I doubt we will buy Pogba.
Enough big clubs are after him. Not to mention that Juve will be getting the biggest UCL payday, despite not winning, so they will have enough cash to even buy a few of our players if they want this term

That would be great really. His coming may unsettle the team, he can't be put on the bench, and I don't see Iniesta on the bench at least for now.
Let's give room for the guys from La Masia to prove their worth.

Which players do you think should be the three midfielders behind the untouchable 'MSN' if we sign Pogba and Gundogan. List of our Midfielders would be: Busquets, Iniesta, Rakitic, Rafinha, Sergi Roberto, Pogba, Gundogan and Denis Suarez if he is recalled from Sevilla this summer.

Why do we need to spend a fortune on Pogba when there are many homegrown players who are very good if given enough playing time. Whay happens to players like Suarez, Halilovic, Rafinha, Roberto, samper and co?

Nice seeing baba Puyol with the boys.
Congratulations to Pedro.

Like seriously? the linesman did that? No wonder Alves was complaining that they all hate Brazil!
This Conmebol people are just stupid! they gave Neymar a 4 match ban!
From what I saw in the highlight I watched, the shot did not look intentional! Neymar was already in motion to kick the ball before the ref blew the whistle! They said he wanted to headbutt someone, but I didn't see it in the video!
This South American refs should be ashamed of themselves, why are they allowing the games to be so physical? is it war they are fighting?

So Neymar is out of the tournament? That's serious really.

Laporta: "I love Messi. He is like my son. He makes Barca win and he knows how to humiliate teams. You know, THAT team!"

@emboldened, Neymar humiliates players, while Messi humiliates teams. Yet, na Neymar them dey accuse.

Lol

ddippset:
To be sincere Messi does it competitively and seriously while Neymar does it playfully and mockingly. That's why they get mad at Neymar. For instance, Messi nutmegs you and goes straight to score, while Neymar nutmegs and and probably tries to come round you again. LOL. make I talk true Neymar does his to embarrass opponents. But I enjoy it a lot, maybe because I am on his side.

Jay jay did it to catch fun, Dinho did it to entertain fans, Messi does it to get result. Whichever way you do it bro, as long as it's never a law not to do it, I don't see any big deal in it. You are only penalised for committing offence on the pitch and not to show the stuff you are made off. Remember CR7 vs Ashely Cole in Euro then? We all applauded him as many have said he could never dribble one of the best defenders then.

philfearon:
I guess because A country is losing a war,their fighters/warriors should be pitied nonetheless by the winning country!
I use to think that Messi was the most kicked player until Neymar came to Barca.Heck,there was even one the nigga left the ball and maliciously went and kicked Neymar...what did he get? a pat in the back by the referee!
If I am Neymar,I will make sure I continue disgracing those reta.rds till they learn how to show respect...
If common sense(even though its not common) were to be applied,when is the best time to show off Ur skills? is it when the pressure of the match is on every one and no one wants to make silly mistake to gift the opponent opportunity? or when u have less Pressure on u?
Neymar dey pity them self..I guess he is still afraid.....Take them on,delete them; whichever skill is available, use it and destroy them.. You didn't get to your level by pitying opponents... Useless them...Most Europeans are always Jealous cuz they can't dribble or showcase skills like the South Americans(Iniesta is an exception)..

Bro, thanks for this.
We still all cherish Okocha till today just because of those skills even though he didn't win much. Everyone talks about 'Dinho because of those exceptional skills he used to entertain us with irrespective of the scoreline. I could remember a player got injured when dribbled by Iniesta two seasons ago. So why the fuss about Neymar entertaining the fans after the game is won. The guy never start self, make dem go get ready.

marqueetim:
Fellow barca fans, Neymar don't just do that he makes gestures too. You can read about the atletico match in the CDR, that was why Juanfran mocked him with the 7-1. In essense he is expected to get to the top first before doing that. Many captains and coaches will not vote him for ballon d'or if he continues drawing the hatred of the opposition.

I am not sure you watched some of our matches against the likes of Athletico Madrid, Bilbao where Neymar was kicked form start to finish without the refs doing anything. If you did, maybe you would have gotten an answer. I guess he's still human with blood running through his veins. Hence the gestures.

dmcdad:
Abi oooooo. I brought the "go-down-low" case up and he turned a blind eye to it. The one Di Maria did to Puyol. Was he ever criticised? Na wa ooooo. People can be hypocritical sha.

