I still believe favorites for UCL this season are Bayern

gilded mist
#

obv

fallow ferry
#

even though Bayern's defense is being shot

gilded mist
#

the previous winners are always favorite

fallow ferry

Cenler

#

alpine socket
#

This one is a parody acc

keen gorge
#

I feel like Bayern have started to slack in the Bundesliga

fallow ferry
#

they always do

#

and then 2nd half of season

#

they go god mode

gilded mist
#

i just read that and its fake

alpine socket
fallow ferry
#

but tbh Bundesliga clubs have really became good

plain elbow
#

oh fuck, it’s that page

fallow ferry
#

Leipzig and Leverkusen are actually contenders now

plain elbow
#

I legit read it as “barcacentre”

alpine socket

fallow ferry
#

if Real can get their form back

plain elbow
#

fuck that’s fake for sure

fallow ferry
#

Spain should be good

#

to go

#

for Europe

#

Germany as well

plain elbow
#

let me delete the fake stuff before mods kill me

alpine socket
#

Laporta won't let elections to postpone

#

He's the clear winner rn

torn ermine
#

there is an account replicating hagrid rn

#

sharing fake news and shit

#

ffs

fallow ferry
#

fake accounts

#

ignore them

gilded mist
fallow ferry
#

he is

#

Laporta is gonna win

#

100%

#

I mean Laporta did magics for Barca in 2005

gilded mist
#

i haven't been paying much attention to it apart from the weird things that they are promising

plain elbow
#

god I read that as “barcacentre” when in reality it’s “barcacenler” kekw sorry y’all

fallow ferry
#

wtf does cenler mean\

gilded mist
#

its good

livid yoke
fallow ferry
#

I think Betis can get UEL this season

alpine socket
#

Laporta has got 10000 signatures for qualifying as a candidate while font has around 2700

fallow ferry
#

but idk

#

we gotta be consistent

torn ermine
#

next time just see the @ LMV 👍

livid yoke
alpine socket
#

And the rumours that messi family actually signed him for this is a big thing

gilded mist
#

back to talking about Valladolid kekw do you guys know who Jota is?

plain elbow
#

heard about those as well

#

rumors of messi’s fam giving signatures for joan laporta

gilded mist
#

nah nah

#

fake

plain elbow
#

yea

#

surely fake

torn ermine
#

Has xavi talked about anything regarding the election or about font?

alpine socket
#

Laporta has more contacts and experience than font tbh

feral palm
torn ermine
#

lol

feral palm
#

Like if Laporta wins he's still open to join that administration

#

But if font wins, it's a definitive

gilded mist
torn ermine
#

yeah im pretty sure xavi will still be part of us even if laporta wins

gilded mist
#

font just dragged him in

feral palm
#

Nah

alpine socket
#

Pizza guy is supporting font now

feral palm
#

I can understand it

#

Font has ppl in his project that are already in jobs

#

He can't just pull them away from their employers

gilded mist
#

i want font to win

torn ermine
#

i think font relationship with xavi is absolute clear

#

its genuine

alpine socket
#

Laporta's with messi is more clear

gilded mist
#

Laporta has the advantage because he was there before

plain elbow
#

xavi says that he plans on staying in qatar until at least next year, he’s playing mind games for me.

alpine socket
#

Half of people only talk about messi not their project

gilded mist
#

or Neymar

alpine socket
#

No one is talking about the financial crisis we face except one or two

plain elbow
#

laporta doesn’t even talk about his project, he doesn’t want to disclose anything that would cause a stir, and I personally like that.

alpine socket
#

He's presenting his team this week maybe

#

Not the team but something about his project

feral palm
#

Yeah he's presenting this week

#

Economic policy and sporting policy

fallow ferry
#

is he gonna attempt getting Pep back

#

or nah

feral palm
#

Doubt it

torn ermine
#

doubt

alpine socket
#

Get overmars in

feral palm
#

Yeah bartomeu wants to bring in 3 sporting directors

torn ermine
#

pep signed a long contract with city recently

plain elbow
#

hopefully not, as much as I love pep, I’ve moved on from that era.

feral palm
#

Zorc, Overmars and someone else

torn ermine
#

but you know, we are always open for pep to come back

fallow ferry
#

Zorc?

