    Arthur

    Messi was the one who struggled with injuries. He adjusted his game worked his body etc to avoid those injuries and luckily he was successful at that. Arthur could turn it around, many players did albeit still minority. Still he need great work ethic and discipline for that. Until then...

    Premier League 2018/19

    No. It is supposed to correct "clear" mistakes. If the referees in the VAR room found it was wrong decision but close, it should remain. That is how it suppose to work. FIFA actually warned them about that. They are overusing it.

    1 - Marc-Andre ter Ansplant

    Surgery for tendinitis? That is rare and only in advanced cases.

    Erling Haaland

    Would prefer Mendes over him anyday. There are many other great agents too who are very successful to get great deals and don't push themselves on the media. Also, Raiola is a bit limited regarding clubs, It is either Juve/PSG/Manu if you are going to big club, the likes of Napoli/BVB to 2nd...

    Adama Traore

    This. This is his 5th season outside of Barca, he is almost 24 and he is finally able to do well now. People need to realise that not everyone can succeed in big clubs, more importantly fewer can succeed when they start their career with big clubs. I expected him to do well by the age of 24-25...

    Erling Haaland

    45M. 20 for his club, 10 for his dad and 15 for his agent. Wage is around 6M net, in Liga that would be around 10-12M gross. He isn't cheap by any mean. Raiola also play games with clubs, he will negotiate with so many clubs at same time and most clubs would hate being involved in such...

    I would love him here, as assistant.

    How many European Cups/Champions Leagues have Barca thrown away?

    Errors went both ways but they had more, although if ours were called it would have been different games, not trying to take anything from our achievement but I am showing other side of arguments. Half of football fans at least think Chelsea deserved that game. And if there is a thread like that...

    How many European Cups/Champions Leagues have Barca thrown away?

    Not that much. Luck goes both ways, we had many lucky calls in 2009, some "questionable" decisions in our favor in 2006 & 2015 too. At the end this is football, it is a game of moments and at this top level top teams are very close to each other that fine details usually are very decisive.

    Eduardo Camavinga

    I think this was partly because we wanted a good financial offer. I doubt Juve would hesitated if we allowed Raki to leave for almost free. Several other clubs might have been interested too.

    Bundesliga

    I always wondered why no one would invest in the club of the capital. Looked like a smart investment. i hope they won't go for old farted players though.

    Frenkie de Jong: CM or DM?

    Pretty straight forward question, which position do you think he will play long term here. Him being the core of our midfield rebuild make answering that question essential. It is clear we are in need for a new midfielder beside him and Arthur but what type of player? While we all like what we...

    Eduardo Camavinga

    You know, I am really starting to buy the Thiago thing.

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    What we think of Fati and what we expect of him next year will be essential for whatever planning of the next season. If we think he can make a Messi 2005 type of leap and become a starter next year, whether it is on the wing or no9 then we will need to focus our resources on improving defense...

    Antoine Griezmann

    He plays in same position as Messi and we still bought him, not his fault we are clueless team. He is stuck here where he doesn't fit. But at least he gave it his all unlike many players before him, like Ibra/Dembele/Coutinho.

    Your choices for valverde replacement

    I agree with that. Have been saying it for months/years now. But at the same time it won't warrant him staying another year.

    Jordi Alba

    He was our only threat in attack, and his side was stronger on the defensive side, though part of it was Griezmann supporting him. Missed an easy chance, but he had a decent game IMHO

    Frenkie de Jong

    I've explained my stance on EV zillion of time, I won't go in depth again for that. I said for a team that is awfully constructed and overrated like ours, he has done decent job in first 2 years with what he has despite the bad aesthetics of it. He ran his course with 2 season and this year I...

    Frenkie de Jong

    1-Where did I defend EV on this game? Said already in his thread it was a poor game. Said even in this thread that he didn't respond as we wanted. Said in Suarez thread he (Luis) should be sacrificed and benched. 2-I've been criticizing Busquets in EV first year, and people were hating me...
