    Barca to re-consider Qatar deal

    Chevrolet is still an American company. I suppose that any exposure is welcome. Sponsoring a club of FCB's stature would be welcome exposure. Of course you have a point that energy companies are different in this sense. I guess that an exception could be made? Or involve other things than just...

    Lliga: Granada CF - FC Barcelona 1-3

    A must win game. As simple as that. Granada are very poor this season and they have important absences. FCB has managed to win 6 out of the last 7 games. The 3 most recent away games have ended with two small wins (0-1 & 1-2) and a defeat (1-0) last season. So historically it has not been a...

    Barca to re-consider Qatar deal

    You should always aim high. Less than that could do it. Why not? Why would Chevron sponsor a European football club? The club is run by a moronic board. FC Barcelona should be much, much better when it comes to marketing. The potential is huge.

    Barca to re-consider Qatar deal

    If Qatar Airways is acceptable then why not go for Saudi Aramco? Royal Dutch Shell, Walmart or Sinopec (the world's largest company by revenue) would be excellent too. They could afford to double Chevron's deal with Man Utd. I would want us to have a Chinese sponsor for marketing purposes...

    La Liga 14/15

    A shame really. http://www.marca.com/2015/02/27/futbol/equipos/villarreal/1425040244.html?a=PR35c595d78d2f1353e1ba3e6dd975a8977&t=1425126411 Does not mean that they will not feature at all. Just that they won't start the game. It makes little sense as there is little chance of them...

    CL: Barca - Man City 1-0 (3-1 agg.)

    I agree. The thing is just that the result is not a fair representation of the gap in terms of class that was present on the day between the two teams. For instance hardly any neutral would have complained had the game ended 1-3 or 1-4. In such a case the tie would be practically over as well...

    Ivan Rakitić

    Rakitic is slowly but steadily turning into a very important player for the team. I feel that the team performs better whenever he plays. That's a very good sign of him doing something right. I still feel that he has more in his locker though. Nevertheless great to have a player that combines...

    24 - Thomas Vermaelen

    :lol: Only a largely moronic board would ever buy a player like Vermaelen. it serves them right. I am hoping that the purchases of Vermaelen and Douglas will serve as a warning on what NOT to do for the upcoming board.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    They live too far away.:messi: Nah, he is still the best penalty taker in the team IMO. Just been really bad this season. If not him then Iniesta.:iniesta::lol:

    CL: Barca - Man City 1-0 (3-1 agg.)

    A fantastic first half performance by the team that was followed up by a less dominating and composed second half performance. A good result nevertheless that could have been better if some of the many wasted chances had been converted into goals. Messi has to improve his penalty kicks. He...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    He should give Ronaldo a call so they can arrange a training session together. When that happens Ronaldo should teach him how to take a penalty kick. Truly an discipline that he has to improve. Otherwise he was phenomenal as usual.

    Daniel Alves

    He is off this summer. I just hope that he can stay professional until the end of the season.

    Gerard Piqué

    I never doubted this man. It's almost criminal to do so. What a buy he has been. Even when he struggled he was still in the elite on his position. That's how good he is or how good central defenders are today. Depends how you look at it.

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    Great game by Suárez. Here is hoping that he can transform such performances to the league and become more consistent in front of goal. Of course it's more difficult to score against the better organized Spanish teams than the headless English teams.

    Jordi Alba

    He must be one of the most disliked players among the opposition fans and neutrals. I even find it difficult to like him. He needs to cut the diving down. It's embarrassing.

    Luis Enrique

    Who said anything about last season being better than the current one which has not even ended? Did you even bother to read what I wrote in my first sentence? Let me quote it for you. I just wrote that at this point in time last year the team had accomplished better results in all 3...

    CL: Barca - Man City 1-0 (3-1 agg.)

    Well, irrespective of the poor result against Málaga, I was never too optimistic about this game. The hype bothered me. Now the defeat against Málaga might serve as a wake-up call. I feel that people are underestimating City. Besides I don't trust Lucho in the big games. If the rival prepares...

    Luis Enrique

    What are you talking about? Of course those are FACTS. If not what are they then? The Copa del Rey seminfinals WERE completed at this point in time last year. Try again. Last year at this point in time the team had won 0-2 away from home in the round of 16 against City. That's a fact too. It'...

    Luis Enrique

    He often appears arrogant to me. Unlike Mourinho his results as a manager do not justify his cockiness at all. He is a nobody on this front. It's fair to say that he has improved and that he is not as confrontational as before Anoeta which is good to see. On this front I prefer Tata.

    CL: Barca - Man City 1-0 (3-1 agg.)

    I have a bad feeling. I hope that I am wrong because I could actually see us winning the CL with some luck. The importance of this game cannot be underestimated.
