    Marc Bartra

    His only hope is to be Pique's direct backup, but I don't think Lucho sees it that way. And even if that was the case, that's still very few minutes.

    Thiago Translantara

    I don't remember anything arrogant about Thiago.

    By the way, we can forget about Xavi coming back (and our other legends) as long as Bartomeu is in charge. That's an interesting question. In some presidential systems you can run for a second term after your first and the one in which you took over from a resigning president, as long as the...

    Only further supports my theory. :) Thanks for elaborating.

    Pretty sure we had talks with Lucho before Bartomeu took over from Rosell. Allegedly there was even a verbal agreement that he would take the coaching spot the next season, because he couldn't leave Celta the same summer he took the job there. Which is why we got Tata as a temporary solution.

    Some of those aren't dramatic, to be honest. You don't expect the B team to get back to the Segunda under a president who campaigns on "Selling players from La Masia is good for the club's economy". Also the comments on Middle Eastern connections aren't exactly false. What Barca needs at this...

    Genius. :lol: The similarity in their trajectories is uncanny. :lol:

    As expected. The age group which is the least likely to be well informed and up to date, and the most likely to be susceptible to borderline-illegal and bullshit campaigning we've seen recently. Just like in state parliamentary/presidential elections.

    Probably overestimated himself. Not exactly a shocker with those types.

    I'm having a really hard time understanding your post. You seem to be replying to something that I haven't written or read. As usual.

    Yes, every president deserves some credit for what happens during his tenure. But not as much as the actual sporting section. And definitely not to the extent that it neutralizes the incredible amount of shit that happened during that same tenure in terms of administration. This election will...

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    And this is based on what exactly? Bringing a player in depends on three things primarily: interest in the player, interest from the player and available funds. And it's not as if the president himself donates the money for transfers. And we didn't exactly pay peanuts for Neymar and Suarez, so...

    No, he wouldn't. The coach would have. I never said anything about Laporta, so I don't understand what your question is aimed at. You're jumping to conclusions.

    Classic case of someone being given credit for something he had little or nothing to do with. Well done, socis.

    When you look at the big picture, it will really be incredible if Bartomeu gets elected after all the shit that happened during his/Rosell's presidency.

    Arda Turan

    Aleix is a fullback/winger, definitely not what you'd imagine a textbook defender to be. Anyway, I'd rather see Alba wear the 6, in a Roberto Carlos fashion. Or one of Mascherano/Rakitić.

    1 - Victor Valdes

    Well put, TaF.

    Do we have any current results or will we only know after all votes are counted?

    1 - Victor Valdes

    The way I see it, Valdes thinks too highly of himself and has been getting exactly what he deserves since the moment he announced he was leaving Barcelona.

    Martin Montoya

    Inter haven't been at their best lately, but from what they've been doing in this transfer window, it seems like they're preparing a big turn in the right direction.
