    24 - Thomas Vermaelen

    I don't think some people here really understand how collective defending really works with the knee-jerk name dropping and extreme over-dependence on reputation. I'm not saying Vermaelen is even a good signing because there are a ton of obstacles he has to overcome before I'll ever be *happy*...

    Ivan Rakitić

    For me the difference is that Rakitic is more heavy duty while Modric is the nimble maestro. Rakitic is great with spreading passes, long deliveries, set pieces, and shooting. Modric has better footwork, agility, etc. For this reason, I'd have worried that Rakitic would be more sloppy on the...

    Date: 09/08/2014 Munir "I am very happy with my two goals” “And I’m happy with the team and how the game ended. I’ll keep working hard and if things go well, I’ll be scoring plenty more goals" “From now on, I’ll be fighting to get as far as possible”. “He's a great team-mate. He’s such a...

    24 - Thomas Vermaelen

    Officially official. Don't fuck up Verm. Really thought I'd be more excited about getting our 2nd CB of one transfer window

    Gerard Deulofeu

    Some good, some bad. He was passing more often than not today, but it wasn't really purposeful and he was idle about it sometimes. Also was pressing more and moved back to the defensive areas but wasn't entirely consistent with it. At one moment he was dribbling 6 guys like Messi, at another he...

    Munir El Haddadi

    His finishing and smooth play on the ball were superb today. Iniesta was always looking for his movement and he was constantly active, again with his endless pressing as well. He even had one of those Suarez-esque 'cut in and then cut back out' attempts, though it ended up unsuccessful. That...

    Sergi Roberto

    He had a decent game today. Some of the same old but with positive moments like linking up with Munir/Iniesta, the combination goal, and the long shot. He really enjoyed himself out there, which I don't think he did in a lot of other games.

    Pre-season friendlies 14/15

    I think all preseason games are uploaded since there is no dispute about distribution rights.

    Gerard Piqué

    :lol:! What the hell is wrong with this guy??? Though, I'm not particularly surprised given his history of idiot stunts such as revealing the Cesc transfer and, of course, this:

    Sergio Busquets “I am happy and proud to have been named among the captains. I learned a lot from Puyol and Valdés and want to continue learning from the players that are still here.” “It’s not just about the coin toss” he insisted. “You have to keep an eye on everything, be a good team-mate...

    24 - Thomas Vermaelen

    Some are blowing this out of proportion. We've got the situation under control to the extent that we are allowed to make a gamble transfer. However, I would've preferred that this gamble be in the form of a younger player (somewhere between 22-27) with a cheaper price and less injury problems...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    I'm surprising even myself with this, but same here. It's probably nothing more than a fantasy but I'm impressed with his quality on the ball. Montoya has good one touch play and all but Bellerin's maneuvers against Benfica were brilliant.

    David Luiz

    I didn't deny that he has heart. It's just that he's always either goofing off or getting overcome by emotion. He's never focused and doing his duty the way he should be, instead doing whatever the hell he feels like doing on his own whim. If he's in the box, he's usually just walking around in...

    David Luiz

    He obviously can't be solely responsible but he was, without a shred of doubt, the worst player on there and even moreso the biggest disappointment given his captaincy. If neglecting all of his duties during the match and then engaging sympathies with some tears afterwards is his idea of 'giving...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Look on the bright side. This Vermaelen saga was contained to the time interval in which darthvader was banned. We've been saved around 100 or more irritating spam posts. Of course, we'll be hearing about it when he returns but a couple of weeks of peace is nice.

    Pep Guardiola

    I doubt Schweini was left with anything more than a knock but it's still always a worry. Apparently Pep and Porter actually did shake hands outside the locker rooms after the match. I want to believe that's true and that Pep made up for his mistake, the source is the president of the USA...
