  1. Pastore's going on a Roman adventure. Amazing. https://www.rtl.fr/sport/football/mercato-psg-as-roma-javier-pastore-7793834743
  2. Good news. Barcelona strike deal with Gremio for Arthur to arrive this summer After a series of meetings between Barcelona and Gremio, and the player's wish to move this summer, a deal has been reached to bring forward Arthur's transfer https://www.sport-english.com/en/news/barca/barcelona-reach-an-agreement-with-gremio-for-arthur-to-arrive-this-summer-6899119
  3. Lol. Can't take this chap seriously. Can't see Madrid retaining the Champions League next season. Messi and co will be gunning for the title with everything they got. Big time. (Barca has been doing Madrid a huge favour by not prioritizing the CL like Madrid does. Deep down, in your heart of hearts, y'all know this is true) People will see just who emerges triumphant when FC Barcelona prioritizes a particular competition. Forget Bayern, City and PSG, Madrid is the only worthy opponent to the CL title next season for FC Barcelona. May the best team win
  4. On this day 3 years ago. Still prefer the 2009 team though. Now that was Beautiful Football on a mythical level.
  5. The Last Samurai Surprisingly emotional and powerful
  6. Have some Irish in me yes. Why do you ask? Latvians are the Irish of the Baltics?
  7. How about Latvian? For some reason Latvians seem to gravitate towards me, and vice versa. (More the former.)
  8. Some things you can never unsee
  9. Starting to get excited. Suarez was absolutely instrumental in the treble winning season of 2015. This guy may very well be the one to help us get our third in 2019 Can see Griezmann Messi Suarez playing well together. Great players always do.
  10. The strip to win the Champions League in Madrid in. Unite the 10. https://www.nike.com/gb/football/bootroom/t/fc-barcelona-201819-home-kit/
  11. I love it. As classic as you can get in this day and age! https://store.nike.com/gb/en_gb/pw/fc-barcelona/ofi?intpromo=CDP-DUAL%3AP1%3A20180519%3AGFB%3ASHOPTHECOLLECTION&ipp=120 Looks lean and mean. Hungry.
  12. All the lads showing off the new kit in the link below. https://www.fcbarcelona.com/club/news/2017-2018/fc-barcelona-unveils-new-nike-kit-for-201819-season
  13. The only First Team player at the reveal.
  14. Footyheadlines got it right yet again! I like how they showed all Barcelona districts in the video. In fact, there are exactly 10 red stripes on the blue background, each one representing one Barcelona district: Les Corts, Sants-Montjuïc, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, La Barceloneta, Sant Martí, Ciutat Vella, Gràcia, Horta-Guinardó, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu. CONFIRMED: The new kit will be worn tomorrow in the Camp Nou vs Real Sociedad. La lLga made a special exemption for this to happen. Finally the La Liga bosses do something right! Dembele staying then??? Griezmann's already here it seems!
  15. That's right. I remember that preseason very well. Probably the one that left the biggest impression on me in recent years. By far. 2018-2019 jersey unveiling tomorrow at the famous 1992 Barcelona Olympic pools of Montjuïc. May be worn on the last match of the year vs Real Sociedad Sunday.

  16. That's why the Guardiola Era FC Barcelona Team of 2008-2009 is considered and revered as Football Immortals. Rightfully so. Results, trophies AND the most beautiful technically proficient football the world's ever seen. I can wax poetic/wax lyrical about that team all day long. The single most impressive "Greatest Season in European Football History". Not even Barca 2011 and 2015 come close (if we're talking about the overall efficiency, effectiveness, quality and beauty of football played).
  17. Doesn't he look a right wanker in that Madrid strip? LOL! Barca have MORE than proved ourselves in La Liga. Undisputed Domestic Champions of the Decade. We now need to show and prove in Europe. To say that we can't be as successful as Madrid are in Europe is laughable. It's a matter of priorities. Always has been. Time to prioritize cup competitions I, for one, would love to win a few more cups while Messi's still playing. He may be our last chance at one/a few for a while :-/
  18. Yes I'm well aware he was on Madrid's books mate. Dunno if he played any matches. Sang it on several occasions I believe Good lad Jumped ship for a bigger better club didn't he now?
  19. Regardless of whether Barca win La Liga again next season (I think they will) we do need to make the semis of the Champions League, at the very least. Going out again at the Quarter Final stage would indicate that FC Barcelona has the very best first-team players a club can have, but are horribly deficient when it comes to the bench/second-string. This is a significant problem the club needs to address this summer. There's a major drop-off in quality between the first team and second team, which may have been why Valverde didn't dare risk rotating players' playing time. In other words, it wasn't so much that he was going for the unbeaten la Liga record, it's that he knew that he had to play his first team players, because the second team just can't get the job done. He knew the limitations of his thin squad. He did the best with what he has, a paper-thin squad. Proud of Barca this season, but there are serious problems with complacency, man-management/rotations and Messidependency that need to be addressed with signings that fit Barca. As great as Valverde has been in his first season, he would be the first to admit he didn't get things exactly right in his very first season in a club of Barca's caliber. He's simply never had to compete on all three fronts before. I fully expect better from him and our Barca next season. He'll use the lessons he's learned in his first season and implement them his sophomore season. No one cares about unbeaten seasons. They care about trophies. Treble Treble coming right up sealed at the Wanda in Madrid in Madrid's face on Saturday June 1st 2019? Fuck beautiful football. Go all out for results and trophies. We want it all (Treble). Passionate lifelong hot-blooded Barca supporter right here is all I can say.
