#

well yeah

#

but we cant use same tactic over and over again

grim thicket
#

would it be good to see us playing with great buildup? yeah sure

stone fox
#

2012 was when we played some of the finest football world has ever seen

grim thicket
#

but we have to take into consideration that the quality of players aint the same as it was 3 seasons ago

gritty lava
#

i miss ancelotti

#

mourinho was good aswell

stone fox
grim thicket
#

we are going through transitions, you just gotta accept that there will be some errors

stone fox
#

yes but we cant go trophyless

#

thats unacceptable

gritty lava
#

2021 is gonna be an overhaul

grim thicket
#

do you think zidane gets sacked if we go trophyless?

stone fox
#

possibly

gritty lava
#

this year is just a transition year

grim thicket
#

who would you want to replace him?

gritty lava
#

2009 all over again

grim thicket
#

yep

stone fox
#

thats another problem

grim thicket
#

exactly

stone fox
#

who would we replace zidane with

grim thicket
#

its 2008-09 all over again

stone fox
#

oh god

#

dont tell me we have to get 5-0ed by Barca

#

wait we cant

#

Barca are crap as well

grim thicket
stone fox
#

allegri plays defensive football

#

not exactly our style

grim thicket
#

altho nagelsmann is a bit too young

gritty lava
#

i fear that zidane would be changed with raul

stone fox
#

oh god

#

raul isnt ready

grim thicket
#

like i said, i dont care at all about style, allegri is a winning manager

stone fox
#

for top stage

grim thicket
#

thats what we need, to win

gritty lava
#

hey zidane was like that aswell

stone fox
#

another problem is language barrier

grim thicket
#

mate zidane worked under the tutelage of possibly 3 of the greatest managers of this decade

#

ancelotti, mourinho and pep

stone fox
#

yeah true

grim thicket
#

so its a way different situation than what raul is in

stone fox
#

yeah

gritty lava
#

sarri ball with be rly nice as well but that defense would suffer

stone fox
#

what

#

no

grim thicket
#

NOT SARRI

stone fox
#

Sarri is a big no

livid yoke
#

lol, Sarri

#

he would sign Jorginho and Higuain

grim thicket
#

NEVER SARRI

livid yoke
stone fox
#

higuain played for us

#

was good

livid yoke
#

yeah ik

#

but was no Benzema

gritty lava
#

pochettino should have been the next in line

stone fox
#

i feel bad for poch

gritty lava
#

psg are thriving

stone fox
#

taking psg I fear was a mistake

grim thicket
#

what about somebody like Guti?

stone fox
#

cuz they arent patient

stone fox
grim thicket
#

he is doing okayish at almeria

gritty lava
#

ole at the wheel

stone fox
#

us hiring Guti would be same scenario as Chelsea hiring Lampard

#

and you know how that went

grim thicket
#

i dont think lampard was the only one to blame, but yeah

#

he just was the scapegoat, but chelsea's problems go way deeper

#

but thats another conversation, not for #la-liga

stone fox
#

yeah

#

i just brought him up as example

#

I think we need a coach that can build squads

#

last time we had someone like that was Jose Mourinho

gritty lava
#

heynckes was good at real but that guy is old now

stone fox
#

heynckes is extremely old

grim thicket
#

heynckes was so underrated at real

#

dont rlly know why he got sacked

#

dressing room riot?

