    6 - Gavi

    That was some real nonsense. People are applauding that he came on and started pushing Vini for no reason, but what will that do? He is picking up a yellow card that will mean he gets suspended quicker now for literally nothing. That is the type of unprofessional that we really don't need, and...

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    I agree, I think Gavi is going to struggle for starts this season, I see De Jong, Casado, Pedri and Olmo ahead of him, he can compete with Fermin but they have different styles. As you very correctly pointed out Casado is a very similar type to Gavi in his tenacity and defensive work rate but...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    We need to arrange a long term replacement this season before this becomes a scramble, this same thing happened with Busquets where we did not plan who will replace him and we ended with Romeu. Hopefully, by the time he is done, our finances will be stable and we can go for Haaland after he is...

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    We will almost certainly renew him, we don't have the funds to let go of great players as long as they want to stay because replacing him will be far more expensive than keeping him is.

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    I think nobody expected Mbappe to be this disappointing frankly. That is one reason the title looks far more achievable. On paper, their squad is better, but I agree we also have fighting chances to win and I always said that over the last 2 years that we have the talent to compete for the...

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    That is fair enough, Laporta is doing a very good job, as is Flick. I think Laporta also counted on a lot of luck with La Masia though, the sheer amount of talent we had from there in the last couple seasons is beyond all reason.

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    This is after Dembele left, I'm talking about when Dembele was here, you made the point that Dembele was one of the best offensive players and he would be benchwarmer now, but the reality is at that time he was preferring him over Raphinha. I think Dembele would still even play a lot of minutes...

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    At that time Dembele was competing with Raphinha for the spot, and Xavi preferred Dembele over him on many occasions, so you can't really say that is a squad improvement, it's actually Xavi's choice there.

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    I really can't believe we are still seeing people revising this as if it was expected, I mean, the atmosphere around here was literally doom at the end of last season, with most people saying we didn't have a chance to compete with Madrid. I think this magical start to the season needs to be...

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    I get that you changed your mind, which is fine, but I'm interested to know, what do you now think of the squad's quality under Xavi as opposed to what you were saying before? Around the time Xavi got sacked, you were saying the squad is nowhere close to Madrid and a league title was a miracle...

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    I think what's clear is the scheme is completely different, we finally gave up on rigid positional play and are reaping the benefits of it, I think any argument for continuity from Xavi doesn't really hold water due to the fact that the tactics were changed completely, these players have been...

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    Cubarsi and Inigo are both not that athletic, but they are both very smart in football terms, with Araujo, as much as I like him, we would never be able to hold such a disciplined line. The team continues to execute the offside trap to absolute perfection. I don't see the Cubarsi-Inigo pairing...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    If he is scoring like this in LaLiga long after his prime, it's fair to say that during his prime years if he had moved to a better league he probably wins a Ballon Dor by now. However, it still isn't ruled out he wins it this season, now with no Messi, his competitors are the likes of Haaland...

    11 - Raphinha

    You are not understanding, I am not asking to debate football with you, I am challenging you to show me saying all the things you claimed I said, because I believe you are lying as I do not remember saying any of them. We can debate football after and I can show you the hundreds of times you...

    11 - Raphinha

    Man, I just gave you 7 or 8 different posts that contradict what you said, you aren't reading? You still did not show any reference for the multiple different things you claimed, you lied about all of them. I am waiting for you to link posts for the following, if you will not answer, I will do...

    11 - Raphinha

    "De Jong is the best midfielder in the world" I cannot find anywhere I said this either, I actually don't have that many posts about Frenkie, here is one from a conversation with you 2 years ago :

    11 - Raphinha

    That is false, here we go, I am going to show dozens of posts proving you are wrong about what you claimed I said: "Raphinha was a disaster signing"

    11 - Raphinha

    You want me to prove you wrong on this again? When I give the context for this statement it will show again you lied.

    11 - Raphinha

    Exactly, you cannot answer and again you change the topic like you always do when someone has you in a corner. You could not be bothered to prove what you say but you can be bothered to write me a page long response? This is showing you are a liar and you cannot answer when someone challenges...

    11 - Raphinha

    Ok, lets condense this post, you are claiming I said De Jong is the best midfielder in the world, claiming I said the league 'means nothing', claiming I said all of Xavi's signings are poor, claiming I said Raphinha only started playing well this season (is this error because you...
