Great news, is it already known which other B-team players will start with the first team on Monday?

Doubt that ;) We often read the myth that most socis are uninformed elderly people who only only read EMD/Sport. But is that really the case, does there exist a break-down of the 120+ thousand socis per age?

Like him or not, Bartomeu's PR-team is doing quite an impressive job on his twitter-account. You can clearly see the know-how of Didac Lee there, his twitter-campaign will surely ensure a lot of votes.

Lol, Bartomeu arguing with Benedito on Twitter (about not participating in the debate today). Apparently "Barto" will participate in the Presidential debate next Tuesday 14 July .@agustibenedito amb molt de gust. Estaré encantat de debatre idees i propostes el proper dia 14 - Barto...

Btw, is Sport also related to Grupo Godo somehow? I know EMD and RAC1 both belong to Grupo Godo (which is clearly visible in their articles :p), but Sport seem pretty pro-Bartomeu too, so I'm wondering if they're related to Grupo Godo too?

Arda's agent confirms that Lucho has pushed a lot for the transfer today, to convince the interim Presidency (http://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20150706/20738359310/el-agente-de-arda-confirma-un-acuerdo-con-el-barca-por-cinco-anos.html) Ideally Bartomeu should have signed Arda...

I didn't know Puyol was a midfielder? Anyway, he only start playing in official games on January 1 indeed. I don't think he'll stay at Atleti until then, there were some rumours previously that he'd be loaned out to a Turkish team (Galatasaray I think?)

Btw, can Turan and Aleix Vidal participate in our friendlies in the coming weeks? I know Suarez was allowed to participate in friendlies during his FIFA-ban, but that was another kind of ban. Anyone know the details?

Well, we got 33M for Cesc, and I consider Arda a huge upgrade over Cesc, so I don't mind the few extra millions in variables.

I think he'd have been sold to Chelsea by then (Atletico need the money to buy Vietto and co apparently)

His buy-out clause was 41M, and considering that there was so many interest (Chelsea + ManUtd), it's logical that Atletico didn't want to sell him for less, especially not to a direct competitor. Lol at Bartomeu though indeed, "he'll be cheaper than 35M" ;)

Btw, he looks a little bit like Oleguer in that picture: http://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/oficial-arda-turan-nuevo-jugador-del-barca-4334270

http://www.fcbarcelona.cat/futbol/primer-equip/detall/noticia/acord-per-a-la-incorporacio-d-arda-turan What an explanation, haha. But very good deal by the Interim Presidency imho, that Arda still can be sold on 20 July in case another precandidate wins and that precandidate doesn't want him

Every candidate promises players. It was quite funny this morning, during the presidential debate Benedito first announced that names of players are not that important, it's the quality of the program that matters. Then some hours afterwards Benedito confirms on his Twitter that they're trying...

The interim presidency will have a meeting this evening (at 17:00 or 19:00) where they'll decide if Arda will be signed or not. So there'll be more news this evening.

EMD interview with Laporta: http://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20150706/20728295305/laporta-el-presidente-del-barca-debe-ser-el-de-todos-los-barcelonistas.html

True, if there's a debate between Laporta and Bartomeu, I think Laporta would win easily. Shame that that debate won't happen.

Damn, my stream went offline, any other good streams?
