    10 - Lionel Messi - V6

    I don't understand how people can compare them when it is obvious that Messi is twice the player and even a better goalscorer. Messi is the best creator, distributor and goalscorer all in one player. Better stats. Better trophy cabinet and better player. You only need a pair of two eyes to...

    Supercopa de Catalunya | Final: FC Barcelona - Girona FC 0-1

    Well Kevin de Bruyne missing the rest of the season would be good news for us and every competitor of Man City in the CL as well.;) Although I prefer to see the best players in action and De Bruyne is a gem. In all seriousness, make the B team play this game. I would not risk a single first...

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    With all due respect. Nothing points to that Liverpool trio being better. Neither individually nor collectively. Whether it comes to statistics (actual goals scored and assists made) or team success (trophies). They are better when it comes to counterattacking due to being younger on average...

    José Mourinho

    See post 1517. No point in even speculating as no sane board (not even a drunk Gaspart) would sign him nor would our fanbase ever accept him. He is not the same either. Been on an ongoing downhill for years. He might still have something to offer a club like PSG (should they fail to win the CL...

    Supercopa de Catalunya | Final: FC Barcelona - Girona FC 0-1

    Thank God. May he miss the reminder of the season.:lol: Mújica or Ruiz should get a chance.

    Fun for us and our trophy cabinet for sure.:lol:

    Mohamed Salah

    For me that Mané-Firmino-Saleh frontline has to be one of the more overrated ones in recent memory. Neither of those 3 are top, top players or elite players IMO. However they all fit very nicely in Kloppo's system (that is yet to result in any trophies for Liverpool almost 4 years after his...

    José Mourinho

    1 league title, 1 CDR title and 0 CL titles in 3 seasons cannot be considered as a success at all. That final horrible season was the cherry on the top. We all know under which circumstances that CdR final was won (with a legal Pedro goal ruled offside and extremely brutal play by RM that was...

    Basketball/NBA

    Lakers meltdown as expected and feared by me weeks/months ago. Not the least surprised. However not winning against this Suns team that has nothing to fight for was truly pathetic and a new low. At least Ingram is starting to look like a real gem at last and has added some consistency to his...

    14 - Javier Mascherano

    Mascherano is a banker (almost) but Busquets is more of a surprise to me but not too surprised. I could very well see Mascherano turn into a more offensive and flexible version of Cholo. Or I am just dreaming about such a coach to emerge and for us to grab him.:lol:

    João Félix

    raki I missed the Porto-Benfica game yesterday for obvious reasons although I suspected Benfica would win given their superior form lately. In any case how did Félix do? How highly would you rate him so far a few months into his senior career? I know that the transfer market is insane but I just...

    FC Barcelona Finances

    Wanted to post that article as well a few days ago but forgot doing it. Financial Times is a reputable newspaper and their report was a good read indeed. My criticism of the board was never the part that evolves around the economy, innovation, analytics, technology, even the Espai project etc...

    Supercopa de Catalunya | Final: FC Barcelona - Girona FC 0-1

    The most important trophy this season by far. We should use our strongest possible lineup. :lol:

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    I agree. Similar to my criticism of Valverde despite us winning the double and statistically doing really well. If not for that horrendous Roma game we would have reached the CL-semifinals and who knows have won another treble? Valverde can be blamed for a lot of things (I would have to write a...

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    Fair enough. Can't say that I agree with the exception of a fit PSG frontline which is currently not the case. That is arguable too and a very close call. Liverpool and Man City, I don't see it. They have a more cohesive collective offensively speaking (a genuine system in place for the third...

    Alvaro Morata

    Not the least surprised but certain other users knew better than what I was writing. Similarly with the KPB fiasco. Not that you would have needed to be an Einstein to make those two predictions which is why it was even more baffling that we had users here being vehemently against a cheap loan...

    Gerard Piqué

    Did you deliberately miss this part of my post or did you not understand it? You surely did not expect a 20 year old Piqué to play more than those 13 games in a Man Utd team with a prime Rio and Vidic (their best CB partnership in history arguably) and Brown (third option) who played his best...

    Mavericky Puig

    Had Pep been our manager Puig would already have played at least 10 games (appearances at least) for us this season in the league and CL. Special kind of talent IMO. He has to get playing time in the first team next season. That is why I am in favor of cashing in on a 31 year old Rakitic rather...

    Vinícius Júnior

    His protagonism is only the result of how awful Bale, Carvajal, Asensio, Marcelo and Benzema have been recently. It is not like they have any choice. Isco (one of their few creative options) being frozen out by Solari is not helping either. Bale is a donkey nowadays and a 31 year old Benzema is...
