    http://www.tmb.cat/en/sala-de-premsa/-/seccio/noticies/transport/noticies-trofeu-joan-gamper-20120817-serveis-de-transport So more trains and employees, but it will still close at midnight.

    Transportation in Barcelona. Metro,bus,taxi..

    At worst you could always go to the big hotel across the street (Gran Torre Catalunya) and ask the person at the desk to call you one. Another option is to walk north from the stadium to Av. Diagonal. It's a busy street with office towers, universities, restaurants and large hotels. It...

    FC Barcelona tickets: questions and info

    If you paid the regular price (you probably did), you don't need a soci card. The metro closes at midnight on weekdays so you'll have to take a cab, walk, or maybe find a night bus that goes in that direction.

    Things to do in Barcelona

    Accommodation: Doesn't really matter because the public transport system is very good. When I went, I stayed near the Barcelona Sants train station because it's easy to get to from the airport and it's possible to walk to stadium (about 20 minutes). If you want something more central (but far...

    Neymar - v2

    How convenient that these rumors are always about him coming in 2013, 2014, 2078, etc. So when something finally happens for real in a year or two, the journalist will be able to say "see, told ya so" even if he had no clue whatsoever about what was really going on at the time.

    Please help a new fan

    The date and hour of the game will be confirmed about 2-3 weeks before (it could also be played on september 22nd) . The tickets will then go on sale. Granada is not a big team so there will be plenty of tickets available. The closer to the game you wait, the more tickets will become available...

    Seydou Keita

    Not saying we shouldn't but that would be awful business. It would mean we would have paid Chelsea 5 million to loan them one of our players for a year. It's even worse than the Bojan deal.

    United States to host "Special Edition" Copa America, 2016

    They should at least merge the Copa America with the Gold Cup, which is a useless tournament. Always the same host country, only two potential winners, no interest abroad. There probably isn't enough quality in the Americas to have a decent 16-team tournament though. 12 teams would be better but...

    Pep Guardiola

    Dominate what? If anything, the quality of life is better in smaller countries. Large countries with a large population are a mess to manage and the citizens end up feeling like they don't have any influence on the government. Most people don't care if their country is a superpower or not...

    Thiago Translantara

    barcastuff ‏@barcastuff Guillen (doctor Olympic team ESP): "Thiago has a fracture that hasn't healed yet. He at least has to recover for two more months." Guillen (doctor): "Thiago is devastated. He didn't want to join the team on the first day in Madrid today because he didn't want to cry."...

    Jordi Alba

    I think the presenters were saying that he understands it, but he doesn't feel confident enough to speak it in public (aside from the two sentences he said). I might be wrong though as my Spanish is probably a lot worse than his Catalan.

    Jordi Alba

    I thought he spoke catalan but apparently he's not fluent. His family is from Andalusia.

    Van Persie

    Sucks for the gooners, especially after all these "RVP would never leave us" last summer.

    He's a big Jesus Navas fan.

    Andrés Iniesta

    I think Iniesta stands a good chance of winning. Even though they shouldn't, voters will eventually get tired of Messi winning everytime and start to put him in second or third hoping for an upset. Ronaldo is a lot less popular than Messi because, you know, everyone is so jealous of him. You...

    Gerard Piqué

    You can clearly see that they're all against Piqué. Xavi is judging him hard. Valdes is kicking him. Alba is coming at Busi's defense. I bet he'll be sold by friday.

    Gerard Piqué

    I see the Punto Pelota logo. Did they "discussed" this incident for 45 minutes+? I bet Roncero was fuming, asking for Piqué to never be called up again. Xavi in the corner is so above all this petty BS.

    Defender for next season?

    What? Aren't you thinking of Keita?
