I wonder how many youngsters Barcelona have poached from Espanyol over the years... it's easy to talk big when one belongs to the dominate side.

Agree, he’s wrong in this case and everything he’s said (this time) is either incorrect or he also hasn’t looked to within his own club.

Take for example the fact Barça have their shirt sponsor with Japanese company Rakuten, is because of Piqué, he himself sorted that one out with his connections as Barcelona were about to go with a US company for a longer contract and the same money.  There’s even a Chinese member within the Barcelona structure... Piqué’s business centre is based in Mataró, so what should we say there?

Gerard Piqué is a very intelligent person with an extremely high IQ, but he does let his mind run wild and act a lot of times before he’s actually thought it out.

Do you know what Piqué is getting at with his tweet mate?

Maybe you do but for those that don’t get it or don’t understand I’ll explain briefly.

Both those pieces of news on players being investigated for tax fraud have obvious different treatment both in the wording used but most of all we can observe that none of the players play in Spain any longer (some for quite some time).  With Alexis Sánchez they’ve used the Barcelona strip from back in the day while with the past Real Madrid players (Xabi Alonso, Ángel di María and Ricardo Carvalho) they’ve used the strips at the current clubs or in Carvalho’s case his national team of Portugal.

The news articles originate from Spanish tv station Antena3 which is a national free to air tv channel, one of the big five along with TVE, Cuatro, La Sexta and Tele5.

Subtle stuff that tends to go unnoticed but works in the mind’s retina.  In Spain they call it the Madrid Cavern.

Yeah mate, I understood what that tweet was about, since there was translation below the Spanish tweet.

Just because he 'talks' doesn't mean he 'says' anything.

Gerard Piqué hasn't said anything (just yet) as this is what this thread is about.  But he's just been called to court for more driving misdemeanours due to driving without any points on his license (in Spain instead of accumulating points, they're deducted from a total of 12) and will now face the law.

...will now face what Spanish authorities call the law when it comes to footballers, i.e. a pointless fine, a suspended sentence and access to a tax administrator who can defraud the Spanish government of millions of dollars on Pique's behalf.

That's more like it.

Hahaha You’re not wrong there. Although let’s wait and see.
