Well, I'm not an official PSG expert, but to me they need two players. They already needed one even before the whole Rabiot thing. Weigh and Paredes altogether cost less than FDJ. But since they apparently don't give a shit about FFP, I can see them going for FDJ and Weigl (who's apparently...

Yeah, I honestly don't know what to make of all that. Getting Weigl, Paredes AND De Jong seems like complete overkill, even for PSG. Unless their whole plan is to buy every single player in the world and win UCL due by default. Which would make sense.

I don't really get the "Monaco" point though. They failed miserably in UCL this season. But they also failed miserably in Ligue 1 so far. So how does it prove that Ligue 1 is a bad league ? I mean, I would sort of get your point if they flopped in Europe but were crushing it France (would be...

I think you're wrong with that "solid gap" between Serie A/Bundesliga and France. First of all because Bundesliga is a better league than Serie A (watch some games in both league to make up your mind about it, or just wait next season or the one after to see Germany take 3rd place in UEFA...

Playing against Leganes won't make you better than playing against Amiens, true. But playing UCL every year, and training with the best players in the world will sure help.

My issue with people here talking about "farmer league Ligue 1" (besides the fact that they never even watch Ligue 1) is that they always tend to say that Ligue 1 is "miles" behind Bundesliga or Italy in terms of overall level. Worse, they don't criticize based on what they're seeing, but only...

Man, from a neutral point of view, some of you seem incredibly bitter over the loss of a player they've never even seen playing more than twice I'd wager. Get over it. Plenty of fish in the sea, especially for a team like Barcelona.

Dude's using "shit hole" and "it's not only my opinion, a lot of people think the same thing !!!!" in the same sentence. Man, Baldwin's Trump impersonation is getting duller and duller by the minute.

Yeah, those poor "normal teams" who can only afford players like Coutinho for 120 million euros.

It will decrease, but it will still be well above any other top team in Europe. Even without that big fat Messi salary: spending 70% of your revenue on wages is OK if your players are clearly much better than the ones playing for other teams, because you're paying for quality. But I don't really...

I don't really see how those numbers prove your point (well, unless I didn't fully get your point, which is a possibility). The only comparable teams (in terms of level) among the ones you're mentioning in the Staff cost/Operating Revenue ratio are Bayern (51%), City (52%) and Juve (64%). Juve...

A good chunk of the bits from that last video are from games against PSG, City and Marseille. He thrives against big teams. Iirc, his first "impressive" game for Lyon was against PSG. That's when everybody started paying attention. He just walked over their midfield like a boss. Though I think...

Did you seriously just implied that Mbappe could "possibly" reach the level of Sterling? :lol: The dude is already miles ahead, while being 3 years younger.

Also, it's utterly false to claim that Malcom had any kind of deal with Inter but decided to fuck them over to go to Rome instead. Inter didn't want to pay cash, they offered Bordeaux some kind of shady "paying loan with an option to buy", mid season. Bordeaux told them to fuck off (and they...

Ah, thanks, totally lost track of that. Weird that so many french papers talked about that then (well, I mean, not that it's their job to actually find out if a rumor has any sense, but you know, it would be nice of them).

Surprised that no one mentioned a rumor that I've heard in several french and brazilian medias (but maybe spanish websites didn't talk about it at all): Pablo, from Bordeaux. CB, 27, Brazil NT player, best defender in the brazilian league in 2017, and probably one of the best CB in Ligue 1 this...

It all comes down to what I posted here when asked about him a couple months ago. He's an incredible talent, and what he's doing at his age is very impressive. But a lot of barca fans are biased because of two things: - They've been spoiled by what Messi did when he was young, and they tend to...

Oh, and I see you also mentioned Favre. He did some impressive work in Nice, and everybody here wanted him to stay but his president agreed to let him leave (which was a nice gesture, considering Favre is already 61 and coaching Dortmund was a big opportunity for him). He's killing it in...

Short answer: I don't think neither Garcia nor Blanc would be good enough for Barca. Garcia did some really good work for Lille and Rome, and his debut for Marseille seemed promising. But right now he's struggling with basically the same team as last year + Strootman and - Zambo Anguissa (which...

Rather good game tonight against PSG. Was important on our first goal (his pass for Karamoh was a nice one).
