South America can handle cold, rainy nights in Stoke... but can Europe handle hot, humid nights in Barranquilla?

We aren't signing both. We are signing one, and one of them isn't enough.

We should consider playing like Stoke or any "bully" EPL team at this point. Paulinho and Gomes need to be the big bad bullies of the mid, with crazy sliding tackles and the ability to play long balls to Suarez and Messi. Come to think of it, it wouldn't be bad at all. We could play a 4-4-2 with...

This is just getting too disgusting for me. I'm starting to have a bad taste in my mouth about this club as a whole. For the socis to be this gutless and allow shit like this to happen is insane. I hope RM thrashes us now since the higher ups clearly don't give a shit about the Barca values.

Wow, I didn't know he had ties to Chinese companies. Thanks for the clarification. Makes a lot of sense now.

For people that are in tune with the corruption of the board: Can you guys tell me the financial motivations behind this transfer? Is it to keep the Barca market alive in Brazil after the departure of Neymar? was it part of Neymar's shady deal to bring in Paulinho? I'm trying to see what...

Mate we are fuked, no two ways about it. Majority of fans on this board know it too.

He won't even think of coming until this corrupt board is gone.

I can't believe this, but our team is really going down the drain. I can't believe the people of Catalunya and the socios can sit around and let this happen. Seems like the foreign fans see the writing on the wall more clearly than the Catalans. If Sergi leaves, that will be massive and a huge...

Hadn't Cristiano gotten the red card, it could have ended differently... If you don't see it as bad then you should rewatch the match. Half of our squad is deadweight, Iniesta is practically an old man now, and with Neymar gone we have even less space for Messi than before. It's shaping up to...

Had a very good match. Glad he still cares.

This season might be bad, REALLY BAD. We either need Coutinho or Dembele immediately (as in, before the 2nd leg) or the board needs to resign. The presence of Neymar, even if he was poor, was enough to make this a great team. Now that he's gone it's back to 4-5 players on Messi since everyone...

His form is very worrying for over a year now. I would offload him if possible and if a good opportunity arises.

I agree but if the reports of him handing in a transfer request are true, then Liverpool is screwed either way. Player stays = less motivation and fans giving him a hard time.

Extremely surprised by Coutinho. I thought he was totally happy at Liverpool. I guess even the most satisfied players are willing to come to barca if the opportunity presents. A bit of a weird situation because I like Liverpool as a club and Klopp is a great coach. Call it capitalism I guess.

He has always been lazy. He still doesn't know how to speak Spanish and hasn't assimilated at all to Spanish culture. Simeone is a great motivator, and I'm sure he will bench and even kick players off the squad if they don't give it their all in practice and in game. Lucho used to be like that...

First time in a loooonnggg while that I feel completely pessimistic about a match with RM. We need some tactical miracles from Valverde this season.

25 m is a very good price for him. I don't think he is going to make it here.

We Valencia FC now

ESPN USA just said that an agreement has been reached. Pretty sure it's unreliable, but just putting it out there. Very weird transfer season. Sources are battling eachother.
