    Ibrahim Diarra

    Apparently, his signing is part of 2024-2025 budget. 1.7M according to the athletic.

    Jürgen Klopp

    He has an "out" option for German NT. He is eyeing this job after the WC

    Jamal Musiala

    Read a rumour he is close to renew with Bayern for 25M per season. Good for all parties involved tbh

    Virgil van Dijk

    Absoltuely. Could be like T.Silva to Chelsea type of situation, he will be even a couple of years younger than the Brazilian when he moved to London.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    This has been the case for 4 years now, and we have players like Araujo, Christensen, Pedri, Frenkie , Stegen, Balde, Iñigo , Fati, Olmo, and maybe even Torres, who can all be described as injury prone players. Never mind players like Bernal and Gavi suffering from a career threatening...

    We lose a lot of quality if you rest any of those.

    Messi? Laporta has confirmed it after Messi left

    Barca squad/XI 2024/25

    The biggest question with Frenkie is fit with Pedri. He is hands down the 2nd best player among the potential candidates of the double pivot, after Pedri, but how both fit with each other is a big question. Frenkie is a ball hog, and plays a bit too vertical, and both him and Pedri rarely got...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    How soon though? Only Messi we know ends next summer, which is significant I guess but no one knows if amigos are still getting paid and if yes what is the terms of it. Lenglet is going to get paid until 2027, Umtiti until 2026, Frenkie deferred salary until 2026, Stegen until 2028, And...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Having guys like Pena, Martin, Torres as main subs who has to play serious minutes. With players like Dom or Eric Garcia being really close from playing time considering injury history of Christensen & Araujo and the fact that Inigo might be leaving. I could add Fort to the list too as I hope he...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    This seems more of a wishful thinking tbh. Also, the question isn't if we can get a big name no 9, but on what expense? We will probably have to sell and not sign any other players, like we did last summer to get Olmo. At the end, Lewa contract was more or less a poisonous pill, he has so far...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    This has essentially never happened in recent memory, Halland joined after Aguero was out, Kane was signed after Ldwa was out, Mbappe joined after a year of Bellingham leaving. We also don't have the funds to have Lewa and his replacement at the same time, Lewa remains the player who impacts...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    I do like Marmoush, he is good player, and on top of that he was from an area that was just minutes away from where I am, and I even knew some folks he used to play amatuer ball with him. He had a very steady arch of improvement, from being at Wolfsburg II, loans in Bundesliga 2 and Stuttgart ...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    FIFA has been thinking about it for long, but that one is actually difficult. Because actual playing time is around 55 minutes per game. Footballers right now can't play 90 minutes effective playing time, and fans would hate it if the game is lasting beyond 3 hours for the sake of it. So to...

    24 - Eric García

    Flick system protects the CDM player and allow them to just keep it simple. Casado, Eric and even Bernal before them. None of them were asked to do too much, which made them able to do the job well. Groetzka at Bayern too, and he was awful after him. This is unlike Xavi, who asks too much...

    Iñaki Peña (loaned to Elche)

    Kochen was injured before Ter Stegen, Astralaga isn't showing anything better than Pena when he was in the B team.

    Not a bad performance so far in 2nd half

    Marmosh is exploding this year. Great start to his season.
