    Champions League 2024-25

    Despite us being favourite of this side of the bracket, I am not going to get myself worried about who is next. Barca has a decade long history of choking and underachieving in Europe, it is a habit at this point. And as great as we are, we have no backup for Kounde, Balde, Raphinha, Lamine or...

    Liverpool

    I think Nunez will be much better in La Liga btw. Not elite, but Morata's lite

    Liverpool

    Griezmann replacement. It will be 2 attackers system. Alvarez being able to play SS or CF helps. There was a rumour of interest in Fermin too, who directly replaces Griezmann position.

    Ibrahim Diarra

    I figured, but he was so underwhelming in that tournament, it felt it actually decreased his value a bit as everyone was expecting great performance from him and he barely delivered. Guys like Brunner from Germany came out bigger. Which is expected in such tournaments tbf

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    I've recently read about him, you rate him low? Or because of him being young Dutch RB who got chances due to injury of starting RB?

    Ibrahim Diarra

    Who are the other two? Echeverri is probably one but I fail to see who is 3rd. especially from SA.

    7 - Ferran Torres

    La Masia has produced like 3 good healthy (so far) attackers in this century. That is Lamine, Pedro and the GOAT. 2 of those were from 1987 born team. None of them are CF. I would love to see La Masia producing someone better than Ferran but I won't bet on it. We overpaid for him, but as...

    Liverpool

    On the other hand, being second fiddle to great players give you spaces and allow you to attack them, in Liverpool he will be the main star, treated by different standards. I feel he will be better in a club like City for example, where he can be LW starter but not the star of the show.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Zaragoza is below mediocre, I can get behind your logic with Nico, but you lose me with Zaragoza argument. Kid is bang average who fools with couple of good games.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Zaragoza doesn't have a better skill set than Nico, he is nowhere near the level of Barca. He is the type you get on a loan if you fail to sign any of your targets, nothing more

    Liverpool

    It is his hometown club, and he will get paid handsomely there.

    Khvicha Kvaratskhelia

    Regardless of Nico, but this is rarely true. The idea that an attacking player will flourish under a more attacking system is a bs. It is how you get the likes of Roque, Arda and Griezmann and then fall of a cliff. Attacking teams usually find less defensive spaces, and vice versa.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Top 5 from EPL will play in CL. They need just 1 more win from any of their teams to secure top 2 coefficient this season. Chelsea alone is granted that. Never mind that other leagues will lose points anyway. Newcastle has a decent chance to secure such a place. Liverpool and Arsenal are safe...

    FC Barcelona: Win of the youth system

    I've read about him few months ago, one of the most highly rated young GK out there. I am all for going after him, however, Barca needs to decide on their own GK talents in such a case, mainly Kochen, and Yaakob if he renews

    Rafinha Alcantara

    Just realised he was a tv analyst for the game today. He is a free agent since summer, he didn't announce retirement yet but it feels like he is a retiree now, at the age of 31. Injuries has ruined him even more than his brother, he was actually a good player, who was a hardworking b2b who...

    Premier League 24/25

    "Probably" makes it sound like there is a doubt about that. Both him and VVD are undeniably 2 of the best players to ever play in their history. And TAA is one of their best players too, and they might lose all 3. Could even push Alison out to make a spot for Mamardisvhille. Without a...

    I don't see many Liverpool fans getting excited about next transfers tbh.

    I keep opening it, and barely read anything before closing it.

    Joan Laporta

    People love to judge decisions based on what they would have done, rather than actually getting shit done. That's the same old story in everything. Whether it is people talking about politics in the family gatherings, sports in the bar, clients of yours who has no idea about whatever they are...
