Barcelona are hoping to poach Isco from Real Madrid in 2018 by attempting to convince him not to extend his contract in the Spanish capital

The midfielder is currently negotiating an extension at the Bernabeu, even if he has yet to fully convince Zinedine Zidane.

And Goal understands that Barcelona are hoping to capitalise on uncertainty regarding his place as a starter by promising to make him the heir to Andres Iniesta in the heart of their midfield.


Luis Enrique is hoping to persuade the 24-year-old to follow in his footsteps, with the Barca boss leaving Madrid during his playing days to join Barcelona as a free agent in 1996.

The Catalans believe they have nothing to lose approaching Isco and would relish the opportunity to get one over Madrid president Florentino Perez, who has made overtures to Neymar, Iniesta and even Luis Suarez while they ply their trade at Camp Nou.

Barcelona have indicated to the Spain international that they have always rated him highly and only the presence of stalwarts such as Xavi and Iniesta in their line-up previously prevented them making a formal approach.

While revered by the Bernabeu faithful and having turned down opportunities from around Europe to leave in the past, Isco is aware that he faces limited playing time should he stay on at the club he joined from Malaga in 2013.

Barcelona are closely monitoring the situation and are aware of the possibility they might be able to nab him on a free transfer in 2018 by making early contact.

Okay..you are looking for someone in the team who shouts at his teammates? undecided
Lol. Byke... Let's be objective....
Forget haters coming here to compare lampard or whoever with iniesta... He's highly regarded by the football community as a football great, if not the game's finest midfielder.

This season, he has rarely led attack when we desperately need someone to do so. We know inesta is known for decision making and timely passes...we haven't seen so much of that this season when we need him most. You see the way messi has countlessly delivered barca out of embarrassment and shame... Iniesta doesn't even need to assist or score....just a defence splitting pass or some of his magic we've seen him muster times without number. I

Yes, Enrique ruined our midfield. But you just know that barca needs to look up to someone. Inesta is not just a great player, he's Barca's skipper and a LA masia product.... I just envy Sergio Ramos how he carries the madridiots on his shoulders when they need him most. Even when they play nonsense, you just see Ramos lead this team from the back...

What I'm saying is that Enrique hasn't done what he should with our midfield... But iniesta is not new to the barca system.... He's our skipper and our most experienced man in the middle, its just natural for players to look up to him when the system fails.

The midfield is not playing to its strength.

There is a reason we were linked with Nzonzi earlier this season.

Our midfielders now play as second wingers instead of as a closed unit as they are used to.

This system would only work if we had workhorses.

Enrique is asking our midfielders to only pass the ball to MSN and do defensive work.

Which is why Iniesta looks lost and why you think Rakitic changed the game.

The only thing he brought on was his defensive capability.


Our problems are still much and I don't think they will be solved until Sampaoli comes in next season.

This isn't Barcelona.

This is Messi FCccccccccccccc.cheesy
To be honest....iniesta was absent for a large part of this match. I credit Enrique for introducing rakitic. Despite the fact that Barca's midfield has been wack this season, I think iniesta is having the worst Season. This coupled with the fact that he's Barcelona's skipper has just really made me unimpressed.... However, it doesn't negate the fact that he's one of football's midfield great!

Today's game in my opinion also shows Barcelona's over reliance on the doggedness of MSN. Neymar's constant dribbling of ATM's players with those mazy runs, Suarez's indirect assist of rafinha's goal, Messi's anticipation to score from a freekick that he crossed into the 18.

In my opinion, Barca's defence did a lot better in the second half, Busquets also did lots of timely interventions...even though he made lots of misplaced passes. Our midfield is seriously low on confidence at the moment....and it puts my hope in a UCL turnaround against PSG in serious doubt....but our win against ATM might just add some confidence to this team...coupled with the fact that the second leg is at Nou Camp... Never underestimate the power of the Fans...

