    Haters gonna hate. Lakers and Celtics should take part in every playoff just for the history alone and the possibility of them playing against each other. Durant won't happen although that would be amazing but we can also do with local boys such as Westbrook or Leonard. No, Lakers are doomed...

    Playoffs without the Lakers are just wrong. Looking forward to the Spurs-Clippers game later tonight if I can stay up this late.

    Luka Modrić

    That's a huge blow for them. The importance of Gollum cannot be underestimated. He is almost as important for them as a prime time Xavi was for us. Of course I am overreacting here but I am trying to make a point. Luckily for RM then they probably have the best midfield out there. We should...

    Daniel Alves

    According to this link both RM and FCB have the same revenues in terms of shirt sponsorship. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/11438520/Biggest-shirt-sponsorship-deals-in-football.html I am not interested in shirt sponsorship deals as they form a tiny percentage of the overall revenues...

    Serie A 2014/2015

    Who told you or anyone else what to watch and what not to watch? I am just stating facts here. For your information then AC Milan is my second team outside of FC Barcelona and my mother is Italian. I appreciate Serie A as well regardless of the current level and will always do that. Not sure...

    Daniel Alves

    I don't believe that. All the data that I have been able to find tell me that we spend more money on wages than any other sports team on the planet. Some of our more mediocre players are earning more than the likes of Carvajal, Varane etc. who would be starters in our team. No, that's not...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Mate, are you even reading what I am writing? I never claimed that Douglas was a "special talent" and I am well aware of the fact that he was mostly a laughing stock in Brazil. Brazilians on the internet still laugh about that transfer. I wrote this myself a few weeks ago in this very thread if...

    Daniel Alves

    I base that on the official numbers in other words the overall wage expenditures of the two teams. Our team has the highest overall salary of ANY sports team on the planet. Take a look at what our players earn and what RM's players earn on average. There is a significant difference. Moreover...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    You are very much on your own when it comes to that description unless you have unrealistic expectations. You did not answer my question. What are the alternatives? Realistically speaking there are only the ones that I mentioned. I know that and I already wrote this myself weeks ago in this...

    CL quarters: Barca - PSG 2-0 (5-1 agg.)

    Brilliant.:lol: Thiago Silva is part of PSG's match squad for Tuesday while Motta has been left out. http://www.mundodeportivo.com/20150419/102874443276/thiago-silva-viaja-a-barcelona.html

    Aston Villa

    Congratulations Bucky. Hopefully you guys will defeat Arsenal and win the cup next month. Aston Villa has gone without silverware for far too long. 19 years to be precise. Here is hoping. Also it's always a pleasure to see Loserpool and "Captain Fantastic" fail once again.

    Serie A 2014/2015

    You know that Serie A is in a bad state when "derby della Madonnina" is completely irrelevant outside of the mutual bragging rights. A sad state. Pippo is too green but the whole setup of Milan is wrong on so many levels. It's very difficult to fix the house when the fundament is rotten. A new...

    Pedro Rodriguez

    I have always been a big fan of Pedro as a player and as a person but he is really past it. He had a bit of a renaissance last season but ever since the 2010-11 season the arrow has only pointed one way and that's down. Sadly. I would still be inclined to keep him onboard if he is willing to...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Darmian is not mediocre at all. Such a claim tells me that you have barely watched him in action. Considering our unique situation, thanks to the moronic board, what are the alternatives exactly? Danilo is gone, Aurier is going nowhere, and Piszczek is 30 years old and won't be cheap. I can...

    Daniel Alves

    I read it too. Laughable if true. Somebody tell this moronic board that there is a significant jumb from an initial position of 5 million euros a year to 9 million euros a year. It's almost 2 times as much. I would not pay more than 7 million euros annually. Take it or leave it Dani. Provided...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    The Italian national football team is not rubbish at all. It's still among the very best national teams out there. A bad World Cup in the "group of death" should not hide that fact. You only have to look 3 summers back where Italy played against Spain in the UEFA Euro 2012 final. There are...

    FC Barcelona B (Barça Atlètic)

    This team is a big mess. I called it months upon months ago. There is no way that they will be able to stay up. I actually believe that a relegation could do Barça B and the whole organization good. A lot of reconstruction is needed and a lot of dead wood should be shipped off or released...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    Always knew that he would be a beast here. I can't stress how good it is to finally have a proper number 9 again. Especially a rare type like Suárez. I love his passion for the game. Typical of players from Uruguay. Must be all of those tasty chivitos that they eat in Uruguay.:suarez:

    Handball

    Well, they are right up there with THW Kiel as our main rivals. Especially since I read that Sjöstrand is out for the season. Veszprem are going to play against PSG tomorrow in the deciding return leg. The first game ended 24-24. Anyway we are favorites for the CL and should win it this year...

    Bale injured. Looks like a calf injury.
