    Spanish FA, FC Barcelona sanctioned for international transfers of minors

    Again, agree with what you say, but let's be optimistic (yet realistic) for the moment, as it is the ban is most likely to be revised (whether abandoned or lightened). Let's not lose focus on the end of the season.

    Spanish FA, FC Barcelona sanctioned for international transfers of minors

    Agreed that the club could have done much better, but the fact remains that after Rosell departed, the board was extremely careful to be as correct and as open as they could (especially knowing that their positions are at stake). And yes, still then they weren't perfect, but what the club needed...

    Spanish FA, FC Barcelona sanctioned for international transfers of minors

    People blaming the board for everything should lighten up. This publication shows that they at least responded to the questions. If you think this board is bad, you'd have to look at other clubs and realise that really shady things happen there. Contrary to popular belief, the CURRENT board (not...

    Spanish FA, FC Barcelona sanctioned for international transfers of minors

    To be fair, I don't really think any comment fully explains what he said. He said that when the club knew that the licenses of the players where withdrawn, they didn't continue to play but still trained with the team And ADDITIONALLY that the club asked for the regulations to change so that in...

    And make the club provide documentation showing how they will handle the schooling and potentially jobs for the parents.

    Spanish FA, FC Barcelona sanctioned for international transfers of minors

    I honestly think that the issue is the rule in the first place. From what I understood, the rule was made so that: 1. European clubs (generally) would not be allowed to poach players under 18 from other clubs (mostly European) that easily 2. European clubs (generally) would not be allowed to...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    Exactly what I meant, but yeah. Same goes with playing Pique (or any other player) to much. (Mascherano much? :p )

    Cesc Fàbregas

    I think he should be rested, will help him much.

    Gerard Piqué

    This is what a well rested Pique can do! Keep it up, Geri!

    Cesc Fàbregas

    The most likely ones to go at the end of the season are Alves, Mascherano and Song. In 2015 probably Adriano and Sanches. Cesc could stay for a season after that.

    1 - Victor Valdes

    Masip should take Oier's place as backup keeper for the rest of the season and be promoted next season. And if Valdes renews for a year, Barca could sell him in January instead of him leaving for free. That way this could be who plays when (till January): Champions League: ter Stegan League...

    Cristian Tello

    Sold with a buy back option is probably what's going to happen.

    Pedro Rodriguez

    What makes Pedro so great, is that he puts the team first. I do think he will start against Espanyol.

    Ivan Rakitić

    I think that in the next 5+ years, Barcelona will buy 0 CMs.

    Oliver Torres

    From what I saw of the match, have to admit that he played really well.

    Jordi Masip

    He should take Oier's place as backup keeper for the rest of the season and be promoted next season. That way, if Valdes decides to stay for 6 months, it could be like this: Champions League: ter Stegan League: Valdes and ter Stegan Cup: Masip

    Ivan Rakitić

    You know who else is a good midfielder? Rafinha!

    Wasn't that Pepe?

    Xavi Hernández

    Seems like he's finally starting to motivate the team. I saw him (and Cesc, when he was being subbed off) trying to encourage the others when they were behind. I don't know if it's because it was against Madrid, but in last year's CL semi finals, he was just dropping his head, which isn't that...
