lol I thought the laughing smiley at the end was enough indication that I was joking heres the article though http://okdiario.com/deportes/futbol/el-barcelona-muy-cerca-de-cerrar-el-patrocinio-de-la-camiseta-con-pepsi-65608 and yeah pepsi does taste funny...

read villarubis wife is head of coca cola iberia and hes heavily opposing the deal :lol:

supposedly board is negotiating with pepsi

tasci already injured with a concussion lol

so what real sells more jerseys and do better marketing. their whole philosophy is to make money and they sacrifice the sporting success for it. why do you even give a shit about them being economically above us? let them keep buying players for their marketing value while we win trophies.

unearthed is a nonsensical word in that context. you could argue the same for pedro, busquets and pique then

Thiago, Pique,...

we've always taken in players at that age, both pedro and busquets joined when they were 17. we also have always bought squad players. only thing that changed is sending prospects on loan
