    Eduardo Camavinga

    Last season, he was more CM/b2b since the DM role was occupied by Nzonzi on loan from AS Roma. But even then, thx to EC's workrate and game IQ, you'd often see Nzonzi go up safe in the knowledge that EC had the empty zones covered. He can play all CM positions left, center and right, excellent...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    yeah exactly! fits the gen.+1 theory where lifelong fandom to club starts at childhood. Very smart opportunistic move by PSG signing Leo since, many of the GOAT's fan newly tuning in to watch his matches will do so with their kids and good chances that many of this new gen will forge emotional...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    Just guessing here but for non-local fandom to grow, I reckon it usually takes +1 gen. It can't grow overnight like magic mushrooms :lol: say Da'a starts watching every game of PSG from Vanuatu cuz he's a big fan of Ibra or Navas... then good chances the kids will develop emotional imprint...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    Not to diss your club or anything but best case scenario, it's gonna take probably more than a decade for PSG to genuinely grow a fanbase that truly supports the club (irrespective of its players). Look at Barca for instance, even if all the signings were absolute bunkers, they wouldn't lose...

    Joan Laporta

    When working food prep in the kitchen of St.Regis, pissing on it usually did the job :chef: except for that one time when I had too much Russo-Baltique #c.u.i

    Memphis Depay

    yeah difficult to imagine a single player accepting a pay cut when the rest of his m8s refuse to do so. If it's a collective thing and all the highly paid players and board members accept it, then it would be an easier sell. At least Pique was open to it and on his own (and maybe took it? I...

    Samuel Umtiti

    Well since he likes doing the chicken dance so much, sweat him out a max on the pitch (if he's on form) + tar and feather him post-game :evil:

    Hakim Ziyech

    phew, no surgery required! but he'll be out for 2 weeks and looks like N'golo will be rested as well. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/chelsea-hakim-ziyech-kante-injury-news-b1902143.html That's a blow for Tuc since these 2've been his best players in pre-season.

    Champions League

    errr no you're not and that's a vanilla/stevia malibu prediction duuuude :mathieu: Given their age and shaky defense, PSG's attack will have to score way above par to grab Big Ears and many pundits already predicting a Bayern vs one of Pool, Manu, City Final. I like the underdogs so...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    nah you misreading it, 4th is due to chill Paris weather. GOAT's just got sheared by Laporta. Still needs time to acclimatize :cold: It is wakawacky to see both in that shirt. Only 1 year apart, these 2 cats won't share the same meow mix bowl but I can see cool friendship evolving.

    How many goals do you think Griezmann will score this season?

    If a dope ass season, I'm thinking 44 overall goal contributions with about 18 goals. Memphis and Fati joint top scorers and all 3 sharing pens

    FC Barcelona Finances

    uhm dunno the details but seems like a sucker deal. Small clubs having to give up 10% of viewing rights for the next 50 y whilst having to comply to yet more rules and stipulations from a new warlord lol Better scenario would've been for Tebas to chilax the rules so that Liga clubs could do...

    Positive Thinking Cules

    This spot could be filled by Cardioman or Yusuf or even Kays (if he gets promoted). For Puig, give him his chance. He performed well so far with the few minutes he got. Griez started some pretty good actions in the last game from deep in the MF. Good vision, connections and accurate passing...

    Joan Laporta

    aight I hear you on the ethics side but humoring this scenario and playing devil's advocate, you get: 1/ It shitty towards the employees yes it is, but look at how injured players like Bouze & Umtiti (& Couti? dunno..) refused transfers and salary reductions, as well as the other vets (except...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    He did mention possibly coming back after his Paris stint in the presser. And he volunteered it as the reporter only asked him if he had a message to the Barca fans. He ended it saying anything is possible. One thing's for sure though, a proper reunion (whether he signs again or not) and mega...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    On paper but still the players need to gel. Just look at how long it took for Chelsea last season. . Thinking the frontline will manage it fairly quickly but you just can't V for granted in CL, with chance playing such a big role. It's gonna be interesting to see how Poch will set them up and...
