    Alex Song

    Would become? Barcelona is already the shortest team in Europe.

    Alex Song

    Our previous offer was 12 million, to which Arsenal replied they won't be selling Song for anything under 15 million. I guess it's pretty much sealed then.

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    I don't even know what trolling means. Anyhow, if you read your replies to people who claim Ben Arfa or Newcastle isn't as good as you claim, you would perhaps understand why I did what I did. Reasoning seems rather hard with you, so I just happened to look up some statistics and noticed they...

    Hulk

    Laugh at Porto "We are not selling Hulk unless his Release clause (£100 million) is met."

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    In my eyes, it's almost impossible for one player to cause a team to lose a match. It's a team game after all, which I've played and coached all my life. I was just being an ass and knew you would jump into the conclusion that I'm blaming Ben Arfa for their loss (which I still never said). I...

    Neymar - v2

    Neymar is going to struggle in Europe so bad in his first year(s). Then it's up to him if he wants get better and become a world-class player or if he will cry and ruin his career.

    Ok, I got it. I would still go for Garrincha and Litmanen (if you consider him retired) though. :)

    Barca Forum Hall of Fame

    Fair enough. Obviously I just fail to understand the requirements to make it in this Hall of Fame. Like what kind of contributions are we looking for? Why aren't we mentioning the obvious ones? Pele, Maradona, Platini etc. a neverending list of players who are still topics of daily football...

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    As I already stated earlier, the discussion isn't going anywhere so let's just leave it here. The way I chose certain statistics was biased. Statistics aren't biased. You don't exclude some games from statistics. I think Newcastle is a nice team and I look up to them but they aren't the caliber...

    Defender for next season?

    The problem with Puyol is his playing style. It's unbelievably exhausting when he goes 110% in all the time full-physical game. That is the reason he cannot avoid injuries.

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    1.You claim Newcastle losing their unbeaten run was down to HBA coming back into the team, you are WRONG. Newcastle's 11 game unbeaten run ended against Man City (beat ManUtd 2 weeks earlier 1-6), a game Ryan Taylor gave away 2 goals costing Newcastle their unbeaten run. Nope, never said it was...

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    I'm not replying to all of your points due to the fact writing walls of text and arguing does not particularly interest me. Statistics aren't unfair or biased. They are called statistics for a reason. The way I listed statistics and chose only certain stats is biased. But I already told you I...

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    I'm not actually trying to prove my point by using stats. I judge players by watching them, I don't care a bit about statistics. I even said the guy is alright, at least for Newcastle that is. I just wanted to get you back on ground after praising him ten times more than the guy deserves. Worst...

    Lucas Moura

    You don't seem to understand that Andy 35 million = 26 million in 2001 (Zidane transfer year) money. Then because pound's relation to euro has dropped from 1,64 to 1,1 between those years. 26 million pounds now could be viewed as 17 million pounds back then. Technically, if this transfer would...

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    Newcastle was good because Ba was unstoppable in the early season (notice that Ben Arfa was away). When Ba faced problems, Newcastle's run was horrible. Finally when Cisse came, the Magpies started rocking again. I watched roughly half of their games last season and Ben Arfa was by no means the...

    Another highly unrated player is Garrincha. He was so unlucky to play at the same time with Pele. He is probably in the top 5 of all time attackers, at least to me it's clear. Yet he was always just the guy "worse than Pele". Between 1955-1966 when he played for the Brazil national team, the...
