Last year they were a lot better.People said similar last year, then they only ended up losing the away leg vs Spurs in the CL and won all the others (iirc anyway)

This is nuts lol.. yikes.
They are terrible at signing players... They had Suarez + Messi already as forwards and went after Dembele and Griezman (+Neymar LOLOLOL). Not sure why they think they need 4/5 world class forwards (a bit of a stretch for Dembele, but they paid World Class price for him). they also got Malcom that had a few minutes to show his football and was quickly burned. At the same time they keep having any Spanish or Catalan player (Specially this) because, you know, Spanish and Catalans must be better than other just because they were born there. I personally hate Sergi Roberto, he is way worst than the rest of the team but he usually finds space for an assist whenever Barça is beating a dead dog on the street so the press thinks he is great. I honestly doubt foreing players would want to come to Barça to fight for a position against a Catalan/Spanish player. Busquets and Piqué (this one in special) will never leave the first team, if Van Dijk was in Barça he be Piqué's sub.To be fair, Barça's lineup needs a big shakeup. The best players are all getting quite old, with only Messi truly maintaining a solid (read: fantastic) level of performance IMO. They're not a bad team by any means, but always seem to crumble in elimination matches for some reason or the other.
Yeah, I've had the impression Barça's board hasn't been great at it's job for a while... Messi, with the help of Neymar (for a while) and Suarez has held the club on the top level, internally at least. But you do get the impression that as soon as his form drops or worse, as soon as he retires, Barça is gonna suffer a lot.They are terrible at signing players...

Real does a much better job at loaning young players and bringing they back when they are mature, Barça likes to give young players 3-5 matches (not full matches) and if they dont do superb (even if the team played badly as a whole) then they are burned and will see the way out in the next window.
Barça dominating La Liga + Catalonya newspapers are terrible combination as well, the team can be bad and win 3-0 half the matches and all the newspapers do is praise the team and try to say bad things about Real Madrid... then everytime they lose El Clasico or Atl Madrid or a Champions League match it seems like it is the end of fckng world because they spent 11 months praising the team and then they are kicked out of championship? Makes no sense (they must think)!
wow, time to go big or go home.
AFCON confirmed for next year Jan-Feb. LFC going to lose Salah, Mane and Keita for at least 6 games
I would be very, very pleasantly surprised if United manage to land Bruno Fernandes in this transfer window.
Watch us fuck it up spectacularly.
It's been two days since Setien took over and Puig is already getting called up. Lovely.

Barto and Valverde have pissed away so many talents like him.I wonder if Alena regrets his decision.
I want to see more Fati.
Yeah, I'm hyped about Fati. I want to see more of him. I thought Samper wasn't that good.Barto and Valverde have pissed away so many talents like him.
There's word that Setien is interested in Samper and Ansu will definitely be starting games a lot more from now on.
With Suarez out, now is the perfect time for Fati to shine.
Not a chance. Watch them get mysteriously injured before the tournament so they can't travel and then miraculously recover when it's too late to be in the squadsAFCON confirmed for next year Jan-Feb. LFC going to lose Salah, Mane and Keita for at least 6 games

I tihnk the DM might be the only one of the lot that thought Hitler wasn't too bad a bloke, and their attitude has barely changed since.Why is the Daily Mail specifically banned when all the other shitty tabloids are allowed?

No I'm fairly sure with the DM its just that they are a piece of shit racist shitehole. Not one particular article.It's not like the Sun or Express are that much better, I assume there was one particular story led to then getting banned
And there won't be much to spend next summer either. Özil not mincing around lolIt was obvious from what Arteta said before that there"s no money to spend in this window
