    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Wasn't he meant to have been signed to replace Keita and used as cover/competition for an overworked Busquets, while also able to play box to box like Keita could. The fact he was a flop meant Busquets stayed overworked and has paid the price.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    With the exception of wide players it's written in stone that every player Barca sign has to be slow as a turtle.

    Sergio Busquets

    He's kind of been the victim of his own success. Club and country have ran him into the ground. He's played over 650 games for Barca and Spain, most of them 90+ minutes and it's not like Messi walking around the pitch most of the time, he's constantly having to recover the ball and concentrate...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I wouldn't bank on Argentina qualifying. It'll take Messi dragging them there again which he could just about do at 29/30, can't expect him to be producing one man masterclasses like Ecuador at 35. It'd be nice if he hung on till 2024 though and finally won a Copa in his retirement game.

    Premier League 2018/19

    Liverpool suffered for 20 years while United won everything and they rotted. Liverpool still haven't won a league title in 30 years.

    Premier League 2018/19

    City will still win most games but Pep's intensity grates after a while and he can't get that extra mile from players. Kompany a big miss in the dressing room. He's been the cornerstone of all their success since the takeover.

    Manchester United

    A warning for Barcelona.

    Antoine Griezmann

    Loan Coutinho just to spend another 100 mill on a player who doesn't fit. This club is broken. Man United will be us post Messi.

    Antoine Griezmann

    So is it Dybala at Argentina all over again? A world class player fucked off for schlubs because Messi says so.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    If Messi chose Spain he'd feasibly have the international goal record, would have won every tournament, dominated a Euros/World Cup that Spain won (and they might have won even more than they did and in more style than they did). It wouldn't even be a debate with Ronaldo. Not to say he should...

    Sergio Busquets

    Busquets and Pique are done. Barca legends who are starting to ruin their legacy. Iniesta left of his own accord while he was still performing. Valverde hasn't got the bottle to move these on (Rakitic and Suarez also need moving on) and they don't seem willing to make the decision themselves...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    The team is that slow, you can't discard Dembele. Especially with Alba missing down the left.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    He needs to be in the flow of playing regular competitive games. It's where he tends to struggle in summer tournaments. He's lost his flow when they start, plus the effects of a long season.

    Luis Suárez

    I'd sell him tomorrow. His CL away record is embarrassing for a Barca striker. The only time he looks like an actual footballer is with Messi setting them up for him. Flashes of tehnique here and there but honestly you could play R9 up front even now and he'd offer as much.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    You need the CL these days. If Man City won CL and Portugal Euros Bernardo Silva would probably win it or De Bruyne if Belgium, Sterling/England. If PSG won CL and France Euros then Mbappe.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I can't see Messi winning another one, this year was his big chance (journalists likely to go to VVD, especially with Messi not playing this season yet). it's become a CL award and Barca don't look like winning it for a while. Ronaldo getting his 6th will depend on whether he wins a CL with Juve,

    Luis Suárez

    Valfraude in, all is forgiven.

    Luis Suárez

    It's the fact we can't afford one because Suarez has no transfer value. Itll cost Neymar money to sign a top one. Just play Griez there.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    He's not going to be right all season. He's had no pre-season, his calf isn't right and he'll need a long rest and then hope it doesn't keep going. Fucked himself for that shitty Copa America and for no benefit. Should have stuck with international retirement. A shame because this was his last...
