    Mohamed Salah

    He wants salary raise , didn't get it yet. Contracts ends in 2023 and already seems the owners prefer to let him go than pay him big paycheck in his 30's. Good chance it is his last year at Liverpool

    Xavi Hernández

    Betis would be perfect for him

    Frenkie de Jong

    I think we would have done way worse with Kroos over Rakitic. RM probably would have done worse too if it was the opposite

    Frenkie de Jong

    I read once it is "analytics" thing. Statistically shooting out of the box is one of the worst plays for a team, worse than cross for example and teams/coaches/players are taught to avoid it most of the time. If you are into basketball, it is sort of football's midrange.

    I think it is just clubs banking on players not challenging the buyout clauses in court. They are illegal but since no one complains they will be ok. I actually think that buyout clauses will sooner or later be obligatory in all football world. Player association has already negotiated it with...

    Erling Haaland

    People keep saying that, yet Pep last year or more seem to not look for his profile and publicly denied his interest. Messi in 2020, Kane, CR7 etc all doesn't fit that Halaand description that people think will "complete" them.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi

    The club told Messi we can't "afford" him, I think that clearly implies his salary and he understands that. There is nothing wrong in Messi asking to be paid, it is his right and he earned it, he repaid the club for his investment in him. Only thing I blame Laporta is admitting he was a bit a...

    Diego Maradona

    Literally it isn't, pedophile is age of 11 (13 in other definitions) or under, it is legal in half of the world (and most Europe) to have sex at 16 with adults, including Cuba where it is unrestricted age of consent and Argentina itself (restricted in case if he is a person of power or trust...

    Where did you get that 70kg figure? Can't find it anywhere tbh. He looks fine to me, not a bully type but strong enough Don't think we can get him anyway, so it doesn't matter much

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Tchouameni is elite talent, but he is very passive without the ball offensively and don't position himself to get the ball from his defense. In attacking team like ours, he will still be a box to box rather than defensive midfielder, we can always try him and FDJ as two DM but it won't be...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    -Yes, he is right age. -On why he won't fit here: Because this is my priority too, and Kessi won't stand a chance to do so Kessie plays same role as FDJ but is just a downgrade from him, but in such situation and the way I see it I do see that Busquets is even ahead of FDJ on our untouchable...

    This is exactly why I made the Bojan comparison when I said I worry about his development. After he arrived, Pep wanted Bojan to go back to B team and the whole reaction was the same, he is already playing with 1st team, he is already scoring, he already got called up for NT etc. And now, it...

    6 - Gavi

    The main problem is there is assumption that 1st team minutes is always good for youngsters, which IMO is far from the truth. It should happen in the right time by the right amount and becomes gradual. I simply don't believe that is happening with Gavi who is being rushed into first team, which...

    Iniesta played 54 games with Barca B, Gavi had 3. Iniesta played 6 games in 1st season for 1st team when he was 18 (completed 19 that season) while Gavi already played 7 games at 17 and couple of months. Iniesta dribbling is on another level than Gavi. Midfielders takes longer to establish...

    Honestly, very few though Bojan didn't have strong mentality when he was 17, what he was doing back then was exceptional for his age. I think it is lack of proper development that hurt him the most. I think Gavi worst enemy atm is the state of the team that is forcing him to skip parts of his...

    Honestly, I think he still needs time with Barca B or he will end as the Bojan of midfield
