Bants aside, mehn that dude achieved no be small, That him connection with Pendu na die, Def one of the best LBs in history
Hopefully we'll win at least one trophy to use to send forth busquets next season when his contract expires
Marcelo issa gem, even tho he's a rival... I have massive respect for the man.

And a big Amen to that prayer.

This is what makes Madrid successful. They don't care about your legendary status. Money first before your legendary status.
And who are the highest paid in the same Madrid?

So, he should be paid more because of his past exploits?
Not much. But surely shouldn't be 140k. It kinda speaks badly for those who'd be looking to devote themselves to the club for a longer period.

Not break the bank, but at least.. Give something reasonable, except for wage cut reasons.

Nah it's simple maths. Value is not as high as before.
Shouldn't amount to that astute disrespect, still.

Man has given his all, well above any name there except for Pique.

This is how FCB's wage structure should look like

De Jong- 180k
Aubameyang- 180
Depay-170
Ferran- 120
Busquets- 140
Alba- 140
pique- 100
Araujo- 150
Pedri- 95
Gavi- 80
MATS- 120
Una day disrespect Busi too much sha. Imagine asking the gaffer to take a 140k/week, bar reduction.. Just 20k above terrain and even below Depay..

Nah.. It's insulting!!

Same here, I need reviews for individual players in the Spanish team. I haven't been able to see many UNL games with Barca players.
Awesome01:
From the matches already played in the Nations League, which of our(Barca) players in the competition are performing well and which are below standards?

I've not been able to see much, but there have been reports that Gavi and Eric Garcia were excellent for Spain, what about others?
Barca players have been excellent for the national team except for Ferran and Braithwaite.

Gavi, I'm sure you've seen enough in the media showering him with praises and all. He's been excellent, driving forward and leading productive attacks.

Eric hasn't played many minutes but the times he's been called on, he has delivered massively.


Ferran has been a shadow and is really becoming a kinda liability except in the last game when he gave an assist.

Depay and Jong have been excellent for the Dutch team. FDJ seem to prefer to thrive as a DM that drives balls forward with runs and not the Busi kinda that can playmake with one touch. For a team like Barca that plays with wingers, I'm not sure how he can fit with that style as a single pivot since that'd be leaving too much space in case of counter. But Netherland has Blind and that one is almost a defender even though he functions as a dm, too. Depay is showing traits of someone who'd rather play as a second striker than a main one or a winger.

Busquest is like fine wine for Spain. He manages the tempo well and sure dictate plays better than even Rodri. Alba.. Well, we know his capacity.

For Martin, I think he knows his time is done cos he's the least ranked forward even in Denmark. Might do some flicks and pass but that's where it ends. Nothing productive and of course, has been barren in front of goal.

jpmoriarti:
Why dont he take his stupid pay cut elsewhere? He is not adding anything to the team. He is a liability. Not good going forward or defending or mid-fielding.

Yes he has been at the club for 16yrs, so I understand the emotional attachment but he should realise Barca has way too much average players. We can't keep renewing more. And we're even signing more average dawgs.

It is the frustration all around that is targeting Sergi Roberto as the scape goat. He is not a solution to any of our problem. I dare say he is part of the problem.
Roberto is better than anybody on our right back right now offensively and maybe defensively... Including Alves, age being the problem.

I get that alternatives would be better but insulting him when there are others wasting away should not be tolerated.

Saying extending Roberto contract means I am obsessed with Spanish players ?

I am obsessed with Spanish players but I don’t want Barca to sign azpi and Alonso ?

So it’s Roberto fault that semedo couldn’t do his job cheesy cheesy

The 8-2 lost almost all the players where bad

Alves should be our backup RB at 39 nah
The guy actually said Roberto was one of the reasons we lost 8-2.

Some people and unfathomable reasoning.

I can just imagine how that week will be. grin
But it means they will not partake in the preseason activities, which is a disadvantage.
If only they'll play the Preseason and not air it.

I know there's a whole lot of logical reason why this wouldn't be able to happen but it'll be so fun!!!

Read this somewhere and felt I should ask you what y'all think!!

What'd be that rule that if implemented on club summer/winter signing that'd be the craziest, kinda bizarre, yet fun?


Simply put... How to make the transfer window better?
I'd go first!!


Ans - I'd suggest that Fifa/UEFA ban football clubs from announcing/confirming their summer signings before the season starts. Instead, on the weekend before the season starts, there should be a massive TV show where every club parades their new signings. A whole summer of gossip, and rumors that leads to one huge night!

Box Office!!!!



Imagine seeing Messi unveiling for PSG last season when rumors and gossip of his staying rocked the net. Or Ronaldo returning to Man Utd, in an unexpected move.

Lmao. I feel this would crazily fun if it happens!!

This is my problem. You are looking at the Philosophy first not the results. Sorry, but that's not smart.
I wonder how you expect results when there's no understanding to make it happen. How do you go to war without first mapping a strategy to confront opposition?

You need to first present your understanding of the game before even talking about possible results. Only then can you even map a proficient technique to win.

Now Austria has had an improved game entirely since Ragnick took over, staying above Croatia and France; two heavyweights that played in the finals of the last WC. But Nah, your SMARTNESS won't less you see that... It's rather focused on seeing results when the problem wasn't the gaffer that explicitly has a strategy but a lazy bunch of guys that make a disgraceful team!!

And yeah... I think anything less than 150m for DeJong would be an insult. If we are going to sell, then it should depict nothing short of a truck load of respect.

Look at this dead barka fan calling another team a problem. Is your club not finished? Manyoo want to take your best midfielder away so you can see money to pay player salary and you are insulting them.

Are you alright? How about we wait until after a dozen or so games? The results should prompt you to look at tactics/strategy, not the other way around. I mean how's he doing it? If you like squeeze hard, if nothing commot over a period of time, you are just another journeyman coach who despite racking up losses repeatably tells us, 'oh, at least i have a philosophy'. Shut up and get us the fucking results.
It's a simple case.


The idea and philosophy were always there. The players were just too lazy asf to execute it.


Ragnick wasn't the problem. United was!!

And you wonder why Ten Hag wants the Man Utd board to sign him at all cost. The man knows what Frankie can do and wants him by any means necessary as a core to build Mam Utd midfield on.
Honestly, I think what he needs to do right now is master that in-space ball receiving that Busquests has. Then progress his play as a deep playmaker since that's Barca's style. FDJ issa nice player please.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by FirstbornWds: 8:07am On Jun 09, 2022
Did we see that Frankie's run that led to a goal for NDL last night? Just watched the game this morning and I really think we've got a gem in hand.
