Fun Fact

#

Although Athletic Bilbao's policy is to only allow Basque players play for them

#

One of their players is internationally capped for Bosnia

devout geyser
#

@feral palm yeah Kenan Kondro

#

he was born in San Sebastian

#

so he is eligible to play for us

Second best player on the pitch for me

torn ermine

man im glad we are giving him chances

He's gonna be our best defender in a few years

Actually

He's our best defender rn

What channel is the final in usa?

#

I heard Eder Militao might sign for Dortmund, can any Real fan tell me how good he is?

#

It will be probably only a loan tho

There's a few clubs in for him

Well I don't know if current board has the power for transfers

slender olive
torn ermine
#

prob

alpine socket
#

Confirmed

iron marten
#

That's ridiculous

#

Tusquets will do everything in his power to destroy Barcelona, just like Bartomeu

torn ermine
#

these people are so fucked up man

topaz crest
#

doesnt seem like a bvb type signing to me

#

we usually dont buy from the big clubs due to the wages issue

grave glen
#

He aint even starting for them

topaz crest
#

negative wages, that's how you know its accurate

grave glen
#

Wut

#

He earns less than 1m a year?

topaz crest
#

no way this can be true

fair yacht
#

wtf

livid yoke
#

but yeah, no way he’s on Ā£13k per week at Real

#

yeah its crazy how we think of 13k a week as low

elfin flower

#

I read somewhere that koeman is taking entire squad

#

I think it would be same unless messi is in

covert monolith
#

messi should be fit

upper drift
#

Who is Tusquets?

devout geyser
#

13k at Real?

#

what a joke

#

Real is richest club itw

covert monolith
#

at least its better than like every barca player being on like 300k a week

feral palm
#

His only job was to call a date for presidential elections

#

He called them way too late, and now it's postponed until like May

#

Which was later than the presidential elections were actually meant to happen while bartomeu was president

torn ermine
#

WHAT?!?

#

MAY?

feral palm
#

Yes.

torn ermine
#

tf?

feral palm
#

It's all gone to shit

torn ermine
#

bruh

#

this club is done without the real pres

feral palm
#

So now how Barcelona is gonna be ran until then is by only doing things that Font, Laporta and Freixa agree on

devout geyser
#

so what will happen

upper drift
#

Lol I thought it was Busquets

devout geyser
#

dont Barca have 400m to pay this month

feral palm
#

Who knows at this point

#

Eh were not in danger of bankruptcy atm

#

The wage agreements settled it

devout geyser
#

point is

feral palm
#

Every club is in debt to some degree

devout geyser
#

Barca cant go on a massive splash of cash in summer

feral palm
#

That was never an option

devout geyser
#

covid screwed lots of things up in football

feral palm
devout geyser
#

Busquets?

feral palm
#

Yes absolutely

#

Our best midfield has been determined

#

Busi, De Jong, Pedri

#

In a single pivot

covert monolith
#

busquets is just a cheap tusquets

feral palm
#

Don't dare to compare the two

alpine socket
#

Wait who said may

feral palm
#

Tusquets is shitty at his job 100% the time

covert monolith
#

rian i think

feral palm
#

Busquets is shitty at his job less than 50%

alpine socket
#

The source?

covert monolith
#

who controls the wages in the club can they be fired?

feral palm
#

I can't remember the source probably md

alpine socket
#

Duh

#

@covert monolith tusquets and grau atm

devout geyser
#

biscuits

alpine socket
#

Bartomeu had proposed 15th March

covert monolith
#

not kinda at the moment but for the last 5 yrs whoever's been doing wages

#

they think they're playing career mode

#

and they got a financial takeover

devout geyser
#

Chelsea have been playing career mode this season

thats still crap

grim thicket
#

hey atleast you are in the supercopa final

slender olive
#

yeah well

grim thicket
#

we got wrecked by fking bilbao

slender olive
#

pres elections is really important

#

it cant be delayed any further

glass lodge
#

cant wait for that clown who promised haaland to get elected only for him to say "lmao were broke we cant afford him sorry xoxo"

grim thicket
#

lmao

#

that would be epic

devout geyser
#

imagine

grim thicket
#

i mean laporta is such a wannabe that he literally had a banner in front of the bernabeu

#

rlly cant wait to see how he "revives" the finances

plain elbow
#

even as a barca fan myself, that banner was straight up stupid.

devout geyser
#

thats disrespecting the stadium lmao

#

considering Bernabeu is under renovation

alpine socket
#

Bruh

#

7 march

plain elbow
#

well, anything rattling up the madrid fans is somewhat funny. I just personally didn’t see the need for the banner though. If this was actually his strategy for ppl to get behind him and support him, it’s concerning. I know he’s someone that likes to keep some stuff of his project confidential, but still....

alpine socket
#

Laporta is not stupid

#

He is probably smartest of all candidates

plain elbow
#

he’ll also be winning this election by landslide as well

alpine socket
#

Yes

plain elbow
#

most likely I’d say

alpine socket
#

If we had elections it Feb, it would have been very easy for Laporta

plain elbow
#

i’ve always kept my support for victor font, even though some of the small glimpses of laporta’s project that he’s leaked himself sound encouraging as well.

