Laporta continuing Barto's shameful social media bullying of players. Barto was a real creep to players and played all sorts of mind games with them and Laporta is just the same.
"On an eye-watering ?5m-a-year, Barcelona have fiercely told De Jong to slash his mega-money salary or leave, after agreeing an initial ?63million deal with Man Utd. But the midfield maestro is owed ?17m in backdated wages, due to waived salary and bonuses during the coronavirus pandemic, and De Jong wants that figure settled before entertaining the prospect of a drop in salary or a switch elsewhere.
Now, Man Utd legend Neville has released a scathing assessment of Barcelona's dealings, outing the club as bullies. He tweeted: "De Jong should consider legal action v Barcelona and all players should be behind him!
"A club spending fortunes on new players whilst not paying the ones they have under contract their full money is immoral and a breach. @FIFPRO should be all over bullying like this and stop it."

We've already seen these quotes. Gary 7NILle is a clown and knows fuck all. Not sure why anyone would take him seriously.
The media continue to paint Barca as some evil club breaking every rule going whilst totally ignoring City and PSG making a mockery of FFP for years. When teams/players don't bend for PL clubs, they throw their toys out the pram.
This has nothing to do with FFP. FFP is a joke and corrupt. This has nothing to do with Neville who is a moron. This has to do with Laporta use of social media and media to do players dirty just like Barto did. Laporta could have kept Messi. Laporta is an idiot playing dirty games with players just like Barto did .... remember Suarez? Laporta is just like Barto gambling 150 plus millions on players while continuing to do nothing about the incredible debt. This is Barto's game plan... nothing has changed...

How did Laporta use social media to bully players? He simply said in order for Frenkie to stay, he has to cut his wages.

Laporta, our big lord and savior. All these levers, still not enough. Maybe he can bully some more players into taking paycuts?

Taking paycut is not unheard of, Madrid's players took a 30% paycut in the 20/21 season, I think, for example, many other clubs have done the same.
It matters how they approach it.

De Jong, Ter Stegen, Pique and Lenglet already took a 75% paycut in 20/21.
What's incredible is the Madrid paycut was 10-20% across all sports sections (Football A and B team, Basketball) simultaneously.
No deferment, pure paycut. While Barcelona had to sign deferrals and use Spain's ERTE scheme for Covid after the players collectively refused.
Players like Modric then had a further paycut a year or so later.
And now here we are, drowning having to pay back all these sums eventually.

Deferred wages. They didn't take a straight paycut like Madrid players.
Barca tried to play nice with our players. That time is over after they took advantage of our dumb, simpleton, corrupt ex-President.
