Yeah this is the only place in the world where players like Xavi and Iniesta are regarded as surplus to requirements and "not good enough". Granted Xavi is aging and has injury problems, but when he plays he is still fantastic. Now they are saying the same about Iniesta. The problem is that...

Sell Messi? Wow, id love to see how quickly barca got relagated if the board was replaced by members of this forum. This place is the only place I've ever seen people criticise barca's midfield as the problem behind their drop in quality over the last few years. If that point had any real basis...

Dortmund? The team that are second bottom of the bundesliga this season? Ok.

I'm curious. What happens if the laporta board comes back in and nothing changes in terms of the running of the club and the performances?

See that's always my argument. But people on here are obsessed with Iniesta not contributing enough, and not stepping up to produce goals/assists. If you don't think Iniesta wins games for barcelona, then you don't understand football very much. He's not going to have a messieqsue performance...

Could you translate what it says under each pic please?

Any football pundit who knows anything about football will tell you tha barcas best midfield is currently busquets-rakitic-Iniesta. It doesn't matter what people post on here, that will not change unless someone shoots Iniesta in the knee. Iniesta this season 18 games 4 goals 7 assists David...

new coach, perhaps, new board? Not a chance. Not unless we go on a streak where we lose every single game for the next month before losing 15-0 on aggregate to man city to be put out of the CL, in that case, we might get an election, if we're lucky.

As I go through the pages I'm finding it harder and harder to stop myself thinking this is all just childish hype and overreaction. Not a single respectable new outlet has posted about messi falling out with Enrique. The only coincidence is this Instagram bullshit has happened directly after...

We are third favourite to win the CL. We are considered to have the best youth academy in the world. I agree the board needs to change, but I can't agree on the rest. I think busquets rakitic and Iniesta is a solid midfield, the problem is the defence behind them and the way in which the team...

do you really think it's a possibility? If the board go through three managers in three years, which is looking likely, surely that much pressure them into either elections or atleast making big changes in the way the club is run? Is there nothing the fans can do in protest to get early elections?

It's convenient that people forget about the bad performances when pep was manager but throw a hissy fit about how we need a "plan b" when any other manager has a few mediocre performances.

I kinda hope it happens. The look on bartomeu's face will be priceless when the fans come to lynch him.

It's quite simple really, Chelsea and man city pay fifa their annual subscription of "corruption" and therefore the rules change to suit them, not the other way around.

This. The board might not resign, but atleast it maintains bad image for the board. There's only so many scape goats that can be sacked before they're all facing of the firing squad. I doubt there is even a fallout between Enrique and messi, and if there is one, it's probably one manufactured...

Depends on if alba has his shooting boots on

"El Mundo Deportivo has revealed that the club's first training session of 2015 was marred by a war of words between the two when Enrique failed to award a free-kick to Messi during a 5-a-side game." Sounds like a rather premature April fools article. I'm certain it's just tabloids trying to...

Why is all people talk about "plan B"? This is football, not unprotected sex. I think we have the quality of players going forwards, we just need stability at defence. People have unrealistic expectations if they expect us to win every game 5-0 playing flawless, exciting football. Madrid also...

Good bye puyol :( come back soon Edit: Zubi is a scapegoat but I don't feel any sympathy for him. He was completely incompetent. Thiago and fabregas should never been sold, there are players in the squad who should have been offloaded long before them. We wouldn't have had to raise capital for...