Bros, we can only play to win that match just to stake our pride as a big club. We are out of this year's UCL. This sort of thing happen when you have a silly coach who would field weak players and inconsistent formation in games that you need to approach with high intensity. We have been playing crap for the better of two seasons now, and consistent at it. We have been bailed by moments of individual brilliance and not by strength of the team or the coach's brilliance... I mean, who fields a useless player like A. Gomes leaving I. Rakitic on the bench, in a game that has the likes of M. Veratti and B. Matuidi in the opposition?
It seems impossible, but I actually think a comeback is possible if barca can score two goals in the first half...I have already given up on the coach...but the team has lots of quality up front... Neymar, Suarez and messi are 3 individually gifted players... I'd like to hope on that...

If it was in the days of Pedro, Sanchez/villa, and messi, I would have given up because the pressure will be on messi alond... But suarez and neymar can still bring a lot to the table...

I won't be pained if we lose, at the same time, I expect a fight from this team

He doesn't! After all he was the idiot that put us in this position!

I'm just hoping for just a lapse of concentration from PSG, so that MSN can pounce on!
We don't even need lapse of concentration from PSG because those guys crave champions league glory. What we need is pure genius of the MSN, and iniesta's creative play too. The rest of the team should just attack and defend simultaneously.

I miss pep by the way...the home game against chelsea where we played 2-2...he used 3 defenders, 3 midfielders and 4 forwards... Chelsea was lucky to win that match as messi lost that winning pk... I doubt if Enrique really can bring something out of his tactically empty head

The match between ac Milan and Barcelona during 12/13 UCL comes to mind if Barcelona can muster the resilience to advance in this year's champions league.

Personally, I dont believe Enrique has the tactical brilliance to turn things around... But this team is good enough to score as many goals as they can.

2 first half goals... 2 second half goals... Extra time... Golden goal... grin

If wishes were horses sha...
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by senorova(m): 2:06am On Feb 15, 2017
In my opinion, Barcelona has always had a possession football philosophy. Most coaches that have coached this team were once players of the barca system. This explains why the possession based football has become the barcelona trademark over the years.

In recent years, (past 9years precisely) only martino has gone trophyless...however, barca played strictly possession football under him. We lost to athletico on away goals and head to head in the UCL and liga respectively. I personally pitied Martino... We didn't win anything... But the barca trademark was preserved....

This explains the standard at Barcelona... We keep the ball to win the match...and eventually win trophies... Anything less is unacceptable. Other teams may win the trophy without any kind of philosophy or tactic... But the Barcelona blueprint is to possess at all times, and keep scoring to win trophies. Martino did keep to the style, but he won zilch. He even voluntarily resigned as he saw the board didn't have faith in him.


Enrique is quite an interesting case. Despite being a barca blood, Barca's blueprint does not reflect his tactics. He excellently guided barca to a treble in his first season...ardent observers of the Barcelona philosophy could observe how he needlessly rotated the team several times... A lot of folks got confused... But after he won that treble.. He did silence lots of his critics... But to be honest, MSN made Enrique! There were a number of ocassions where it was apparent that Enrique only cared about relying on MSN at the expense of the possession trademark that Barcelona is known for. The danger of this is that football is not a one man sport... the secret to a successful team is in teamwork... individual brilliance is just an icing on the cake. Real Madrid was largely unsuccessful under José mourinho because they played apart... There was no cohesion in their game play... They're enjoying more success under zidane just like under ancelotti because there's more possession, and feeder players are being given playing time....


Enrique's neglect of possession based play is an insult to the barca trademark... And this has been a long time coming. Tonight is only the beginning. When individual brilliance is not enough, tteamwork is what prevails...unfortunately, Enrique doesn't give a shit about teamwork

I have said it and will keep saying it, the only problem the igbos have is themselves.
They have so much potential as a tribe, but their hostility towards other tribes has put them at the receiving end of the negativities of tribalism.