alpine socket
#

He is always on point

plain elbow
#

whether it’s font or laporta, I have no doubt that they’ll come good, I don’t expect to be the force we once were, but we’ll surely compete and regain some of the stature we embarrassingly lost.

devout geyser
#

do Barca believe they can get Haaland lmao

#

his fat price and fat wages

plain elbow
#

plenty of opportunities open up when we truly begin to move players on in bulk. the likes of griezmann and coutinho seem like they’ll be the ones sacrificed for instance.

devout geyser
#

problem is

slender olive
#

Font should be elected, not Laporta

devout geyser
#

Barca arent only club that want Haaland

#

Real, City, Bayern

plain elbow
#

surely

devout geyser
#

lots of top clubs also want him

#

I still believe Haaland will stay at Dortmund

#

I mean who would be willing to pay him 200k per week during pandemic

plain elbow
#

he’s got his release clause coming up, don’t know if it’s this summer or next summer, but surely he’ll be gone when it’s triggered.

slender olive
#

75m is a seriously good deal for that big of a talent lmao

devout geyser
#

question is who will trigger it

slender olive
#

he might even be better than mbappe, and yeah

#

Also

devout geyser
#

Mbappe is more of a winger

#

than a striker

slender olive
#

well last last night

devout geyser
#

yeah well yall got sweet present from us

slender olive
#

yep

#

good luck in the final

devout geyser
#

but on Sunday, no more sweet presents

slender olive
#

but not too much luck

plain elbow
#

yes, atm the team literally need a player to bang goals home, literally.

slender olive
#

;)

plain elbow
#

in terms of wingers, barcelona are ok.

devout geyser
#

for Haaland to go to Real or Barca, both Real and Barca need to up their game a lot

slender olive
#

does haaland actually not fit us

#

I reckon Haaland will love the chance to play w messi

devout geyser
#

what im interested about is

slender olive
#

if Messi stays

iron marten
#

Barca is too poor to buy Haaland

devout geyser
#

will Atletico be a 1 season wonder

#

or will they become a contender now

slender olive
#

Well, theyre certainly building for the future

plain elbow
#

oh for sure, a lot needs to change at barcelona in order to welcome such talented stars, and be able to integrate into the squad PROPERLY. as we were unable to do so with grizzy and phil.

devout geyser
#

remember in 2014 when Atletico broke the cycle of Real and Barca's title winning

#

everyone thought Atletico would join in for title challenges

#

but

#

after that

#

it went back to normal

slender olive
plain elbow
#

2013-14 atletico was peak, it was beyond impressive, but it was even quite obvious to me at the time that it wouldn’t be sustainable

slender olive
#

2013-2014 atletico i remember costa went beast mode

devout geyser
#

@plain elbow tbh that UCL final completely killed their confidence

devout geyser
#

they were so close to winning UCL

#

but then

#

92:48

#

Ramos header

plain elbow
slender olive
#

Man

#

I wish they won it

#

they 100% deserved it

#

wait

devout geyser
#

I wouldnt say they deserved it

slender olive
#

if they won it that would've been the treble, right

devout geyser
#

Real were better in that game

#

@slender olive no

#

Real won CDR

#

that season

slender olive
#

Oh

plain elbow
#

simeone made a terrible decision in starting costa that day

devout geyser
#

he also made a bad tactical decision

slender olive
#

they had the lead till stoppage time

devout geyser
#

Atleti went 1-0 up thanks to Godin and then they basically defended entire game

#

and basically invited pressure

#

it was matter of time before Real scored

#

and when they did it was clear Real was gonna take it home

plain elbow
#

atleti players were literally out of breath by the 90th minute, and that one extra wasted sub could’ve made the difference throughout the game

devout geyser
#

because Atleti were so exhausted

devout geyser
plain elbow
#

yea

#

it was landslide real after that

devout geyser
#

I dont even know if Atleti did anything in ET

#

it was just Real

plain elbow
#

madrid literally steamrolled them in ET, literally

slender olive
devout geyser
#

Di Maria though

#

what a player he was

#

that night

#

really dont know why he went to United

#

from my point of view

#

going from CL champions Real Madrid

#

to United who literally finished 7th that season

#

seemed absurd to me

plain elbow
#

james rodriguez came, and it already seemed obvious that ancelotti didn’t count on him.

devout geyser
#

Di Maria flopped at United

plain elbow
#

di maria was awful at united, absolute trash

devout geyser
#

then he went to PSG

#

was called a snake

plain elbow
#

tbf, he didn’t want the move in the first place, and had a hard time settling in the city. his house was also robbed of you didn’t know

devout geyser
#

and became good again

#

yeah ik

#

he hated England

#

he went from sunny Spain

#

to rainy England

plain elbow
#

england ain’t for everyone

devout geyser
#

I mean its hard

hybrid python
#

Not really

#

Just an overhyped league

devout geyser
#

not just PL

#

in general

#

every league

keen gorge
#

Which put us at a disadvantage at the end of the game as we couldn't make any subs

plain elbow
#

yes, I mentioned that.

