A few years ago I was under the impression that it's irresponsible for a Barca president to give long contracts to players over 29 yo. But I guess people change their opinion once they see themselves in their desired position of power.
In other news: http://deportes.elpais.com/deportes/2012/12/18/actualidad/1355860307_365466.html . And probably that's not the end, seeing that he's learning a lot from his friend Florentino. Too bad that he didn't learned to keep 50% of the players' image rights.

Surprising that Puyol will be staying on. But hey, we're 'more than a club'!
