I put Kovacic in the same class as Verratti and Pogba. Tremendous signing for the scum.

Alik Douglas is injured.

He looked oustanding in the CL games I saw him play last season. Head and shoulders above Bartra.

What other lineup could Lucho have thrown out after only 2 days of rest playing a full 120 minutes in a very intense and emotional game against Sevilla? He had to show some faith in the kids as it was really his only option. Dani looked dead tired and rightfully so. Lucho just didn't have...

Just looked dead tired out there. We just had nobody else to play due to paper-thin squad depth until January.

This kid has conceded 24 goals in 23 games with Barca. Bravo has conceded 19 goals in 37 games. When it looked like the UEFA Super Cup was going to penalties, I absolutely had no faith in him and a sick feeling in my stomach. Bravo at the current time is better and more seasoned, that's all...

I saw both Rafinha and Roberto starting with no Busquets and I immediately hoped for a draw and a chance to win it at the Camp Nou. Sucks that the game had to be played on 2 fucking days rest after the UEFA Super Cup. It's not an excuse but rather an indictment on the players that La Masia is...

The kid blew it. Lucho tried to put him out there as the leader of the defense tonight and he just didn't show up.

It's nearly impossible to win the sextuple at this elite level. It was easy, it would been done more than once at this level. Much props to Pep for being able to accomplish it. I'm not mad about the game but this crop of La Masia graduates (Rafinha, Robert, Bartra) are merely fringe squad...

I have no problem with Lucho prioritizing the UEFA Super Cup over the Super Spanish Cup. He tried to show some faith in Rafinha, Roberto, and Bartra. He gave them a chance to step up and show what they really got without Rakitic/Iniesta and Pique to lean on. This crop of La Masia graduates just...

Appeared way too lightweight to command a midfield in a big game like this. Lucho really had to go with him because of the war of attrition the midfield was put through against Sevilla Tuesday but I have no faith in Rafinha unless he's paired up with either Rakitic or Iniesta. He can't be called...

Bartomeu and his team did prevent Neymar and Suarez from going to Real Madrid. Chose Rakitic over Kroos. Lucho turned out to be a very good manager. Treble won, record profits. Bartomeu played the cards he had very well in the campaign. They moved swiftly for Turan and got the deal done while...

Bartomeu has proven he's capable of getting big deals done. He even said himself, he wants to make Barca the "Apple" of football. He values winning over everything. There's no doubt, he has larceny in his blood though but maybe the club needs that with all the oil money in football nowadays. We...

Laporta just didn't do enough, he gained some ground late in this process but his vision for the club going forward wasn't very clear. Older, conservative socis figured why bring drastic change while the club is winning everything in sight and bringing in profits. I'm not that mad about it to...

Like I already stated in this thread, Bartomeu is a much better politician than I gave him credit for. I was going for Laporta but at least we know Bartomeu is willing to go after big deals and is capable of getting them done.

Oscar is not better than Pedro ffs

Sounds like all the former players are voting for Laporta.

Laporta is coming in with all the momentum. I think he covered the ground he needed to. We'll know soon enough.

Barca legend.

Tonight is his one chance to make Bartomeu have to answer for himself and Rosell. I do agree that Laporta needs to be more clear about his vision for Barcelona going forward.
