With Ferran recovering from appendectomy, potential false 9 setup?

He did say this but also claimed the kid couldn’t be considered a genius like Leo or Maradona - a bit of an odd conclusion to draw considering neither were doing what Lamine is doing at same age

I would only contest he has to prove it to begin with, that hasn’t been accomplished. He has renewed contracts of players already at the club or Masia while also having had high profile last minute failures with targets Now, I believe the FFP handcuff will not be an issue for this window and...

My only concern on transfer window is Deco, will he be ruthlessly efficient & rapid or outmaneuvered by clubs that would otherwise have no chance of doing so when Barça is interested He’s taken too many Ls on the job for a club like ours to continue with the responsibility, so I believe...

I had a holiday job during med school, working fragrances at Macys in Union Square SF - I met Pop, helped him pick out a fragrance as a gift Very down to earth and I was the only person on the floor who recognized him, we talked a bit of hoops and where game was going - very classy. I’ve met a...

May also simply be a negotiating tactic, silly season won’t start for another 7 weeks

Refereeing biases and specific refs with particular axes to grind with several players/teams, it was analogous to officiating in La Liga - I gave up hoops just after starting following Barça, mainly due to how it was no longer sport but entertainment like professional wrestling or the Harlem...

Of course it‘s rigged, decades ago it was obvious

Not among the highest priorities considering Balde, Gerrard & Torrents if not Fort as well RB is key because of need to support Lamine better and relieve the pressure in the attacking end

Now with La Liga title effectively assured, rumours will pick up Priorities, IMHO: 1) LW - Nico Williams, Ademola Lookman 2) FW - Gyökeres, Isak, Šeško, Rashford 3) RB - Andrei Ratiu, Vanderson 4) GK - Joan Garcia Tah looks likely if Araujo leaves but a lot of changes ahead considering income...

When the governing bodies (here we are talking about the capital, La Liga & RFEF) are colluding to game outcomes, it requires external intervention analogous to UN Peacekeepers - the blind leading the blind will not implement anything other than whitewashing the clear corruption Where do you go...

Terry Crews & Thierry Henry have been photo'd together at a lot of events recently, are they preparing to start a Netflix series together? Hopefully he's a consideration to replace the laughing hyena that is Micah on that unwatchable football pundit program with Jamie & Abdo

My favorite current youth player is David Moreno, 12 y.o. with Infantil A - a right footed interior who is a remarkably skilled player. Reminds me a bit of Iniesta but more of an attacker, not a winger - probably a future #10 Usually I wait until they are 15 but even with Lamine, some kids are...

Plenty of time for gloom & doom for those who are prone to it, transfer window is long, full of misinformation and ultimately hasn’t even started There is no doubt, Barça will fortify with players from market and register them