gritty lava
#

97/98 real were gods

stone fox
#

heynckes also made that 2013 bayern squad

#

good coach

#

but very old

grim thicket
#

nagelsmann is that kind of manager, and he can work rlly well with youngsters

stone fox
#

nagelsmann is a bit too young though

grim thicket
#

but he is younger than some of the real dressing room veterans lol

gritty lava
#

problem is real doesnt have that many youngsters

grim thicket
#

yeah

stone fox
#

we have decent youngsters

#

that we can promote

grim thicket
#

i would love to see nagelsmann managing us some time in the future tho

stone fox
#

from our academy

gritty lava
#

look at milan

#

they are filled with youngsters and they are achieving

stone fox
#

thing is

#

we were never a youth academy team

grim thicket
#

we have so many youngsters out on loan

stone fox
#

that was barca

#

but la masia is dead

stone fox
#

seemed like best young striker itw

#

one of the best

gritty lava
#

llorente for ex is playing super well for atleti yet real let him go

stone fox
#

we let him go to Atleti out of all the teams

gritty lava
#

they are to desperate to keep playing the same team for 8 years now

grim thicket
#

zidane was never great at working with young stars

#

he was at castilla, but he was never great

stone fox
#

zidane did develop valverde

grim thicket
#

i think solari developed valverde

stone fox
#

ok solari was good with youngsters

#

but then ajax happened

gritty lava
#

yeah but imagine if he developed jovic and theo

#

and give militao a better chance

stone fox
#

reguilon was good under solari

grim thicket
#

i think we were too impatient on solari there, man couldnt catch a break

stone fox
#

he wasnt that bad

#

much better than lopetegui

#

but cska moscow 3-0

grim thicket
#

sure going trophyless was an issue, but we are going through a transition, what do you expect

stone fox
#

and ajax 4-1

stone fox
#

its crazy cuz

#

on paper our team wasnt that bad

grim thicket
#

yeah

stone fox
#

im still not over us selling Ronaldo ngl

gritty lava
#

ronaldo is the top goalscorer in history no one is over him

#

with him real lost an extra 40 goals a season

stone fox
#

except pele

#

wait

gritty lava
#

pele got 757

grim thicket
#

sure ronaldo prlly had two three more seasons in him, maybe a bit more, but we couldnt have been ronaldo fc mate

#

the club is bigger than just 1 player

#

same goes for ramos, as much as he is a legend, we need to let him go at some time

stone fox
#

I think rn

#

we just gotta accept

#

and be patient

grim thicket
#

šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

#

thats what i have been saying

#

most madridistas dont agree with me

#

but its necessary

stone fox
#

we probably will need 1-2 fucked up seasons

#

and then we will click

#

and go back to dominance

grim thicket
#

exactly

gritty lava
#

alaba is gonna be a weird one

stone fox
#

I think alaba could work for us

#

because he wont be bothered

grim thicket
#

is alaba a done deal? i didnt see anything on fabrizio's tweets

stone fox
#

by transfer rumors

stone fox
#

and then comunicado oficial

covert monolith
#

wow never even heard he was leaving

grim thicket
#

ah, but a big salary tho

covert monolith
#

this is the first time i'm hearing about it

stone fox
#

idk if we will sign him fully

#

depends

grim thicket
#

idk how to feel about alaba's deal

#

a lot of money there

#

dont know how that translates to his performances

stone fox
#

he will be 29

#

by the time he joins us

#

29 for a CB isnt bad though

grim thicket
#

yeah it isnt, but you never know

gritty lava
#

we should have gotten upamecano

grim thicket
#

look at aubameyang, he was playing like prime henry last season

gritty lava
#

or one of the rb centre backs

grim thicket
#

and now he cant even look at a goal

stone fox
#

Mundo Deportivo says Joachim Low is 1 of candidates for RMA job

#

yeah this is fake

gritty lava
#

noooo low

#

seeing what he's doing with germany wouldnt be such a great idea

grim thicket
#

its mundo deportivo mate

stone fox
#

yeah

grim thicket
#

take that with a grain of salt lmao

#

they say lots of bullshit

#

so does marca

gritty lava
#

MartĆ­nez would be nice tho

#

he's been linked with real for 2 years now

stone fox
#

who

gritty lava
#

the guy who coaches belgium

stone fox
#

oh hell no

#

he was sacked by Everton

#

like Koeman

covert monolith
#

wait why

#

is zidane abt to be sacked?

gritty lava
#

zidane is on a constant tight rope

covert monolith
#

ehhh

gritty lava
#

man lets just get solskjƦr and call it a day šŸ¤£

grave glen
#

what about garado

grave glen
grim thicket
#

zidane is always about to be sacked.....and then he's not

#

its a weird situation

grave glen
#

one footballs vid

stone fox
#

I remember ESPN saying Zidane wouldnt last until Christmas after 7-3 friendly loss vs Atleti

grave glen
#

metioned river plates coach

covert monolith
#

everytime they suffer a bad loss they always say he's bout to be sacked

stone fox
#

Gallardo?