#

he is in Dortmund

feral palm
#

Mhm

plain elbow
#

the sporting director position is what I’ve got my eye on for sure.

alpine socket
#

Pep won't be back now

fallow ferry
#

I doubt he will leave Dortmund lol

feral palm
#

But Laporta is goated

alpine socket
#

He's done with barca

feral palm
#

He can do what he wants

fallow ferry
#

and then Laporta is gonna go hire Xavi

plain elbow
#

I really just don’t want clowns like eric abidal in such positions ever again, the man nearly ruined his legacy at the club.

feral palm
fallow ferry
#

isnt Abidal a legend at Barca

#

as a player

plain elbow
#

yes

torn ermine
#

he got sacked

plain elbow
#

well, at least I consider him a legend

fallow ferry
#

real culprit

torn ermine
#

we still love him as a player and as our legend 👍

alpine socket
#

Laporta is good with mouth and his campaign, his team and policies will decide the election

plain elbow
#

I could’ve literally done a better job than abidal ffs, as sporting director

plain elbow
feral palm
#

Fans at this point can struggle to differentiate the careers of legends from their player career and management career

alpine socket
#

Didn't font announce cryuff jr?

feral palm
#

The only fans I see doing a good job of it rn are chelsea fans

#

A lot are Lampard out but they're more than aware of his status as a legend at the club and that's never gonna be at risk no matter how poor a manager he is

#

And they respect that

#

They can tell the two careers apart

torn ermine
#

fr

feral palm
#

Barcelona fans however...

fallow ferry
#

I remember for our previous board, Betis fans made Vote of No Confidence document and everyone signed

feral palm
#

If an ex player fucks up.. he's dead to em

gilded mist
#

i mean was koeman even a legend

fallow ferry
#

yes

feral palm
#

Abidal and Koeman two prime examples

plain elbow
#

y e s

#

koeman is one of the best to ever wear blaugrana

alpine socket
#

Koeman is doing good as a manager especially with this team and circumstances

fallow ferry
#

I remember how Pep replaced Yaya Toure with Busquets

#

Busquets used to be a top DM

#

unlike now when he is washed up fish

torn ermine
gilded mist
#

is kaka a real madrid legend?

fallow ferry
#

no

#

Kaka got injured so many times

torn ermine
#

how many games did kaka even play?

gilded mist
#

but he was a great player who played for madrid

#

he isn't a legend

fallow ferry
#

man was an injury prone

gilded mist
#

thats my point

torn ermine
#

and koeman was an injury prone?

fallow ferry
#

no

gilded mist
#

just because ur good and you play for a club doesn't make you a legend for that club

fallow ferry
#

koeman was a legend for Barca

gilded mist
#

he only played 6 seasons

torn ermine
#

idk what the point you are trying to make penguin

fallow ferry
#

we can say Kaka was legend for Milan though right?

gilded mist
#

yes

torn ermine
#

you said he aint a legend for us

#

i dont understand

plain elbow
#

well, wembley 1992 was probably where he gained the legend status for me. he was a reliable defender for us for good amount of time.

alpine socket
#

He said about kaka

fallow ferry
#

didnt Koeman score a CL winning free kick vs

gilded mist
#

idk i just feel that you need to spend more than 6 seasons at a club to be a legend

fallow ferry
#

I cant believe im saying this

#

#

henrik larsson is current koeman's assistant?

Not bad

henrik larsson, another one of my favorite players. those 2006 ucl final heroics.

I sometimes forget Deco played at Barca

feral palm
#

Yeah I didn't get deco lmao

fallow ferry
feral palm
#

I got every name from 2009 onwards but before that it was blurry

#

Quite patchy

#

deco could’ve given us a couple more years had pep not shown him the door for being overweight lol

There was one name I forgot in the 2009 team

Any guesses

O.O

feral palm
#

Pep well and truly robbed

grim thicket
#

El Cholo ftw!!

#

tbf Pep's biggest contributions at barca were before 2010 imo

#

and barca were alrdy a big club....

#

compared to that what Simeone has done at atleti is phenomenal

#

brought a mid table team into regular title contenders

keen gorge
#

Let Pep manage a team without a GDP budget

grim thicket
#

exactly

plain elbow
#

the award to simeone makes sense, the changes at atletico under him have been more so cultural, not much about the silverware.

alpine socket
#

Was there a condition that no gdp coaches were not allowed in ifhfhs selections

grim thicket
#

well if we are talking about silverware, what goes more than a UCL threepeat?

