    Lautaro Martinez

    Sad but true. Coutinho at least had his moments in the beginning, so far Griezmann hasn't done much and I'm not sure how he'll be for us in the future. At least not in this current team.

    Mavericky Puig

    I second this, would be a shame to never really test Puig in the first team before he's loaned out.

    Mavericky Puig

    I think our gameplan usually is to dominate the game. In that case we should have the ball 60-70% of the time, not 50 or 55% of the time, as you are portraying it. Therefore I don't think it's entirely stupid to look at how we can improve our qualities with he ball. And if we are talking with...

    Adrien Rabiot

    Rabiot for 0 millions sounds nice, but has never been a reality. Like Ronniecro already has mentioned, Rabbit and his mom wanted a significant signing bonus, a long contract and a quite big salary if I recall correctly. Still doesn't change the fact that you probably wouldn't have done what...

    Did you watch the match?

    Who should be our new manager?

    No because Pep transformed a team that had finished 3rd the season before, didn't play too good football and lost to United in the Semis of CL. We played beautiful football, destroyed Real Madrid 6-2 and and completely dominated the CL against the same team that had beat us the year before...

    Who should be our new manager?

    Why would you diminish the value of a trophy, just because it is dominated by two countries' teams? Brazil and Argentina are by far the two biggest football nations in South America. It's not like the Champions League regularly is won by Slovenian and Dutch teams. EV will never be considered...

    Adrien Rabiot

    Imagine BBZ being in charge of Barca transfers. Good thing Barto and Abidal signed the guy who the romantic barcaforum members liked.

    Who should be our new manager?

    You oversimplify way too much and leave out important facts to make your point seem true. Yes, Gallardo did not lead River to great succes in the league. I completely agree. You conveniently left out a lot of other achievements and trophies however. Gallardo has also won: Copa Sudamericana...

    Mavericky Puig

    I even think Puig would be a much better impact sub. Might not be as experienced, but offers way more in terms of creativity, dangerous passes and dribbling skills. Which is what you need when you try to win a game, not Rakitic.

    Christian Eriksen

    Then CM with offensive skills, or however you want to put it. You can play Eriksen and Messi at the same time, just like Iniesta and Messi played at the same time. Eriksen is not only a AM, he has played CM multiple times for both Tottenham and Denmark, and was one of the players who covered...

    Sergi Roberto

    Hopefully this will be Firpo's chance to integrate into the team. Hopefully.

    Who should be our new manager?

    Tito had been through La Masia, and was Pep's assistant since his days at Barca B. Knew the players, and was very respected by the players and was liked a lot by Messi. An obvious, and imo good choice. Tata was a gamble, that's true. It was a gamble made out of necessity, Tito couldn't continue...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Honestly I'm so desperate I'd settle for most coaches at the moment. They don't have to be tactical masterminds, just not as complacent and conservative as Valverde. Most coaches with better squad handling, winner mentality and more character would improve this team imo.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Then you are very different to Messi. Messi is obviously not the type who'd speak out against a coach publicly, even if he wanted him sacked. It was stupid of him to back Valverde, but I don't think Messi is happy with Valverde at all, he just won't speak out publicly, he way to...

    Junior Firpo

    What a buy.

    CL | Round 4: FC Barcelona - Slavia Prague 0-0

    Why do use "" around boring. Do you think Barca plays entertaining, fluid and good football when Valverde plays a 4-4-2 with Rakitic, Vidal, Busi and whoever in midfield? That trio cost us the CL last year. Or how would you like him to Line up? Without Barcaforum Darlings FDJ, Arthur, Semedo...
