    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    Nothing I heard of. Seems like Messi successfully destroyed his public image. Only a rumour that that someone heard he will vote for Laporta

    8 - Pedri

    He didn't sign during Covid, deal was made official in Sept 2019. He joined them 1 year prior, and my understanding they are the one who contacted Barca (Their SD or someone in their board is friend of Planas, Abidal assistant at the time) For a 16 years old kid who is playing in Segunda a 5M...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Nah, he can do better IMO. I think he will be a consideration if Lucho decided to leave NT too.

    Premier League 2020/2021

    I am actually talking about the history of the country. USA had slavery issues, and this word was used badly etc. So they are sensitive toward it. But UK, did they use this "n" word in their history? Or they are just hating it due to the American culture dominance?

    Victor Font

    I think this is part of Font issue. He is half assing his approach trying to please everyone He keep mentioning nostalgic names like Xavi, Crujif, Puyol. Saying we should build like Bayern with ex legends. Then he keeps mentioning new project, 77 years working on it, making changes etc. At the...

    Premier League 2020/2021

    Does the UK have any history with this word? I mean I get the USA ultra sensitive approach with this word, but not aware of the UK having a history with it.

    Ludovit Reis

    :abidal: That said, all those 3-7M guys has at the end landed us a talent like Pedri, whom we would have a hefty sum if he was playing somewhere else. So overall, I am not mad.

    Ronald Koeman

    Zidane was assistant to Ancelotti for couple of years before it. Being better team is also not the issue, it is different thing when you are coaching reserve team than coaching in Asia. Xavi has a lot to learn tbh, and he needs one more step before Barca, otherwise he will be setting himself...

    Luis Suárez

    We have proverb in Egypt saying : Football is goals. Obviously very simplistic and not entirely accurate, but it still means something At the end of the day, no matter what is the tactics, what is the advanced statistics, you need someone who scores or help you score more. When you just force a...

    Victor Font

    This. Laporta campaign is basically avoiding stupid mistakes, rather than project. And I understand people not liking it.But he is doing what he needs to win. But Font campaign is as bad as it gets, when you are underdog, you need to have something special with your campaign. It is up to him...

    24 - Eric García

    He has the potential, but I don't rate him more than a back up CB atm.

    24 - Eric García

    It is about staying mediocre. If we just sign a CB of low quality just because he is free, we are leaving our biggest weakness while trying to save money for another area.

    Victor Font

    And this is based on what? Laporta candidate lost in 2010 badly and his enemy got his historical win, in 2015 he himself got a historical loss. So suddenly, same socios who didn't care decided it is time for nostalgia and no one is able to compete with him? This sound like a lame excuse to me...

    Luis Suárez

    If we make it to top 4 then it is ok he left. We weren't winning Liga with him anyway it would have been difference between 4th and 2nd place? Nah, that is ok. But if we lose top 4 place, then it is regrettable move, because it is will be huge loss that set us back.

    Victor Font

    I was talking about participation in campaign. Yeah, Xavi most likely prefers and wants Font to win, but that is different than campaigning for him.

    Victor Font

    Don't you think that this is more of accurate description of Font's clan? I mean the moment you start blaming voters for not liking your guys, refusing to acknowledge his short comings, I think you are the one refusing to be open minded

    Victor Font

    Well, those are relatively big names tbh. Not sure if they will help him but stranger things happened. One more question, Did Jordi Cruyff support him? Xavi didn't do it and was neutral about it.

    4 - Ronald McDonald Araújo

    There is a lot of over analysis here to remove blame from Araujo. He is the one ,solely, to blame. If this was a player that isn't under 25 no one would have get him an excuse. He is young and made a mistake, hopefully he will learn and we have to move on.

    FC Barcelona Handbol

    Didn't deny it, although I would say it is Northern Africa that has most popularity outside Europe. Also, I don't think it is popular in Italy either.

    Sergiño Dest

    One final thought about Dest passing, he plays with his head up. This is one of the most underrated qualities of players in general. Semedo for example is the polar opposite of it and he looks more to the ball than scanning the pitch, and it is one of the reasons why he is clueless in both ends...
