Not his fault the coach is clueless.

what can I say?
I'm not in the team trainings.
having skill doesn't equal standard 11 postion

Doesnt have to.

But he is a young kid, wasnt given a chance at all, let alone starting 11.

I still don't get the Cesc-addiction... Oh well, nothing we can do about it.

Would've we need another forward btw if both Bojan and Jeffren leave? Even after signing Sanchez we'd only have four forwards plus Afellay who could play on the wings. That's a little too thin up front imo.

And lol at your sig

Villa, Messi, Pedro , Affelay and Sanchez is enough imo. The only reason it was thin last year because it was basically Villa, Messi and Pedro being backed up Bojan and Jeffren who are not good enough to come in for any of aforenamed forwards if they are unfit, lacking form etc etc.

Affelay and Sanchez imo are so it wont be a problem personally.

As for the Cesc addiction its crazy, Barca have 5 forwards for 3 positons ( presuming Sanchez signs) 7 midfielders for 3 positions and 3 cb's for 2 positions and one is Fontas LOL.

Any sane man should know Sanchez and a CB should take priority but as i have discussed many times before Pep is'nt sane

`Bojan close to sign for Roma..
rumours: fee is between 8 & 12M
BUT with buyback clause!

`Jeffren has an offer from Valencia... a while aho i heard that Fulham are ready to pay 8M for Jeffren lol:P

` Sanchez deal is driving me crazy:S
we should have signed him by now..
Rumours: Barca offer is 26M Cash + 11M variables ( depending on Sanchez playing time, trophies won by Barca etc..)

` Barca selled Victor Sanchez for Xamax ( Swiss Team) we have a buyback option until 30 January 2012!lol

` We signed Kiko for 2M ( + 1.5M Variables) he will play in B team in his first year..

Sucks for Soriano, hope he gets out and finds himself a good team to start with. He is getting old

I agree kizz. So far this has been the most boring summer transfer window. However that may mean it will get crazily exciting towards the end.

P.S. - We can discuss some very specific matters in our sanctuary. I do visit it from time to time to share some interesting tidbits with you all.

Also your idea of having a chat was good and I have never thought of it before. Maybe we can decide a convenient date and time when some of us can log on to Yahoo, Gtalk or Skype and then just chat for a few hours or so. I would like to know what all Barcelona fans think of this idea.

what do u think?

I like that. It sounds like a win-win for all concerned.

Immaculate_Mole wrote:Pep is'nt sane

Well if an insane man can get the team to play that kind of otherworldly football and win so many trophies at such a rate then I don't want a sane man in charge of our team. BTW please note carefully that doesn't mean I am recommending Diego Maradona or Raymond Domenech for our next coach.

Khaledbarca wrote:Barcelona don't want to finalize the transfer of Bojan to Roma until after they've signed Udinese attacker Alexis Sanchez. [rac1]

That's exactly what I expected.

About A.Sanchez his team mate has kind of hinted the deal would have been done by now but has not been done only because the Udinese president is a very hard nut to crack and will spend a lot of time debating every detail trying to squeeze as much as possible. The deal will happen eventually with 95% probability. That's because no way will that money monger keep the player knowing very well next summer it's very unlikely he will command a similar price if he stays at Udinese. Also A.Sanchez's clear preference for us has kind of thrown other clubs such as ManCity out of the picture at least for the time being.

Khaledbarca wrote:Zubizarreta (sports director): "If we don't get a good offer for Soriano, he'll start with the B-team. He won't be promoted." [via fcb.cat]

That's very significant info. It makes it very clear that we are sure he will never be good enough for us. For the sake of the player I hope he leaves and makes a good career somewhere else.

@JD: An excellent idea for the chat. I was just thinking this. This is why I asked Dani about chatting online. I think it would be a useful tool to have in the sanctuary perhaps... I haven't looked at that forum much either do to not much to discuss, but I'm considering maybe changing it to a forummotion site as well. I will look into it.

----

Jono D.S: A great idea, I think he's not going to make it at Barca and he'd be a good makeweight in any deal because he'd be very handy for a team like Udinese.

Soriano: As I thought. I explained before he's not much of a Pep striker. He'll do great as a frontman elsewhere. He's big, strong and skillful. We should try to fetch some cash for him because he's developed incredibly under Barca.

Kiko: Good to see he's finally signed. Maybe its unnecessary, but at least something has happened lol.

kizz, glad to know you liked the idea. Let us know what you decide and then we can see how much participation we can get.

Fantastic idea, we could all get together on Skype like the Juventus guys do and discuss Barca matters instead of Juventus ofc.

I should make it clear he's not sane when it comes to the Fabregas transfer

But what could go wrong with appointing Maradona as coach with Domenech as his number 2? :lol!:

Skype is good for me, im always about.

Skype is good for me... but I created a chatlobby on the BarcaForum, may as well give it a try right??

French left back defender Eric Abidal (31), whose contract expires in 2012, doesn't accept the renewal offer made by Barcelona. [md]

Just logged on to Twitter and it really irritated me. One reason is this report. The other is that Pozzo says forget any deal there have been no satisfactory discussions on Alexis Sanchez. So that means all these days we were discussing hot air. Also why is Abidal not agreeing to the renewal?

I saw it kizz. Good one. Now we just need to decide a date and time at which some of us can log on simultaneously and have at least a few minutes for some chatting.

I'm on now with JD.

Yeah, that too. Skype is just easier because whenever the PC is on, im online.

BarcaForum chatlobby is equally as good of course, its just it takes a conscious effort for me to get on there lol
