    La Liga Uncle Florentino 2016/2017

    Ronaldo been utter garbage outside of one shot. Celta have had 10 attempts to RM's 4, but they still just won't win.

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    Please be the savior. If next season is as heartbreaking as these past 2 have been, then I think I'll quit on football for a couple of years at least. Valverde is the one to change that and hopefully raise us from the shitshow that Lucho has created. I might end up quitting anyway, depending on...

    La Liga Uncle Florentino 2016/2017

    I really, really hate football these days.

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    I think that it's easy to predict that the most drastic growth/development in Dembele's game will happen when he is at Barcelona. Since that's the case, waiting might not really be that necessary. He's already shown his class in Germany and in the CL, not to mention his recent involvement with...

    Who should be Barça's next coach after Lucho?

    Valverde is the most 'proven' coach we've hired in a long time, so there's that. Not a guarantee of success, but surely less of a 'risk' experience-wise than Lucho, Tata, Tito, and Pep who all had very little real managerial experience before becoming Barca coach. He's even more proven than...

    Sandro Ramirez

    I think he'd be great in the PL. He's physically strong and mobile enough to lead a line on his own and get into great positions. His shot inside/near the area is also fairly accurate and has good power. He'd get more space in England and better service at Everton, he could potentially flourish...

    Naby Keita

    Strongly linked with Liverpool, probably going to end up moving there. I imagine we'll try dropping 120 million euros on him in about 2-3 years then. Jean Michael Seri also strongly linked with Arsenal/PSG, Barca will probably miss out there too. Foolish fixations on a player like Coutinho who...

    Daniel Alves

    Alves can succeed in the right type of system with good support. As long as his defensive duties consist of hard pressing all over the pitch and basically being the 2nd pressing man in most defensive situations, he can fulfill the role very well. Juve played with a back 3 against Monaco for both...

    Daniel Alves

    Sign him, secretly put him in some experimental age-reversal therapy trials, keep him forever.

    Daniel Alves

    An incredible performance from Alves. Literally Messi level performance, and he's been dominating on both sides of the pitch and everywhere in between.

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    They won the CL last year and almost came back in the league post-Benitez when they had Zidane (within 1 point). This year they are the favorites to win the league and CL as of now. They're already in the CL final and within a few games of securing the league title. I'd also be willing to bet...

    Daniel Alves

    Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Alves, and Busquets. These are the 5 irreplaceable players for Barcelona during the golden years. Their abilities and their resulting level of influence will likely never be matched for Barcelona (or at least until football is totally evolved/changed from now). There's a...

    Neymar Jr. - v5

    Dribbling down the wing, he's simply unmatched in football. The best in the world 1v1 on the sidelines. There's criticism to be dished out about other aspects of his play, even today. However he truly is a magician and the best LW in football bar none.

    Josep Maria Bartomeu

    Just imagine the era we could've had if the vital decisions of the past few years were different. We could've had some of RM's best players, or arguably better ones. Better coaches, better systems, a full use of Messi's prime years. It was not even remotely difficult to achieve this; the choices...

    Christian Eriksen

    Eriksen would certainly improve the team, moreso than Coutinho I'd wager. Fantastic player and I think he'd shine even more in a system like ours. A midfield selection with Iniesta, Rakitic, Roberto, and Eriksen next year would be a huge upgrade over Rakitic, Iniesta, Denis, Gomes, etc. I do...

    Would you rather Real win the Liga OR the CL?

    RM winning a liga title wouldn't be that hard to accept. They don't even win it much anyway and it won't end up meaning that much in the end given their underperformance in La Liga over the past number of years. Being the first to repeat the CL would actually mean a lot and 3 CL's in 4 years...

    André Gomes

    It's funny how semi-decent moments seem to stand out so much for Gomes. Unfortunately, I don't think that it's anything that Umtiti or Pique couldn't do if they were in midfield :lol:. I bet even MATS could turn and play an open throughball to Neymar if he was in that position. I think it's a...

    Neymar Jr. - v5

    These comments make it sound as if he played a terrible game. I disagree, I think he was pretty good overall. Some great runs, some great combination plays, and generally very involved and threatening. However, it'd be wrong to dismiss his poor finishing today as 'bad luck'. There is a very...

    Samuel Umtiti

    What Umtiti's been doing is pretty incredible for his first season. If he continues at around this level for some years (hopefully with Barca winning some key trophies) then he'll surely be a club legend. He's one of the most underrated players in football at the moment, mostly because many...
