FirstbornWds:Omo, if Messi and Lewandoski played in the same team and Lewandoski maintained this ridiculous level of finishing, he would definitely have won more than 2 Golden boots. Definitely. Messi created an outrageous quantity of chances for Suarez but Suarez Suarezed. Unfortunately. |

Kilishihunter:I think us being financially limited in the transfer window has advantages, players want to join us, not to earn big money but to be part of history. Under Bartomeau Barca was making mad revenue and man flexed that in persuading players to join Barca like Greizman, Dembele, gave Messi and Suarez ridiculously enormous wages and gave big wages to Busquets, Pique and co because we had the money and to avoid other teams enticing them renewed their contracts with huge wages. Now, you have to be interested in the project that's why we didn't get Wijnaldum, that's why I absolutely love Depay and I don't want him to leave. Wanting to join Barca for money is not bad but for us now financially, wanting to join Barca to build a legendary history is better. The only club that has a bigger pull than Barca now is Madrid and Man utd if they enter UCL and are competitive. A big club is a big club |

FirstbornWds:This is possible because of one reason and one reason only, Lewandoski said since May that he wants to join Barca. We are not bidding for him, he chose Barca. Same with Aubameyang, Raphinha and Dembele. Choosing Barca right now means you want to play for Barca and considering Barca's well publicized wage challenges, in your desire to join Barca you will also have to agree to lesser wages. So while Alemany's idea of selling Barca's assets is cool, the transfer ish isn't wizardry it's an age long strategy that Bayern, Ajax, Madrid and Barca under Txiki Begirigstain utilised to sign players. |

Kilishihunter:Your opinion is appreciated, but right now that both of us are talking Lewandoski is better and Lewandoski has been better than Suarez for almost 4 years now. In fact, Suarez at his peak is not much better than Lewandoski. Not much... |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by IKON360(m): 7:43pm On Jul 18, 2022 |
Kilishihunter:Lewandoski's goal scoring ability is frightening, 40 goals in all tournaments for the past 4 years abi 5 years abeg. Benzema nah. If Lewandoski had these numbers in Barca playing with Messi, he would have a Ballon D or by now. It's absolutely ridiculous. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by IKON360(m): 2:01pm On Jul 18, 2022 |
Did someone say Benzema is better than Lewandoski? Only by small thing is Benzema better than Kane, let's not do this to Benzema, he is a good striker but he is not better than Lewandoski please. 11 Likes |

Kilishihunter:So far so good, he has supported Xavi, let Xavi pay back this show of faith with winning trophies. It will be great for us. |

After all these things we have done in the transfer window, there really is no excuse for Xavi not to win at least 2 trophies and at the barest minimum reach UCL semis. We have the attacking fire power, the midfield isn't so bad and our defence is looking hopeful with the additions of Christensen, Azpilicueta hopefully and Kounde hopefully, if Xavi goes trophiless again he ought to be sacked because this transfer window is a huge investment risk Barca has taken to position ourselves for more financial upturn in the future, Lewandoski is earning nearly 9m, Dembele and Raphinha 6m, Aubameyang 6 - 7m Christensen and Kessie that same 6m or so and so on. winning trophies will go a long long way to posturing ourselves as a worthwhile investment for investors and will also boost our international appeal once again and boost the sale of Barca merchandise that suffered during Covid 19 and has not improved since. We need to win trophies, it's a do or die situation right now and winning the league and reaching UCL semis will do wonderful things for Lewandoski's hopes of being a serious contender for Ballon D or. 5 Likes |

Kilishihunter:The opinion of one of my guys is that Barca isn't actually that broke but we have exceeded out salary limits. It's one thing to have money, you can buy players unfortunately even with your money, you are not to pass a particular salary limit. Maybe that's the situation Barca find themselves in. Maybe that's why we didn't go for Haaland and instead went for Auba and other forwards that can willingly accept lower wages in the short term and get higher wages in the future. |

timay1:Fought tooth and nail and still signed two new CBs? The meaning of fighting tooth and nail has somehow changed. You see how PSG fought to keep Mbappe, they didn't sign any replacement, you see how Bayern are fighting to keep Lewandoski, you see how Liverpool are "fighting" to keep Mane? They have signed Nunez... Garcia was still at Man City and Ake and Dias were bought for a combined over 100m 1 Like |

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by IKON360(m): 10:07pm On Jun 13, 2022 |
timay1:For me Garcia is a great passer of the ball and a very meagre defender as well. Like Alaba, great at passing but defending can bring tears to your eyes sometimes. However, Garcia was still at Man City when Ake and Dias were bought, says a lot. Guardiola didn't believe in him a lot. And what's the meaning of tbf? I thought the abbreviation was tbh or tbfh? |

OhBritannia:Of all people to talk about it's clown Ferran? You guys should forget that guy, he is hopelessly average. I can list 15 players within his age range that are more useful than him. What is even the good thing you people see in this Ferran Torres? He doesn't dribble, he has the worse conversion rate in the club, he doesn't create for others, he is not fast, you can't even rely on him for the barest minimum. Omo you people should forget this guy |

XaviNesta:Some people call it hype but I don't know sha, but once Barca fans start hailing you on social media, or Madrid fans two things, either your form explodes or your form explodes. Those clubs are true social media giants. It's the same thing Man utd would have been if that club was a performing club |

There have been very few players better than Vinicus Jnr this season, very few even those that are older than better than him. This season Vini was phenomenal and that is the basis for calculating player value, seasonal performances. |

OkpaNsukkaisBae:This season, Vini was better. The only under 21 player better than Vini jnr this season was Mbappe and player value is season by season calculated. Not past records or performances |

