If he actually ends up accepting and coming in the next week, I could very much see Puig getting promoted right away (especially since Alena is now gone on loan), and us selling at least Vidal to Inter before the January window closes, since they already declared Vidal is basically their main...

Exactly :cheers: And whether it's about wanting to get that speed back into our passing and gameplay, or simply the volume of training, he knows how important being physically ready to play the true Barca way is, at least in terms of pressing, not so much stamina, cause we know the true Barca...

As much as I think it might be too early for Xavi to take over, I've never seen him like that. I think he'd be more than capable of distinguishing his role as the player and manager and as far as days off go, considering how disappointed he is with how we're currently playing (like every...

I'd be shocked if after all the shit shows in the past 2,5 years, a Supercopa defeat against Atletico would be the one, who finally tips it over the edge and we actually fire a coach, and even mid-season at that. Still much more likely is Valverde leaving after (if) we don't win La Liga this...

Hopefully it becomes months, but I'd take weeks too. Suarez, Rakitic and Pique are our single biggest problems in the squad right now.

It's too early for Xavi. And I'm sure he won't accept working under Bartomeu anyway, since he's the biggest supporter and even part of Font's campaign for 2021 elections. By then hopefully players like Rakitic and Vidal (these two hopefully in 2020 already), Pique, Suarez, maybe even Roberto...

FDJ would be my second choice, but you can't expect a player, who's only just arrived and has been at the club for 6 months, to be captain, especially when there's still not only senior, but even golden generation players in our team. But after a few years, when all the 30+ players are gone, I'd...

God I almost got a heart attack when I saw this thread among the new forum posts. But I am expecting this sooner than later, Bartomeu is just waiting for one or two big wins to announce it, I bet you Valverde's gonna stay alongside this Board until the very bitter end.

Ter Stegen? He's by far the best leader we've got in the team right now, and is now also at the club long enough and has been consistently brilliant too to be considered for the role. I'd give it to him no contest.

Actually hoping he manages to get out at this point. My only wish is for him to just go on loan WITHOUT any option to buy or even worse. 6 months would be fine, 1,5 year loan straight until 2021 would be even better. And of course get into a club where he plays regularly and keeps developing, in...

Just as shit as our defense, and is actually contributing with his own mistakes, not saving others, like MATS does.

:puke: Hope he fucks off to Inter Miami this summer.

Poor you, thinking a new manager will be here next season. Bartomeu is already guaranteed to go down as the worst president of the club in history, so why not keep his perfect yes man for the last year too? I think an extension has always been on the table, they're just waiting for a big win to...

No one is too weak to knock Valverde's Barca out. No one. And a lot can change in a month or two, they can string together a few wins domestically and you know they'll be extra motivated for us anyway.

If we'd manage to win Supercopa, we would for sure hear the announcement as early as next week. Now they'll probably wait for March and the Napoli tie. Atletico managed to ruin this one, hopefully Napoli can do the same.

I think he actually meant Simeone's first win against Valverde's Barca...which is true. Head to head to Atletico was basically the one thing Valverde had going for him, since we sucked before, but really improved since 2017, always just about winning, but still winning (or at least drawing, I...

Don't tell me you believe this pathetic fairy tell, that Dembele would be as injury prone and shit under a quality manager at a club with a quality doctor team and where physical preparation and quality and actual every day training would be a normal thing and treated as a priority, not like...

Seems like Valverde actually blamed it all on De Jong in his post-match interview, saying how the red card hurt us and such, instead of backing his player up like a normal manager would, or even blaming himself for taking off the one attacker who actually defends, ya know. I wonder it it was...

Antonio Conte has prioritised signing Arturo Vidal above Christian Eriksen. Inter have been heavily linked with the Danish international, but the Italian outlet are reporting Conte sees Vidal as a better option. Oh, if only someone on this Board had a brain: Vidal ---> Inter 20M Eriksen --->...

Sadly I don't think even a trophyless season would be enough to cause the massive changes we desperately need. I imagine it would maybe be enough for Valverde to be let go (but even that's questionable), but that's about it. Only a new Board in 2021 can save us. I'm almost certain that players...