#

but thats not how its done

#

its all about influence

#

marcelino couldve done a similar thing at Valencia imo, if it wasnt for Peter Lim

fallow ferry
#

sad how Marcelino was sacked right after beating Barca 2-1 in CDR final

plain elbow
#

simeone has been able to ingrain his own football philosophy to the club’s entire tentacles. a respected human being by everyone.

#

several other managers have been able to get teams playing better football than atletico, and maybe won more silverware as well, but all of that seemed to die out and need a reset after 3-4 years.

feral palm
#

Wait is it a la liga only trophy

#

Then absolutely simeone deserves it

torn ermine

It's for enrite Europe maybe

the france football awards, they can also piss off

plain elbow
fallow ferry
#

Im pretty sure France football was mad that PSG lost to Bayern

grim thicket
#

most award ceremonies are just journalists voting the most popular players

#

mostly it isnt about quality

keen gorge
#

It is more about popularity rather than skill

plain elbow
#

unfortunately

grim thicket
#

yeah

fallow ferry
#

I think these awards should be scrapped

#

ngl

#

they are clearly more about favoritism

the awards enable bragging rights, giving football world something to debate on for the rest of time lol

Felt like doing this

stiff fjord
#

I will fill the buy ones

#

Goalkeeper: Batalla/Rossi
LB: Grimaldo

grim thicket
#

grimaldo or gaya?

#

gaya may come cheap since valencia are always selling

stiff fjord
#

Oh yeah Gaya would be good

feral palm
#

I'd like Angelino but he's probably tied to Leipzig for a few years

#

Gaya feels unlikely bc he's devoted to Valencia and is their club captain

#

That said, they kicked out Parejo last Summer

#

Grimaldo feels like a player who's being inflated by fans as being better than he actually is but idk

stiff fjord
#

Imagine davies joins

grim thicket
#

i think gaya is better than grimaldo at this point

feral palm
#

Yeah I agree

stiff fjord
#

I know but there isn't that many lb that are like Spanish or willing to go to spain

grim thicket
#

and valencia are known to sell for dirt cheap

feral palm
grim thicket
#

so gaya would be your best option

feral palm
#

You could make a whole starting XI of spanish leftbacks

grim thicket
#

probably start over alba too

#

i think we are tied up with Mendy, and possibly reguilon for now, so thats clear

stiff fjord
#

Bernat then

grim thicket
#

need to sort out a backup for Carva tho

#

LV is okay but not reliable

feral palm
#

Angelino
Reguilon
Gaya
Alba
Grimaldo
Berchiche
Firpo
Bernat
Moreno
Alonso
Jonny
Monreal

grim thicket
#

and Odri has been sus defensively

#

you forgot Cucurella, altho he doesnt rlly play LB anymore

feral palm

Yeah I didn't count him bc he's playing higher and higher every week

grim thicket

also wb Pedraza?

What about oriol busquets

Oh yeah pedraza

villareal got some solid signings ngl

Can play cb too

estupinan, pedraza, parejo, coquelin

man that team looks good

#

Estupinan is a baller

grim thicket
#

oof yes

#

Would've liked to sign him someday

grim thicket
#

he was literally carrying last season

feral palm
#

Osasuna?

grim thicket
#

yeah

feral palm
#

I'm glad he got back to la liga

#

And wasn't stuck with watford

grim thicket
#

i wish Anguissa came back to laliga

#

he was pretty decent as a B2B or CDM last season

#

but he is starting for fulham now

#

so dont think thats gonna happen

feral palm
#

He feels like a getafe esque player

grim thicket
#

yeah true

#

high energy disciplined

feral palm
#

Obviously you support real and I barca, but who in la liga would u have a soft spot for

grim thicket
#

Villareal and Sevilla

#

i rlly wish success for villareal

feral palm
#

Yeah mine would be Villareal and Betis

grim thicket
#

it kinda changes for me every season, like i was rooting for sociedad last season, altho it was mainly becoz Odegaard was loaned there, but still villareal has always been one of my favs