Kilishihunter:Guy look at this Madrid team, some of them were when Mourinho was manager. From that time till now, they have been balling, some others have been pretending to ball but look at them 2 trophies in a season that we could have won at least 1. See how Courtois has been among the best gks in Europe, Alba is better than the two LBs Madrid have, Busquets is better than Casemiro, and on and on and on. But look at them winning trophies here and there. Guy e dey pain me. Fati is better than Vinicus jnr and Rodrygo but these two, their performances this season have been nothing short of heroic. The one good season Vinicus jnr has, he is among the best left wingers in Europe only person better is maybe Mbappe yet as at September last year, the same Vini jnr had less than 6 goals in 3 years or 2 years at Madrud. Guy e dey pain me die. We for win this Europa league, I wanted us to win it or Copa Del Rey unfortunately... 1 Like |

I wonder what consolation my fellow Barca fans will give themselves. They will keep blaming Bartomeau as if Barca is the only club in depth in Europe. I think only Man City, PSG and one other mid club in EPL are the only clubs without depth but watch Barca fans assume that they can't compete or win any sensible thing because of Bartomeau, that resigned 2 years ago |

FirstbornWds:Messi went trophiless twice at Barca. Gerard Martino and Setien. Also from the beginning of the season to the mid, we were without many players that could have massively improved our fortunes. Also like under Xavi we started struggling badly after the international break. But you won't remember these things o |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by IKON360(m): 11:22am On May 28, 2022 |
joviegghead:Quote me, don't be scared. After Messi and Greizman who else did Koeman have that Xavi didn't have? Mention them, you can't because there isn't any one else and yet Greizman was loaned out and Laporte used Messi's renewal as campaign point and still didn't renew him. The Pedri that Xavi is enjoying was brought in by Koeman, the Gavi that Xavi is enjoying also by Koeman, Araujo became a starter under Koeman too. Who has Xavi even added to Barca's team? Jutgla has been sold, Abde no hope, Mingueza to be sold, Balde to be forgotten for Marcos Alonslow and on and on and on. The people Xavi is developing are all products of Koeman. All of them. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by IKON360(m): 11:06am On May 28, 2022 |
FirstbornWds:Koeman had a slightly better squad last season than he had this season, and last season, he was still let down by the individual brilliance of players like Roberto, Lenglet and king Bumtiti. Also last season, numerous times we needed a 9 and you remember that Dembele was at those times deployed as a 9 to varying degrees of success. Then when this season started, our top 3 goal scorers last season were either injured, loaned out or had no contract. Our wingers were injured and all the players one could rely on were injured too. Blaming Koeman for not having what Xavi was provided with is unfair to be honest. Yes Xavi has tried to be honest but if Koeman had what Xavi had by January, I seriously doubt that we would go trophiless this season. And that thing you said about Copa Del Rey being about players' individual brilliance is false and rubbish talk, Greizman, Messi, De Jong and Alba all had brilliant attacking performances, Pique, Mingueza and I think Araujo or so had an absolutely impeccable shift at the back and Busquets enjoyed himself maximally in the midfield. Or you have short term memory too? Koeman did not disband Suarez, Koeman didn't have the power to disband anybody. Why didn't he disband Puig or Pedri like he initially wanted to? And if you read any of Suarez' interviews on his leaving Barca in none did he blame Koeman, he and Messi even Dani Alves all blamed Barca board. Not Koeman. Where TF did you even get that kind of false information? And Suarez was last season, De Jong, Depay were this season or you have forgotten? You are a Koeman hater, baseless arguments sha. That's how so many of you on this group were also Valverde haters and now it turns out that Valverde is still Barca's best coach in recent memory. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by IKON360(m): 12:07am On May 27, 2022 |
FirstbornWds:Who deprived Barca of a proper coach and structure? Bartomeau? Suarez was sold, guess who he was replaced with? NOBODY! Greizman was loaned out, Trincao was loaned out, Dembele and Fati were injured, Collado was not registered and the wingers Barca had were Gavi and Demir and later Dest. Koeman basically had to beg the board to get a 9 and from making noise about Joao Felix and such, nobody was signed except Luuk De Jong. Or you have forgotten these bits of entertaining information? When Pedri was injured and the midfielders we had were De Jong, Busquets and Nico Gonzalez? Abi na short term memory dey do that Barca under Xavi played their best matches when our injured players came back and all the kinds of players that Koeman was screaming that he needed when they were provided for Xavi, Xavi went on that winning streak? Koeman wanted a winger and a 9 because we had no 9 and all our wingers were injured, Xavi got Ferran Torres face of movement 2022 and Aubameyang, Traore and fit Dembele who finished the season with 13 assists yet you open your mouth and say Barca didn't have a structure and a coach. The same team that won Copa del Rey last season, half of them were tossed aside this season by either injuries or loan. You remember when Pique and Araujo were injured under Koeman this season, when even Braithwaite was injured earlier this season? Or you have short term memory of convenience? You won't win trophy but you will celebrate qualifying for UCL what kind of disgusting consolation is that? Koeman fucking won a trophy, qualified for UCL and had two players win massive individual awards under his coaching time. Look at Xavi, pursuing Azpilicueta, Alonso and not getting rid of Roberto that we absolutely and completely don't need. But no, keep blaming Bartomeau soon you will blame Sandro Russel or Joan Gamper |

The team that Mourinho won Conference league with is not better than this Barca team in any ramification too. Rangers team that reached UEL finals isn't better than this Barca team but this Barca team went trophiless. Guy, if shame no dey catch you, e dey catch me.

FirstbornWds:Alright this is a fairer assertion. I can agree with this. I don't think you will continue to blame Bartomeau if we don't win a substantial trophy next season. Because at that point it's not Bartomeau again. Even though for me, immediately a president leaves nobody should keep blaming him for what's bad two years after he left. 5 Likes |