#

he was linked with Barca

#

to replace Valverde

gritty lava
#

there was marcelino aswell

stone fox
#

instead they got Setien

covert monolith
#

i think part of it is that madrid don't really have a perfect person lined up to be manager

#

they probably think sacking zidane and almost anyone they go to would be a downgrade

grave glen
#

and has done good

#

so thats a start

stone fox
#

@covert monolith sacking a coach that won you 3 peat

#

of course its difficult

grave glen
#

river plate are 2nd in their champions group

#

but did not make it to the finals

#

bruh there is a club called barcelona sc

torn ermine
#

yeah thats from ecuardorian league

keen gorge
#

The last time Barcelona had an Argentinian manager things fell apart

#

I think European coaches are better tactically than South American managers except a few

grave glen
#

@grim thicket sorry for šŸ…±ļøing just wanted to ask you, do you think ramos will extend? I really cant imagine Real Madrid without him and him in another jersey

grim thicket
#

lol i dont rlly know, only one confirmed so far is modric

#

even Lucas is rejecting rn

#

lets see how it goes

#

but ig we would have to move on from him at some point dont we

grave glen
#

He is your Captain he cant leave you

#

šŸ˜”

grim thicket
#

so was casillas, and raul....its all temporary

#

ig i am mentally prepared for it

simple matrix
#

ramos leaving gonna hurt more than ronnie šŸ˜©

grim thicket
#

šŸ˜¢ we gotta deal with it

#

i thought raul leaving was the worst

#

then it was ronnie

#

now its time for el capitan

simple matrix
#

šŸ˜­

covert monolith
#

apparently real madrid wont make an offer to Ramos

#

we are free of the pain he's brought to us

stone fox
#

not really

covert monolith
#

wdym?

stone fox
#

we are still gonna find a way to finish 2nd

iron marten
#

Ramos come back to Sevilla

#

Your home

grim thicket
#

give us kounde, take away ramos wenger

iron marten
#

Hell no

calm magnet
grim thicket
#

its inevitable lit, if not now, then maybe in 2 years

#

been through this pain every time a legend leaves

#

just gotta deal with it and move on

iron marten
#

A lot of RMA & Barca legends are gone

calm magnet
grim thicket
#

its gonna be difficult seeing ramos and modric go

calm magnet
#

I don't wanna see them go :(((

iron marten
#

Just like Ronaldo, bye bye

#

It's time for a new start

calm magnet
#

I dont want a new start

#

Ramos is our only hope in keeping Varane from fucking up every game

iron marten
#

Everything has an end

potent spade
#

Should go back to Sevilla would be epic

#

I posted that already

stone fox
noble raft
grim thicket
#

im not sure how to feel about alaba

#

on one hand he is 28 and in his prime

#

but his wages are massive

#

and what if he underperforms

calm magnet
#

yeah

#

but hes surely a solid starter

#

but I dont know if he is specifically needed

#

especially rn during covid

grim thicket
#

yeah

feral palm
#

Marcelo - Alaba - Varane - Odriozola šŸ”„

Back line looking fire next season

stone fox
#

Odriozola?

#

Marcelo?

feral palm
#

While we got Gaya - Lenglet - Araujo - Dest

stone fox
#

Gaya costs around 70m

feral palm
#

On fifa career mode maybe

stone fox
#

you cant even afford anyone

feral palm
#

Valencia willing to sell him for 15M in the summer

#

15M is nothing even when were 1.2b in debt

livid yoke
stone fox
#

he will have more clubs looking at him

livid yoke
#

isn't Marcelo meant to be shit?

stone fox
#

Mendy is starting

#

lmao

feral palm
#

I was being sarcastic

stone fox
#

and at RB, we still have Carvajal

feral palm
#

Marcelo kinda trash

#

Carvajal injury prone these days

#

And LV not renewing

stone fox
#

Atleti is clearly gonna win La Liga this and next season

feral palm
#

You'll want to get a new rb

livid yoke
livid yoke
#

so Peter Lim is actually permanently trippin then

feral palm
#

Oh yeah ofc

#

He sells club legends at low low prices

livid yoke
#

I mean I knew that

#

I just didn't know how bad it was

feral palm
#

Which is something we, as barcelona, respect

#

šŸ˜”

livid yoke
feral palm
#

Hes the worst owner in spain rn

#

After bartomeu's resignation

#

You could even argue who was worse between them

#

And I'd be inclined to say Lim

livid yoke
#

so who did he sell last summer? Parejo, Torres and Rodrigo right?

