    Tito Vilanova dies at age 45

    I think this is the worst I've ever felt as a barca supporter RIP Tito. You will be missed.

    Man of the Match 13/14 edition

    Messi Iniesta Alves Pedro All four deserve creds for all the work they did today. Alexis and Alba get honourable mentions in my book aswell

    5 - Carles Puyol

    Puyol was one of my favorites since he first came on the field in 1999 just when I started supporting Barca, and he has been my favorite more or less ever since. In my opinion, the greatest barca player there has been for at least the last 20 years. Maybe not the always best player, but the...

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    I am not sure if Deulofeu is ready to be a starter. He has been unlucky with the injury putting himself on the sideline for such a long time, but I still have faith that he can make an impact this season. He might need an extra season on loan, but I wouldn't think we'd be sad to get him back...

    Gerard Piqué

    I feel fairly certain Pique was the worst of the backline. The worst part was that everyone was pretty terrible, and the midfield offered so little support in defending.

    Alexis Sanchez

    While he wasn't terrible, I don't think many would call his display "good". He squandered possession a few times, and he seemed to break up good barca movements when he got involved. He moved well off the ball a few times, but he could produce that last bit of skill to get something positive out...

    Cristian Tello

    Not 100% convinced yet about Tello this year, but this game might give him a confidence boost which he seemed to need. The second half of the game was played in a manner that really suits him as a player, and to a large degree, Barca as a team. Messi made the real difference in the goals by...

    Defender for next season?

    What about Dede from Vasco da Gama? Cheap, young, tall, and talented from what I've seen and heard. I don't think his price tag is too large either. Barca seem to be fixed in the notion that any player they buy must be from a large European club or a Spanish club which seems a little strange...

    Defender for next season?

    This might be stupid as it is a thought that just jumped into my mind, BUUUUT... Mascherano did have a pretty awesome season as a CB even through he is short and not a natural CB. What if we got a new CB, and tried playing a 3 man defense which guardiola seems to like, and play mascherano as a...

    Defender for next season?

    Reducing debt does not mean the club stops investing in new players, but being smart about where they invest it. Success is an important factor in debt reduction for a club such as barca, and now that puyol is getting older and becomming more susceptible to injury, there is more need to sure up...

    Defender for next season?

    A comparison of Silva, Hummels, J. Martinez, and Vertonghen. Experience - Silva is the most experienced defender, with a few more years under his belt, which shows in how he plays. He is often able to stomp out attacks before they really get going. The other 3 have similar experience and are of...

    Defender for next season?

    He might have been brought up before. Jan Vertonghen could be a good fit for Barca. He is quite young, he has experience, is a good defender from what I have seen of him and he can get forward and make an impact in attack at times. He is a tall player meaning he is an asset when defending set...
