Alexis' and Fabregas' fees were considered very high at the time. The modern equivalent would be around 60-80m.

Cesc was a flop, and so was Alexis until his last season. Song was also a retarded transfer.

I still maintain that Messi leaving last summer would have been better for us than him leaving this summer. Would have saved a year of his wages which is probably enough for Haaland's transfer fee and Barto would have taken all of the fallout.

#AnnounceHaaland Too soon?

Yeah Laporta dug himself into a bit of a hole there. Overpromised during his campaign. I hope he doesn't lose too much political capital if Messi leaves. I don't think it was necessary to win either. His opposition was a joke.

I like him, but this ship has sailed. It's time to move on. He's only a year younger than Pjanic, will be 30 by summer. The age range we should be targeting with our transfers is 24-27. Not raw, can make an immediate impact and not the age where you're looking for your last big contract. If...

Yes. Laporta will give him a fair deal and if he doesn't take it, he is free to leave. He absolutely cannot expect not to take a huge pay cut, no matter where he goes. I'm not even sure those super rich chinese clubs could match his current wages. He also can't expect a 5 year contract unless...

Good. We can't bend over backwards to keep a 34 year old, especially considering our current financial situation.

I doubt he'd be rushed back for PSG. La Liga and CDR are probably the priority now.

FC Laporta from day one. We move.

He's the reason our cycle didn't end in 2012.

Return of the Jedi

Atletico style collapse incoming

If Atletico drops 3 more points, it's in our hands.

Judging by the lineup against Osasuna, this game isn't a priority for the team at all.

Play the B team in the CL. They probably wouldn't melt down so spectacularly.

Don't tell BBZ

2020 Bayern is closer to 2012 Chelsea than to 2011 Barca. I legitimately think 2012 Chelsea could win a CL semi-convincingly right now. That's the gap between the level of the game then and now.

Full 11 bar Dembele. Looks like Koeman doesn't think we have a chance against PSG. Understandable but a bit disappointing.

Barca's easily. No team today would have made the CL semis that year.
