    BTW, what is up with all the Mavs fans here of all places?:lol: I am calling it already. If we don't manage to land AD we won't even make the playoffs (yet again) this season. That and a very messed up locker room ready to implode anytime. Maybe that is for the best so we can get rid of all the...

    7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

    Glad to hear about that as the last thing I need to waste my time on is a delusional Coutinho defender here 1+ year into his Barça career after his €160 million (I REPEAT €160 MILLION TRANSFER!) but it is the reality. Not even going to talk about their trophy cabinet where Isco is lightyears...

    Vinícius Júnior

    What did I not just write about the "Marca orchestrated" hype?:lol: Pathetic. Talk about desperate times at RM.

    Copa | Semi Final: Real Madrid - FC Barcelona 1-4 agg.

    Agree with all of your points and would like to elaborate on a few of them if you don't mind. 1) Yes, as usual against RM at the Camp Nou. Although I wish that such atmosphere would be typical of every single home game regardless of opponent. 2) Yes, had Bale had as much space as Vinicius...

    João Félix

    https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20190207/46279449697/joao-felix-fichaje-barcelona.html "Desde hace tiempo" (for quite a while) moreover. A goal or an assist every 96 minutes on average so far in his 12 appearances. Buyout clause of €120 million. Can play as a left winger...

    Malcom

    Him missing such chances (the miss against Sevilla proved harmless and the one yesterday was ruled off-side) is due to him not having had any consistent playing time whatsoever or trust from Valverde. Thus obviously impacting his confidence negatively like it would with any other player. More so...

    Gareth Bale

    Any top club buying a 30 year old and incredibly injury prone Bale for a huge/big sum of money is doing a tremendously bad business. He is only going downhill and it is going rather quick in terms of his decline. Once he loses more pace (this process has already started) he will be even more...

    Keylor Navas

    In complete agreement. Lost the count of how many times Navas bailed RM out in the CL and league during his stint there. Baffling that they spent €35 (or was it even more?) on a 27 year old and inferior goalkeeper in Courtois whose only strength is his height. Navas is superior in every other...

    Nelson Semedo

    Growing by each day. In particularly and most importantly (as this was his achilles heel) offensively. This bounds well and his partnership with Dembélé is bound to reach new exciting and promising heights. It always seemed very strange to me that a player with his characteristics did not show...

    Arthur

    Bossed Modric (still a huge joke that this guy won the Ballon d'Or:lol:) completely and made him look like an old grandpa. That was worth it alone. Modric should have been sent off as well. The amount of dirty tackles that he made after being schooled by Arthur, I stopped counting. Lahoz showing...

    Ivan Rakitić

    It is an absolute disgrace. We played with 9 players yesterday as Coutinho and Rakitic were not on the pitch at all. As usual nowadays.

    7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

    Isco, despite being a ball hog, is twice the player that the overrated Coutinho ever was and ever will be. Coutinho has never and will never suit our system either. Wrote about this 2 years ago here when virtually everyone else was writing pages up and pages down about what a great fit he would...

    Ivan Rakitić

    Another horrible performance. I am sick and tired of seeing him start by default. it's getting comical. His idiotic agent who openly said that "Rakitic leaving Spain anytime soon is impossible" should keep quiet. If our board was more ruthless (as they should be) he would be long gone. In fact...

    Champions League

    I see that nobody has mentioned the fact that UEFA is thinking about removing the away goal rule. This is huge news and very positive news at that too. Should have come much sooner. Apparently this change of rules has the full backing of the managers...

    Lliga | Round 23: Athletic Bilbao - FC Barcelona 0-0

    Another classic in Spain. In fact one of the most played games in Spanish football history to date. Top 3, if I recall. At the San Mamés too. Won't be easy at all given Athletic's recent form and the fact that we played a relatively demanding cup game yesterday night. However at least there will...

    Vinícius Júnior

    Remove his pace and what is left? I don't see anything special about this player that RM paid €61 million for (45 to Flamengo, 8 to his family and 8 to his agent(s)). Malcom looked like twice the player with MUCH less space to operate on. The usual "Marca orchestrated" hype. Decent talent and...

    Copa | Semi Final: Real Madrid - FC Barcelona 1-4 agg.

    :valverde: Great to see Malcom getting a REAL chance and taking it. Messi with a less good 30 minute performance but given his match fitness it was kind of expected. Great game by Busquets and Arthur (second half in particular) as well. Piqué great/good/above average as well in the big games...

    7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

    Coutinho once against a complete and utter waste of space. Not surprised as I saw this coming already 2 years ago and wrote about it openly here as one among a tiny minority of users. The sooner we sell this enormous flop the better. Not even Hristo's open letter changed anything for the better...

    Malcom

    Happy to have been one of this bigger defenders here continuously and always knew that he was a much, much better player than he was showing here so far. Mostly due to a ridiculously low amount of playing time and zero confidence or close to it from Valverde. So it was not exactly strange for...

    Ibrahima Konaté

    I don't think that MDL will ever be better than Piqué (at his best) let alone have a career even remotely similar to him in terms of trophies won, recognition etc. Anyway I am one of the bigger Piqué fans around here and I like the guy a lot but while I rate MDL highly, we need to relax a bit...