#

surely it's an error that pains el cholo till this day, maybe the biggest mistake of his managerial career

#

I remember it vividly, costa went down in that famous last game of the szn at camp nou and was certainly ruled out of the ucl final. then he fucked off to switzerland I believe where he recieved some sort of special natural treatment, and out of nowhere, he was apparently fit to play.

devout geyser
#

his another mistake was letting Griezmann take penalty in 2016 final

plain elbow
#

wasn't griezmann already the team's designated pen taker though?

devout geyser
#

yeah but

#

man was inexperienced

#

in UCL

#

he just got dragged from Sociedad

hybrid python
#

Griezmann man

#

King of missing pens

devout geyser
#

Griezmann at Atletico was so good

#

then he went to Barca and became shit

plain elbow
#

okay, I've just looked it up, and costa didn't apparently received treatment outside of spain prior to the ucl, but it was some sort of mare placenta gel that was used on his hamstring, few scientific research behind it.

hybrid python
#

He wasn’t a goal scorer tho

#

His best szn was 16/17 I guess

#

Scored 26 in all comps

#

That’s his best year

devout geyser
#

funny how Atleti were awful that year

keen gorge
#

16/17 we reached the semifinal in the cup and the UCL

#

but it felt like the squad needed change

#

Our best season was 15/16 in terms of performance

hybrid python
#

Would say

#

20/21

keen gorge
#

Anything can change as we are not halfway yet and still champions league to come

#

but in 15/16 we beat Barca with prime MSN and knocked them out of the UCL as title holders

#

We beat RM away

#

We beat Pep's Bayern

devout geyser
#

and 4-0

#

vs RM

keen gorge
devout geyser
#

oh yeah

#

mb

#

tbh Pep's Bayern wasnt exactly that amazing.

plain elbow
#

atletico missed two wonderful opportunites in those ucl finals, but hopefully they'll got another shot at it soon......as long as we don't meet them along the way.

keen gorge
#

We lost all the three finals we have been in after 90 minutes of play

devout geyser
#

I dont get what happened to Barca in 2014

#

was Martino a terrible coach

#

or was Barca just weak

plain elbow
#

wasn't the 1974 final played over two legs?

devout geyser
#

yeah

#

cuz of some problems

keen gorge
#

There were no penalties and the game had to be replayed

plain elbow
#

martino was not a terrible coach. he was handed an aging squad, and no transfer backing from the board, and his man-management wasn't the best which lead to him losing the dressing room eventually.

#

the martino era started very well, but quickly went to shit

devout geyser
#

I still feel sad what happened to Vilanova

#

was a good coach and a good person

#

but cancer beat him

hybrid python
#

My personal favourite coach of all time

#

Tito ā¤ļø

keen gorge
#

Vilanova started well and would have continued what Pep did

plain elbow
#

definitely. had he not fallen with illness, barcelona would've had a manager for a decent period of time.

hybrid python
#

100 points

devout geyser
#

thing is

#

Vilanova's legacy kind of took a hit after that Bayern tie

#

losing 7-0 on aggregate

plain elbow
#

we only won la liga in 12-13, where they equaled the 100 pt tally, but tito did have to temporarily leave half way through the season to go to NY for cancer treatment. we were stuck with jordi roura, his assistant who didn't really have much experience and fucked up a lot. that copa del rey exit showed it, and when tito returned from NY, we had to play bayern in the ucl the week after, there was simply no chance. 2012-13 could've been far better.

devout geyser
#

I mean tbh

#

Bayern were

#

a bit too strong

#

that season

hybrid python
#

Best team

devout geyser
#

the reason is

hybrid python
#

For their team

devout geyser
#

they were full of anger

#

from 2012

#

and wanted revenge

#

I still believe had Real not lost in penalties vs Bayern, they wouldve won UCL in 2012

plain elbow
#

had tito never came down with illness though, and had he worked with the squad throughout the entire season though, we could've surely gone on to win more trophies that year, i'm beyond sure of it.

devout geyser
#

barca won just la liga

#

right?

plain elbow
#

yea

devout geyser
#

couldve won cdr

#

ucl, not sure

plain elbow
#

bayern were incredible that year, but we could've put up far better competition had those unfortunate circumstances occurred

devout geyser
#

people say that La Liga has been weak for years but for me personally, I think 2010s was Spain

#

it wasnt just about Barca and Real being powerhouses

#

other Spanish clubs were really good as well

keen gorge
#

Sevilla won a couple of ELs

devout geyser
#

that was before 2010s

#

but Sevilla were still good

keen gorge
#

We won one in 2010

devout geyser
#

Valencia was good

#

Bilbao was also good

#

Bielsa actually took us to Europa and CDR finals

#

and we lost both to Atletico and Barca

keen gorge
#

Valencia were in the champions league constantly

devout geyser
#

who else was good

#

oh Malaga.

