    Gerard Piqué

    Okay, that's true, but then again, it's not as if Madrid would have retained the title if Barca hadn't won. They would no longer be holders regardless of who it was in the Supercup, and who won.

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    Surprised, but happy for Suarez. I was sure that Neymar would be voted ahead of him in any best-player shortlist.

    Gerard Piqué

    True. I take back whatever I said about Pique maybe being captain ahead of Mascherano. He's still way too playful and maybe childish. I was going to say "a captain would handle this gracefully", but there was nothing to handle. As you say, RM wasn't even involved in this. It's just childish to...

    1 - Victor Valdes

    Notice that I wrote "all celebrity overdoses". Some of them definitely are depression-related, no doubt about that, but some of them are simply people overdosing. Common sense tells you that. You won't see as many poor people overdosing, you know why? Because they don't have money to buy a...

    I noticed that, too. :lol:

    1 - Victor Valdes

    Dude, you took the discussion there yourself. Nobody else was providing comparisons with rich CEOs and company owners quitting.

    1 - Victor Valdes

    Are you really asking this question? It absolutely does, because it's literally the difference between not knowing if you and your children will have anything to eat next week and knowing that you can live comfortably for years to come. I know you're trying to prove a point about rich people...

    So it's equally as hard to quit your job when you have nothing and when you have millions in the bank?

    1 - Victor Valdes

    Poor Victor, continued playing football despite his hatred of it and ended up a millionaire. Some really childish and downright senseless posts in this thread. Also, whoever thinks that all of celebrity overdoses are depression-related is dead wrong.

    European Supercup: Barca - Sevilla 5-4

    Thanks for the recaps, guys. Luckily we won, but holy shit, not in a million years would I expect this team to concede 4 goals after how they played last season.

    European Supercup: Barca - Sevilla 5-4

    I missed the game, but saw the result and how it changed throughout the game. Can someone explain to me how we went from 4:1 to 4:4, a quick recap? :lol:

    Ivan Rakitić

    Not a fan of the new haircut. :lol: And in general, whenever he's off the pitch, he combs his hair over his forehead, probably to hide his receding hairline. I know other guys who do this. I don't like that look, too Bieber-esque to me. To me, it ends up looking more embarrassing than hair loss...

    Pedro Rodriguez

    That's a good point, but it doesn't necessarily translate to his minutes. If Suarez was out for some reason, it would still be Pedro on the pitch, probably on the right, with Messi in the center again. And if Messi was out, Pedro would again play on the right. Basically he's the first to come in...

    11 - Neymar Jr. - v4

    And none of those complaints were unjustified. You make it seem like those assumptions were based on nothing. There was nothing to suggest that either Rakitić or Enrique would be as good as they turned out to be. No one had a way of knowing exactly how any of them would work at Barca, so in...

    11 - Neymar Jr. - v4

    At times. Other times his touch and ball control are absolutely mesmerizing. Like that goal against RM. That entire period was pretty damn good for him. He had amazing games.

    Adriano Correia Claro

    I don't see why this is suprising. We have a transfer ban, which means that at best, we'll have the same squad as last season, but we've already seen Montoya leave. I don't find it unusual that we want to keep every player here for the time being. Regardless of who it is.

    Douglas Pereira dos Santos

    I guess joking about it is the least painful way of coping with what a mess that transfer was.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Yes, the lack of any reaction from the player would suggest that he knows he provoked Messi. At least that's how I see it, too.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Umm.... where the hell did you take this? It's not a matter of philosophy, there are rules that you abide by on the pitch.

    Ivan Rakitić

    It's actually upsetting that there's truth to that. :lol:
