    3 - Alejandro Balde

    Cucurella came with no hype for whatever reason, and then over achieved in every step while proving doubters wrong. Balde is the opposite, overhyped kid with all the tools who have been underwhelming considering how the club and fans rated him. Maybe this will be his breakout year, but I...

    Gerard Piqué

    Plenty of men will agree with you, but never been a fan of Irina tbh. Looks like a doll tbh

    Sergio Reguilon

    This rumours popped couple of days ago, and later it was said we discarded him as an option. Honestly I would take him on loan. Can be backup for Alba, then we can buy a starter next summer, return Reguilon to Spurs and bench Alba

    That is true... for almost every CB pairing out there.

    23 - Jules Kounde

    We went with no back up LB that season because the MIGHTY Abidal had 18 years old Miranda as ideal candidate. Even when coach tried desperately to get a back up LB. At 22, Miranda is just a decent back up LB for Betis

    23 - Jules Kounde

    It will be basically same formation we used against RM. Araujo as a false RB. You count him as RB it is 433, you count him as CB and it is 343

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Buyout clause is 5.5M from what I read. zCould be a stop gap that is younger than Alonso. No idea if he is any good though.

    Frenkie de Jong

    Non of the 3 you mentioned were starting in the first CL final Laporta's Barca won. Xavi didn't play a single knock out game, Iniesta started only QF/SF due to injury, Messi started in Chelsea before injury. He is also the only president in the club history to date to win all CL competition in...

    Frenkie de Jong

    Then they report that he will be paid it next year, so it isn't pay cut but deferred salary. Basically folks want the club to release the exact contracts and payment (despite it's privacy being protected by the law) of each player so they can believe it.

    Frenkie de Jong

    Maybe because official statements are more accurate than reports?

    Frenkie de Jong

    Frenkie will get his money elsewhere and he is offered that. Club official stances remain that all captains didn't just defer money but actually took a salary cut. Even Messi was getting less from us than he did from PSG.

    Yan Couto

    What about Arnau Marinez then? Or is he joining another Catalan side?:boss:

    Frenkie de Jong

    I think Frenkie as CB is like Dembele situation in January. We are just bullying him to leave, once the window is over I think he will get his fair chance. Busi-Frenkie-Pedri trio ain't elite combo, but Idon't know if we have better one atm. At the end I don't believe we actually have an...

    Óscar Mingueza

    Well,sadly it is discount time in Spain. All Liga clubs are barely able to spend and I doubt he had interested clubs abroad

    Virgil van Dijk

    The argument is that he will go down as an all time great defender. Going down as an all time great depends a lot on perspective and hype and both are highly influenced by trophies. VVD doesn't have enough of that atm. He has recency bias on his side but when that end it is different. Him...

    Xavi is the DiCaprio of coaches :worthy:

    23 - Jules Kounde

    Yeah, someone made it and many told him to send it to Umtiti himself on social media (don't remember if it was twitter or instagram) and Umtiti shared it. Maybe he looked at the forum at that time, but one of us actually sent it to him.

    23 - Jules Kounde

    You will be surprised btw. I remember a survey in NBA, and many GM said they had trade ideas from the internet. Owner of my NBA team (Dallas) had actually contact with someone who ran the most popular forum for the team ( and it was still a small one, the team isn't that popular anyway) and...

    Joan Laporta

    I have to say I enjoyed this interview Loved Laporta talk about he knows how to handle Xavi and how Xavi can handle him. Was always a Laporta thing, he put faith in those who works under him (and when he doesn't, it isn't fixable tbf) and he let them do their thing, and weights in when there is...