keen gorge
#

Villareal?

devout geyser
#

yeah Villarreal

#

but I remember Malaga 12/13 season

#

such a good team

hybrid python
#

Goated man

devout geyser
#

I remember Athletic beat SAF's Man United

#

in Europa

#

and we reached the final

#

just to fuck up vs Atletico

covert monolith
#

what season?

devout geyser
#

same week we went to CDR final and fucked up vs Barca

keen gorge
#

11/12

devout geyser
#

yeah 12/13

covert monolith
#

didn't man u win the league that season?

devout geyser
#

yes

#

and we beat them in UEL

covert monolith
#

why were they in Europa?

devout geyser
#

got knocked out in their group

keen gorge
devout geyser
#

Basel

covert monolith
#

lol

#

imagine

devout geyser
#

I remember everyone thought United would win EL

covert monolith
#

wenger barca never knocked out by basel

devout geyser
#

but then we wiped the floor with them at Old Trafford

plain elbow
#

bielsa’s bilbao side was nice to watch.

devout geyser
#

12/13 was probably last time we were actually good

#

actually no

#

Valverde also gave us some treats

plain elbow
#

the super cup was won with valverde right?

#

in 2015

devout geyser
#

yeah

#

we beat Barca 4-0 at San Mames

#

and tied 1-1 at Camp Nou

plain elbow
#

fuck, that mikel san jose goal still baffles me

devout geyser
#

my god mikel san jose

#

we were playing treble winning Barca side

#

and somehow beat them 4-0

plain elbow
#

ter stegen came out playing with his head like if he was manuel bloody neuer, and san jose smashed one from literally 50 yds out

devout geyser
#

but its crazy how Aduriz kept haunting Barca

#

throughout his career

#

and his final career goal was 90th minute bicycle kick vs Barca at San Mames

covert monolith
devout geyser
#

Aduriz was highly underrated its sad

covert monolith
plain elbow
#

aduriz has been one of the most underrated I’ve seen in my lifetime, i’m still quite angry at him for that elbow he threw at umtiti though hehe.

devout geyser
#

I mean man was built like a tank

#

and plus Bilbao players elbowing isnt anything new lol

#

we are Basques and our motto is to try winning, even if it means for us to lose our heads

plain elbow
#

makes sense

devout geyser
#

while I think we are gonna lose the final on Sunday, I think we can at least give Barca some challenge

hybrid python
#

šŸ‘šŸ¼

plain elbow
#

it’s gonna be an open ended game I’d say, nothing like the league game they played a week or so ago

devout geyser
#

Marcelino has done a lot since he arrived though

#

almost defeated Barca at San Mames, and now defeated Real Madrid and got us to cup final

#

call it Chocolate Cup or Energy Drink Cup or whatever, a trophy is a trophy

#

if Carabao Cup is considered as a relevant trophy, than Supercopa shall be as well

devout geyser
#

šŸ’‰

plain elbow
#

marcelino is a great manager

hybrid python
#

I feel bad for him tho

devout geyser
#

idk why Valencia sacked Marcelino ngl

hybrid python
#

He’s getting slandered from Madrid fanboys

devout geyser
#

got them UEL semi final

#

got them 4th place

#

got them CDR

plain elbow
#

p e t e r l i m

#

that’s why

devout geyser
#

Peter Lim is Bartomeu on steroids

plain elbow
#

peter lim is basically football’s modern day fascist dictator, that guy is awful.

devout geyser
#

its sad whats happening to Valencia

#

I hope Valencia survive

#

Valencia going down would be shameful

#

Valencia is way too big of a club to be in Segunda

plain elbow
#

oh it’d be terrible, I don’t wanna see it.

devout geyser
#

I remember when entire Spain cried when Deportivo La Coruna relegated

#

it was sad

plain elbow
#

I suffered a bit when villareal went down in 2012, but Valencia going down would be far worse.

devout geyser
#

Valencia couldve won 2 UCLs

#

in a row

#

Valencia 2000s was crazy

plain elbow
#

two finals in a row, thanks to hector cuper

devout geyser
#

isnt Cuper a meme nowadays

plain elbow
#

basically

#

well, he did manage to get Egypt to a World Cup recently

devout geyser
#

Valencia under Gary Neville though...

plain elbow
#

now he’s managing uzbekistan I believe......

devout geyser
#

Valencia under Gary Neville was so awful

#

idk what board was thinking

plain elbow
#

yea that was awful, 7-0 at our place in the copa del rey was peak. I’ll never forget all the memes and banter they made of gaz.

devout geyser
#

and then he tied 1-1 at Mestalla

plain elbow
#

yea, kaptoum score for us that day, we basically fielded the B team lmao

devout geyser
#

I think some Segunda clubs deserve to be in Primera

plain elbow
#

valencia weren’t even that bad with nuno either, don’t know why they rushed to sack him and more so, to replace him with NEVILLE

devout geyser
#

Espanyol, Mallorca, Almeria, Rayo, Malaga, Racing, Deportivo

#

and yes I realize that Racing Santander has been a walking meme for a decade but I just want them to return for memes

plain elbow
#

well, for me, espanyol can stay tf down there. But I really miss Racing, Rayo, and Depor.

devout geyser
#

Espanyol isnt staying down lmao

#

they are like

#

17 points clear

#

or something

#

they are definitely coming back up

plain elbow
#

yuck

devout geyser
#

thing is

#

Espanyol's fans....

