    Ivan Rakitić

    I mean its quite possible his mind wasn't in the right place..I am not saying this is exactly why but it could be....after all this "will he won't he" shit with Neymar and the board.....its been quite a horrible transfer saga for several of our players if you think about it with not one single...

    Ivan Rakitić

    It also makes sense to a degree..With these distractions, he would be 10% of what he is. And he is right in focusing on settling his career considering the side distractions he has been having for the past month or so thanks to the Neymar drama.... Once he stays or leaves, he will probably play...

    Nelson Semedo

    As opposed to who? Roberto? The truth is there is no Dani Alves out there. He is probably the GOAT modern day RB in terms of what he brought to the table. Lets stop expecting everyone to be that level first of all. Second, why are we expecting Semedo to be this assist machine. Dont we have Alba...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Well the tactic is still pass the ball to Messi and hope for the best.. Even though Messi isn't there, new players like De jong are practising :valverde: On a tactical note though, we so need Vidal..atleast as a sub..not sure why this dumb ass so called "defensive coach" can't see such a...

    Ivan Rakitić

    While i partially agree with you, do you really want to go back to Busquets-Rakitic instead of accepting this small win...

    Sergi Roberto

    I feel he should be sold just for the sole reason that he is versatile (and squad rotational player) and every inadept coach we seem to appoint play him in positions totally (and as a consistent starter) unsuited to him...

    Lliga | Round 3: Osasuna - FC Barcelona 2-2

    well..considering we have Valverde as the coach who do you think was going to get left out?? the underperforming seniors?? :valverde2: Plus Valverde was so happy with Todibo last year that he didnt even make the bench once..go figure :valverde:

    Neymar Jr.

    I doubt Bartro cared about pleasing the fans..I am guessing he wanted to try and please Messi whilst also hoping they win the Champions league somehow.. Would help in the elections.. PSG, like you say, maybe didnt want to let go of their mascot..Even thpugh he is injured, his marketing...

    Neymar Jr.

    Well wouldnt we be replacing an oft injured player with another oft injured player..whilst being poorer by around 200 million or so...The only positive of the entire trade would`ve been that Rakitic would be gone and Valverde cannot start him every game ad nauseam..But if Valverde continues to...

    Neymar Jr.

    Geez what a waste of time if true.. But atleast the board hasnt thrown away more money for a shiny (albeit often injured )new toy with extraordinary salary demands. Wonder what PSG`s end game was.. Thought they were holding off to extract more money from Barca..This is a disaster for them if...

    FC Barcelona to meet BVB, Inter & Slavia Prag in UCL-groupstage 2019/20

    Barca Dortmund at Dortmund should be fun.. Wondering how Barca will cope with the pace, should be good practice. The rest are teams we should thump at home and win/draw away. Anyone knows if we can get Champions league with DAZN in EU? (or is it Sky as usual?)

    Neymar Jr.

    This is getting real boring real fast..How many times have there been rumors of the so called final offer..Come on take Rakitic already :D.. Seriously though, PSG from a position of weakness ( player wanting out) have done well for themselves... Plus come on ..why do we need so many shiny toys...

    Neymar Jr.

    So all PSG wanted was Rakitic included and lesser cash?? :O They couldve saved everyone a whole lot of time by straightup asking.. :D Why do i get the feeling its one of those shady things which got us Neymar from Brazil and would be uncovered in the coming years leading to another penalty for us.

    Neymar Jr.

    well nothing new ..typical day for this board as they continue to appease the players who are already there as well as continue to pour money down the drain with bad buys repeatedly.. ...To think we sold Neymar and bought Dembele and Cou.. and now we are trying to offer Dembele back. ...

    Lliga | Round 2: FC Barcelona - Real Betis 5-2

    Better chance of Valverde selecting himself in the starting 11 than not playing Rakitic after a loss.. Guess what Valverde did when we were 0-0, he brought on Rakitic as if he is the go to person when we need goals. After a loss, I am guessing the first name on Valverde`s team sheet is Rakitic...

    Lliga | Round 2: FC Barcelona - Real Betis 5-2

    Wouldnt be surprised if Valverde goes panic mode and plays an all senior 11 similar to last year.

    Neymar Jr.

    Considering Bayern got Coutinho for a year for 8 million or so and no commitment to purchase a year later rather just an option, no wonder PSG also wants to cash in... Wouldnt be surprised if this board falls for this too and tries to justify how good a deal it is :bartomeu:
