I loved the reception Valdés got from the fans last night. It's a shame for the stick he's got (heaven knows how much I've defended this guy in the past!), but I'm soo happy that he is appreciated now. He has been very crucial in previous seasons, but I don't know what he's done to make him be...

Whatevs.... :D Ok I see your point. I do think Piqué is well up there with the best of them.

I don't think bojan is such a great CF. I said it.. sorry but it's my opinion. I would have much preferred us to sign a player like Kanoute, keep eto'o and be done with the whole thing. However given the situation as it is, I still say bring in Villa. He can play both roles.

Yes :( I thought this wasn't the topic to talk about it.. Then I thought I'd look sly if you quoted me saying something else lol.

Well my gf loves pique, so I guess I'm just trying to get in on a bit of the action..

:) Thanks amigo. I went to bcn, enjoyed my time there but came back and i missed london so much that i made less time to watch spanish football. Ironically my gf is such a cule that i began to watch the games more. it was the inter defeat that made me realise why i am so proud to be cule!

Villa can and has played in a more withdrawn role for valencia and plays it to good effect. He isn't a target man. He is very mobile, and although pedro is efficient in front of goal, the guy doesn't pass well. Against inter he kept receiving the ball, then passing it back to xavi. That was his...

A big name doesn't automatically make u a galactico. Firstly, Villa isn't being brought in to sell shirts. He is being brought in because he is one of the best at what he does, and what he does is what the club needs. You don't have to be the anti-madrid to win titles. Sometimes you need to make...

Surely this guy isn't serious? He is complaining of not getting on with his boss at his loan club, and then he wants to try and fit back into a squad that not only did he not fit into in the first place, but that hasn't changed much since he left. And how much spanish did he learn when he was away?

By the way, what's wrong with the current generation of football fan? Why can't people choose the obvious choice? I mean I'm starting to worry that if I did include Messi, everyone would vote for Xavi because Messi is the "easy choice"! There's a reason he's the easy choice!

Pique definitely deserves a shout. He has been incredible and is definitely the future captain of this club. While Xavi knits together the team on the pitch, Pique knits them together off it.

From what I understand, he alienated a lot of loyal cules with ticket pricing. It became more about bringing in the foreign fan than it did to letting the locals see their club. I was surprised how many local people I spoke to when I got to bcn about whether they went to the games or not, and...

Messi deserves to be in everyone's number 1 place. It's like putting maradona's teammate above maradona just cause maradona was expected to be world class. I'm just asking about the next player. My vote goes to Xavi. We beat valladolid last night without him, but Valladolid was a relegation...

What cheeky grin?

I think it's fair to say that Messi would win any poll of this kind. Maybe not get 100% of the votes, but having a poll with Messi in it would just be a rhetorical poll. So I thought it would be interesting for you to vote on the second best player in the team.

Estel, don't take it personally man. Trust me, you just voiced their opinion and just cause they don't agree with it doesn't mean they didn't read your explanation. There are ways to go for villa this summer. You make it sound as if villa is completely unrealistic. He isn't. Villa is the...

I give him great credit for the Frank decision. That probably defined his presidency: stability and success. As for the pep decision, I don't want to take anything away from laporta from that, but even Joan himself admitted he didn't see success like that. So I would definitely say the Frank...

Some cules want laporta out because of his dealings with the local fans, and I've experienced that first hand, but I don't think anyone can deny that he has brought the club a long long way, and has left it in a much better state than when he arrived.

I guess there was always a small part inside of us PTCers that saw us in this position several seasons ago. Treble winners and back to back la liga winners. With Messi being the undisputed best player in the world and close to the best in history. If I had been given the mic at the Camp Nou...

All credit to laporta for the club that he helped rebuild.
