    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Probably not, but with a buyout clause of only 1.5m we'd be stupid not to try. But I honestly think we won't try.

    CL | Round of 16 - 1st Leg: PSG - FC Barcelona 4-0

    I'm neither hater or fanboy. I stay as neutral as I can when it comes to our players. When we signed Gomes I wanted him be great for Barca, as any Barca fan would. We gave him time, more and more games.. now it is apparent he will never be a good fit for us. It's really plain to see. What...

    CL | Round of 16 - 1st Leg: PSG - FC Barcelona 4-0

    It's not haters. On forums you get some exaggerated opinions sometimes... but generally if a player plays well they get praise and if they play poorly the opposite. It's not even like he has stats on his side too, Fabregas was a bad fit for us and still had lots of goals and assists. Gomes has...

    CL | Round of 16 - 1st Leg: PSG - FC Barcelona 4-0

    C'mon... are you serious? Even in a bad system we've had good games this season against weak opponents and he's still showed nothing at all. He's had 29 games.

    CL | Round of 16 - 1st Leg: PSG - FC Barcelona 4-0

    "If" Thiago was in our team it would be for Iniesta.. The more important replacement is the RCM.. The Xavi role. If we had Verratti/Gundogan type player at RCM and Iniesta/Thiago/Coutinho at LCM we would be amazing. But very unlikely to happen with this board.

    The RB situation

    We need a RB who can attack (of course) but keep possession under pressure and pass well. Defending isn't even the main priority for a RB for us. Dani could do it pretty well but when we have control of the midfield and game in general it's not needed as much. Vidal can attack but his passing...

    New 2022-2023 Barca kits

    Nice one man. Ill warn you now, the Camp Nou player version shirts which have name and numbers on ar even more expensive than on the Nike website. I went in late December and my friend got one which was 159 euros!.... maybe they've gone down in price now.. your best to ring them up to find...

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    Absolute no brainer.. but it will be typical of us not to do it.

    Barca 2016 summer signings

    Gomes and Alcacer are horrible. Umtiti... well you must have not watched any Barca games other than last night. Cillesen is a Copa del Rey keeper and we are in the final.. fine as a backup. Levels above Pinto. Digne is fine as a replacement LB, better than Adriano was. And you forgot Denis...

    André Gomes

    The rotations with him has ruined Rakitic too, he looks nervous in most games now. All down to Gomes.

    Samuel Umtiti

    He still is. One major mistake which led to a free kick. Free kicks don't go in that often.... was just bad luck.

    Champions League 2016/17

    Exactly. There's only us and maybe Bayern who can beat Real over two legs. It would take ridiculous amounts of luck for a weaker team to beat them over 180 minutes. I expect Real to make the final. Unless they meet Bayern and it's still 50/50.

    Jorge Sampaoli

    Yeah but Chile and Sevilla play very open... I'm sure he would adapt. It's his motivation, fitness and the players believe in him. That's what he brings. Chile were amazing to watch under him who beat Argentina, Spain, Brazil, England etc. Plus we saw the relationship which is already there...

    André Gomes

    Honestly if he was in Espanyol's squad he wouldn't actually be in the first 11 right now. Maybe seasons before but Espanyol are pretty impressive this season and Gomes is so bad. Lol.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Coutinho has played a deep role a few times for Liverpool this season and what a job he did there. Finding those balls forward cutting through the oppositions midfield, like Verratti did yesterday

    Marco Verratti

    That post didn't make sense.. I said Umtiti, Denis were good signings. Even Jasper and Digne were okay, we could have probably spent less on a CDR keeper and a backup LB though. We spent €91m.. (€123m with the variables.) Veratti wouldn't have cost that... we spent €65 on Paco and Gomes, who...

    Marco Verratti

    How obvious is that..... lol We had over 100m to play with. Now we're out of the CL and La Liga. Verratti, Umtiti and a RB would have been great. And Denis for 3.5m.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    Agree with everything except the part about him not having that kind of power in him anymore. He has been unbelievable this season. He's influenced nearly every game this season without a good coach, tactics or good enough players around him. Imagine we get those 3 things back he would be...

    André Gomes

    It is, but put Gomes in our 2009 or 2011 team and he still wouldn't do much. His game at Valencia was very different to how we play and it was a massive mistake signing him. To think his attributes from Valencia would be good for our Barca team was wrong. One of the worst signings at Barca...

    André Gomes

    The money spent on him and the hype from Mendes and the euros meant we were always going to try and force him into the starting 11. Time and time again we've posted on here saying he's not Barca quality and never will be, he showed nothing in the 28 games before but because we were winning most...
