He's a great player but I don't think he'll work at Barca. I don't think theres room for Ibi and Alexis so one would have to go. With Ibi doing so well at Schalke he might do his career a favor and stay

Saw the game against Madrid today and Fontas was deployed as a DM again. Not a good showing on his part as he gave away the ball which directly led to Madrid's second goal. The manager couldn't have been pleased as Fonti was taken off at the half.

I couldn't agree more. Great job buying him back :barca scarf:

Couldn't have said it better! Busquets doesn't get the credit he deserves because he doesn't play a glorified position. Who says they want to grow up and be a DMF? But he is the link that holds the chain together for Barca and Spain. Being that he's only 23 he is only going to get better.

Well said Zanela. I myself have been really surprised at Tito consistently leaving Bartra on the bench and sticking a brand new player who isn't even fluid in our system much less a position he's played maybe once before? It could be damaging to a player we consider our future on the backline...

Reus is a player I really really like. The only reason I would watch Monchengladbach last year. The kid is amazing! Alexis is a Barca player and I value what he brings to the team. But if asked on personal preference I'd rather have a Reus - Villa - Messi frontline.

I agree we need to see more of David Villa & Bartra. Puyol is our leader and captain. His tenacity and pride for this great club is irreplaceable. But as time goes on we need to fill the spots. Depending on how well Muniesa recovers; him and Bartra are our homegrown CBs for the future. We've...

Yeah I agree with you on both points. Dani has proven himself to be the best RB in the world for all his assists and the attack he's braught down that right side. He's also broken up so many attacks especially with great performances against those Madristas. If he did leave I think Abate would...

I heard PSG want Dani Alves. Dani has been a great soldier but his form dipped last season and it looks like he's started this season where he left off. He has left a lot of holes for others to cover and when he tries to make up time/space he usually makes a mistake like an own goal; not...

Besides the Barcelona 11 every week... Marco Reus of Dortmund is a great talent. Yann M'Vila, Mats Hummels, Arjen Robben, Van der Vaart

Exactly! If he did send that SMS it's because he's being smug. Why Why Why didn't we buy a CB? Especially after Muniesa tore his ACL. Now Hummels has signed a 5 year contract. Vertonghen has a 5 year contract and is doing really well. Kompany signed a new 5 year contract. Vermaelen is going to...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I just got home from work and watched the match (late, i know). Who do I see while the Champions League music is playing? PUYOL! I couldn't have been happier. Especially with El Classico coming up. We dominate the game and then the injury! Puyol was having a fantastic...

haha yeah somtimes all it takes is a good game and the fans are back on your side. All the rumors are saying Barca are lining up Tim Krul and I hope its true. Krul doesn't have the best backline in front of him but he is a stellar young keeper who makes very few mistakes.

Hi my fellow blaugrana! My name is Ahmer from California. Growing up where I did you'd be lucky if you found many who watched football much less played it so I got into it a bit late. Though I always watched the big tournaments (World Cup & Euros) and supported Holland. The oranje jerseys got me...

Hey guys I just joined the forum. Don't know if my original post went though but anyway... Why didn't we buy Jan Vertonghen from Ajax? Ajax/Barca have the same football philosophy. Vertonghen is very versatile and can play any position Alex Song can except he is an ACTUAL centerback. He can...
