In a recent interview with Victor Font, this is what he has to say:
"If I'm someone who wants to become president, I have to be a member and wealthy enough to be able to put up all the bank guarantees that are needed—15 percent of the budget. Taking round numbers if this year's budget was €700 million that would be €100 million, split it up amongst 20 directors is around €5 million per head. Those are the only requirements you need.
"You end up having good cules, good FC Barcelona fans, wealthy enough to put up the bank guarantees as directors, but they lack the relevant experience to govern the club. The track record they have in managing a multinational of the world of football is questionable."
Font mentions the club's vice president of football Jorde Mestre, the guy in July who was "200 percent" sure that Neymar Jr. was staying with Barcelona, as an example. "He knows as much about football as any member in the street could have. He's not a football guy, with a background in football yet he's a vice president of FC Barcelona."

That says it all, IMO. And this isn`t the first time that someone said that our board doesn`t know shit about football. Messi said it, Neymar etc..
Market is crazy? Who stopped them to sign Asensio? Market is crazy if you are dumb. Because it means you go for the obvious choices that are overpriced.
