Deulofeu>Alexis. needs first team chances.

He's great for his age and obviously has a better mentality than Hachim Mastour (and is being supported by the better youth team). However it's far too early to tell what he will be like as a professional, or even if he will be at Barca for that matter. I like the Kubo kid better though.

Or.........slowly begin to integrate Deulo next season and actually have a deadly goalthreat in our ranks. He's young but he's amazing and wouldn't be a waste of money if he fails (which is unlikely). Plus he wouldn't have the pressures of being a regular starter because he can rotate with...

wow a huge wave of hate coming towards alexis from everyone (including me). I wonder what the team/coaches will be saying to him right now.

Makes sense. Who wouldn't be pissed at Alexis.

Looked agitated by the ref and the game in general. Usually a calm, controlled player but everyone has games where they get frustrated, it's only natural.

actually being a goalthreat combines both of those necessities. Being able to get into goalscoring opportunities, and having the nerve to finish them off. Can't really have one without the other. Seriously though this game is an eye opener to those who think that him missing easy chances doesn't...

Yea song was good, but there is something about Busquets that just makes us tick much more. He'll play second leg without a doubt.

Can't believe he's going to Bayern :(. lots of their players and even fans are extremely arrogant and egotistical. How will he manage a team with ROBBEN. I was really hoping for Milan. City and United would be a better option than Bayern but at least he was smart enough to stay away from...

Loved him as a player last season. Still has a really high potential, although the situation at Bilbao has caused his form to degrade a lot. He could be stunted unless he moves (hopefully he doesn't have to) or unless Bielsa leaves. Plays like a more physical/less technical version of Iniesta. I...

I think he is underrated for his big game performances. Granted, he does it mainly for the NT. He assisted the winner in the WC final and the winner in the Euro 2012 final. It's only a matter of time before he translates his big game form to club football as well. We'll see during the knockout...

Haha my apologies, i misunderstood you. I agree that Cesc wouldn't be a beast on the wing. he can roam and like float around with iniesta but to set him as a winger would be limiting him. Plus he isn't as agile or quick as a winger and often would play a bit too deep. Cesc is fine where he is...

Well Pirlo was better than Alonso but you can't expect the list to be perfect. The only ones they got wrong were Pique, Alonso, Alves, and Marcelo. There was somewhat of a La Liga bias, i'm not going to lie there. But it's not as if all of the inclusions were horrible because most were correct.

I was born in Pamplona so my dad introduced me to Bilbao and it was a boyhood favorite of mine. Although as i started watching football more i started to prefer Barca (I couldn't help it lol). But i do follow Bilbao weekly and last year i got really excited for them since they burst into life...

Maybe so, but that goal was great. The touch was perfect and the finish even curved outward just out of reach for Caballero (who has been an amazing GK this season). Plus the run he made was timed extremely well.

Since most, if not all of us are regular followers of La Liga i thought it would be interesting to see which clubs are favored (aside from Barcelona of course). I'd put more poll options if i could but there is only room for 15 so i'll pick the most popular ones. Forgot to post the poll on the...

Great to see him get fitness but if a fit Bartra can't get playing time, i doubt Muniesa can especially if he is coming off a long term injury (you know how careful barcelona is with the players). This season i bet he'll mainly get playing time in some cup ties if the first leg is taken care of...

doubt that it's necessary. He's a technical type of player and could fool players like yaya with some quick passes or his usual tricks. Also he's worked hard to gain a lot of fitness and athleticism. Not to mention the fact that he has insanely strong leg muscles, even for a footballer.
