    Are we favourites for the next Champions League?

    tbf, this happened while they were missing Pacho who was their best CB and the only athletic one. Beraldo is one of those "elegant" CB who lacks proper defensive skill, at least at the moment. Not good athlete or big enough to be imposing, while being mistake prone and lack some awareness. A bit...

    They even said that Farre and Virgili impressed Flick, just for them to be taken out of the Asian tour. Last year they even said it about Valle

    Are we favourites for the next Champions League?

    More like balanced football. Teams like Inter and Atletico would struggle to go all the way to the trophy in this age and era, but almost every team that won it had good defense

    Nico Williams

    There were already reports about such a long term deal with Bilbao since April, I think it was @Horatio who posted it here. This isn't just a family thing, Nico wanted it and he played both clubs to get the deal he wants. His brother won't go out and say "we leveraged Barca to get more money...

    Jan Virgili

    4th division creating problem is a myth, plenty of La Liga clubs has their reserve teams playing their and don't have a problem keeping their talents. Virgili is a player who joined Barca a year ago, and barely has any loyalty to the club. He saw he has no chance to play with first team while...

    Gianluigi Donnarumma

    Donnarumma is one of those GK whose form dependent on being fully focused and being locked in, when he is like that he is the best in the world, when he isn't he is bang average with silly mistakes. This year he had shitty season in the French league and very good one in CL, because of how...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Gabriel has scored a total of 11 goals in both EPL and CL in the last two seasons combined. He was never a starting caliber player, but now he is shit, injury prone player who is getting older.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    There is no option, and there is a rumour he already agreed a deal to move to Saudi in 2026

    Hector Fort (loaned to Elche)

    Fort is in his last year of contract, and the only rumour about his contract was that he declined our offer at the end of last season, iirc it wasn't even from a credible source. Nothing else I've seen, we hear about renewals of Torres, Frenkie etc but not him. Obviously, you don't loan him...

    FC Barcelona Finances

    From what I understand, though, it will be the last resort to use those exceptions as it can bite you later (didn't get fully why) so they want to try to register them normally. But the situation makes registeration granted

    @jamrock you asked about the registration new rules

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Fort never looked decent IMO, but each have different opinion. He is expiring contract, unlike Aznou, he looked really bad too and he lost his spot to a CB. He will have lot of leverage where he go, and unless EPL club wants him, we will be lucky to get anything more than 5M for him. Same for...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Fort looked worse when they faced each other, and looked like the worst Barca player last season not named Dominguez We sold Pau for bigger package, while he played half the minutes in top division while being almost 5 years older than Aznou.

    22 - Marc Bernal

    Olmo ain't leaving anytime soon, he won't have offers with his injury history and age (he will be 28 by next summer) and he is tied to a contract until 2030. And the moment Frenkie signs a contract, he will stay until it is over, we played that game before and at some point folks need to get...

    22 - Marc Bernal

    I think if he leaves, it will be loan, hence Betis is also mentioned. Gavi came back from ACL last year and barely made an impact and he had far more experience with the first team. I could see the club thinking about Bernal developing for a year in another setting. Highly unlikely, though

    Alexander Isak

    This is the harsh truth. But it is just simpler for fans to say "there is no talents" instead of analyzing it. I don't blame them though, it is an entertaining industry and you don't need deep understanding for it, "you don't see players who are entertaining anymore = talents have declined" is...