feral palm
#

Coquelin too

livid yoke
#

oh right yeah

feral palm
#

Kondogbia

livid yoke
#

it doesn't even make sense to sell at low prices, idk what he's playing at

covert monolith
livid yoke
#

there are bad owners but at least someone like Mike Ashley is trying to do the best thing for himself

covert monolith
#

he was really good the last 2 years

livid yoke
#

Lim is just nonsensical

feral palm
#

Liverpool fans don't actually realise how good they have it rn, and I'm not saying your owners arent bad but in comparison to some la liga presidents.. you're in dreamland

devout geyser

Atleti winning La Liga next szn

livid yoke
feral palm
#

Same with united fans

livid yoke
#

people criticising FSG don't know what Hicks and Gillett were like lmao

covert monolith
#

oof bad gif

livid yoke
#

PL fans have been pretty spoilt when it comes to owners generally

covert monolith
#

looks cursed

feral palm
#

@livid yoke I don't understand why there's no criticism being put on the youth academy because it's times like this where you should be looking for youth prospects to break through and prove themselves as worthy of being in the first team but it seems to have gone tits up if the only person offering his service is Rhys Williams

stone fox
#

Atleti look too solid

#

they winning La Liga this season and possibly next szn

feral palm
#

Same with united who according to fans have "the best youth academy in the world" but want to spend 120M on jadon Sancho when that money could be pumped into player development

devout geyser
#

united dont even have better academy than us

#

lol

feral palm
#

La liga presidents have these youth academies at their disposal, some of them world class, but they run the club so badly that they become redundant and nothing but money making machines

If I was manager of Barcelona; 2021/22 seasons squad would start with

Goalkeepers
1st Choice: Marc Andre Ter Stegen
2nd Choice: Inaki PeƱa
3rd Choice: Arnau Tenas
Emergency Backup: Lazar Carevic

Left Backs
1st Choice: JosƩ Gaya [15M]
2nd Choice: Jordi Alba
3rd Choice: Alejandro BaldƩ
Emergency Backup: SergiƱo Dest

Right Backs
1st Choice: SergiƱo Dest
2nd Choice: Emerson Royal [0M]
3rd Choice: Oscar Mingueza
Emergency Backup: Sergi Rosanas

Center Backs
1st Choice: Ronald Araujo, Clement Lenglet
2nd Choice: Oscar Mingueza, Eric Garcia [0M]
3rd Choice: Gerard Pique
Emergency Backup: Frenkie De Jong

Which means Sales of;
Neto [15M]
Junior Firpo [20M]
Sergi Roberto [20M]
Samuel Umtiti [15M]
Jean-Clair Todibo [15M]

Promotions for;
Inaki PeƱa
Oscar Mingueza

Breakthrough for;

Premier league get much more TV revenue than most La Liga teams except RM and barca

oh ok

feral palm
#

Which makes sense. Because as I said, it's peter lim

topaz crest
#

seems like a solid buy then

feral palm
#

If it's not Gaya it's Juan Bernat

#

On a free transfer

feral palm
elfin flower
#

Can he though?

feral palm
#

Just like Frenkie played Center Back when Araujo and Lenglet were out

elfin flower
#

Cuz from what I've seen, people find it difficult to play in their mirror position

feral palm
#

He did fine at left back when he came in

elfin flower
#

Mirror -> RW and LW, or LB and RB

feral palm
#

Remember he came in and alba got injured

#

So his first few games were at LB

#

And he did quite well

topaz crest
#

well wingers that can play on both sides are quite common

elfin flower
#

Yep, but didn't they play him centrally that game

feral palm
#

As I said, emergency backup, so it's not an ideal situation that I'd hope for, but it's a fine fix until it works itself out

topaz crest
#

its more rare with full backs, but if their second foot is good it isnt a bad idea

feral palm
#

There's a reason I have 3 names in front of him

topaz crest
#

take Hakimi who played on both sides

feral palm
#

If you want I can put Lenglet as emergency backup left back

#

I think he's played there once or twice this season

after these fixtures i would say would be 2nd in the leauge at least

#

but might be still the same 10 points behind atleti

#

who have games that they should easily win

thin ivy
#

We got levante, huesca, getafe, valencia, valladolid and atalanta

#

Basically smaller clubs that we underestimate and lose against

#

We're gonna play like we're in the UCL first half, score some and second half we're gonna act like we're up against a third division team's junior side and concede 2 goals and lose 30% possession

#

Atalanta are no small club

Also vini dribbles from LB position to the stands and doesnt do anything with the ball

Winning against Almeria is a must, but I feel like they won't be as easy as many people would think. They easily won 5-0 against Alaves, but let's see what happens. This cup is unpredictable, we've seen a lot of small teams beating big clubs. An example for that are Real Madrid and AtlĆØtico Madrid. I'm hoping that we won't underestimate them.