feral palm
#

Except for Fekir fuck fekir all my homies hate Fekir

grim thicket
#

lmao

#

another team i feel may rise to mid table is Vallodolid

opal sigil
grim thicket
#

Roque Mesa has been okay, they just need to work on their chemistry imo

#

they got a decent squad

feral palm
#

@opal sigil very exciting news

#

Especially bc it's pretty fuckin reliable

opal sigil
#

Yes indeed

grim thicket
#

but what about goatwaite

#

Relegations: Huesca, Osasuna, Alaves

Promotions: Espanyol, Mallorca, Almeria

I hope Almeria come up

#

I like mallorca

#

And Espanyol are a la liga standard team

grim thicket
#

yes espanyol's relegation last season was kinda unfortunate

#

and very unexpected

feral palm
#

We got a few Masia kids at Almeria and one B team player on loan so getting upto la liga would be really really impressive

grim thicket
#

oh noice

i think its time we loan out players like Blanco and Chust.....their development has kinda stagnated this year

#

and pls lets get rid of Marcelo and promote Miguel

#

rn marcelo has literally no positives

stiff fjord
grim thicket

#

But actually maybe osasuna

#

Or cadiz

Nah fuck cadiz

Idk how to explain my logic

But if Osasuna were a number

They'd be 4

#

And that's boring

Maybe

5

Yeah 5

grim thicket

exactly fuck cadiz

10/10 for metaphor tho

osasuna are boring 🤷‍♂️

yeah, but Rian chose to compare them to the no 4 kekw

@livid yoke my brain shuts down at this time of night

#

that's semi serious btw

#

anyway, I should shut up before this goes off topic

covert monolith
#

there's no way we have enough money for him

grim thicket
#

release clause is 75m, you can get him for lesser tho i think

#

or has that release clause expired?

opal sigil
#

We dont got cash but there is interest and this is good news

feral palm
#

We will have the money for him

#

Plus Laporta and Raiola are buddies

#

And Raiola wants to improve barcelona relations

covert monolith
#

ehh

#

i don't see it happening

feral palm
#

So that infamous Raiola comission will be cheap

covert monolith
#

wasn't he linked to Man U?

feral palm
#

The source reporting the news is Top tier for all things Raiola @covert monolith

covert monolith
#

oh

feral palm
#

Nothing stands in the way of Haaland to Barcelona as things stand

#

Unlike a move to, man city for example

#

Raiola is the obstacle

#

And we've managed to avoid it

opal sigil
#

Need to drop off coutinho to help fund that tho

covert monolith
#

idk i still don't see it happening

#

i hope it happens tho

opal sigil
#

Atleast theres interest

feral palm
#

Raiola wants, Raiola gets

covert monolith
#

Raiola hasn't gotten Pogba out of Manchester

feral palm
#

We'll see about that in 6 months

covert monolith
#

every transfer window Pogba is always linked out of the club

#

but then he always stays

grim thicket
#

And he gets a salary raise

#

That's what's important

#

Raiola is a god to his players

still pagoda

ATLETICO WON

RM this season are having cycles

It will start with bad results everyone #zidaneout

Then they start winning and have a good streak

Then they start having bad results again and the cycle continues

at least for me no matter what he does i will never say #zidaneout

he would need to do extremely bad to get sacked

but i guess Poch got sacked

Everyones so critical of zidane

Why cant they just trust him?

Not to mention lord navas

Those times are over

Also puig's mentality is exactly what barcelona need smh

So happy to see him score the last penalty

#

Neto's actually a good backup for Barca

#

He's alright

feral palm
#

Yeah but we don't normally keep a backup keeper for more than 2-3 years

#

So I reckon he will be sold in summer

#

And Inaki or Arnau will get the promotion

iron marten
#

Yeah

torn ermine
#

i think the longest time backup keeper we got was pinto

iron marten
#

Pinto was dogshit

#

I hope we sign Unai Simon

potent spade
#

I hope you don't

#

Barcelona keeps ruining good GKs lol. But I guess they choose for that themselves. They probably get good wages.

