And don't forget that goal against Chelsea in 2009 :p Btw, he never lost a match in which he scored, from what I've heard :worthy: :worthy: :worthy:

The thing is, we have to make sure we keep winning our league games. Sure, it's Osasuna, and it's at home, but still. Maybe we should sub him on. Or sub him off when we're up by 3-4 goals.

To be fair, using Alba and Alves at the same time makes our attack that much better. And it's worked out pretty well when we used Pique and Puyol along with them. IMO, the problem is when we go for Alba-Pique-Mascherano-Alves. Then we have 2 attacking fullbacks plus a CB who's not an actual CB...

I hear he usually sees a dip in form mid-January. Imagine what will happen once he goes back to Chuck Norris mode :p

Our defense is good when Pique and Puyol are playing together. I'd definitely rather not use Mascherano in the CL matches though. Anyways, we should definitely be able to win the CL, as long as we play like we were playing 2 weeks ago. We should be back to that form by the time the CL matches...

Di Maria: That's my boy! Anyways, the kid was being a cunt, but no need for Hazard to get himself sent off for it. He should have let the ref handle that situation. Besides, the ref would have added more injury time because of the kid's time-wasting anyway.

Indeed. I can see why he's benched at the moment though. What I can't see is why Sanchez was played over him a bunch of times this season.

He's probably still better than that Adan guy. So no matter how you look at it, him not playing is good for us.

Not saying much, since Alexis' finishing is about as good as that of Torres, Downing and Andy Carroll :p

He's better than Reina, from what I've heard. But benching him for a season could be a good idea (give him time to get used to Barca and all that). Anyways, the only goalie I can think of who's at Barca's level and (somewhat) experienced who we can realistically get is Lloris.

Masch: Ok signing. Not great, not terribad. Afellay: Good for his price. Sanchez: Shit Fabregas: Awesome Alba: Awesome Song: Remains to be seen. 19m is a little excessive for a backup, but we did need a backup to Busquets with Masch usually playing as CB. I'd rather have gotten a CB and made...

Imagine if we did have a world class goalie with godly goalkeeping skills. We'd probably be fucking invincible. The great thing about getting someone young like Courtois or Ter Stegen is the fact that we can also mold them to fit our system. So in a few years, we have a world class goalie who...

Indeed. It's not like he's the best goalie in the world, or a key player. He's quite easily replaceable.

The defense is fine when Puyol and Pique play together, but you're right, he's getting old, and Mascherano's not a CB, so we definitely need to get one this summer. Anyways, we haven't really been relying on outscoring the opposition lately, the 5-4s that were happening in the beginning of the...

Actually, we've made some great transfers in the past (Alves, Villa), but we've also made some shitty ones (Ibra, Sanchez). Our transfers aren't as bad as people say, but they do seem to be hit-or-miss. I just hope this transfer is one of the great ones.

At least Galatasaray is better than QPR. Who I hear Sneijder was linked with :p

GOATssi :worthy: :worthy: :p

Fixed :p It'll be Iniesta-Messi-Neymar until Deulofeu gets promoted though. I hear Neymar prefers the left but can play on either wing.

IMO, what we should get is a winger who can score goals and play as striker if needed. Which is why Neymar could be perfect, albeit risky. Plus Messi and Neymar together (being fed by Xavi, Iniesta and Fabregas) sounds awesome. Especially when Deulofeu joins in in a few years.

Indeed. Besides, a team of Barca's caliber deserves a goalie of that caliber. Which Valdes just isn't. The competition could have been good for him though. Hurts himself more than it hurts us though. Now he gets to either sit on the bench or win fuck all (maybe both), while being paid half of...
