reduced role. He is a dinosaur both physically and tactically. There is no use for him in modern football.

    Who is more responsible for Barca's downfall

    Has to be the board. No intent ever shown is building or maintaining a proper football project. Rosell/Barto regime inherited superstars from previous regime and rode them all the way into the ground. Milked all they could from the golden generation, both commercially and sporting wise with no...

    Neymar Jr.

    We have no money, PSG will not accept a swap deal and Neymar is better poised to win the CL in Paris than with us. No point in even speculating over this, it's not going to happen and the rags still pushing these rumours for clicks should be ashamed. We could have got him last summer if not for...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    He is not going to leave this season. Earliest he goes is next summer on a free. This is him simply trying to exert some power over the board. Pre-season starts in a few weeks. All the amigos will still be here, no major signings, but there will be a new coach and maybe the election date gets...

    Ronald Koeman

    Koeman, very close Barca and the Dutchman are finalizing the contract details for his signing They want him to sign for 2 years, but the 2nd conditioned for the new board Welcome! Don't expect anything at all from him. Keep it somewhat competitive in La Liga and don't lose by more than 3...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Since he last played in a match for us two coaches have been sacked and he did not play a single minute under the second one. There are levels to this game. :dembele: :worthy:

    Champions League

    It is not very good in isolation or over a small sample size. Certainly should not be used to read into single matches. Over the course of a season however it can provide insight into the creative output and finishing ability of teams. For individual players it can be a decent measure of a...

    Luis Suárez

    Imagine Ronaldo throwing a fit after Suarez trips over the ball. :lol: Would be nice to see this donkey put in his place by an even bigger crybaby who has a bigger status than him.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    If he doesn't renew by January he is gone. At that point he can sign a pre-contract with any club in the world for the following season.

    Quique Setien

    Not enough is being made about this muppet's disastrous managerial performance against Bayern. In many matches where things take a turn for the worse, coaches are blamed for making the wrong decisions. The difference with this bloke is that he did nothing all match. He sat and watched...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Leo deserves his share of the blame and I have not been hesitant to hand it out, but from his perspective lad is likely totally demoralized and drained from last season's collapse against Liverpool. Madrid had just won 3 consecutive CLs and we heard Messi make a speech at the start of the...
