I guess you are one of those who think sexism only applies to women.

Try not to offend somebody in 2015: good luck.

Impertinent.

Which sexist comments?

On topic, it's getting obvious by the day that Enrique is merely looking to upgrade his résumé, locking down our future is the last thing on his mind. I don't blame him, it's not like he's a tactical pioneer or a charismatic motivator to carry on his Barca legacy elsewhere.

I can't wait for the day when my club can actually rely on a genuine football mind with a long term vision. No more impostors.

Which sexist comment? I can only remember one instance when a member made a sexist comment on this board and he was immediately called out on it by myself and jd.

Why the hell would Grimaldo agree to sign an extension to play in the B team when he can start for a good team elsewhere.
Plain logic. No fault of the board whatsoever.
This is again part of the devious agenda to apportion all success to the players/coach but assign all the blame squarely on the board.
The board should be credited for Deulofeu's sale(with a very low buyback clause) after Enrique in his infinite wisdom nearly ruined him. Deulofeu is shining now and thanks to the board, we can potentially get a WC player in a couple of years time.
The caveat being that Enrique is shown the door and we get in a coach who actually trusts talented youngsters.

some players the agents should tell them to stay away from social media so their little brains couldn't mess up what little chances they could get.

Its some other guy, Robert from fluminense still joins Barca b

Please keep posts like these out of here. Respect everyone equally because those posts do nothing but makes you look immature while making the place unwelcome to other people who don't come here to read posts like that.

Okay I apologize if I came as sexist ther, it was light hearted jab at our beloved Futbol. Am sure neither me nor Linetty meant any disrespect for anyone.

I don't understand why we want to sign anyone. We'll have Arda and Vidal now.

True that... They can play on Wednesday already! Woo-hoo! Lol

Vidal to cover and rotate at right back. Turan to rotate in midfield, and is much more of an attacking mid than anything.

I imagine they want at least another scoring threat up front in case one of MSN gets injured or some one who can come off the bench and is more ready than what Sandro and Munir have proved to be. Also the Gundogan rumors pretain to trying to get another holding mid, something we haven't had since Xavi left. We got a ton of midfielders in the same mold and we struggle to hold on to the ball which leads to us getting countered allot. Adding Turan isn't gonna help in that department, it will just help rotate Rakitic and Iniesta.

So yes, I can definitely see why we would be looking to sign players, even though it's embarrassing to read we are trying to ask for loans and discounts

we only really should go for a suarez substitute who could maybe play the wings as-well (in january)

come summer we need to offload and buy a substitute leftback, long term rightback, and maybe a star midfield to replace iniesta? i doubt we'll use halilovic in his position.




---neymar----suarez------messi
------iniesta---------rakitic
alba---masche---pique----alves
---------------bravo

-munir/sandro---?????-----vidal/turan
-------s.roberto--------turan
------------------samper
adriano--verm-------mathieu---vidal/bartra/s.roberto
------------------MatS

right wing and rightback's replacements are meh but still doable, if sandro is leaving we have no real striker, and messi as false 9 would really change our style of play

Yea I think realistically all we need right now is a winger who can play both wings and offer good passes/get some goals here and there. That would be great off the bench as Munir/Sandro haven't really stepped up. In midfield I think we will be fine for now but will have to address that sooner or later. Nolito only really operates on the left, but that's fine because barring an injury, Messi plays the full 90 mins every match anyway. Sandro leaves and Munir is gonna have to be able to play back up LW/ST/RW, but that's only behind Nolito.

I would honestly rather keep Sandro and loan out Munir, and purchase Nolito. I think that would make the most sense.

Both Vidal and Turan can play as wingers if needed.

Agreed with free, we don't need to sign anyone, especially the scrubs we are being linked to.

True, if we are to sign negredo or somebody then screw this lol

Arda and his average of like 4-5 goals per season (when playing full games) and slow ass is really gonna be an asset on the wings coming off the bench, I bet.

Vidal on the other hand I bet is going to turn out to be a great signing. I'm looking forward to seeing him play, he can play allot of positions and is fast as hell and good on the ball.

Pep taking over one of the English team. Most probably Man city, my concern is pep will try to unsettle some of our player to join with him in city ,either first team or talented youth player, which piss me off.
My prediction is some youth player like samper, Rafinha and maybe Mashcerano or even Neymar or Suarez.

What makes you think so? At bayern he only got Thiago who would have left anyway... He ain't getting shit, especially Ney or Suarez lmao

Not a chance.

At least wait and see. Bayern already had great player and he just needed thiago and some of other Spanish player to play his style of football.

In city he has Silva, perhaps Yaya Toure who is already on decline and Aguero. I am not saying he will get but i have no doubt he will try for sure.

pep didn't work with samper, neymar nor suarez
any starting player we have wont leave unless it's for a drastically increased crazy wage or unless we choose to sell.
although hopefully he does take mascherano with him, we need to offload some older players and find the new young replacements.

also @windkick i wouldn't use turan's goal statistics as a reference to his abilities.
Atletico barely score as it is, they usually scrap by victories with one rarely two goals
he'll find it much easier to score with barca, especially considering our fourth highest scorer in the team is rakitic, whom he is in my opinion directly substituting.

That's a good point, and I hope you (and Turan) prove me wrong

Arda will not play on the wing. He can do it like Iniesta can do it if has to be but it's not ideal. The interior position (CMs ahead of Busquets) is perfect for his skillsets.

Nolito could still be a thing this month.

Nolito is on the verge of signing with Barcelona. Personal terms are already agreed according to Diario Sport. Several other outlets also reporting it.

Players expected to leave this month: Sandro and Douglas.
