  1. According to BeIN Dembelé to Barça for 120+30, 110+40 according to Barcelona press. God, I hope he's good.
  2. I saw him on TV last year and he scored. He has an unbelievably punachable face http://img.uefa.com/imgml/TP/players/14/2015/324x324/250074001.jpg That's definitely a FM regen face.
  3. Looking back, I think Barça's 1994-1995 team was the worst, even worse than the early 2000s sides. Only Figo and Guardiola held that s*** together.
  4. I kinda limited it to after 1990 - I was really a bairn before that and memories too hazy.
  5. Worst Barça XI Busquets Sr. Sánchez-Jara Chygrynsky Cristanval Bogarde Petit Rochemback Prosinecki Alfonso Maxi López Dugarry Bench: Rustu, Dehu, Amunike, Gerard, Hleb, Vermaelen, Douglas Henrique, Keirrison miss by the fact they not even played a single game in our shirt
  6. Riviere certainly was not making a step up when moving from Monaco to NUFC, hence the high wages he must be in.
  7. We did, and then appointed a new guy that's making the same shit signings.
  8. Yeah that's my only but. Rather we signed him than Paulinho though. Keita, now that would be interesting. Anyhow, I think I'll switch off from our transfer window shit show until September 1st.
  9. Rumor that we are going for Goretzka, after our DoF was seen going to a Schalke game this weekend. Seri link seems to be fading now.
  10. We are looking for a sale, not a loan. So probably a BS rumor. Lad's got potential but he lacks composure and confidence. Night falls on him every time he gets into the box. But he does have great movement and skill otherwise.
  11. Old news. Pretty sure we did that two weeks ago. I wish we just moved on since I suspect we have no grounds, our contracts seem to always be awful
  12. I object to the concept of a Belgian #10. All #10s should be either Latin-American or from the Balkans.
  13. They can be rescinded in Spain, strange that your FA doesn't.
  14. 16m for Sam Clucas. Of course Liverpool will want like 150 for Coutinho
  15. I'm glad you had a blast! August games are always poorly attended because of the holidays. Add to it what happened earlier in the week and... And yes, take away Messi (and Suárez) and our side is bang average. Best positive from yesterday was that Deulofeu was somewhat effective against this kind of opposition. We'll need any kind of pace and directness upfront we can get at this point. Cheers VI, the attendance didn't take away from what was an amazing experience. So glad I went, the wife loved it as well. It looked full anyway and when the sun went down what a stadium to be in. I already touched on it, but what do the real proper Barca fans think of the tourist fans? We get day trippers at SJP but nowhere near the level and scale of Barcelona. One bloke and his kids came all the way from Brazil just for the match. People say the stadium is dilapidated, but I thought it was immense, a proper stadium. Atmosphere was quite good as well with the ultras? making a canny din. I liked the right back or right winger, the black fella, he did an amazing skill to get away from his marker during the first half which had many in their feet aplauding. August is always full of daytrippers, it's usually not like that during the season. People are generally okay with it, in particular if they are actual football fans and not just random tourists looking for a photo. I actually enjoy meeting fans of other teams in the bars outside the ground. There some resentment when seeing people in Real Madrid shirts for Clásicos sitting in the home seats, or generally people just buying their way into big games and keeping local fans out - but that's actually a very small occurrence given how our ticketing works, even if it always draws media attention. The stadium is really old, there's a renovation planned.

  17. Well, that wasn't too inspiring but at least we did the job. Now buy somebody who's not shit please. Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk
  18. "Man City sources" have denied to one our local rags that they want to activate Messi's release fee. Since Man City's football staff is mainly ex-Barça dudes I'm inclined to believe these "sources" are reliable.
  19. Don't Spurs have any kid from the academy that can serve as 3rd keeper?
  20. Howay Girona! Atlético down 2-0 and looking terrible.
  21. Wham still lost the game. Think of that wasted goal bonus money for Chicharito!
  22. Looks like we'll trigger Seri's release clause (€40m). Is he really that good? Surprised he hasn't gone earlier in the window with such "affordable" clause in place, given the state of the market.
  23. A new deal was sorted out earlier in the summer, to be signed in August.
  24. Damn, how the fuck do I fit him in my FF team.
  25. Where did you see this? Yeah, can't find it anywhere either.
