    Penal Madrid

    What you actually need is to score when you inevitably have those spells of heavy pressure and lots of chances on Atletico. If once a gain you bottle it, and Atletico is allowed to settle down, you're in trouble. Conceding early would be more of a problem if you were away. I think RM can...

    Sergi Roberto

    Once again, Roberto first choice youngster off the bench. Going to wait for a bigger sample size, but right now two things I'll keep an eye on: One, once again it'll be interesting to see if Roberto continues to take minutes from Rafinha as it's looking like the last couple of weeks Roberto...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Only facts are facts. If all you have to go are speculations, word of mouth and rumors, that's hearsay, that's not factual. In any case, I wasn't speaking directly about any of your comments, just the general tenor of the thread, which has some downright mind-boggling comments.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    I thought people might have learned their lesson with the "Messi is declining" bullcrap after all that garbage that was said and how Messi responded to it this season. But no, the first little down period shows up and lo and behold people start coming out the woodwork with the same tired narrative.

    I look and look, but only see speculation and hearsay being passed as fact.

    11 - Neymar Jr. - v4

    Who the hell is this guy? and how the hell did he get into Barcelona? Seriously, I thought we were done with charity cases after we took Douglas.

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Why can't they be better than Rakitic? Pogba is not the only fish in the sea, and for €70M I can go and get great players from other teams. Certainly that money will entice Atletico to let go of Koke. Team is going to have a lot of money, but they'll also need 2 CMs, which both will cost a...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    €70M total would be my limit. Team needs 2 CMs and 1 RB, can't go forking all the money on 1 player and then having to go to the bargain bin again for the Vermaelens and Douglases.

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Meh I also wouldn't read too much into these offers. Not only is the ban in place, but with the elections in the middle, not sure how feasible all these supposed offers really are. They look to me more like election propaganda and smoke than actual tangible things.

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    I hope the new board vetoes this move. I like Pogba, but these fees + wages are ridiculous.

    If Pogba could be had for €70m, I'd do both.

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Barcelona just need a hard cap on Pogba. Set themselves limits and say, "this is as far as we're willing to go, they are fair limits, so you either want to be here or you don't" and then move on if it doesn't happen. I like Pogba as a player, but all this drama and entitlement for a player who...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    There's no double standards. If you watched Dortmund play you'd know Gundogan individually does not look the same as he did before his injury. Dortmund struggles notwithstanding, the player himself is not to the level he was before his injury. Might he recover, it's possible, but right now...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Gundogan was really really good before his injury. Yes, I would put him in the same category as those player if he never got injured. Alas he was in fact injured, and has not looked the same since coming back.

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Gundogan hasn't looked the same since coming back from injury. Not nearly as impactful as before, specially on the defensive side. It might take him longer to regain his form, but then again, he might never do so.
