    Sergio Busquets

    When was the last time a midfielder had his teammates "run for him" in a successful way in CL ? I would say Pirlo in 2015 was the last one, well probably the only one in recent memory too. And even then, he had a system with 4 midfielders including Marchisio, Vidal & Pogba. There is no such...

    Fabián Ruiz

    He is a bit overrated tbh. Was a huge talent back in the day but progress stalled in Italy. Still good, but don't see him being a special player

    Joan Laporta

    Laporta has only depreciated 4 contracts, thus inflating the losses. The issue is, those money was going to be on the books sooner or later. So we could have been generating losses for another 3 years with those contracts. And what I read was different, Reverter was the one who wanted it.

    FC Barcelona Finances

    The report after Ornestien article said Bartomeu have made those 4 players to take 18M paycut for one season while their contracts as a whole increased 311M (with around 8 added years to their contracts iirc) As for illegal, they said it has involved a criminal act. As those contracts...

    Nico Gonzalez

    Well, a week ago you were saying we should groom Busquets replacement from inside and Nico was the only candidate. :lol: I think most like the deal, but Valancia being a mess is a concern

    Joan Laporta

    In addition, Liga rules count losses for up to 5 years. That mean the 400M+ losses of 2021 will be there in 2026 summer hunting us, and we were doing losses for 2022 too if no leverage. That mean "at best" we were going to have a normal mercato in 2028. And heck, Liga made a role to count B...

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    Bartomeu first year was good tbf. Put his trust in Zubi and let him fo his thing while staying in his lane. But firing a competent SD (albeit not a perfect one) and then sticking his nose in the team was a disaster. After Neymar, he was on a mission to destroy us.

    Sergio Busquets

    Busquets has deferred wage beyond his contract. So, sadly, it makes sense to renew. Basically stretch extra money and give him another year for very few extra total money

    Frenkie de Jong

    Few things. 1-It is already confirmed by many journalists that legally Frenkie signed a new contract with new wage structure. That means that there is no deferred wage from legal standpoint, even if in realityit was. If he retires today he doesn't earn this money, unlike Busquets situation...

    Frenkie de Jong

    The report itself says we talked to him over 3 weeks ago. Seems like we have done internal talk, then now is the time to go full public :lol:

    Nico Gonzalez

    Both Guillamon and Soler contracts expire next summer, not out of question they sell one of those in next 3 weeks.

    Nico Gonzalez

    He has goid agent (Mendes) who is close to both clubs and his dad was a historic player for Deportivo. Having such advisors by his side I think the club will trust his choice

    Frenkie de Jong

    20th October 2020, Bartomeu resigned 7 days later. Motion of no confidence was rolling in full force then and iirc everyone knew Bartomeu was screwed.

    FC Barcelona Finances

    Barcelona is a member owned club, not a private business. If employees collaborated together for their benefit on the expense of the club then it isn't FC Barcelona to blame. The case here seems like that, previous board (an employer of the club) offered insane money for 4 players (also hired...

    Frenkie de Jong

    He can earn us a good sum if he just signs for Chelsea. He will get his money and more, we get our transfer fee, Chelsea gets a good player. Everybody wins. Good world cup won't change much if any. Now he is resisting and insisting on staying in such toxic situation for both him and the club...

    Frenkie de Jong

    Lewandowski improves the squad immensely, he is comming for half what CR7 joined Juve for example while being just 6 months older. And yeah, if we don't sell Frenkie it is still 125M+ net, still not the worst. And generally this is why we are trying to sell Frenkie, he isn't worth the money and...
