    8 - Pedri

    You guys are idiots, he is 18 and has been brilliant for most of the season, but has a lot to learn, games like this are normal in player development.

    New 2022-2023 Barca kits

    It looks really nice, it doesn't look like a Barca home shirt should imo, though it does look miles better than the 2021/22 kit.

    Champions League

    Excuses for what? Bayern buy players that make their squad better, its not their fault that Dortmund have no ambition and Hamburg and Stuttgart and other big clubs have been run into the ground. Bayern have earned their money by being successful over decades, while City and PSG were given...

    Champions League

    Not the op but for me, Bayern are a great club who deserve their success, they have earned it and I respect that. I don't care if they get to a 7th Champions League, good for them, they have never been a problem for Barca off the pitch. PSG on the other hand have been a problem for Barca and...

    Erling Haaland

    I haven't blamed him for anything, just stating a fact that Dortmund are a worse team now than when he joined and they are, the point being that Dortmunds main problem is conceding loads of goals very easily and we have the same problem. Its not embarrassing to state my opinion, we didn't need...

    Erling Haaland

    He is a great player but the hype around him is getting ridiculous, Dortmund haven't improved since he went there, if anything they have gotten worse. He looks fantastic in a counter attacking team but I'm not sure if he would be as impressive for a team like City or even Barca. I would take...

    Andrea Pirlo

    It's his first job, he could become a great coach but how can anyone expect him to be one immediately. I'm sure Juve knew it would take a few years for him to learn his trade and they have plenty of titles domestically so they can afford to be patient. They have to play the long game if the...

    Bundesliga

    Bayern have been smashing teams from all over Europe for a while now, not just in Germany. 8 past Barca and 7 past Spurs in London, and put 7 past Chelsea in the rd of 16 just last year, in total they scored 45 goals in 11 Champions League games, that's 4 goals a game in the European Cup and...

    Memphis Depay

    Kluivart struggled at Milan and Pique wasn't great at Man Utd, those 2 off the top of my head but it is not common.

    Memphis Depay

    Depay is a really good player, underrated after his time in England which wasn't that bad. I think he can be a great addition to the squad but not as a starter, it would be underwhelming if he was our number 9 but as somebody who could play a support role then he would be fantastic.

    Champions League

    I have always wondered why Germany doesn't have bigger domestic tv contracts, it is the largest economy in Europe and the largest population outside of Russia and it is mad about football. Why does the UK, a smaller country with a smaller economy take in 3 times the domestic revenue from...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I agree that we are not far off competing again, it is exciting to see a new team coming together in front of our eyes. De Jong, Fati, Araujo, Ilaix & Pedri will all be very important in the long term but Messi will still be at the top for another 2 or 3 seasons. Not sure Bayern will be on the...

    Champions League

    If they go 1 up, then it will be a tie but any goals from there on will be worth more for Atletico because of the away goals rule, so if Atletico score a second Chelsea need 3.

    Champions League

    Atletico could still go through, if they score first they should have the advantage.

    David Alaba

    He would be a great addition but 23m a year is too high, 15 or so and it would be fantastic business.

    Ronald Koeman

    The team has improved quite a lot from the start of the season so that is a good sign, and I am quite optimistic for the future but I do think there is a limit to what the team can achieve with Koeman especially as the other top clubs all have superior coaches. But the team is not as far away...

    CL | Round of 16: PSG - FC Barcelona (5-2 agg)

    Penalty definitely should have been retaken, shit officiating the entire game.

    CL | Round of 16: PSG - FC Barcelona (5-2 agg)

    Really frustrating but encouraging at the same time, if only we played with such pace and confidence in the first game.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    What are you basing that on? He seems like a normal man to me, and I have never heard a bad word from anyone who knows him. As for Aquero, if Messi had the choice of Haaland or Aguero he would take Haaland in a heartbeat. If Barca can't afford Haaland as many on here say, what other options...

    Erling Haaland

    There might be better teams but there are no better clubs to go to, besides with Haaland in the team Barca instantly become much better. Barca are not in bad a shape as made out, I think we are only about 3 or 4 players away from fighting for the Champions League again and Haaland could be the...
