Depends what you mean by good I suppose. It's more physical. Attackers are protected far more in La Liga and this makes it easier for them.

It's not. It's the fact the games are faster and more competitive. Plus there isn't as many stoppages for silly fouls. It's more watchable especially to Americans. :-)

Really? They struggled with PSG and you beat them quite comfortably. They where outplayed at home the season before that by A Madrid. Chelsea would probably get 4th but I think they would be behind the big 3. As for arsenal United and Liverpool. Yea I changed that after. I was probably being a...

The reason why the EPL is more popular isn't because of the quality. La Liga is far superior. It's because the games are more competitive, faster and exciting to watch. Ultimately teams like Arsenal, Utd and Liverpool would be about around europa league positions in La Liga. Chelsea is the only...

The problem with that theory is he won't go back to be a backup. At least not until he's older.

It will be interesting to see how Cleverly gets on with us next season. Fergie rated him very highly and so does Martinez. Herrera is at about the same level as McCarthy which is decent and one of our best players but still in world football terms nothing special.

I suppose average was harsh. Maybe nothing special would have been more accurate.

Herrera has been pretty average since he joined. No way is he worth 25m.

They certainly whipped us in pre-season last year when Nolito scored a hat-trick and frankly we could barely get a kick. However we where horribly unfit at the time and where having a nightmare of a pre-season which set the tone of the season. They where still a good team although Nolito was...

Just to clarify. We tried to sign him last season and I'm sure plenty of English clubs have done so. He would appear not to want to leave Spain. Fantastic player.

Come on spread a bit of the love around. You just won the treble and make how many millions in revenue? Why do you care.

I totally agree since there was never any sign of that at Everton. He actually seemed like quite a quiet lad of the pitch with a long term girlfriend and little dog. They appear to be a really sweet couple. I think because people see how he plays they naturally assume he's an arrogant...

Deulofeu just tweeted. "Once a blue, always a blue" We love this kid.

He doesn't have the maturity to make at the top level yet. He still might. I always thought loaning to Sevilla was a mistake since I didn't think the tough love approach would work. He was developing well under Martinez, eased in initially, giving him a run in the league cup where he was a class...

I think most people think it's going to be a 3 year buyback option. If he goes back it will hurt but at this stage I just want to see it confirmed.

Makes sense really.

His girlfriend has just tweeted and her locating was Liverpool, England plus the local journalists seems to know something concrete. Looks like his transfer to Everton might happen either today or tomorrow.

As an everton fan I'm delighted about this transfer and I think it will be the best thing for Deulofeu. Loans aren't working for him and he didn't want another so it's understandable. The deal I believe allows Barca to get him back for up to 2 years so it has a lot of the advantages for you...

Surely if he wants to go Barca won't keep him. I can't imagine he fancies another season on the bench and with Pedro staying he won't even be getting nothing minutes at the end of games.

So with Pedro signing a new deal does that mean Deulofeu is leaving?
