    Ibrahima Konaté

    I don't think that Ibrahima Konaté will be sold for anywhere near the inflated price that Ajax wants for MDL. Not to mention the rumored €10 million commission that Raiola wants to have if a deal is made. It is correct that Leipzig is not a poor club and on the rise and thus unlikely to sell...

    That is the highlight of the decade for the Pelicans. To troll some Lakers fans on Twitter.:facepalm::lol: It's sad as it shows just how little sporting relevance they have had and continue to have as a franchise. They probably won't be talked about as much as they are currently in years.

    Bundesliga

    The DFB-Pokal is of lesser importance than the FA Cup, CdR and Coppa Italia so Bayern winning it in the one-horse league that is the Bundesliga (historically even much, much worse than Ligue 1) is of little importance. Bayern is only a potential competitor in the CL where they have only won the...

    Richarlison

    That is because he never has. I obviously meant on the left as he is a right footer. My fault. Looks special. Fans of Benfica rate him very highly as do opponents (Sporting and Porto) fans as well. Looks like a hybrid between a 9 and 10. Only watched him against Sporting where he scored 2...

    Basketball/NBA

    Looks like AD will move to the Lakers. I just hope that the deal with the Pelicans won't be too one-sided. AD is no Wilt, MJ, Magic, Kobe, Lebron etc. level of talent for us to go full retard.

    Ferland Mendy

    Yes, that is the negative thing here but I preferred not to mention it.:lol: Anyway I don't give much for such statements given who plays for RM currently. Half of their team were publicly known to have declared themselves as Barça "fans" for what it is worth before their transfers to RM. Even...

    Ferland Mendy

    Mendy himself said, not long ago, that he is looking at the upcoming Barça tie as a window of opportunity for him. Basically hinting to a possible exit this summer or in the very near future. However personally I have been more impressed by Junior Firpo who looks like a special talent to me.

    Richarlison

    A Spanish word for enthusiasm, passion and spirit. Something that was given a lot of importance to players in Spain back in the day but is more of a South American trait nowadays. Often said about players who show those characteristics on the field. Players who give it all in other words...

    Matthijs de Ligt

    That is without saying and obviously an added bonus.:bartomeu: Not sure if the Eredivisie is "elite level" to be honest with you. It by no means is unless "elite level" covers the top 15 leagues in Europe. I saw that Feyenoord-Ajax game (6-2!) and it was a shocking defensive display from MDL...

    10 - Lionel Messi - V6

    No idea, but probably MD or somewhere in between.:valverde: I think that if the game on Wednesday night was a more important game, he would probably play for sure. Now Valverde and Messi will have to decide whether playing him will be worth the risk. Likewise Dembélé. However knowing Messi he...

    Atlético Madrid

    Of course not (never said that) but it would be a travesty from our part not to win the league this season. Even in our subpar state point wise and performance wise. Which is saying a lot about Atlético's decline actually. I don't want to take anything away from us (potentially 8 league titles...

    Should Barcelona renew Ivan Rakitić or not?

    First of all it must be said that Rakitic has been a good servant for the club and that he seems like a very likable guy. It is not his fault that Valverde has been playing him constantly without a break for 1.5 seasons. Or that Lucho did pretty much the same thing. However he should by no...

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

    I want to see Malcom in action for more than 5 minutes although that is extremely unlikely. I think that a more open game would suit him very well and give him a much needed boost. It would be a good thing to have a somewhat confident substitute like him in this hectic month and when the season...

    10 - Lionel Messi - V6

    The GOAT got the green light as expected according to Sport. MD claims that he will be a doubt until the last moment where a decision will be taken.

    Ibrahima Konaté

    I am on the same page as Alik. I sometimes (whenever I see your posts around) find it rather difficult to depict what the hell you are on about. Might be due to English being my fourth language but I doubt it.:lol: However at least we agree about the Habesha lot (I could mention the...

    Atlético Madrid

    Centauri B Still in about about Atlético de Madrid being on the decline? Out of the CdR, likely to go out in the CL against Juve and failing to close the gap with us despite our numerous subpar performances this season and us losing more points than usual. Diego Simeone's time in Madrid is...

    Matthijs de Ligt

    MD is the best local paper by far. They were spot on during the entire FDJ saga. I have no doubt that it is not any different this time around. Nothing strange or surprising in him wanting Barça before anyone else. He apparently has a grandmother who lives in Catalunya, has publicly spoken...

    Richarlison

    Him being a talented and young Brazilian attacker goes a long way. If not for Richarlison playing in the EPL and for Everton, he might have been our ideal/favorite attacker to buy already. He has that "garra" aura about him much like Luis Suárez and many of the same strengths of a young Luis...

    24 - Thomas Vermaelen

    He is finished at the highest level in particular against teams with pace and firepower up front like the current Valencia team. Not the same player that he was just 1 season ago IMO. Baffling that a Valverde petition like Murillo has been ignored (not called up) for the past many games. His...

    7 - Philippe Coutinho - V1

    Liked Hristo's public letter to him a lot. We need more past legends publicly voicing their support for players, in particular new ones who are struggling like Coutinho. I am not a fan of Coutinho at all but as long as he is a Barça player he should get all the support he needs. In fact I...
