    Christian Eriksen

    Starting to think that he might be or should be an option already this summer if he does not extend his contract with Tottenham and we miss out on De Jong or a new midfielder other than Rabiot. With a contract that runs out in the summer of 2020, selling him this upcoming summer will be Levy's...

    Franck Ribéry

    Say what you want about Ribéry the person but man was he a good player when he was at his best. I remember wanting him badly during the spring and summer of 2009 when strong rumors were linking him with us and RM. It is a bit of a joke that he never won the Ballon d'Or back in 2013 instead of C...

    Timo Werner

    What a coincidence. Abidal is definitely monitoring this forum (in particular my posts) as closely as the transfer market.:abidal: Now I expect Ibrahima Konaté to be next.

    Maxi Gomez

    His technical level is my main worry as well. He is no Ronaldo Nazário de Lima nor your typical Barça number 9 of late. If I should compare him with someone it would be a slower and less technically gifted Kluivert. He is quicker and better technically than what it would seem like at first...

    Maxi Gomez

    I like Maximiliano Gómez a lot. Fits the profile and the physical aspect is an added bonus. Genuine proven goalscorer both in Uruguay and in Spain so far as well. Not expensive at all compared to the other options. Young. Would probably have no problem acting like a nominal substitute for his...

    Adrien Rabiot

    I like the hair though.

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    You have to have in mind that the young generation that I am a part of are not as reliant on the traditional local press as past ones or the present older generation. That explains why the likes of Gerard Romero have the following they have on Twitter. The local press has also lost a lot of...

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    You probably know my view about the current board. I have been saying pretty much the same thing ever since I joined. One of the harshest critiques of this board in fact. My point was merely that I would pick a lot of past and present board members to make an example of before Cordoner...

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    Jordi Cardoner is actually one of the more competent members of the board. Grandson of Nicolau Casaus who was one of the most famous and accomplished board members in the club's hsistory. The past few many years of incompetence is mostly down to the Bartomeu-Rosell "axis". I would not be...

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    That's the only sensible thing to do. In particular as we have won the CdR 4 times in a row. I would only use the strongest squad or something close to it in the two semifinals should we reach that stage of the tournament. Or if we faced RM. We have a sufficiently big enough squad to do more...

    Jean-Clair Todibo

    Of course they are different cases but I am looking at the full picture emerging and it is not a too pretty one if you ask me. I have already written several long posts about what I think of Rabiot and his likely arrival. Coutinho has played a total of 215 minutes as a midfielder in the past...

    Basketball/NBA

    Lakers.:lol: Losing against THIS Knicks at the Staples Center, even without Lebron, Kuzma and Rondo, is a disgrace. Ever since Lebron's injury the record has been 1-4. Brandon Ingram and Lonzo Ball inconsistent (as expected) and frustrating despite showing bright moments occasionally...

    Jean-Clair Todibo

    I for once would have nothing against Abidal and the board doing a bit of low-risk gambling by signing Todibo for free this upcoming summer although I consider it as a strange option at first glance. My main problem is that I could very well see the board settling for that which would be...

    Munir El Haddadi

    No hate here as that is a very strong word. I don't hate any football players, managers, clubs, national teams etc. At most disliking the fact that Munir is taking a place in the squad that should not be his in the first place. I disagree completely. Being better than player x or y at the age...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Worse than those 3 too. Of course it is. There is no truth to this rumor, like that of most rumors. However my post was just caused by frustration. Maripán just became a poor victim of mine. I can't imagine Kane ever playing for us let alone abroad. Nor would he be worth the money that Levy...

    Bernardo Silva

    Well, no harm done. I have nothing to "counter" your post with as we agree. However I will keep repeating myself as I did 1.5 years ago when the first strong rumors linking Coutinho to us appeared (spring 2017). Namely that Coutinho would not be the best fit, let alone fo the insane price that...

    Basketball/NBA

    What happened here?:lol: An entire horde of 30+ MJ fanboys (no offense) woke up. Relax, it's all banter and different views. Yes, saying "really good teams" was nonsense. I admit that. I should have used really great and that is also what I wrote in the other post. My point was merely that MJ...

    Sergio Busquets

    Great news. It seems that only injuriy will prevent Busquets from being overplayed by Valverde. While Getafe away is no walkover, it should be more than doable without Sergio. Hopefully this likely absence will NOT mean that Valverde will play him in both legs against Levante in the Copa del Rey.

    Munir El Haddadi

    Have you seen Munir play whenever given the chance this season? A statue could have contributed with the same and said statue would be as quick. Munir is absolute garbage and far from being good enough. Even as a substitute that rarely if ever plays. I prefer, 100 times, to give, what 180-270...

    Frenkie de Jong

    Stop wasting my time with your low IQ nonsense. English is my fourth language yet nobody else here other than you have problems with understanding my posts. You seem to be the exception. Since you like lying time and time again and making up stuff, please show me and everyone else where I have...
