    Were you guys watching during half time? What were they saying about Mourinho? They're giving him a blank check to coach PSG?

    State of La Liga

    By sugar daddies, I'm talking about rich arabs/russian oligarchs with unlimited ressources and no one to answer to (Chelsea, Man City, PSG, Malaga, Anzhi, etc.). And yeah, the EPL is more attractive. For obvious reasons (language, more money in the UK than Spain, international visibily). Not...

    State of La Liga

    Euh, Malaga and Getafe have just been bought by sugar daddies. I don't think they care much about the league as long as they have a new shinny toy to play with.

    State of La Liga

    Even if tv revenues were shared more equally, it wouldn't change much. Let's say we cut Barça's and RM's tv revenues in half and we give the rest to the other teams. They would each receive about 8 millions euros. Sure it would help them stay afloat, but it would do nothing to stop the...

    5 - Carles Puyol

    Maybe he didn't know he'd be involved in the ceremony until he arrived in Monaco.

    So chic!

    Ibrahim Afellay

    I don't agree with that. Pep has four players for three starting spots at the front: Messi, Pedro, Villa and Alexis. Let's say he goes with Messi, Pedro and Alexis. Then I don't think Villa will come in as a sub. That would go against the whole point of rotation and resting players. Afellay is...

    Iker Casillas

    Iker is a lot more important for RM than Mou will ever be. I'm sure Mou knows it and he knows that he'll never win the battle if the two are against each other. The press, the fans, the spanish players, they'll always side with Iker.

    Ibrahim Afellay

    But is he really as high profile as we make him to be? And does he think he is? The question is does he prefer to be the super sub at FC Barcelona or a starter on a lesser team. We don't know the answer. If it's option 2, then yeah we should sell him because he'll probably never be a first...

    Ibrahim Afellay

    Or Pep could just rest Iniesta instead of playing him as a winger just for the sake of putting him on the pitch. And even if he plays, one or two of the three forwards will get subbed out at some point and Afellay will come in.

    Ibrahim Afellay

    We had Bojan and Jeffren and Afellay as subs last season and now we have Alexis and Afellay. That's one less forward. If anything, he'll play more than last year. He's not really competing with Cesc despite him possibly playing false nine because Messi almost play every minute of every game...

    Iker Casillas

    Iker was there during the trophy presentation and he was all smile so I doubt any of this is true.

    Lol. That has to be speculations by Marca. Or else he's really gone mad :lol:

    Jose Mourinho

    And by crossing the line like that, he's at risk of losing the respect of his players. Iker sounded bitter in his post game interview, but I assume he wasn't exactly trilled with his coach after seeing on tv what really went down on the sideline.

    Jose Mourinho

    "true" as opposed to "pseudo-Madridistas". But you're right, it wasn't used in the same sentence.

    Jose Mourinho

    Not really. But a guy can hope. At one point both sides will have to stop playing games. They look ridiculous and Mourinho more than anyone. I just don't understand how some of you guys can just shrug it off, saying "well, good enough for me". The only people he apologized to are the "true...

    Jose Mourinho

    But despite Tito's retaliation, how hard is it to just say "I apologize to all the players, coaches, officials and fans. Things got heated and I lost control for a moment. I shouldn't have. I'm sorry". Instead, this half-assed apology, with its carefully chosen words, is just more oil on an...

    Lol. Bleacherreport is one of the stupidest sports websites on the internet. A place where every fanboy can pretend he's a serious journalist.