#

🤮

plain elbow
#

surely

devout geyser
#

not all

#

some fans are actually nice

#

but most are really bad

#

lots are deluded and lots are racist

plain elbow
#

not surprising

devout geyser
#

k tbh now I kind of want Espanyol to stay down lol

#

would be such a huge banter

#

if they dont come up

#

I havent checked Segunda table for a while though

#

Espanyol choking

#

love to see it

#

I swear they were like

#

12 points clear

plain elbow
#

another team I miss just a bit is Zaragoza, only because we’ve had a reputation of battering them whenever we went to la romareda

devout geyser
#

ok hold on

#

how the fuck

#

is

#

Ponferradina

#

7th

#

oh god Racing are doing really bad rn

#

even in Segunda B

stiff fjord
#

Leganes can stay tf down

#

Mallorca I dont give a shiz aboit

#

Abour*

#

About*

#

I'd like to see

#

Espanyol
Girona
Rayo or Malaga come up

left sun
slender olive
#

Espanyol are almost certainly going up right

keen gorge
#

I'd Like to see new teams so:
Ponferradina
Lugo
Mirandes

devout geyser
#

Ponferradina are 7th

torn ermine
#

i want malaga to go back to la liga

devout geyser
#

I want Malaga and Rayo back in La Liga

torn ermine
#

its sad to see them fall like that

devout geyser
#

Espanyol is almost certainly coming back up

torn ermine
#

espanayol, rayo, malaga, i just hope these 3 goes up

#

i want getafe to relegate ffs

devout geyser
#

really, you want Espanyol back up?

torn ermine
#

yes, we want to beat their ass many times

devout geyser
#

ngl they didnt get beaten up by Barca last season

#

even put up a good fight at Camp Nou

torn ermine
#

yeah true thats why i want them back up and beat them

#

and relegate again šŸ˜‚

devout geyser
#

I want Getafe and Celta to go down though

#

Getafe is rugby fc

#

and Celta are just shit

torn ermine
#

idek how celta beat cadiz 4-0

devout geyser
#

Celta is legit 8th rn

#

I have no idea how

torn ermine
#

aspas = celta

devout geyser
#

they almost got relegated last season

#

even with Aspas

torn ermine
#

i do like aspas tho

#

what a player he is

devout geyser
#

Celta lost 5-2 to Ibiza

torn ermine
#

celta should build a statue for him or something

devout geyser
#

Huesca is 100% going down

#

kind of sad ngl

#

Huesca away is actually pretty challenging

#

Elche have absolutely bottled though

slender olive
#

If i remember correctly, Elche were pretty high up the table earlier in the season

devout geyser
#

although they have 2 games in hand

slender olive
#

like 10th

devout geyser
#

yeah they were

#

I mean Elche has 2 games in hand

slender olive
#

True

#

if somehow they win them both theyre 8th

#

Osasuna are kinda improving tho

#

they got 4 draws in a row

devout geyser
#

whats sad for them is 1 of their games in hand is Barcelona at Camp Nou

slender olive
#

We have 4 w

#

in 5

slender olive
devout geyser
#

ok lmao

slender olive
#

Camp nou is no longer the fortress it once was

devout geyser
#

Elche's 2 games in hand

slender olive
#

Eibar, Valencia took points there

devout geyser
#

are Barca and Sevilla away

#

F

slender olive
#

Real madrid beat us there

devout geyser
#

ok cmon

slender olive
#

Sevilla took a point too

devout geyser
#

it was gonna happen soon

#

Real shouldve won at Camp Nou last season

slender olive
#

yh true

#

hopefully we can return the favour at the bernabeu later this season

devout geyser
#

you cant cuz bernabeu is under renovation

#

lmao

slender olive
#

Yk last season at the bernabeu, we did well in the 1st half

#

and real were dog shit

devout geyser
#

well yeah

#

2nd half though

slender olive
#

if we had taken our chances, would've been 0-3

devout geyser
#

Barca were absolute shit

slender olive
#

2nd half, real grew into the game

#

their goal shocked us

#

and then they scored again

devout geyser
#

Pique in 2nd half

#

🄶

#

I mean this season

#

Real again dominated most of match

#

vs Barca

#

even when Real lost 5-1 to Barca

#

they had more chances

#

it seems like Real just cant take chances well

slender olive
#

in the clasico this season, in the 1st half we were good despite going a goal down

