    Europa League

    Razor Inter were missing half of the team (almost) against Eintracht. Although I do agree that Spalletti, although he secured Inter their first CL qualification in several seasons last season in dramatic fashion against Lazio away form home, is not the right long-term option. However given our...

    La Liga 2018/19

    Atlético, as written many times before, hence my criticism of them and Cholo's tactics (many users disagreed back then), have been bang average this season. In particular offensively. They barely create. I have watched the majority of their league games this season and it has been a recurring...

    Spain

    Don't understand some of those (if not quite a few) call ups from Lucho. One of the most average looking (at least on paper) NT call-ups that I can recall in the recent era. However given that we are playing the likes of Malta and Norway (all due respect to both) some of the names called up make...

    CL 1/4 Final: FC Barcelona - Manchester United 4-0 agg.

    Not read any posts on the forum since Thursday night but I am probably not the only one that is quite content about this draw. With all due respect to the current Man Utd team but we are superior on every position. Even the managerial one.:valverde: I cannot see us loss this tie over 2 legs...

    Lliga | Round 28: Real Betis - FC Barcelona 1-4

    Time to go "full Valverde" this time around. In other words "un once de gala para defender el liderato".:valverde: Sadly I will be traveling abroad so won't catch the match. A rarity but given Atlético's loss, I can be more calm.

    Pep Guardiola

    Is this a joke? In what universe is Zidane (A French guy of Algerian origin) with the combined total of 6 seasons at RM as a player and 4-5 years as a manager even close to being as big a madridista as Pep is a culé?:lol: The same Pep that is a La Masia graduate, was a ball boy at Camp Nou...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    Havesaks No point having this discussion any longer when Valverde did the talking for me at his presser earlier today. Basically said that both he and the staff new very well that Dembélé had a small injury and that he was not fully ready but according to him it was worth risking him against...

    Barca-related Open Thread

    A moderator should create a thread covering "institutional news" concerning the club (and all our sporting sections) and make it a sticky thread. A lot of interesting news not covered on this forum at all. The legend Pau Gasol has been appointed as one of our global ambassadors. In this case in...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    Well, I have been critical of Valverde for not using Malcom at all and basically freezing him out (looks like that after he did not get his wanted target the past summer which apparently was a 30 year old Willian for twice the transfer fee, lol) since forever and even more so after Malcom was...

    Pep Guardiola

    A Pep return would be a thing of beauty. Sadly it is unlikely to happen at any time (IMO) and certainly completely impossible as long as the current board is in power. Should he ever return it will most likely be after 2021. By that time Messi and Roberto might be the only players that he...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    You are a bit thick are you not? Thought so. Talk about missing the point (s) completely. Might read what users are writing before engaging in silly debates. Just a friendly advice. 1) Thanks for confirming what I just wrote. 2) Not cautious enough as Dembélé suffered from a relapse which...

    Luka Jović

    The guy is 21 years old. How many senior seasons in the elite leagues (top 4) has he had other than the current one and the last one where he scored 9 goals in 27 games in his first season in Germany? The point was that he was scoring plenty of goals in comparison to minutes played for Eintracht...

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    I don't think that anyone cares as nobody is interested in reading your one-liners nor expect you to make much sense if you attempted something else. As a side comment, I can inform you that 2 users alone wrote longer posts in the previous page than my "extremely" long reply. EDIT: Took a...

    Luka Jović

    Most of us that saw him play before wanted the club to buy him. It is a no brainer given his age, potential, the level that he has already showed so far and his player profile. Crucially his price being much cheaper than the likes of Félix and other such options. If we can get him for €40-50...

    Europa League

    Benfica destroying Zagreb in overtime. 3-0. Félix with 0 goals but Grimaldo scored the third right after Zagreb's red card. Not seen the goal yet. Sevilla out! 4-3. Machín most likely getting fired. This time around this song won't fit the occasion, sadly. E19owSLrZVw Pathetic stuff.:facepalm:

    Europa League

    I love you Sarr! It's a UEFA conspiracy against French teams. This is what I wrote on Reddit. "Farmer's League is the best league in the world. Niang is the next Messi." Yours truly, Jair Ventura. Sevilla 2-3! Franco Vázquez! FFS. 3-3.:facepalm::lol: Time to resign Juande Ramos to improve...

    Qatar FC

    No pfucks given from Rabiot's side given that he is leaving for free in June and already has been frozen out of the team for not wanting to prolong his contract despite Tuchel wanting to count on him. Talk about undermining your manager, lol and being petty. Ramsay is still playing for Arsenal...

    Clément Lenglet (loaned to Atletico)

    Deschamps have always had this more or less "untouchable favorites". Hence the likes of Laporte never getting a chance and several others. Not until long ago bang average footballers like Moussa Sissoko where one of his go-to guys off the bench. Anyway I am happy that Lenglet was not called up...

    Neymar Jr.

    Basically what everyone of us knew already. The snake and his entourage deliberately waited to make the move official so he could get that idiotic loyalty bonus. Fucking up our transfer window in the process. Of course he can't show the contract that he signed with PSG beforehand as that would...

    Europa League

    Villarreal leading 2-0 against Zenit at home and combined 5-1. No way are they going out now. So at least 3 out of the 16 remaining European teams will be Spanish. Sevilla (Munir) just scored a golazo (a beautiful volley outside of the penalty area) and there will be extra time should the...
