Joan Laporta

[serghei]

Laporta didn't save the club from barely existing, that's a stretch. But in a short time he made it elite again. In a VERY SHORT time, and with one arm tied behind his back.

In modern football history, he's as good as it comes, along with Florentino.

If we had Laporta instead of Bartomeu, we would have had more CLs between 2012-2022

That's without a single doubt for me.

He won over Guti as well.

Genial, grande presidente.

Positive variance in small sample size can make wonders.

Florentino since his return to Madrid completely surpased Saul Goodman to the point its not even funny.

Well except in the case of opting for that cringe Bernabeu facade. That thing is criminal.

So here are the net spends in La Liga since Laporta returned in 2021.

We should not even be competing.

Yet we are winning domestic trebles playing the most exciting football in Europe.

And people are still complaining.

Including 2025 summer window to inflate numbers for Madrid and Atletico, while at the same time trying to depict 347M investment alongside hundreds of millions in wages spent as ”should not even be competing”, is so DoN J. and so frackin hilarious.

2 big titles in 3 years mate while fighting tooth and nail to register players. Don't think non Barca fans want to see Laporta Barca with 200m to spend like Madrid, Liverpool, Chelsea or the others.

Don't care if some admit it or not, but Barcelona under a great president is pretty much the only side in the world who could have pulled it off. Spending modest money and being one of the best sides in Europe.

Should have been distant 2nd best to Madrid based on spending and we made them our lap dog last season.
