    Philippe Coutinho

    The strength and endurance workouts he did in his 1 year at Bayern instilled an alpha mentality in him. He was like a scared puppy during his previous stint with Barca. Now he is like a big alpha dog. Woof Woof.

    Lebron is a top 2-5 player all time for me and it is amazing how he continues to play at a top level at this age with all the wear and tear on his body. But ultimately, his legacy will be one of picking and choosing his teams. Teamed up with Bosh and Wade in an unprecedented move. Went back to...

    Ivan Rakitić

    Just too slow to pick up Goretzka for the goal.

    Luis Suárez

    This guy better not fail his medical with Atletico

    Nelson Semedo

    Disappointing tenure at Barca. Benfica fans raved about his offense. He got here. Looked good because he had speed, which is the most valuable physical trait for a fullback. Good dribbler too. Would get pressed sometimes , and had the dribbling ability to get by the defender. Didn't agree...

    Generally, most NBA champions have a former/current MVP on the roster. Lakers have Lebron. The other 3 teams don't have any past MVP winner. In like the last 40 years only 5 teams have won without an MVP on the team- 2019 Raptors, 2004 Pistons, 1989 and 1990 Pistons, and 1981 Celtics (though...

    Barca pre-season 2020

    Need quality fullbacks too. Guys that can defend, join the attack, and also link with the midfield.

    Sergio Busquets

    Way past it. Can't run at all. Take him behind the woodshed and put him out of his misery.

    Kawhi should have stayed in Toronto. Good chance to repeat. Kawhi and Uncle Dennis probably thought they were so clever by making the Lakers wait while engineering a trade for a 2nd star to the Clippers.

    If Raptors win game 7, I think they'll be easy pickings for the Heat. Nick Nurse has pretty much been using a 7 man rotation all playoffs and sooner or later exhaustion has to get to them.

    Neymar Jr.

    Wonder how things would have gone under Valverde had we kept Neymar in 2017, and managed to add a world class midfielder. Could have won a CL for sure, especially in 2019.

    Kawhi screwed the lakers by making them wait for him while a lot of decent free agents got plucked off the market. Danny Green should not be the 3rd best player on paper coming into the season for a title contender.

    Giannis isn't nearly as skilled as you think he is. He is extremely athletic and physically gifted, but he has no post game, midrange, or much of a jump shot. His ball handling is good for his size, but nothing special. He needs a really good #2 option like a beal, kyrie, booker, curry, dame...

    Can't see Giannis accepting the supermax deal that he is eligible for this offseason, unless he just really really like the city if Milwaukee. Either the Bucks trade him to get a head start on an impending rebuild, or they make a coach change/ trade some players and picks and go for it in...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I don't see anything to suggest that Messi is a dictator and runs the club. The only current athlete in a team sport that you could call a dictator would be Lebron James post Miami Heat.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    But why sign Griezmann when Messi is still here? He doesn't really complement the forward line of this team. He can't play as a winger nor as a real striker. The only minor criticism I have of Messi is probably his support for Luis Suarez. Anyone watching this team knew that Suarez had to be...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    It's still better to be upfront about what exactly is the reason for wanting him to leave. And he did that in this interview by saying the president is incompetent and has no idea what he is doing on the sporting side. Generally, I believe players and coaches shouldn't be too quick to criticize...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Tremendous interview by Messi. Very brave of him to finally call out the President and the board for having no project and just blindly throwing money. A true leader. The likes of Xavi, Iniesta, and Puyol never called out the Rosell/Barto board for their corruption and incompetence.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Yes, whatever Barto wants, just do the opposite. Besides, Bartomeu is too stubborn to negotiate. He'd rather give Messi another humongous 1 yr contract and let the next president deal with Messi's departure. He is the biggest cancer on this club and Barca's transfer history since 2015 is...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    It's great that Messi is giving that rat Barto the middle finger by leaving for free and not giving him the easy way out to balance the books. The Rosell/Barto faction wanted to sell Messi way back in 2013 and build around Neymar. I'm enjoying seeing Barto the rat squirming right now.
