    Joan Laporta

    It's about how much do we value the essence of Barca and how and why it was created. If we don't value the history, sure, we could be a financial giant and totally sell out to the Saudis. It's how much do you want to erode before we draw a line under it. If it is the 100m as stated it would be...

    Joan Laporta

    In the sense that looking at their club you would 100 percent consider them to be associated with us, likely in the same way as this Qatari club. But the Qataris will pay us for it. Yes, I think with all the rhetoric around the Middle East right now and the dirty money they are investing into...

    Joan Laporta

    Probably isn't near 100m only to use the name as other clubs are already doing that but even getting 20m or so for it is worth. 100m would be a pipe dream.

    Joan Laporta

    We already have clubs ripping off our likeness in other countries no? Barcelona SC? If this is just an extension of that doesn't seem like a huge problem if it's worth the bad publicity.

    6 - Gavi

    Easy there. I get you don't like him but your hate comes off as incredibly bitter and personal. The very post you're quoting is criticism. I think he has a high technical level in that his ball control, touch, skill etc outside of a game setting is very good. Showing that in a game is a...

    Arda Güler

    I agree. There seems to be an archetype of those wingers consistently coming out of Turkey. Really technical guys who score bangers from time to time but can't do it in high level football. With that said, he looks way sharper than Demir did and has quicker feet. Dribbles with conviction...

    İlkay Gündoğan

    He was just one of the best players in a treble winning season. He's not going to magically lose the ability to play football in half a year. Also, the physical pace is a lot slower here than EPL, so could help to preserve him for a few years. Signing one of the best midfielders in England on...

    6 - Gavi

    I don't mean to be negative, but I'm worried he is going to hit a really early ceiling. I would say with Pedri to a large extent we saw big improvement from him across his teenage years but Gavi has kind of been the same level as those first months where he came through. Technically he has got...

    Frenkie de Jong

    I mean, economically, an offer of 80m+ for FDJ is hard to reject, especially due to his wages, with that said, we are letting go of an extremely good player if we sell him. Selling him is tempting (I say that, knowing the club has been trying non stop to do it already) but we just came off a...

    Vitor Roque (loaned to Real Betis)

    That is really interesting honestly. None scored that many. But a key caveat should be mentioned that the only one who really succeeded is Gabriel Jesus and he is precisely known for not being much of a goalscorer. If his numbers are mirroring his and he becomes a similar level goalscorer...

    Vitor Roque (loaned to Real Betis)

    I might have to side with M3ls here. Admittedly, I only watched those two clips above, but by the looks of it, his technique isn't very good and he covers up a lot of bad actions by using his body to recover the situation. He looks worse technically than the other guys he's playing with/against...

    İlkay Gündoğan

    Can be the best in the world but nothing will change till the fear of Europe subsides. We go from mental monsters and lions in Spain to whiny sheep in Europe.

    Xavi Hernández

    It seems very odd to carry out such a long pursuit of a player if they categorically said they aren't leaving their club. No smoke without fire. His agent has probably set some form of demands, even if very high.

    Neymar Jr Transfer Thread

    What would we do without Messigician? We have to be grateful for all these regular updates he gives us, all for no cost. Appreciate him whilst he's still here.

    Uefa Nations League 2022-23

    Well, he has a Nations League under his belt already, most the team has won in a decade.

    Vitor Roque (loaned to Real Betis)

    Probably not technically worse than Lukaku. I would say the two are very similar. Call him Lukaku but for 1 tenth of his cost and he would accept being bench every game.

    Vitor Roque (loaned to Real Betis)

    Spezia in Italy just got relegated, and they have a great striker called Mbala Nzola who they will sell for pennies, no more than a few million. He is great and could easily be worth 30-40 million with exposure at the right club or if he had played in the Prem. We should move for him.

    Simone Inzaghi

    Joke but he got to the final with a broke Inter? You claimed Spaletti making QFs with Napoli was a huge achievement. Don't know why it took the final for you to realise!

    Frenkie de Jong

    Kind of ironic that Frenkie wants to talk about UEFA being greedy and money hungry. After all, it's their organisation, they can do what they like no? If he doesn't like it, go to another club or federation? They should act in their interests. Or so the argument went when it was down to him...
