messi walks faster than rodri, so there's that :staringpep:

1. that liverpool side overachieved by quite a bit 2. most of the players in their squad aren't legendary, some of them not even worldclass. they've implemented a system to perfection and it works with the personnel they have. 3. don't think many players chase the trophies. money, family are...

why not? it's not like he hasn't won it all with them. this is his last big paycheck in a top european side. he can then retire or milk more money in the US, china, emirates etc again, people forgetting that it's all about the money for these players. i don't fancy this transfer because it...

only positive would be the fact that there are no fans in the stadium. otherwise rest assured that bilbao will give their all against us, like they always do. win would be a dream. draw or defeat is more likely. any notable absences in their squad? inaki williams usually plays well against us.

he'll get injured in no time and we'll cry again for being stupid and not selling when we should of have. also best attacker with the current squad status isn't saying much. fati and even braithwaite were labeled as such, around here. :lol:

the whole suarez incident exploded because evra was offended by what saurez said and the FA was forced to do something. from what i've seen, the premier league doesn't have the same issues as we see in spain or italy. also, the premier league is a strong brand that has good audience in the US...

yup, precedent was set when suarez called evra 'negrito' and he got fined/suspended. by actual british law, don't think there is a way to punish him - as in penal fine/jail time. thing is shit got out of hand because uefa/fifa don't want to open up a can of worms with this 'racism' bullshit. it...

season is over anyway for him. only objectives should be to recover, stay healthy and get more minutes under his belt. he was beginning to show his age once the matches started coming thick and fast.

Atletico is after Willian Jose, it seems. That's the kind of backup/rotation striker we would have needed in the first place. Not guys like Bumwaite

:lol: we would be terrorising the Europa League all right

what are you on about? busquets and xavi had great passing range. sure xabi alonso preferred those hollywood balls, but otherwise he was limited when compared with those two. true about the can't shoot to save his life, 'a trait' of la masia midfielders.

fair enough messi has been poor this season. but having another player that takes the scoring burden would have been good. also suarez is very good at battling defenders and opening up space. is this something a team as barcelona should do? rely on a single player for all attacking phase...

because he is starting for fc barcelona, that's why. making runs can only get you so far as a striker. it's the same story as with griezmann, all over again. ok, he is a victim of poor squad planning because otherwise he would start under 10 games all season. but he can't do a job even against...

i was talking about nowhere as in really progressing or gaining something for the future. many people rejoiced when we got rid of him as if the shackles of tyranny have been lifted and the usual "suspects" will start performing. it wouldn't have been inconceivable for us to challenge for the...

At least KPB was good on social media. Braithwaite is shite all around.

Putting aside the fact that old people in general tend to be adverse to changes. My guess is that they have seen a couple of hype trains come and go through the FC Barcelona station. They recognise the ability to sniff out goals, no matter the circumstances. Bad decision to ditch him as we're...

It's called social media fucking up with people's brains. Suarez would have been just fine for another season. Salary and the automatic extension thing(if it was real) was the issue.

Suarez is a guaranteed 15 goals a season striker. He scored 14 last season, while also being injured. Best attack in La Liga with Madrid being most sterile in years and Atletico being Atletico(not scoring much anyway). Fati was barely breaking into the first team last season, Dembele was dead...

You still bang on about covering for tired legs. Atletico just needed a goalscorer. Morata or Costa weren't some pressing/running monsters either. Coming back to us - we still let opposition have countless chances, every game. So it's not about just pressing, defense is still shit and attack...

Well, actually it IS about him making a difference right now. Simeone isn't stupid. He knew he needed a proven goalscorer and not the Morata and Costa donkeys he had last year. They've finally recovered after Godin and Juanfran left, defense is now solid. Also added some interesting options in...