#

we did well to come back a few minutes later

torn ermine
#

lol i can also say we had chances, but if we cant convert it, its meaningless

slender olive
#

that second half though

#

again, real shocked us by scoring again, and we never came back

#

Incidentially, what we need to do is prevent real from scoring and ruining our rhythm

devout geyser
#

thats hard when your defense is made of marshmellows

slender olive
#

Which is kinda obvious because thats the whole point of football- score more than your oppoment

#

Thats true, hopefully garcia will help

#

IS garcia coming now or summer

devout geyser
#

summer

#

most likely

torn ermine
#

summer i think

#

cuz eric will come for free

#

confirmed by fabrizio

devout geyser
#

I mean

#

Garcia shouldnt have problem

#

settling in

#

he is a La Masia graduate

slender olive
#

Eric's coming for sure no matter what

#

Thats good

torn ermine
#

cuz he is la masia by blood

devout geyser
#

problem is

slender olive
#

Can we try and buy depay?

devout geyser
#

he better not wear his helmet

devout geyser
torn ermine
#

we can, cuz depay is currently not high on his price tag

slender olive
#

I think, 15m or 10m is his price

devout geyser
#

I mean Depay is good but

slender olive
#

which is pretty surreal for the player he is

devout geyser
#

I have a feeling he would flop

#

at Barca

torn ermine
#

its koeman plan tho

slender olive
#

Yeah

torn ermine
#

so if we can give koeman what he wants

devout geyser
#

#FreePuig

torn ermine
#

then lets see

slender olive
#

Honestly, Koeman has done the best he could i think

#

With our ruined mentality and such

torn ermine
devout geyser
#

what I know is

slender olive
#

We're 3rd, and still somewhat in the title race

devout geyser
#

well

#

tbh

#

I think title race is gonna end

#

once Atleti plays

#

their games

#

in hand

slender olive
#

We just need atletico to drop points

torn ermine
#

we are not favorite to be in the top 3

devout geyser
#

I mean

torn ermine
#

nobody expect us to be top 3

slender olive
#

We can be 2nd

devout geyser
#

hard task

slender olive
#

Ill be ok with 2nd

#

Madrid are getting weaker

torn ermine
#

yeah im ok with 2nd tbh

devout geyser
#

thats the problem

#

every time people begin counting Real out

slender olive
#

Madrid just need to fuck up more

devout geyser
#

they suddenly come back up

slender olive
#

Well I hope it lasts longer this time

torn ermine
#

madrid is weird to predict

devout geyser
#

plus Real Madrid have h2h advantage vs barca

slender olive
#

Yeah

slender olive
devout geyser
#

I actually knew Real would beat Gladbach

#

ngl

slender olive
#

we NEED to

devout geyser
#

Real under pressure is just different animal

slender olive
#

Meanwhile, we crack under pressure like eggs

torn ermine
#

they got ramos, thats why they can keep the pressure

slender olive
#

You do realise, in 2019

#

we were 1 away goal from the Champions league final

#

and we would've surely won

devout geyser
#

Barca has been having that problem since 2016

slender olive
#

(It's spurs)

torn ermine
#

if they dont have ramos, look at their form

devout geyser
#

I mean

slender olive
#

Sigh

#

Is it immature to hope he gets ruled out

devout geyser
#

nacho and varane together have gotten some W's for Real

#

this season

slender olive
#

I hope his form declines massively

#

Rams

#

Ramos

devout geyser
#

Ramos is really consistent

slender olive
#

Fortunately, he's leaving this summer

devout geyser
#

I believe Ramos is gonna stay

#

ngl

slender olive
#

Then real's defence is gonna be free real estate

torn ermine
#

varane becomes kids when ramos isnt with him "most of the time"

#

ngl ramos really helped their team by far

slender olive
#

Varane's crap w/o ramos

devout geyser
#

Varane is still a world class CB

slender olive
#

Yk, Ramos being sent off was the whole reason they lost against City

#

(the 2nd leg)

