Barça Femení

Enjoy it while your can.

I fear Barca dominance may come to an end due, once again, to foreign owned financial doping from the English League. This time in the shape of Michelle Kang's London City Lionesses.

Let's see if the women will reject more money to stay loyal to the club, as many of their male counterparts have done.

Not really fair to compare them to the men, who are in a completely different stratosphere financially
 
Very remarkable final, matching the two heavyweights in women's football, coaches and in Caro's hometown. Pajor, legit BdO candidate plus Salma, wow

Alexia's swan song before potentially joining Kang's kabul of football clubs in London. Amazing tale of two halves, very competitive match - 2nd half in particular Pere's adjustments determined the outcome and outcoached Jona. Cata Coll with a monster match and loved Pajor emotional post-match comments

Clara Serrajordi, remember her name - this era's elite pivot
 
Lyonnes are basically the Real Madrid of Women's football in Europe, with 8 WCL titles in 8 seasons.

Feels great to half their total CL titles in 5 seasons. Not sure how long it will last but we are currently in Femeni's golden era.
 
Kang Kabul strikes again

She’s earned the right to go for the bag, Spain/RFEF have treated the women’s game terribly - she’ll get more exposure & pay in England. Good for sport, bad for Barça
 
It's not just about money, she wants to leave at the top (I respect that since a lot of legendary players usually overstay at their clubs) and a new challenge which is understandable.

But I think the biggest reason players are leaving Barca is they want to play in a more competitive league. It's fun to win but at some point you also get tired of winning most league games 5-0 and only play a handful of games in CL where you are really challenged. And this will become an even bigger problem in future if something won't change in Spanish football. But given the decline of La Liga there is even less hope for women's football. I doubt in 8-10 years we'll have players like Alexia or Aitana who will stay at the club for a decade. It's qute likely that players like Vicky and Clara will leave in their mid-twenties when they'll just reach their prime years and that will be even more painful than Alexia leaving now.

Same thing has been happening to our handball team over the last 10+ years. Top players or talents still want to join Barca but they leave after 3-4 years and go play in a more competitive league in Germany, France, Hungary or Poland.
