Ter stegen is one of those goalies where he will do about 5 miracle saves a season and let you down when it really matters. To make things worse he actually thinks he's prime pirlo or something

I would like nothing more than xavi and iniesta to get the credit they deserve. Obviously no one knows the future, it's just my honest opinion. Football fans have short memories. If people look through the history books, Messi will hold practically every Barca record. That's why I think it will...

We won't forget them as we know what they contributed. I'm saying after 20 years or so, this period of Barca will be called Messi's era. Just like most people credit everything to the main player of successful teams. It's happened throughout history. Di Stefano, pele, cruyff, maradona etc. They...

Of course Messi has fault in the current state of the team. The majority of the media still see Messi as the world's best player, while they see Barca as an average team.

The truth is that the players you mentioned deserve so much credit along with pep. Football isn't fair a lot of the time. As more time passes the most successful period in Barca's history will be synonymous with Messi. A lot of other key players will be forgotten. Same happened with Pele and...

The narrative coming after yesterday's game seems to be Messi should leave if he wants a realistic chance to win another CL. Barca are seen as a very average team who will need a few years to rebuild. Time that Messi doesn't have. This is the view of most pundits and analysts atm.

His real value is around 50m. Only Barca are stupid enough to pay double the amount a player is worth. You'd have thought bartomeu & co would have learnt after the dembele, coutinho and griezmann transfers have crippled the club financially.

I don't think it's an accident when the same player has came top in 9 out of 11 seasons. He always has near enough the highest successful dribbles, assists and goals every year.

The rating is based on a number of things. Number of successful dribbles, key passes, assists and goals are taken into account. Ronaldo has never won it as he has been mainly a goalscorer for a long time now. The more well rounded player will achieve the higher rating.

Lionel Messi: WhoScored European Player of the Season 2009/10 ✅ 2010/11 ✅ 2011/12 ✅ 2012/13 ✅ 2013/14 ❌ 2014/15 ✅ 2015/16 ✅ 2016/17 ❌ 2017/18 ✅ 2018/19 ✅ 2019/20 ✅ Excellent consistency from leo. Suarez won in 13/14 and neymar in 16/17.

IMO he was better this season than the last one. Probably fixed it last season to keep him happy

I like trincao so I don't want to sell him for good. It is unlikely yes, that's why I said we should see if the buyer is willing. If they're not, we keep him, no problem. Real bought back morata from juve and then sold to chelsea for double the price. As for 70m, I used that as a ballpark figure.

If there is some truth to it, the board should see if we could put in a buy back for around 70m, a bit like what Real Madrid do. He won't get many minutes next year as his position is RW. If he does well, he'll be worth more than 70m in a couple of years and if he flops we would have made 30m...

He's probably backtracked as he isn't getting many offers from big clubs. Man utd and real Madrid were strongly linked with him, but solskjaer and Zidane have done well, especially the 2nd part of the season. Apart from us, juve are probably the only big club that will need a new manager next...

It's quite obvious the league has declined though. It was the best league in the world during the 90's. Absolutely no chance a 36 year old quagliarella and immobile would be top scorer with the level of players that used to play at that time. It's more of a retirement home for top players or...

If pochettino is willing to coach Barca, he should be our no.1 choice to replace setien. Xavi is a legend but poch has managed at a high level for a number of years now.

He is still their best player. Just nowhere near the level he was before he left Barca.

During the 4 CL wins, a lot of Madrid players were clutch. It's just the media always gives credit to Ronaldo. Bale was clutch in 2 finals. Keylor navas was super clutch when they needed him. He always made big saves when the team was under pressure.

If we could do something like 25m plus coutinho loan for the season for auba, it would be a good deal for us. If coutinho can have a good season in EPL again, his value would increase and clubs will hopefully have money to spend again the season after.

Watched the whole game yesterday and I thought neymar's performance was poor. I don't know if it's due to a lack of competitive games, but he looked slow and struggled to beat his man.