devout geyser
#

Real Madrid actually played pretty well vs City

slender olive
#

in the first leg they also lost

devout geyser
#

even without Ramos

slender olive
#

No in both legs city dominated them

devout geyser
#

1st leg was unlucky honestly

slender olive
#

actually

devout geyser
#

well it is City

slender olive
#

Nope, in the 1st leg the only goal real scored was bc of city's mistakes

#

I think it was the same in the 2nd

devout geyser
#

nah 2nd it was Rodrygo completely ruining Cancelo

#

Atletico is gonna win La Liga

#

it seems

slender olive
#

I'd rather Atletico won it than any other team if it wasnt us

#

they do deserve it

torn ermine
#

el cholo deserves it

hybrid python
torn ermine
#

i feel bad for him losing 2 finals

slender olive
#

I hope atletico get a CL

torn ermine
#

he at least deserves 1 CL

slender olive
#

someday

#

Maybe this season

hybrid python
#

This year

slender olive
#

But unlikely

hybrid python
#

It seems

slender olive
#

Man, theyve ruined their chances of a treble already

#

How did coernella beat them

torn ermine
#

idek

#

lol

hybrid python
#

Cholo 8d chess man

#

You won’t get it

torn ermine
#

felix also played in that match

devout geyser
#

2014 CL final

#

Simeone made

#

the worst mistake

#

of his life

#

starting not fully fit Diego Costa

hybrid python
#

I don’t wanna see him getting knocked out by team like Leipzig

#

This year

devout geyser
#

dont worry

#

Leipzig gonna beat Liverpool

#

šŸ’‰ šŸ’‰

hybrid python
#

Obvious

#

Lovely fluid team

devout geyser
#

Atleti beating Chelsea

slender olive
devout geyser
#

would love to see Gladbach beat City

#

but unlikely

hybrid python
#

Scenes

#

They defeated bayern

slender olive
#

I want Leipzig to beat Liverpool

torn ermine
#

they actually can tbf

slender olive
#

Atalanta beating madrid would be AMAZING

#

And they can

#

theyre in with a chance

hybrid python
#

Young German coach defeating one of the best German coach in Bundesliga

slender olive
#

Atalanta did beat Liverpool at anfield this season after all

hybrid python
#

Will be scenes man

devout geyser
#

k ill be serious actually

slender olive
#

Who wants atalanta to beat real? EVERYONE

#

except madrid fans ofc

devout geyser
#

not me

hybrid python
#

I see that happening lol

#

With the way they performing

devout geyser
#

I want Spanish clubs to do good

#

in UCL

slender olive
#

Heck actually, I feel that most madrid fans will say fair play and give respect to their oppoment if atalanta beat them

#

Atalanta nearly beat PSG last season, they can beat madrid

#

for sure

hybrid python
#

But but 13 ucl

devout geyser
#

they did it to Ajax

hybrid python
#

🄱

slender olive
#

but but- 2 consecutive round of 16 exits

hybrid python
#

One more time

slender olive
#

Atalanta-real is going to be wild

#

Leipzig-Liverpool too

#

Man theres so many good games tbh

hybrid python
#

Atalanta still the same without papu is unreal

devout geyser
#

my predictions on who will advance:
PSG
Liverpool
Juventus
Sevilla
Atletico
Bayern
Real
City