Why are AtlƩtico So Good? | How Suarez, Carrasco & Llorente Have Ch...

With the signings Atletico made this season, including Luis Suarez and the permanent deal for Yannick Carrasco, things are looking better in the attack. Marcos Llorenteā€™s change from holding midfielder to attacker was revolutionary. Atletico Madrid are La Liga favourites, somewhat unexpectedly, as Real Madrid and Barcelona look a shadow of thems...

HALAAAAAH MADRIDDDDDD

thin ivy
#

Lets go bilbao

torn ermine
#

my prediction is 50:50 for this match
either we beat them 2-1 or the other way around

thin ivy
#

Theyre gonna beat you

#

Realistically speaking

torn ermine
#

but realistically speaking, we all know we are gonna concede when lenglet starts

#

šŸ¤­

feral palm
thin ivy
#

And they still have their momentum

torn ermine
#

yeah thats why im saying its 50:50

#

it could go either way

#

we beat them in the league before that super cup

#

hopefully umtiti starts tomorrow

grave glen
#

its tommorow

torn ermine
#

oh yeah

#

my bad

grave glen
#

i really want to mingueza and araujo

torn ermine
#

mingueza is too risky to start at CB

#

he is sometimes a mistake prone

grave glen
#

he is young

torn ermine
#

ik, thats why its risky

#

as i said

grave glen
#

not as bad lenglet

torn ermine
#

umtiti has performed real good in his last couple of games

grave glen
#

id still start him

#

not now but once we seal 2nd and atleti wins the league then start him

torn ermine
#

also its bilbao

#

they are the real challenge, araujo is the only one i can depend on rn

grave glen
#

and some have already tipped him as the next puyol which i dont really see

#

and i mean puyol was just an outfield goalkeeper

#

the man would put his body on the line

torn ermine
#

puyol is a different breed

#

he is truly the heart of iron

ah yes

Yeah they're saying the club basically pays him 555 million over 4 years from 2017

devout geyser
#

and they are wondering why their club is in debt

icy crypt
#

That is crazy man

#

555 million!!!

#

That's the biggest contract in sports history

devout geyser
#

I mean

#

I wouldnt reject it

#

my life would be complete

#

lmao

icy crypt
#

Oh I don't blame Messi lmao

#

Who wouldn't take that

devout geyser
#

I would

#

lmao

icy crypt
#

He must be a billionaire soon

devout geyser
#

I would take that contract

#

lmao

icy crypt
#

Everyone would lmao

devout geyser
#

thats not exactly Messi's fault

icy crypt
#

What normal person would give that contract though

#

That's the problem here

devout geyser
#

Josep Maria Bartomeu

#

the goat

#

and not to mention that season this occured

#

where was Messi

left sun
alpine socket
#

The agenda to disgrace messi is clearly working

#

If you believe messi gets 500m after 4 years, so should not forget that Messi generates 300m every year for barcelona

#

Considering, that even with covid year Messi must have generated at least 1000m for club for last 4 years

#

Bartomeu and co simply spent 750m on transfers with no good output except few, whose wage and price were sky high

#

So, let us forget this all and blame Messi. Messi is the cause, ryt?

#

Leaking of any contract shows how the club management works

stone fox
#

no lmao

#

Messi would be foolish to decline 555m for 5 years

#

anyone would accept that contract

#

thats lots of money

devout geyser
#

but thats the point

#

Messi is whats keeping Barca "competitive"

#

and he also earns basically their entire wage bill

#

if Messi leaves, they will save lots of wages

#

however

#

they will collapse without Messi

#

so its a lose/lose situation

keen gorge
#

But which team is willing to pay his wages?

devout geyser
alpine socket
#

Do you really think half of fans who come to camp nou are really those who want to watch Barca playing?

