    Neymar - v2

    You have a point there. But there are 2 major obstacles here: 1) How do we convince him to take the step down a division just to take the time to learn our style? Remember he is already a full international. Don't think he will entertain the idea of stepping down a level. 2) What is his wages...

    Neymar - v2

    Hmm is he eligible for the B team? I mean, can they field a non EU player?

    Neymar - v2

    I have been thinking the same too. Why not we offer Spurs a year loan deal + option to make it full transfer? Seriously I have nothing against Neymar, but his price tag is just ridiculous. FFS he is just too young to be rated at 50ME. Talking about insanely inflated market these days.

    Jordi Alba

    Finding a ready made replacement for Abidal in our system will always be a tough tough job. Yes our new left back must have certain, obvious qualities. But the most important quality the new guy must have is the intelligence to learn something new, because Barca's system is so different...

    Jordi Alba

    To be honest its actually hard to really improve upon what we do have now. Question is, who can we buy? Which option is affordable? Yes Lahm will be a significant upgrade for our left back department. But can we afford him? Gotta admit that I'm not the club's accountant, but I think it is easy...

    Jordi Alba

    I agree with Theconomist here. IMO as great as La Masia's record at producing players for our first team, any so called 'future plans' for youngsters who are still playing with B team or lower teams should be dropped immediately. We should let them grow at their own pace. This is crucial during...

    Eric Abidal

    Guys I see that sometimes you call Abidal as 'Bilal'. Is that his nickname among the players? Regarding the news, well there were 2 times I shed my manly tears in the past 10 years; the first was exactly a year ago, the second one is today......siigh...anims Abi.

    David Luiz

    I think box to box midfielder is the best role for him. If he defends poorly as a CB, how can he do it better as a DM? The best is to minimize his defensive reponsibilities he carries IMO.

    Sign a replacement for Villa?

    No, coz Hleb's coming back.

    Oriol Romeu

    I'm confused now. So is there any buy back clause in the deal included? If it is included, how can Chelsea refuse any deal?

    Should La Liga feature fewer teams?

    I think 16 teams is too few though. 8 games lesser will create holes in Liga fixtures, and I think that's too much !

    Should La Liga feature fewer teams?

    Bringing the number down to 18 will deduct 4 league games for each team. 4 CDR matches, which are traditionally played mid week, can now be played during weekends. Not only this will give players more time to rest during those extra free mid weeks, it also can actually increase the quality of...

    Your Favourite Moment of Pep's era?

    Most promising youngster that flopped?

    Anyone remember Toni Calvo? Touted as the new Ronaldinho back then iirc. Left Barca for Aris, and now at Levski Sofia.

    Which attacking trident?

    Sanchez arrival should only mean there are more rotating options. So I expect him to share playing time with MVP equally once he has integrated into our system. But if we reach the UCL final again, with a fully fit squad, sorry Sanchez, but MVP should get the nod.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v1

    Is this the source? http://failureisntfallingdown.tumblr.com/post/7734642528/an-open-letter-from-lionel-messi-after-the-game-against Yeah it looks fake. The author said he translated himself, but no reference to the original letter.

    Pep's picks

    Yes Ibra scored goals. That is the best part from him, despite all those gelling-in problems he was facing. We should question Pep why Ibra found himself in such difficulties. Thinking that the team spent so much on Ibra, surely there was already a proper scouting job done on him, and Pep...

    Daniel Alves

    Tough tough tough question indeed. But I believe we already have the answer from the market. Adriano Correia FTW!!

    Pep's picks

    Ibra was Pep's signing, yes. And he dumped him. Perhaps it was because Ibra had all the difficulties to gel into the system, but Pep and his backroom staffs should have scouted Ibra more thoroughly before signing him. Ibra was too static on the pitch, and Pep looked so clueless on how to use him.

    Clubs from other leagues that you like.

    Currently, none. But I used to like Milan from 2000-2006. Their midfield was a monster back then. Pirlo, Rino, Ambro, Seedorf, Kaka, Rui Costa, Serginho, Leo.