#

Cillessen, Neto. I hope Simon isnt next on the list.

iron marten
#

Lol..

torn ermine

yeah simon can stay at bilbao

#

i hope we try inaki pena at least once

maybe copa del rey

Use neto

Inaki deserves a game

And this is the only game we can afford to test him in

Neto also deserves a game

And hes better

Did you Barca fans know that Koeman has won 4 away games in a row?

#

Huesca, Bilbao, Granada & now Sociedad

#

That's impressive!

torn ermine
#

yeah

thats impressive, but some people still call him a fraud

few people just dont have the patience to wait and see

iron marten

Yeah

slender olive

iron marten
#

Yes

#

Wasn't at Camp Nou soooo

potent spade
#

When actually the transfers made by the board (or lack of them) the past few years have contributed a lot more to the state Barcelona is in rn.

#

Who the fuck buys Griezmann for 125m or something is what i would like to know. Could have bought 2 good defenders for that.

#

If they would have pushed for de Ligt instead of letting him go to Juventus and skipped on Griezmann things would have been a lot better already I think.

#

Paying that much for a player just isnt a viable strategy unless hes the next Messi

stiff fjord
#

ok

stiff fjord
potent spade
#

disagreed he wasnt even close to being one of the best in the world

#

plus it just worked with atleticos playing style

#

barcelonas playing style is like opposite of that

#

griezmann was a shitty transfer imo but well maybe its just me

#

no one puts griezmann in the same category as Messi, Ronaldo, Mbappe etc

elfin flower
#

And his big brain decisions?

potent spade
#

Yes I have

elfin flower
#

Dembele 120
Griezmann 125
Coutinho 100

This is business

potent spade
#

I think thats why barcelona are in the state they are in rn, not because of the manager.

elfin flower
elfin flower
#

Barto destroyed everything that Pep and Enrique built

potent spade
#

I dont think the manager has much to do with it to be completely honest. Theyve spend 350mil on 3 mediocre players (well Dembele is amazing but injuries). And now they don't have any money left to buy anything.

#

even had to sell Arthur cause they were breaching FFP

stiff fjord
#

Grizi and Coutinho mediocre?

#

or do mean them right now

elfin flower
#

They were good in their previous clubs

potent spade
#

For the amount Barcelona has spend on them they are mediocre yes

elfin flower
#

Lacking the skill now

iron marten
#

Barcelona have 1 billion debt

potent spade
#

If you spend 125m on a player you expect him to be like Mbappe or something

hybrid python
#

Not really

#

It’s 850 to be accurate

iron marten
#

Almost 1 billion debt

#

Maybe club gets deleted

potent spade
#

Barcelona are in a cycle of ''manager is shit'' now, while its not the manager lol

#

You could put any manager at Barcelona and he would probably be shit

Who is blaming the manager ?

I think Barcelona are better off keeping Koeman and waiting until they can hopefully spend money again

We need elections asap for that

They should save money

Easy w for him lol

potent spade
#

I think barto forgot about that last part

iron marten
#

Barto bought random players

potent spade
#

You can buy a good player like Griezmann but if he doesnt fit in your team its shit still

iron marten
#

You see, even Puig a Barca B player is better than most Barca A players

hybrid python
#

Si senior

potent spade
#

Barcelona did a good job with Dembele but they were unlucky with him tbh

#

I still think he is sick

#

If he had better work ethic and less injuries he would be one of the best wingers in the world no doubt

hybrid python
#

He’s is legitimate 3rd best player this szn

#

For Barça

stiff fjord
#

whos 1st and 2nd?

iron marten

1st Messi easy

#

2nd Lord Braithwaite

Messi and fati

wait let me put stegen at 2nd

Id say de Jong is 3rd

after Messi and Fati

@grim thicket sorry for 🅱️ing just want to ask you, was it worth it to sell Theo and bring mendy? I mean Theo is now the best LB of their league, would he have been as good now?

#

And how good is Mendy? I barely watch Real games

#

I only know that Theo is now a fucking Beast

stiff fjord

No lol

#

Griezmann been good this season and is one of the hardest workers in the team

Dest has been drifting off a bit, probably bc he's exhausted

ok i will pay 10 cents for him to come back

I dont like griezmann at Barca he will never be the same anymore sadly

Dembele was alright

Too much dribbling tho

Koeman dumb tho how could he play dembele for 120minutes

Nothing dumb about it

First of all he was already tired second he was risking a next injury