I can still Remeber how haters used it against us for long. Some even said na d skill retire baba and we no vex. Make dem leave the boy alone jere.

dmcdad:
Exactly! And frankly, Enrique f**k up to blame Neymar publicly. No matter what, you must protect your star players as much as possible. Things like that dey make players feel valued, not just about increasing one's wages.

Lucho f**k up really, but I want to believe he only did it to calm the situation. And the fact is, Neymar is not done yet. They'd rather get used to it because they are gonna see more of the guy's skills as he gets better with age.

dmcdad:
Then it's the job of the refs to give such a player his rightful protection.

If Ronaldo show boats against Pique in an el classico that's already won by Madrid and gets past him, would Krasid and his cohorts allow people rest? Would he come here and criticise his idol for a skilful show to entertain his fans? God hates hypocrisy!

nonsoroyalty:
Haha even if na ronaldo do am I swear I won't even insult him stuffs like that are what makes it entertaining as for enrique and xavi they are spanish offcourse they would say that show me another outsider that hated what neymar did

If jay jay Okocha could do it in England without any noise raised, what's now the issue with spain?.

dmcdad:
Shut up! The last time I checked, skills are a part of the game. Because you have internet, you think you can post whatever you like, right? When Di Maria gave Puyol the famous "go-down-low", was any insult directed at him, or was he termed "disrespectful"? Nonsense!

Many cules here have time replying him after he has recovered from the shock of the past season. It's no more Messi, now it's Neymar simply because he's now on same level as his god (CR7). His posts are just so funny most times really.

homesteady:
I thought they were sensible naaa

So true! I was so frustrated

Maybe you didn't know some guys once argued that Mikel was the best midfielder in EPL the year he was called the best passer based on the number of passes he gave not minding 90% was backward and meaningless. You go laugh tire ehn.

taiocol:
Top three
Ronaldo ,Messi and Suarez'

Maybe you wanted to type: Ronaldo, Bale and Benzema which would have been well understood.

mencade5:
wetin ronaldo sabi?

No be to sit inside 18 yard box to wait for pass before he go tap score goal?

You get time sha!

dmcdad:
You telling me all these like I am an outsider.

You didn't even mention Ronaldo's ordeal vs Cordoba. By default, the supposed ban (as stipulated by law) is between 8-12 match-ban. But how many did he get? Just 2!

Even the one you talked about at The Camp Nuo last season, he was supposed to be banned for 4-6 matches as stated by the LFP president. But then, we all know how it ended. Nothing happened! Need I mention how his yellow card was illegally revoked so he could play against Sevilla?

The truth is; even the LFP president can't stand against Madrid, not to mention the RFEF. I could remember earlier this season when the La Liga best players award were given to the respective winners after the supposed nominations, the LFP president complained bitterly how unfair it was that Madrid players scooped manority of the award albeit finishing the league in 3rd position. He added that Atletico players did better in many of the categories they contested against. Imagine if LFP president was powerless, even to come out and complain publicly, then who else wanna fight the power of Perez?

Upon all that, coupled with all the propaganda they come up with every now and then, it is still to their amazement that we won The treble (the second time). Something they are yet to do in their rich history. That tells you there is absolutely something (many things) special about this club named "FCBarcelona"

Més cue un Club.
Visca el Barça!

PS: They wanna start another controversy, using the Depor game as basis. Suspecting match fixing. These useless Madead people no go just leave Barça alone sha. Na wa ooooo!

Not forgetting that the only league they have won in the last 7 seasons was not without many poor officiating and outrageous decisions such as awarding a PK for a foul committed outside the box. Even mr Jose admitted the ref was blind.
They can only try, but cannot succeed.

dmcdad:
Mtchew... Na today?

Abi ooooo. We are used to it already. They always try their luck in distracting him whenever he's doing really great, and we know where the strings are being pulled.

confistified:
dats hw Ronaldo has been celebrating since his days in man u

You mean he only celebrated when he scored and got angry when Rooney and co scored? That's serious then!

mcdreeezy:
I remember that no. 6 very well. Krasid used to say that a lot

And where is that Krasid now?

Alves: "I don't know if this is the end of my dream. I was happy here and I am happy here. I will always be one of you." #fcblive


.... and you will always remain one of the greats!

We are yet to see Krasid here and he's somewhere on a thread debating Ronaldo again.

I support leaving the thread as it is.

