    Xavi Hernández

    Mason Greenwood

    That is true. In late 90's early 2000's it was Spain doing so, a decade or less after that it was Germany, few years later it was France and finally it is now England. Spain itself hasn't been doing well tbh, people complain about La Masia but Liga clubs in general hasn't been producing such...

    It is really amazing how this thread went from Eric Garcia to Messi at blink of an eye :lol:

    Thiago Translantara

    tbh I don't know if we are into the market for a midfielder. Nothing is clear right now. For me, I prefer to stand still rather than sign someone 28+ or overrated. Won't mind the Ndombele for Coutinho loan swap idea tbf

    Thiago Translantara

    I would have loved Thiago before we went for Pjanic, but now that we got the later I think we need to get younger.

    Quique Setien

    And Suarez is the blame for that? Suarez actually had that talk when we were linked with Griezmann as his replacement. Griezmann is huge misfit beside Messi, probably the board didn't realize the horrible fit when they signed him.

    Quique Setien

    Because they thought 120M Griezmann would fit greatly there

    Quique Setien

    Well, up to this day no young striker was bought.

    Trincão

    Well, you are under the assumption that we will play 433 exclusively next year, without alternatives? We can't have this discussion without knowing next coach. Difference is that Malcom was almost a one trick pony, he is a player who relied on his speed and limited dribbling movement, along...

    24 - Eric García

    So, basically Puyol is just like any other agent, which is exactly my point. I don't know what Puyol think what is the best situation for him, on one hand with Koulibaly on his way to City, we have an easier route to starting spot as you said. Umtiti done, Pique is 14 years older than him and...

    6 - Carles Alena

    I think Alena can be a Rafinha type of player. Though Rafinha was ahead of him at this stage of their careers

    Trincão

    If we play 442 he will be a good fit

    24 - Eric García

    Puyol has advised him to leave in 1st place, just like he did with Bartra. Puyol hasn't exactly done us any favors in the market. If anything, I would be worried of the fact that he is his agent.

    Ivan Rakitić

    Yeah, no one is paying us to sign him. Our only hope is that he takes a 3-4 year contract somewhere else over a higher salary here in his last season. Sevilla being obvious choice due to family ties and his time there

    Ivan Rakitić

    Apparently he wants to go to Sevilla this summer, hopefully they are interested and we don't do anything stupid like putting a price for him

    Honest Question

    Spain didn't play Pep ball

    Eric Abidal

    Zubi was far from perfect, but he was the one who worked with the coach and had a big plan in mind. Also, you have to wonder if the board was pulling him back? He signed Mascherano, Adriano & Afellay in his 1st year. All were success until injury ended Afellay prime. Cesc & Alexis was brought...

    Quique Setien

    Milan retooled and won the league in 2011, and competed for 2012 title (lost with 4 points margin) and then sold Ibra and T.Silva and replaced them with Balotelli. Their ownership stopped investing in the team afterwards It wasn't until 2017 they paid more than 20M for a player. Same year...

    Quique Setien

    Just because he had a bad season as a coach doesn't mean he was exposed. Lucho set our midfield well in 1st 2 seasons when Messi was RW, once he went to middle again their was never going to be a good midfield for Barca, you sacrifice Rakitic to cover for Messi and end up with just 2...

    Erling Haaland

    Hmmm, have you seen our injury list during Rijkaard last season? In addition to Eto going to ACN? https://www.transfermarkt.com/ronaldinho/leistungsdaten/spieler/3373/plus/0?saison=2007 https://www.transfermarkt.com/deco/leistungsdaten/spieler/8564/plus/0?saison=2007...