hybrid python
#

Scoring goals for fun

devout geyser
#

I want Barca to beat PSG

hybrid python
#

Calma calma

slender olive
#

My prediction:
Barca
Leipzig
Juventus
Dortmund
Atletico
Bayern
Atalanta
City

devout geyser
#

but its just

#

unlikely

slender olive
#

we can do it

#

but we have to improve our defence

hybrid python
#

It’s getting better tbh

slender olive
#

PSG arent exactly in a good situation either rn

hybrid python
#

With aruajo leading the line

devout geyser
#

we still have 1 month to go

#

anything can happen

slender olive
#

Yeah, as Mingueza and araujo improves it gets more solid

torn ermine
#

araujo is leading rn, but we need his partner to keep up with him

devout geyser
#

is Pique returning soon

torn ermine
#

idk

#

its ACL, its a long ass injury

devout geyser
#

I want all 4 Spanish teams to go through

#

but I am doubting about Barca and Sevilla

hybrid python
#

Araujo and pique šŸ’‰

#

Perfect

torn ermine
#

pique is good with possession at the back ngl

#

he knows where to pass

devout geyser
#

Barca isnt exactly most trustworthy team when it comes to UCL

hybrid python
#

He’s know for breaking the lines

#

I still love pique

devout geyser
#

and Sevilla is just

#

inconsistent

devout geyser
#

I think Real has enough to beat Atalanta

#

who knows

#

and Atletico should be beating 9th place Chelsea

torn ermine
#

they have the squad to beat them, but form wise idk

hybrid python
#

Not when all the attackers just back pass

slender olive
#

Real are the favourites for the atalanta tie obviously

devout geyser
#

remember Atalanta

#

has

#

really bad defense

slender olive
#

atalanta are in w a chance tho

hybrid python
#

They’ve improved it tho

torn ermine
#

lets see

hybrid python
#

I’ve been catching them recently

devout geyser
#

remember

#

UCL returns in February

#

lots of things can change

#

in 1 month

slender olive
#

atalanta concede a lot

#

they dont keep many clean sheets

hybrid python
#

All our players will be back šŸ¤žšŸ½

devout geyser
#

at this point

#

its about who keeps fitness

slender olive
#

Very impressive

hybrid python
#

We need that super copa so bad

devout geyser
#

@slender olive yeah that was

#

they lost 5-0 to Liverpool

#

at home

torn ermine
#

we just need a silverware

devout geyser
#

so to do that

slender olive
#

Ik

devout geyser
#

is pretty nice

#

this Supercopa can decide lots of factors

hybrid python
#

It will

devout geyser
#

for both Barca and Bilbao

#

for Barca, they need something to show for this season

#

for Bilbao, we need European football

slender olive
#

Do you think taking out papu gomez has actually helped atalanta

devout geyser
#

no

hybrid python
#

Will be so nice winning a title

#

In January

slender olive
#

Yeah

devout geyser
#

Supercopa is confusing though

#

is it Community Shield of Spain or League Cup of Spain

torn ermine
#

supercopa supposed to be at the start of the season

hybrid python
#

Raul said he’s not scared of BarƧa and he’ll beat us dead

slender olive
devout geyser
#

its kind of in between

torn ermine
#

its community shield of spain

devout geyser
#

in past it was at beginning

torn ermine
#

yes

slender olive
#

more like a community shield

devout geyser
#

still better than that fraud cup named Carabao

torn ermine
#

lol

hybrid python
#

Man City cup

torn ermine
#

pep won like domestic treble in england

torn ermine
hybrid python
#

The better one

devout geyser
#

šŸ’‰

#

its crazy how Bilbao havent been in Supercopa final for 6 years basically

#

and last time they were in one, they played Barcelona

hybrid python
#

Ernies Bilbao

#

Defeated us in camp nou

#

I watched that live

devout geyser
#

it was 1-1 at Camp Nou

hybrid python
torn ermine
#

@devout geyser do you want valverde to come back?

hybrid python
#

Nah the 2015 one

devout geyser
#

but absolute massacre at San Mames

slender olive
#

4-0

#

If i remember correctly

devout geyser
#

Aduriz hat trick šŸ’‰

devout geyser
#

I trust Marcelino

torn ermine
#

i mean do you like what valverde has done for bilbao?

devout geyser
#

well

slender olive
#

Valverde is a good high mid table manager

devout geyser
#

Valverde isnt that shit of a coach

hybrid python
#

Valverde told them he wants a solid project to coach bilbao

slender olive
#

He's good at getting mid table clubs into the top 6

devout geyser
#

he just wasnt Barcelona calibre

hybrid python
devout geyser
#

hey he won 2 La Ligas

hybrid python
#

He played for espanyol

devout geyser
#

our team under Valverde

#

please ignore the goalkeeper

hybrid python
#

Yeray Cb ?

devout geyser
#

yeaj

#

yeah

#

the goalkeeper though

#

šŸ’‰ šŸ’‰

hybrid python
#

Double pivot

devout geyser
#

Yeray and Laporte together

hybrid python
#

Solid ngl

devout geyser
#

and then there is a goalkeeper

#

šŸ’‰ šŸ’‰

hybrid python
#

Still the best

#

šŸ’‰

torn ermine
#

is laporte even being used in city?

devout geyser
#

he is on treatment table most of the time

#

its crazy to think Laporte played for us

#

Laporte was really good for us

#

Kepa was 1 of the best goalkeepers in league lmao

#

under Valverde

slender olive
#

Kepa should go back to Bilbao

devout geyser
#

and bench?

slender olive
#

true

devout geyser
#

Unai Simon is great

keen gorge
#

He will not play over Simon

slender olive
#

How do you manage to get such good goalies

devout geyser
#

we produce them

slender olive
#

Unai simon is one of the best GKs itw

devout geyser
#

Kepa was even linked with Real Madrid

#

when he was here

hybrid python
#

Basque in the blood

devout geyser
#

Kepa was a very good goalkeeper

#

and I am thankful for what he did to us

#

thats why I cant meme him a lot

keen gorge
#

Chelsea are a talent graveyard

devout geyser
#

people are saying Kepa was washed but thats untrue

#

at Bilbao, Kepa was reliable

slender olive
#

Kepa can succeed in another environment I feel

#

Perhaps

devout geyser
#

he would do fine in Spain I think

slender olive
#

Yeah

#

He should go to idk villarreal or smth

torn ermine
#

who was the GK for bilbao in 2015 CDR final?

slender olive
#

do villarreal need a new gk?

devout geyser
torn ermine
#

ahh

devout geyser
#

you mean supercopa

#

not cdr

torn ermine
#

CDR i mean

keen gorge
#

If he goes anywhere in Spain he should go to Sevilla or La Real

torn ermine
#

CDR 2015

devout geyser
#

oh wait

torn ermine
#

where messi did the wonder

slender olive
#

that

#

Are we gonna be fine after Messi leaves?

#

Because rn

torn ermine
#

it takes time

slender olive
#

our midfield is slowly improving

hybrid python
slender olive
#

better

torn ermine
#

it will not be instantly fine

#

but it will

slender olive
#

Our midfield of de jong busquets and pedri is doing wonders rn

#

Perhaps busquets wasnt really washed up after all

hybrid python
#

Won’t say anything rn

slender olive
#

Maybe he's slow af but if he has bodies covering him then he looks much better

hybrid python
#

We went from this same phase and started losing

devout geyser
#

in 2015 CDR final

hybrid python
devout geyser
#

Herrerin

#

was in goal

torn ermine
devout geyser
#

we werent gonna win that game

slender olive
#

Remember that Busquets is one of the most intellegent players out there

devout geyser
#

not a chance

#

lmao

slender olive
#

perhaps I was wrong to judge him so quickly
