Can we get their sporting director instead then? :p Heard some very good things about him. Overmars (apparently rejected Newcastle, but always said he would accept Barca) or Zorc (obvious reasons) would be great too, plus they're also Laporta's first choices, so that's another positive.

There's been rumours of Newcastle making him his top target in January and be ready to pay 55M, which if true, is an absolute must take. Perfect timing as well, since Newcastle are fighting for survival in the league and will literally throw money around to get as many big names and good players...

With Dembele (and Fati) confirmed out for the Espanyol (probably Benfica too) game I really hope we see this kid's debut. Him on the right, and Abde on the left could be fire! Certainly better than the Dest or Gavi RW experiment.

I really hope Xavi stays strong and firm about this. In that case I see Pique retiring after this season. Especially since he keeps saying he won't go anywhere else and once his time is Barca is done, his career will be over too. Don't really care, since the guy treats playing for Barca like a...

You go, Xavi, full steam ahead! :rockon: Pique is gonna retire after this season. :lol: The guy treats playing for Barca like a hobby for the past few years. He'll probably be left behind, not just physically, but he'll also be annoyed that he can't conduct any of his business mid-season. Then...

We lose to Bayern away, Benfica wins at home against Kiev, and we're out because they're better head to head. So likely it won't be enough.

What does experience matter? By that logic Xavi should still be playing all the oldies as starters, while sending the likes of Gavi, Pedri and Nico on loan. Training and performance will matter! And NO amount of experience or big name will matter! Finally! If Puig will impress enough in...

They are really struggling. They obviously need ballers like Ter Stegen, Lenglet and Coutinho in January to make that push from relegation to top 4 football. Statement signings. We'll even give you a discount, 100M for all three of them, come on. you know you want them!

He did. It's called the fear of inadequacy.

As if that somehow makes you invincible to getting (and spreading) it. :lol: Plus you've got the bonus of worrying about the side effects kicking up at any given time. :wave:

With Lenglet, Ter Stegen and Alba close behind.

Not my fault we have mental midgets in this team. :lol:

Sell him to Newcastle in January, who will be desperate for anyone to avoid relegation. We won't get another chance, if we wait until the summer. And rather play Neto for the 2nd half of the season. Get Onana to sign on a free in January (comes in the summer).

He needs to go, same as Lenglet, Alba, Pique and Busquets by next summer at the latest. Coutinho, Luuk, Braithwaite and Umtiti are a given and should be gone by January already. Time to get rid of this shitty mentality. Get them the fuck out of my club!

First manager since Lucho that feels right, at least for me. I knew in my gut the moment they were confirmed, that Valverde, Setien and Koeman weren't it. Setien the only one, who at least had the right ideas, but I knew he would never command the respect needed to lead this team. Xavi has both...

OFFICIAL NOW! :wub: He signs until 2024. The first of hopefully many new contract (extensions) he signs. Welcome home, mister! :barcascarf:

He will bring Luuk back and partner him up with Peter Crouch, who will come out of retirement.

Al Saad have already confirmed it on their twitter and posted pictures from his final meeting and goodbye to wish him well in his future. It's just about Barca officially confirming it now, only a matter of days or even hours.

Xavi and the sheikh of Al Sadd have agreed on the coach's exit. [sport]

I think it will be announced by the weekend, or the start of next week at the latest. :barcascarf:
