    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    A big reason why, barring any noteworthy injuries, there's no reason not to consider extending Lewy another year...even at his age, he's still a beast and fits this team like a glove Would he be happy cashing a small check as a rotational goalscorer or get obscene cash in the gulf - I think...

    Manchester United

    Xavi would be an interesting choice but no way he jumps into club wreckage without a pre-season, again. Plus, they went the ETH route already and his style didn't work either ManYoo has problems no one associated with the club is prepared to repair long-term - it's a marketing entity that...

    That escalated quickly, looks probable he exits…and for big money

    Joan Laporta

    FAs in Europe are not meant to serve FIFA/UEFA but their own country’s infrastructure Money from broadcasting & international competitions incentivizes individual FAs to land the most lucrative piece of the pie, even when it comes at the expense of their own long term health of all their clubs...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Take a gander at the clubs that were coerced into the CVC deal by Tebas & Liga and how they have fared since 2021 - pay attention to the 3 clubs who did not sign on (Hint (in green) - they are the only ones to have increased their value) Girona as part of the state club does not count due to...

    Tebas enforces those rules and assessing its compliance while indiscriminately applying different standards, dependent on the club

    Jan Virgili

    You always hope to get more money but a great deal, Barça still have plenty of say over a player who could really blow up

    3 - Alejandro Balde

    I think his problem is more that he is not a natural/instinctive defender, more a player who relies on his physical skills to get out of trouble defensively. I do think his crossing is actually quite good, when he has time But to summarily discount his speed or dribbling ability because he...

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    Against a low block, he will have these adaptation issues - I still believe it was a shrewd experiment by Flick to line up like that vs Levante. And unlike most here, I thought he actually played well - the hook was normal as the tactics were tweaked to chase the result...and it worked It'll...

    Incorrect term, realism cynicism

    16 - Fermín López

    Feels like a soft push of player to exit and potentially finance a late central defender acquisition before market closes - but seems too late to play this route. January more likely but if there’s any chance to finance a move for Bastoni, then a push is fine by me

    Camp Nou

    I was curious about timing for phases and yesterday was first I read that 1B likely to be completed by end of International break (Late September). So from October on (Only vs Valencia with 27k), we’ll have at least 45k - effectively a horseshoe without Gol Nord…until 1C. Gotta believe that...

    That is also why there are two legal complaints lodged against La Liga & Tebas - one over indiscriminate yet restrictive FFP process and the other on removal of Tebas

    Chelsea purportedly in for a rumoured 50M offer of player - unclear if true or if Laporta/Deco would go against Flick here

    Laporta to blame, obviously