#

Around 65-70% merchandise sales comes from messi

#

Messi is one of the reason why barca get such huge sponsors. Even with that huge wage, he easily generates a 500m+ PROFIT for barca during these 4 years

#

First of all, why would any board pay this much for a player? Answer is simple, they clearly know be generators nearly more than what he is being paid

rapid cliff
#

even if Messi leaves Barca, I am still gonna support this club because I grew up supporting it alongside my hometown club Benfica

alpine socket
#

It's ridiculous to blame a player for the bankruptcy situation the club is in

#

Without Messi barca wouldn't even have qualified for ucl for last 3 years

rapid cliff
#

well everyone knows Messi earns the most in our club

#

thats why they point fingers at him

alpine socket
#

Yeah

rapid cliff
#

but people forget to realize that Messi is our best player

alpine socket
#

Best source of revenue too. Around 1000m from last 4 years (-200m due to covid)

devout geyser
#

but how will you guys respond to Messi leaving

rapid cliff
#

its gonna happen some day

#

we just gotta accept it

alpine socket
#

Positive. Wages will be lower, he deserves better

rapid cliff
#

Negative part is that we will suffer a lot

alpine socket
rapid cliff
#

but if Real Madrid are able to stand up even after Ronaldo left them, we have to do the same

alpine socket
#

Not with this squad for sure

rapid cliff
#

yah

#

this squad needs complete overhaul

#

Messi and Ter Stegen are our saviours

#

without those 2, we would crumble

alpine socket
#

Leaking a contract is such a huge mess they have created

rapid cliff
#

thats obviously on Bartomeu

#

and those clowns he had in the boardroom

alpine socket
#

Tusquests is still here and the election is in March

rapid cliff
#

when Messi signed that contract in 2017, I was happy but also had some doubts over our future

alpine socket
#

I'm sure they will turn Messi into a villain

rapid cliff
#

and those doubts were justified

#

1st Roma happened

#

then Liverpool

#

and then Bayern

alpine socket
#

People forget what happened in 1st leg of Liverpool game

rapid cliff
#

and what happened in 1st leg of Roma

#

though Messi didnt score, he played well

#

and obviously he scored 2 goals (a good free kick) vs Liverpool

alpine socket
#

Once Messi leaves this club will be exposed

rapid cliff
#

but in 2nd leg in both of those games, defense went afk

rapid cliff
#

transition period happens everywhere

devout geyser
#

whats worrying for Barca is that even with Messi, you guys are underperforming

#

so without Messi, it could become a huge disaster

alpine socket
#

We never gave chance for a team to set

rapid cliff
#

we rushed

#

this has been going on since that Neymar sale

alpine socket
#

Simply buying and then selling them

rapid cliff
#

we basically threw away 222m for nothing

alpine socket
#

Remember how arthur was hyped once as next Xavi

#

And later sold him boom

rapid cliff
#

and then we trade him for Pjanic

#

Pjanic is a good player but he is 30

#

he is old

#

Arthur is 23

alpine socket
#

Vidal bought for around 18m not sure, but gave him free

rapid cliff
#

Rakitic sale also free

#

and dont even get me started on Suarez

alpine socket
#

and griez

rapid cliff
#

Suarez sale was nail in the coffin

devout geyser
#

Barca used that Neymar money on Dembele and Coutinho

alpine socket
#

Suarez should have been sold once we had a number 9

rapid cliff
#

1st of all selling Neymar was clearly a mistake

#

but idiotic release clause

devout geyser
#

release clause rule is harsh sometimes

#

but it can also help

#

La Liga uses it to keep itself stable

alpine socket
#

Yeah, neymar money wasted nearly

rapid cliff
#

I have faith in Dembele

#

but we spent 105m on him

alpine socket
#

But 100m was high

rapid cliff
#

and Coutinho...

#

140m

alpine socket
#

also their salaries

rapid cliff
#

and then Griezmann 125m

#

105+140+125=370

#

we basically threw away 370m

alpine socket
#

And how much for defenders?

rapid cliff
#

uhh

alpine socket
#

nothing except lenglet perhaps

rapid cliff
#

40m for Lenglet

#

which was overpaying

#

and looking at how shit he is

#

thats 410m gone

#

with Vidal 20m so 430m

#

40m on Paulinho just to sell him back to China lmao

alpine socket
#

There you go

rapid cliff
#

we actually paid 26m on Neto?

