FC Barcelona Handbol

Victor Tomas will retire at the end of the season. His number 8 will also be retired. One of the all time greats. Let's hope he can go out with another CL trophy.

Slovenian wunderkind ? playmaker Domen Makuc should join FC Barca Lassa in the upcoming season according to several Handball-Planet.com sources.

One of the greatest handball talents on the Earth with the style which could put individual capabilities on the level of magic is the long prospect for the future of the most successful handball team in history.

This kid is really talented. Don't know how much he'll play next year behind Cindrić and Entrerrios though.


This team looks like a great mixture of youth and experience.

Great, will make Pascual's job of fucking up a bit tougher in Final 4 of 2024. I think Pascual and Valverde share the same Netflix account. Best buddies they are.

Liga Asobal has been officially suspended a few days ago so Barca has won their 10th consecutive (and 27th overall) league title. We've won all 19 games this season and have no domestic competition for years so we'd won the league regardless even if it would be finished.

About the CL EHF has canceled the Last 16 round and quarter-finals. There will be Final Four played in December in Cologne between the two best teams from both groups on the final group phase rankings, so Barca, PSG, Kiel and Veszprem.

Raul Entrerrios has renewed until 2025. He plans to retire after the 2021 Olympics and then he'll join Xavi Pascual's coaching staff.

Barca and BM Logrono have left the ASOBAL (Asociaci?n de Clubs Espa?oles de Balonmano) federation. They alongside 5 other teams have unsuccessfully demanded a step down of the league president Adolfo Aragones. Despite leaving ASOBAL they will continue to play in all domestic competitions as RFEBM (Spanish handball federation) has approved last month being a part of ASOBAL is not obligatory to participate in the league (the same for Copa and Supercopa).

So nothing really changed in reality. I think it would be the best for Barca to join French league to have more competitive games every year against the likes of PSG and Montpellier (LNH Division 1 is currently rated as the best league in Europe while Liga ASOBAL is only the 5th best) or else it will be tough to keep a competitive team just for EHFCL longterm but it's probably not realistic.

 

[Messi983]

Still unbeaten this season. 12 wins in 12 games in liga ASOBAL and 6 out of 6 in the EHFCL where we won away against Kiel last week. We play against them again this Thursday in Palau Blaugrana.


Our opponent in the semi-final of the Final four for the 2019/20 season (which was rescheduled from last spring for obvious reasons) will be PSG. Kiel and Veszprem will play in the second semi-final. Both games will be played on December 28th with the final/3rd place game following the next day.

Yea, but we were the best team until the Final 4 of EHF CL before as well. And somehow we screw the pooch when it matters most.

Battling PSG in final4 of EHF CL.
It is an intro to a real deal on football.

 

[Messi983]

Leading 18-14 at HT, Dika Mem with 6 goals.

End to end stuff in first 10 minutes when we conceded 10 goals and PSG had a 3 goals lead. Then Pascual replaced Perez de Vargas with Moller which probably turned the game in our favor so far as Moller already has 7 saves.

Still far from over though. We need to continue doing well in defense and score from fast breaks.

 

[serghei]

We ate half a croissant today. The other half in February - March .

We have a stellar team. The 9 m line is by far the best. Palmarsson, Cindric, Mem, N'guessan. That's like Messi, Neymar, Mbappe and Salah in their prime.

 

[Messi983]

Easy.

Now let's hope we can win the final.

 

[serghei]

Hoping for Kiel. Should be easier.

 

[Horatio]

Team should be cut loose. Cost/benefit doesnt make sense. Especially during these times. I mean, who likes handball?

 

[Messi983]

Nah, at least they are performing unlike most (former) football stars.

Hoping for Kiel. Should be easier.

Yeah, probably.
