Don Juan Laporta Estruch

Basta yaaaaaaa, Cabron ! y Bona nit 🥂
So much doom and gloom.

It's almost like people don't realise we have Klopp on steroids at the wheel.

I walk around my town with a full on erection sticking out of my trousers. When people ask me what I'm doing I look at them quizzically and say " Don't you know Don Hansi is the manager of our beautiful club? "

They reply " Well that's not a reason to get so excited is it?". I tell them " Well that's true, but when you realise also that DON JUAN LAPORTA is the PRESI of our beautiful club ....... "

" Ah, now I understand " They reply, as they walk away with a semi. :laporta2:

It's Barca, we never had depth in defense, we don't value it. The last few years we had the most depth ever, remember the golden years when we also had 3 CB, the Song shit CB idea...

Where does this 3 CBs come from?

Cubarsi, Christensen, Araujo, Eric, Kounde, Paulo Martini.

There is the option of playing Casado at RB and Kounde CB if we have a crisis.

Plan A: few months ago: Sell Araujo - tens of millions
Plan B: End of the season: Sell Martin - get 5-10
Plan C: This summer: Sell Christensen for anything
Plan D(eco): week from start of the season: Lose best defender for free. :clown:

At least we're distracted for a while from Ter Stegen, stadium, 1:1, Gavi-Fermin stories. :popcom:

Because we have 3 pure CBs. Others can fill in but in Flick's eyes they are primarily playing in other positions. I think Martin could join them this season if we judge by preseason. Jofre will be the reserve LB and Martin a backup CB. Not sure it's a good idea though.

Eric will still fill in as CB as Kounde will likely play most games anyway, just a few less than last season. Eric can't just be sitting on his arse to play 5-10 games all season. If needed he will be 4th CB.

Was our best defender last season. And maybe could have been the same this year aswell.

What I agree with is him being old and not seeing himself able to play 50games next season in the top level. He is within his rights to think that. And with how things were last season, If I were in his place, I would also think I would be playing a lot of games, seeing my teammates' injury history.

What I don't agree is, how can we as a Football club have a clause that let him leave for free? (if the said reason is true)

This is just an unacceptable level of incompetence from our board.

His fitness level also regressed in 2025. He had that run of like 17 games at the end of 2024 where he played almost every single minute. In 2025 he didn't play more than 3 games in a row.

He did very well last season and it probably took a lot of effort from his side to keep that level, now he feels it's not worth it when there's a lot of money offered from Saudi to relax.

"Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see Hansi"

It will be interesting to see how Flick sees Eric and Kounde when they are both playing together. Who will be the RB?

Every transfer where we don't have to pay future salaries is a success for an amateur like Deco.