alpine socket
#

Malcom 30m

rapid cliff
#

joke club

alpine socket
#

Now neto wants to leave

devout geyser
#

Pjanic 60m

#
  • Arthur
#

šŸ„¶

rapid cliff
#

wait

#

Mina

#

ffs

#

I forgot we bought him

alpine socket
#

only de Jong looks reasonable

#

Even that's a bit more

rapid cliff
#

75m for De Jong is overpaying tbh

#

50m would be good deal for him

alpine socket
#

He is paying it off now tho

rapid cliff
#

but De Jong is actually good

#

so he gets a pass

alpine socket
#

But rest are shit signings

rapid cliff
#

I actually believe Paulinho was good for us

#

40m overpaying though

#

30m wouldve been fine

#

but selling him back to China right away

alpine socket
#

150m Coutinho, guy won ucl against us srsly

rapid cliff
#

scored twice and assisted vs us

#

idk why we even let him play

#

vs us

#

but again

#

Bartomeu

#

šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

#

Coutinho was bound to flop though

#

we didnt need more CAMs

#

and he played on LW

alpine socket
#

How do u even play with messi, coutinho and griez at same time

rapid cliff
#

we were obsessed with attack

#

and in the end only Messi and Suarez turned out to be good

alpine socket
#

Yea lol

rapid cliff
#

as for defense, we completely ignored it

#

and well

#

you see what happened

devout geyser
#

it feels like Barca's destruction peak was clear when Neymar was sold but I feel like it was clear even before that

rapid cliff
#

oh yeah it was

#

that 3-0 loss vs Juve was showing it

simple matrix
devout geyser
#

I would say Carrasco though

alpine socket
#

Well, neymar cash could have been a good thing

rapid cliff

yeah if we got a good LW

(which we did not)

I mean if PSG trash us, I wont even be shocked

its expected at this point

simple matrix

but this time there is 2 legs

and 1st leg is at Camp Nou

so even if we win, we will most likely bottle in 2nd leg

alpine socket
#

We'll be leading in first leg for sure

and then bottle 2nd leg

simple matrix
#

barca dont look as invincible at home like the past tho

#

even shitty juve tanked them 3-0

rapid cliff

bro Im expecting PSG to beat us at Camp Nou

#

and then slaughter us at Parc de Princes

Only Stegen can save us

I cant imagine Mbappe running towards Lenglet

and not conceding a goal

Lenglet should be rested

you know

I wasnt shocked

that we lost

shows the state of the club

This season Messi has scored 11 goals and our next best is 5 from griezmann

And third comes Fati with 4

And then 3 from de jong

then he went to Chelsea and became a huge meme

besides cl madrid is different breed

also I feel like Real is basically guaranteed to win CL if they are in final

if we played Real in final, we wouldve probably lost ngl

we couldve done a 5 peat

idiot Morata

im not sure we couldve won it definitely but yeah we wouldnt be rolled as juventus for sure

juve got lucky

#

we dominated them

in both legs

but an idiotic penalty

#

and an unlucky Bale offside goal

#

ffs

simple matrix
#

yeah that season started so epic 22 unbeaten run, classico win then modric gets injured and everything falls apart

stone fox
#

in final, juve showed their true colors

#

couldnt do anything vs barca

#

I wanted them to beat Barca but I knew they would lose

keen gorge
#

Allegri was under too much pressure to prove himself

rapid cliff
#

tbh Juve wasnt as good as people think

#

they just had really easy route

#

Dortmund and Monaco....

simple matrix
#

the first half was pretty even but barca took control of the mid in the second half and outclassed them

rapid cliff
#

once Suarez scored for us

#

it was basically over

#

lmao

simple matrix
rapid cliff
#

did they?

simple matrix
#

definitely had 102 points in some season i think its that one the peak juve

rapid cliff
#

nope they didnt

#

they had 87 points

simple matrix
#

must be mistaken then

#

yeah it was the 13-14 season 102 points

rapid cliff
#

yeah

#

14/15 we beat Bayern

#

and then 5 years later....

stone fox
#

8-2

rapid cliff
#

yeah

simple matrix
#

that was good tie barca v bayern 5-3 aggregate i think

rapid cliff
#

tbh Bayern were missing key players

#

but it was sort of revenge for 2013

#

when they slapped us 7-0

#

because Vilanova was ill

simple matrix
#

mullered šŸ˜†

rapid cliff
#

tbh 8-2 is way worse than that 7-0

#

7-0 happened over 2 legs

#

yeah but everyone kind of suspected it'd be a thrashing maybe not 8 goals but yeah
