Who do you think will take #6? I think Busi should have kept #16 so he could switch to #6 now. #5 would have been fitting for Bartra.
I hope Iniesta keeps his number because I cannot imagine him with another number in a Barca shirt. For Spain it is different.

Do not know if it would be a good idea to give it to Samper. Pretty heavy burden.

I thought so, too. Somehow I don't find #5 fitting for Busquets. IMHO, Busquets should wear the #4, and possibly Rakitić #6. Or the other way around, to keep things simpler. Mascherano or Alba would be a good fit for the #5. I wouldn't mind seeing Bartra wear it, either, but I think Mascherano deserved it. He's got that Puyol-lion-like drive.

Puyol picked Busquets.

Does Xavi know Italian, or does Pirlo know Spanish... That's the question...

My guess is Pirlo knows a bit of Spanish, either from having Spanish speaking teammates or just picking up the basics as a second language. It's more common and useful for people to learn a few Spanish words than Italian words, unless you are going to live in Italy or have a genuine interest in the language/culture.

Gutted, was super exited watching the celebration, gutted with every Xavi frame...

What a roller coaster season this was, he even left the club like a boss!

Legend!

So....this thread is going to "Barca history" subforum...

I would leave it here until his contract officially expires, but afterwards that's where he'll go. Sad times, bit weird that the person most responsible for me following Barca in the first place won't be there anymore. But surely after retirement he will be back in some form.

I think the fact that we play a bit different 'Post Vilanova and Guardiola' helps this transition. A wee bit like it was when Ronaldinho left. . . . . .maybe

I I basically wanted to point out that it will be kinda tough to decide who should get Xavi's number.

Thiago

He's going to be presented as an Al Sadd player this Thursday.

I think xavi drank too much. Neymar, Iniesta and rakitic are trying to get him down most probably so that he wouldn't get hurt.. but legend didn't listen obviously.

Neymar looks even more drunk though.. not sure what he was trying to do lol
