    Cesc Fàbregas

    Tito is going to apply the same strategy from our Defence to our Midfield. :tito: Strikers in Midfield and Midfielders in Defence. Attack! Attack! Attack!

    Thiago Alcantara sold to Bayern for 25 million euros

    I can't imagine Thiago staying at any club much longer than 3 years, other than Barca. I think he will go on to play for other clubs in different leagues. He has shown that he has a very high opinion of himself and will go where he feels appreciated and earn a ton of cash in the process. I am...

    Transfers and Rumours - old thread

    SkySports: £25m bid confirmed for Cesc. According to the club, the bid is well below their valuation. No shit Sherlock :detective: WTF's going on? After just losing Thiago, we're seriously not going to out another one of our midfielders. But knowing this man :rosell: :greedy: who knows...

    Transfers and Rumours - old thread

    Koscielny was no better than Bartra was at the same age. It's only in the last season or two, that Koscielny has kicked-on. Still... the standard of defending in the EPL last season left a lot to be desired.

    Gerard Deulofeu

    That awkward moment. I immediately thought of your reaction, when I heard the news. :lol: Don't forget :muniesa: at Stoke. Everton are very good at developing young players, he should fit right in there, especially with a Catalan manager. What did surprise me is they are loaning out one of their...

    Marquinhos

    Is Marquinhos worth the hype? You're right. Tito would rather pick the Experience (Adriano) over Potential (Bartra). Tito is a limited coach and does not know how to improve a player, so he would always go for the "tried and trusted" option, even if it means playing them out of position. He...

    Wayne Rooney

    Don't know if some of you realise this, but Rooney is NOT great in the air. He went through a spell where a scored quite a few headers in a season, but this was largely because of how Man Utd play. They aim a lot of high crosses into the box, we don't. Before that, he hardly ever scored with his...

    Is Messi Too Far Out Of Touch With The Real World?

    I don't think Leo is out of touch. He is still very close with his family and keeps close ties with his hometown Rosario. Where I think he has gone wrong is that he has tried to be too accommodating without taking into account how it would fit around his schedule. I would put the majority of...

    Wayne Rooney

    Not every Barca player has to have Xavi-Iniesta-Messi technique to play for us. However, although I believe Rooney could do a job for us (from the bench), I would not want to see him in the blaugrana. Rooney goes though patches where at times his touch looks great, and at others he couldn't...

    If YOU could change the Rules of Football?

    Retrospective punishment could help, but it wouldn't help a team in that particular game. I'm trying to think of a way that it can be dealt with on the day, without it being abused by unscrupulous individuals. Anyone? In a way the same problem is highlighted when a player gets Red Carded for...

    If YOU could change the Rules of Football?

    re: Bookings for removing jersey My solution would be to not allow the offending player to re-enter the field until after kick-off when there is a stoppage in play. It would mean that the game is not held up, and the team that has just scored would have a disadvantage of temporarily having to...

    Marc Muniesa

    ^He's often on TalkSport giving the inside track on Italian based/bound players/coaches. Has a very strong Italian accent. Funny guy! :D

    Transfers and Rumours - old thread

    I recommended him during the season when it was apparent that his team (QPR) were going to get relegated, and I got shot down by some members because of his Mourinho connection.

    If YOU could change the Rules of Football?

    IIRC, this rule was introduced as a result of a game involving Diego Forlan, when he was at Manchester United. When he signed, there was a lot of anticipation to perform but he got off to a slow start (understatement) and he couldn't hit a cows backside with a banjo for what seemed like forever...

    Marc Muniesa

    Playing for Mark Hughes who was a train wreck at QPR and alongside cloggers like Shawcross and Huth. :amazed: Strange career decision from him. It makes you wonder if he actually knows what he's letting himself in for? :slap:

    If YOU could change the Rules of Football?

    We all love football. If not then: What the hell are you doing here? :D The greatest sport in the world has gone through many changes throughout its history. Most notably: Substitutions, Offsides, Back-passes and the Two-footed tackle have contributed to radical changes since the first rule...
