Yes, but at that moment this decision was correct. He couldn't influence Leo, and he also couldn't influence Suarez, who was Leo's great friend. In addition, Valverde received Coutinho, whom neither he nor the Barcelona analysis department wanted. A representative of the analytical headquarters...

Valverde is a great coach. And I am sorry that, due to the circumstances in which he found himself, he was not able to implement his principles on the football field.

And Valverde didn’t believe in Barcelona’s DNA. He called it nonsense. Two years ago he gave an interview and said something like this - talk about the DNA of Barcelona is nonsense. When a player plays well, you say he has Barcelona DNA, and when a player plays poorly, you say he doesn't have...

I see several players in this team who are not ready to press at the proper level. Lewandowski - it doesn’t matter what diet you follow, how much you train, but age makes itself felt. Felix - by his nature, he was always a rather lazy player when it came to defensive work. And you can't change...

One of my fears is that with Lewandowski, 37, we will not be able to create the most effective pressing possible. By the way, there are now reports that Xavi wanted to sell Lewandowski because he is bad at pressing.

You can evaluate Javi's work in different ways, but let's express our gratitude to him for not insisting on the monetary compensation that was due to him. This action shows that he truly loves and cares about this club. Compare this act with Mr. “President, lower the salaries of others, but...

I understand that sponsors are aware of the state of your company. But when your director comes out to the public and says what crap the company is in, it creates an even more negative impression among potential sponsors.

In this context, Laporta can also be understood. Imagine that you are looking for the best sponsor for your company, and the director you appointed goes out to the public and tells what crap this company is in. Do you think you will be able to negotiate with sponsors from a position of strength...

I agree with @Birdy here. This whining really demoralizes the team and creates a defeatist approach.

Raphinha, Araujo. Either these guys have a conflict with Xavi, or the club decided not to risk their health, since they are close to retirement, and in the event of an injury, transfers could fall through.

Don't be surprised by the small salaries of Dest, Langlais and Fati - they receive almost twice as much. It’s just that now we pay approximately 50% of their salaries.

In addition, on our balance sheet on the website where you look at salaries, Dest, Fati, Lenglet are listed. So, if Frankie’s salary was at least at the level of Valverde, which is 16 million euros, and if we do not take into account the salaries of Dest, Legle and Fati, then it turns out Real...

Idiot, our salary fund is less than Real's fund by 70 million euros. If it weren't for Frankie's abnormally high salary, our fund would have been 90 million euros less.

Piece of shit, I have already proven that Messi and his family bear the same responsibility for the current financial situation as Bartomeu. Try to give arguments that prove the opposite. But you won't do it. The only thing you can do well is lick Messi's balls.

Do not say that. Many people here consider even the shit Leo leaves in the toilet every day to be sacred.

True. According to my estimates, the Barcelona Salary fund is about 220 million euros. I'm talking about the first team now. This is less than Real Madrid, Manchester United, Man City, Bayern, etc. Most of our Salary Fund is our debts to Messi, Alba, Umtiti, etc.

Now I have my doubts about Niko after watching two full matches of him. I didn’t like his ball control. It felt like his legs are “wooden” and this prevented him from controlling the ball well. Our analytical department must analyze everything well. There's no margin for error here.

@khaled_a_d is right in his assessment of Cubarsi's current level. Small, quite slow, but with an excellent pass. We already had such a player - Garcia. At the same time, Garcia is better in aerial duels.

You can't fix genetics. And you can't significantly improve the technical skills of a 24 year old player.

Сubarsi doesn't fit Flick's aggressive style. His speed qualities are questionable. He reminds me of Garcia - small, slow, but with a great pass. However, Garcia is better in aerial duels. That's why: Сubarsi - NO Faye - YES I like the idea of Raphinha as an attacking midfielder, I've been...
