    Xavi Hernández

    It is the end of a cycle, the golden era is long gone, Messi gone, and to make it worse, we are in the worst financial crisis the club has ever seen. Anybody, Laporta, Font or someone else who presides FC Barcelona in this new era will feel the brunt of it. We are simply not good enough...

    Xavi Hernández

    You think with Messi still here we would have played much better and had much better luck in the CL? I don't see it. One can't dwell on the past too much. Messi was a past chapter. We need to move on and improve and we are not under Xavi, that's the problem.

    Sorry, I just can't agree with that.

    Xavi Hernández

    Sure Laporta, like any president will be held responsible for the performance of the team, ultimately. But practically, what else could have he done and done differently in your opinion? He got the players he thought we need, or Xavi thought we need. We still stink, and in my opinion Xavi shares...

    Xavi Hernández

    Getting rid of Messi was the right decision. Without having done so, we would still be stuck in the past and we would be equally mediocre and still get eliminated today, I bet. Not sacking Koeman earlier and getting Xavi, yeah, easier to blame him but I honestly don't know who else he would...

    Xavi Hernández

    Yeah, I guess ultimately Laporta and everyone else at the club should be held responsible for their outdated, out of touch and blind trust of that Barca-DNA ueber alles garbage and be more practical and pragmatic. It is easier for us to say though, I myself wish we could hire someone who has...

    Xavi Hernández

    Well, he did what he could but I guess he also shares the blame of trusting Xavi and getting him the players he wanted like Ferran Torres. Other than that, not sure how much of a blame you can pin it on Laporta. And this is from me the resident Laporta critic...

    Xavi Hernández

    Atletico is not out yet, right? I thought they were still in the 2nd place. Chances are they will be through.

    Xavi Hernández

    Missing players set us back for sure but the way we played, the way Xavi coached, even with the full squad I suspect the outcome will be that different. It is not even about the result any more, of course we will be happy if we manage to win something, La Liga or the EL. The way we play is...

    CL Round 4: FC Barcelona - Inter 3-3

    The physical and mental toll of being a Barca fan these days is really taxing, it can seriously cause health issues. Take care everybody. Despite the perennial heartbreaks and suffering, :barcaflag: And Xavi out, raus!

    FC Barcelona Finances

    How many more millions will be lost now Laporta and Romeu, now we are out of the CL? Don't think it is just 12m as Romeu reportedly said. 40m more likely.

    CL Round 4: FC Barcelona - Inter 3-3

    I doubt we will change and look different even after the amigos are gone. Something about the culture of this club...

    CL Round 4: FC Barcelona - Inter 3-3

    Disgusted. But we all should know with Xavi, the writing is all over the wall and it is just a matter of time. Getting eliminated is OK, not in this fashion. Something wrong with the DNA of this club, players come and go and we are soft and getting humiliated.

    Kylian Muppet

    If not Liverpool and Madrid (which still has the biggest chance in my opinion, PSG won't say no to money), not many other options: Us: No wage room United: He won't want to go there Bayern: Wouldn't spend that big Juventus and other Italian clubs: Nah Perhaps Chelsea or even Newcastle? In...

    Antoine Griezmann

    Was there any other club in the world that has fumbled as much as we did when it came to buying and selling? We had to be the worst by a huge margin.

    CL Round 4: FC Barcelona - Inter 3-3

    Yeah, the nominative part, if properly enforced, should deter those third party sellers and buyers. The part about not allowing Inter/away fans sitting in home fan areas (only where the ultras are or everywhere else except the away blocks?) is news to me. Only enforced for CL and EL games?

    FC Barcelona tickets: questions and info

    Tickets to the Inter games are available now, I got an e-mail from the club about a half hour ago. Andresito, if you are going to be in Barcelona ahead of the game against Bayern, you can certainly try the ticket office a couple of days or the day before the game, it definitely wouldn't...

    New 2022-2023 Barca kits

    The pictures/mockups on their site show the holes on the numbers, I'd be very surprised if they don't come with those, I will let you know. I still have to wait for the club's official store to stock up and release the CL version for the home jersey, no other places sell them as far as I know.

    Bundesliga

    Stanisic is very good, in my opinion. One of bayern's very few academy players that might have a chance to come through. I like the guy.
