Barca are probably the most hated club in the world. The whole football fanbase goes crazy when Barca get knocked out of cl. The general football fan even prefers Real Madrid to Barca. So who gives a fuck at this point.
I agree 100 % with you, Hamzah.
FC Barcelona should adapt a Spartan approach to their doings in the future; worry about the clubs fans, the clubs success and the clubs future. Behave within the rules, establish relationships of mutual benefits but still lead every dealing and negotiation with one higher purpose - The wellbeing and success of the club.
People hated on Pep's Barca who delivered the best fucking football the world has (probably) ever seen. People hated on MSN, on Ronaldinho and Deco (when they started to bring us trophies, that is, even though they will not admit to it and use past players as 'references' to compare and tell us how 'Ronnie was a true gentleman, not like so and so'), people hated on Puyol, Xavi and talking about Ovreboe and tapping-up with the hilarious (not) pun 'Barca DNA'. Fuck other fans, there is something wrong if we are not hated for our ambition to be the biggest club in the world. Haters mean we are doing something right.
On-topic: I soooo prefer Malcom over Willian, simply because he has all the attributes of a 'younger' Willian with an apparent higher ceiling for potential growth - The fact that Monchi was willing to put 35 mil euros on the table for him should be an indication of how big his potential is. Who better to groom him into a beast winger than Barca?
