    10 - Lionel Messi - v5

    Needless to say that this play is the embodiment of his entire Argentina career tragedies.

    Marco Verratti

    Read something about Conte meeting with him during the international break to convince him to join Chelsea. Probably not a legit story but I do wonder if the Italian connection could lure Verratti to the Blues. A midfield with Verratti/Matic/Kante is plausibly the best in the world and, after...

    WC Qualifiers 2018 - South America

    These Argentine players have this deep overwhelming lust for giving away the ball. It's as if they suffer when they have possession.

    WC Qualifiers 2018 - South America

    Argentina are doomed as is, totally incomparable to top sides. Bauza must leave if they are to have any hope.

    WC Qualifiers 2018 - South America

    If Higuain does well against Barca I swear. Scrubs out in all the crucial moments for his NT but with our luck he'll score a brace in the quarterfinals.

    WC Qualifiers 2018 - South America

    That's shocking, easier to score than miss. How do all these players just lose their brains/talent when they play for the NT??

    WC Qualifiers 2018 - South America

    Any buildup that doesn't involve Messi is pretty abysmal.

    The final step in convincing Verratti to leave :lol:

    Samuel Umtiti

    Immense player, very few have ever adapted to Barcelona so seamlessly. On the ball he's probably our best CB already. Pique/Masch are no slouches in possession and can make some great long passes. However Umtiti consistently shows the ability to pass between the lines effectively and start...

    Hector Bellerin

    Lol, changed his tune pretty quickly. Wonder how green the grass must seem over here from the perspective of an Arsenal player :lol:. He's probably gonna accept any offer we throw at him and Barca's management are far too unimaginative to pursue anyone else. I hope the price isn't outrageous...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    I'd take Isco if that was among our only options. I'd take him over Coutinho for sure. He has his flaws but he's a class player on the ball and Barca's system would suit him quite a bit if he adapted to a midfield role. His prowess on the ball and the way Barcelona mostly circulate the ball high...

    Thiago Translantara

    I have no idea what kind of matches you've watched then. If Pogba's performances against us and RM are considered good, then this dude truly has a low bar to reach in terms of expectations for people to be impressed by him. He played like a passenger and did nothing of note in either of the...

    Thiago Translantara

    Thiago coming back is even more absurdly unlikely than Verratti. How could one possibly imagine that Bayern would let their star performer transfer to a CL rival? How can one imagine that Thiago would leave after he's spent the best part of his career at Bayern and will be their main...

    Lucas Digne

    Hasn't featured much recently even though he's the 2nd best transfer we had this season. Not an ideal situation if Alba's not getting any time and Digne is getting even less. Honestly think he'd play well in the back 3 with Umtiti and Pique if we want someone with pace and aerial ability to play...

    Jordi Alba

    These comments are unfortunate. Alba was one of the players who said he was 100% behind Luis Enrique during our horrendous run. Now he seems to be left out and probably deserves more playing time than he's getting at the moment. Even if the 3-4-3 is less accessible for him, he could easily fit...

    Robert Fernandez

    All of his quotes and assertions sound very close-minded and ultra-conservative regarding choices of players/managers. There've been some positive transfers (Umtiti being the pinnacle) but I'm not assured in Robert's ability to take this team in the right direction. In a way, he's just vocalized...

    Jordi Alba

    If Iniesta continues to noticeably struggle and proves a liability against top teams, I think Alba at LM in the 3-4-3 is our short term solution. Our left flank can be overwhelming with the amount of space that Alba can cover up and down the pitch between Umtiti and Neymar. It also gives Neymar...

    Thiago Translantara

    Had an immense game against BMG with over 120 touches, 3 key passes, and a slick assist to Muller's goal. This man is on fire. He's the crucial performer in a team that's potentially the best in Europe and heavy CL contender. I'd say he's having a season that is comparable to Messi/Neymar...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    Maybe Umtiti can charm him into joining a year early during their international duty :umtiti: Fantastic to know that his transfer could already be somewhat in the works. Dortmund don't seem to be that oppositional too and understand his wishes. He'll be expensive but hopefully the clubs have a...

    Neymar Jr. - v5

    Neymar's chances often come after long direct sprints where he goes from deep and then makes a run on a counter or a quick transition. It's at the end of those high intensity plays that he loses composure, whereas Suarez often doesn't have to exert himself nearly as much before he's in a...
