I saw legs in the olympics. Let us see. I stand by this signing though even if he would turn out to have less of an impact than Aguero on the pitch - it is nice just to have him come and be able to "leave through the front door" finally. What a player! How many years ago it was now that he...

So he could play like that two years ago, FOUR years after people here apparently deemed him too old, as the club also did. But now he has suddenly become a joke. Do y'all ever stop and wonder if you shouldn't be so early in ruling players out? Question your own judgement? Nice little "magic"...

I think the economic situation is MUCH better than some here believe. Laporta put many papers on the previous board, and Tebas feels the need to show who is boss, but I believe Barcelona will really spend a lot of money this summer, if not already in the winter if the right opportunity arrives.

Cafu spitting some truths: https://twitter.com/barcacentre/status/1459547959004209156 The club is on its way up, despite some of its fans (if you can call them fans) not really understanding what is going on... To those fans, I give this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQ-GzqK5_z8 edit...

Also, if I can be called "people" (I was at least one of those that always wanted Xavi in, one of few on this forum) I never wanted youngsters and I am very satisfied with Alves and Thiago coming. It's the ones who didn't want Xavi who moan about old players and amigos and tiki toki etc.

The trophies were coming if only Koeman got some more time!

Omg this is taking it a bit too far, Xavi!

Bernardo has played very well this year, no? I think the first money available should be used to bring Bernardo, who seems to want to come. Sterling I don't want ever. As unlikeable as Depay, and almost as bad. He has played under Pep in a system that really helps him a lot, and I understand...

A very pessimistic post, and I don't agree with a lot, but I single out these two things to respond to. - Part of the reason the signing is good is that he proved himself AT Barcelona already. It isn't as the terrible Zambrotta signing, which I was very sceptical about from the start, but it...

Yeah maybe, but it has also been the one position most in need of improvement since Alves left. I think it is a brilliant move with very few downsides, if Planes stepped down because of it it is all well and good. Did anyone catch what happened with Alves being available immediately or not? I...

Did you dig deeper, or did you just rehash the same take ad infinitum without ever answering the counter-arguments? Will you do some mental gymnastics if Xavi succeeds?

Apart from Alves, most players won't be available right now anyway. The deals shouldn't be finalized before the assessment you write about, but of course Xavi should have a sense for the market, and that he seems to consider Alves, Pedro, Thiago is natural and good!

Thiago is the one player that I can actually see succesfully replace Busquets to some extent. Just some years younger of course, and not really used to the position, but he has got the vision, the technique and the general quality for it.

https://twitter.com/barcacentre/status/1459471899277332492 Imagine this player too returning. If it happens, and it doesn't work, it would be a bit of a blow for my self-esteem... But it is very nice that Xavi seems to go for many of the options I would go for, can't wait for the games and the...

Is that wrong? If I knew that this sort of thing was frowned upon here, I would've never! The guy looks so happy: https://twitter.com/FCBarcelona/status/1459302749531783168

Reminds me a bit about this little tune, it is called 'The end of the world' by Boyd Rice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpdjoRMRKYY Some people like Richard H who couldn't handle my previous Bob Dylan avatar should probably not click on that link! But it is a nice post by Birdy, poetic, but...

I never called you a weasel. This user deserves it. You took the point I made for Setien v Messi after Setien had already lost the dressing room and tried to prematurely add it to Xavi, but the point was never about joining the rondos. The argument that a coach shouldn't enter rondos is just...

Yeah this was Messi-like, a really nice goal, but come on, a 7yo! I am ashamed to really have high hopes on that czech guy, 11-12 years old I think, but at 7 you really cannot tell anything!

- Zanetti played late, Maldini, Cafu, Carlos... Alves was always on their level, and always looked just as great physically mind you. He played very well in the olympics months ago. - He is said to play almost for free... He looks to be motivated, in good physical form, and his vision and...

I tired of this extremely dishonest and rude person after a bottle of wine. I usually just ignore him, and I guess I'll continue to do so. Really a despicable person in the way he presents himself here. I guess he'll continue to dishonestly post things like these, as he enjoys the reaction in...
