    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    Let's all agree he is done at this level. A loan would be good to see if he can get it back, but currently offers next to nothing. Offered some counters to RSO though,

    Spanish Cup Quarter Final: Barca - Real Sociedad 1-0

    We will find the answer to 5 at the back, A.K.A double decker bus. But for now we seem to have found an answer for gegenpressing and counters. Our real issue is we have exactly one starting lineup, and beyond that is pure chaos with mediocre players who drop our level significantly. It's to be...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Yeah, agreed. Consistently would mean to have at least an above average game for his level, every game. He has too many bad games before showing up with a masterclass like this. We need more. MORE!

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Doesn't it seem like with play with 10 men while he is on? His only contribution is on touch fancy passes that fail 90% of the time. Not sure we need a pure 9 for this system we are playing. Let's hope we find a way to get him more involved.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    If he can play like this consistently, he is a WC player. Amazing game!

    Erling Haaland

    I really don't follow Man City, so haven't seen his overall game. But it looks from numbers alone, he is a scoring machine. Not a bad asset to have I guess.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    Messi won't touch Barca as long as laporta is here. And rightly so. Leaving was the best thing he did for himself. H wouldn't have won the world cup, if he has stayed. Also, led us to at least try to move on. Like I said before, he should have left after Anfield. That hard carrying session...

    11 - Raphinha

    I don't think he is still comfortable with the system, even though he has been tried on the right and on the left. Apart from the system, his dribbling is lacking for a winger, so he can't break free most of the time. Provides dangerous crosses though. I would swap for another left winger, even...

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    Well, this is not his best position, that is not his best position and so on and so forth. We currently don't have another pure 9 and fat got a nice chance to prove he can bring something positive. Don't light up the world with dribbling or skills. No need. Just stop having heavy touches with...

    8 - Pedri

    That back pass from hell though.. wtf.

    Franck Kessie

    Hilarious where ever he plays. Once Pedri got tired and this bum came on, we lost all control. Also missed a sitter by being extra slow.

    7 - Ferran Torres

    Do we have a dribbling attempt / success rate for this cat? Or a shots / goal ratio? If it's not really low, I will be truly surprised. We need something out of him, or none will buy him even for half the price.

    Daniel Alves

    In reality, our society has been treating women like third class citizens with husbands beating and abusing them and not believing accusations like that of Alves, for far too long. A few gold diggers who take advantage of such events, doesn't justify us being dismissive or suspicious of all...

    La Liga Round 17: FC Barcelona - Getafe 1-0

    Don't listen to anyone.. your priorities seem pretty good. You can always avoid Barca forum for a day and watch the game the next morning during work. That's my go to solution most of the time I have something other to do. Have fun. Barca gonna smash it anyway. Vamos!

    Daniel Alves

    Still, why terminate a player's contact on an allegation that hasn't even seen a court. The claim could turn out to be true or false. Damning the guy before anything is final, at least law wise, is just wrong. Things have gone from never trusting such claims to blindly believing them. If it...

    Bayern will absolutely trash these bums!!! hahahah

    Copa - Round of 16: Ceuta - Barca 0-5

    I wouldn't underestimate anyone without our starting 11 in their best positions. We might look like having kind of a good bench but it's far from the truth. Lewa should play, as he needs game time to be ready to destroy ManU. We can rotate some players though especially in defense, as we won't...

    Xavi Hernández

    There is an easy way to see xg and stats in general are NOT a representation, but an approximation of reality. The calculated probability of something happening based on previous iterations has absolutely no impact on what will happen and cannot predict a single thing. You can calculate...
