Messi isn't willing to play for a minimum wage... If he was, we'd be signing him already instead of spending money on Neves and Zubimendi which would easily go to paying Messi's wages.

Yeah... None of it makes sense. LaLiga is the best league in the world, he says, and we are the dominant victors of it, yet we are not at the level of Juventus, who haven't even won Serie A for like 3 years. He has obviously a mental block when it comes to Europe and I don't think we will do...

He has great athleticism, very fast and quite strong, good explosiveness, but his main strength is outstanding movement. He is similar to Werner/Ferran/Nunez but for a fifth of the price any of those cost. Poor finishing but still a huge goal threat simply by way of top movement and speed...

We should go for Uzuni. I've watched him a lot in his career. Extremely talented.

Funny that. We were told by the Barca press it was another Alemany masterclass.

And, not surprisingly at all, it is firmly the 4th worst of the top5 leagues. Possibly joint worst with Ligue 1. Unfortunately the sport has become a pay-to-win exercise where shady sheikhs and financial doping rules all. The annoying thing about the PL is its gonna leave countries with...

It just doesn't really make sense because why launder money with a high ranking CTA official? It can look so much worse than what you're actually doing should it be revealed. Perhaps Negreira's blackmail was actually to reveal the money laundering of the directors of the club. A thing that...

COPE - The big question in the case is where did the 7.3 million paid to Negreira go, as bank records and his private property does not suggest he received all of it - The judge accepts the theory that, in the absence of the money going to active referees, of which there is no proof, that part...

Celta are actually close to getting relegated despite their underlying numbers having them top half, which is wild. They play too well to be relegated. They should score at least one for that reason, they are fighting for their lives, whilst it's just a dead rubber for us other than the...

There would be 2 major points I think they will be going for : 1- Negreira's 'tasks' in regards to ensuring there weren't any more officials from Madrid judging disciplinary sanctions. This can be seen as an attempt to influence results and the competition, because obviously, the goal is to...

Because he threatened the club using blackmail unless we didn't keep paying, and no information ended up being released. Just a theory though, I'm not too sure what would continue to implicate the club to this present day. We won't know for at least a month why they have done that.

I don't know, the information that led them to do that isnt public for now, but the fact is they have extended the investigation to the present day. One thing that could correspond to it is the fact that after we stopped paying Negreira, he began to earn money from the FCF (Catalan football...

In the eyes of the court, and the tax authorities, these reports are junk. They don't consider that they corresponded to any payments and have made public statements to that effect, stating payments were found to Negreira which weren't invoiced to anything. The presiding judge also stated that...

Pep won't worsen his legacy for no reason, it is a thing he cares a lot about. Only finished managers like Jose downgrade to B tier clubs.

I've said it before, but to be honest, if we look at all the available evidence, the chances we are not guilty is really low. And by the looks of things there is a lot not in the public domain that would point to our guilt as well (the proceedings seem to be going very negatively). I don't know...

Two huge points just dropped today : Javier Negreira (the son) is now being investigated also for criminality, and the period of time being investigated is now extending from 2001 till the current day, meaning they believe some of these crimes being investigated are still occurring now. The...

Xavi : 'People demand the Champions League, but the reality is we are not at the financial level of Bayern, City, Madrid, Juventus...' Ignoring the terrible and misguided Europe mentality once again, its ironic he says this, because he has literally outspent all the clubs he himself named...

Agreed, its probably unlikely they have any link, unless the Negreira case takes a shocking and unexpected twist. It is worth mentioning though, one of the questions put to Javier Enriquez Negreira was about if he had ever been involved in real estate deals with Josep Contreras. His answer...