Buffon stopped MSN from raping Juve last night and I wish he make the Balon d'or three for such a wonderful performance.

Messi
Neymar
Buffon

Abi I no talk well ni?

honeric01:
Its a thing of joy supporting a club like FC Barcelona.. i almost lost my voice yesterday at the view center when we regained our lead..

The anti-Barcelona atmosphere is just too thick in Nigeria (my area maybe?).. Why do some Nigerians (most?) hate successful people when they are not the one? is this attitude healthy? does this attitude not show the kind of person we are as a country?

When they equalized, the noise was just too much..but something surprised me yesterday, one of the most vocal guys in there yesterday was a R.Madrid fan and he kept rooting for Barcelona.. i was surprised and even though they kept mocking him for supporting a rival club, he maintained his support and waited till the cup was handed to us.

I respect that guy, only few people could have done what he did.

I am happy we have shut alot of noise makers up and also internal doubters.

we can be allowed to enjoy the glory for now.. we deserve it!

Congrats to us all irrespective of how you saw the coach and some of the players..congrats!

it's not only your area, maybe almost everywhere in the country. It's understandable if a madrid fan was against Barca winning, but what can we say about Chelsea(the loudest), Man u, Arsenal and just anyone that does not even know what football is.
Even after there was a clear foul in the Juve box, neymar's goal cancelled, some guys were still shouting Barca were doing their usual ojoro and you wonder what kind of person he really is.

eyoniggar:
Great game indeed. To me, it was a walk-over as presumed. Congrats to Xavi, bowing out with such a great archievement, Congrats also to Suarez and Neymar winning their first UCL trophy, Congrats to Vermaleen winning his first Treble with just a single game played, and congtats also to the young lads on the bench. Congratulations to FC Barca and Congrats to all the faithful Cules here, we love us all.


@sebod, I like your spirit, no pitying nonsense.

Thanks bro, congratz!

yourangel:
I must say that I'm thankful to one of the world's greatest players, Cristiano Ronaldo, for posing a challenge to Leo Messi, before the whole world. That Ronaldo's statement of, "I want to match Messi's number of Ballon d'Or awards," paraphrased, woke up the sleeping giant in Messi, whose game and hunger completely changed thereafter.

That statement has come back to haunt Ronaldo by rendering him trophyless, whilst Messi is on the verge of a sextuplet, and has already bagged the following three major awards in the coming months:

1. La Liga Player of the Year 2015

2. UEFA Player of the Year 2015

3. FIFA Ballon d'Or 2015 (fifth time)

A lesson for us all: don't be too excited to utter words that would motivate your direct competition. It would put you at a competitive disadvantage.

A very big congratulations to our amiable coach, Luis Enrique, Players, Club President and Staff, and all Cules around the world. We are back at the top, once again. A big hug to all Cules here on Nairaland! Una too much!!

Thanks for this.
Now I can wish with no sentiments;
Messi
Buffon and
Neymar for that Balon d'or

Since Suarez's golden boot last season was not enough to earn him a place in the eufa XI, why should it or any pichichi earn CR7 in the top three?.

Now I expect Krasid to come from his hideout since he has failed to show up since.(CR7 fan boy)

May the Lord bless the board and the coach for bringing in Rakitic and Suarez to ease the burden off Messi.
May the Lord bless Pique for getting the best out of himself again.
May the Lord bless us the fans for believing in the coach despite varied opinions.
May the Lord bless the team in general.

Congratxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Yesssssssssss! We did it. Up barca

I hope our missed chances will not cost us sha!

dmcdad:
Matchday! Make hbp no go worry me today oooooo this one wey my heart dey raise like say na Hussein Bolt dey run. And match never start yet.

Calm down bro, trust our boys to do the needful.

yourangel:
Having analysed the data you provided, here's how they stand:

Carlos has a success rate of 15.84%

Ronaldinho has a success rate of 15.15%

Messi has a success rate of 9.09%

Ronaldo has a success rate of 8.50%

Verdict:

It has been mathematically proven that Ronaldo is the worst free-kick taker. Thank you!

Hehehehe and you think Krasid will take this from you ehn? Trsut him to come up with his stats.

eyoniggar:
Chai, Juve to chop like 4 goals. I pity them in advance, no complacency intended.

You share my feelings bro, I no dey pity them at all. I don even talk am say na 5 dem go chop. Pity after all the rubish in the media? No room for that abeg. They must pay for it big time.
