No wonder they only sign foreign players that are over 16.
That explains it.
It's quite a good rule but not enough IMO to stop English teams from buying imports all the time
until there are no spaces left for the ENglish kids

No he doesnt want to leave.
but he just wants more money.
There is a 1 million gap between his demands and Barca's offer.
I just think it's plain silly.
He is worth every cent of that extra 1million.
Barca wants to categorize him as as a defender so his pay should be in a defenders bracket.
But that is absurd.
He made more passes in the opposition half than C.Ronaldo!
That alone tells you how important he is.
Priceless

ANd it doesnt help that Man City offered him a hell lot more Arab money.
Hopefully he wont take the Yaya route

Well, he made his personal opinions known, that's not trolling. You can just as well disagree by arguing what made the game good for you. Your first reply however, was a personal attack.
The bolded line is bullshit. It does matter how you lose.

Don't have time for "fans" who only look at scorelines. Some people actually watch the football, you know.

Discussing the match does not mean not accepting the results.
I believe forums are for discussions and airing of personal opinions, which we are doing here. If you disagree with any of the opinions of the general run-of-play then that may consequently be written. Nothing wrong with discussing it here if it is in reply to posts here. Barcelona was in the match too, you know.

I reply on here because I disagree with some people's view of Barca's position in the game, which in my opinion would not necessarily have stood until the end of the game where Arsenal's stamina from less vigourous pressing may have helped, as well as the introduction of perhaps less experienced subs.

If you feel more comments are not needed then ignore them according to your needs.

LOL so this is his personal opinion? not trolling?? i replied to that so den it was a personal attack? Dude..ur cute   
Fact is u guys lost even with referee's help (disallowed goal) on the first leg and we nvr complain. So just suck it up.

Guys, avoid focusing on ref's mistakes. As I said it's not worth discussing. Even after the first leg, I think we had done remarkably for not discussing over an incident. Only barca96, minority and Angel of Deth were involved in the discussion, and heck it wasn't a long discussion. We acknowledge that our team was wasteful, because we were simply wasteful and ineffective.

This is football. Just accept that ref's incompetency (or idiocy, whatever you prefer) can affect both sides. After all it's obvious that which team were the better performer. Just highlight that.

Sergio? Cant think of any other..unless he's from another team, which defeats the purpose of posting in this thread

Btw, time for some good news after a relatively bad week or 2.

Alves to stay until 2015.

Finally? I don't think the board has ever felt Alves was not important. Negotiation takes time. Barca-Alves deal took quite sometime, but we all know the respect is mutual. It is also undeniable however that both sides have their own interest too. Glad that in the end all go well.

Meanwhile Pep said Abidal is doing great atm. Maybe he could even meet up with his teammates during training as early as next week. But he won't start training as yet I guess.

Yes you have a point. But we have to note that the board have their own policy and planning in wage structure. So its not like only Alves has his interest to protect, so are the bosses. Remember, no player is bigger than the club.

Animo means 'strength'. I don't know why Google Translator can't translate the word, but I get the info in TB comment board.

5-1.. arghhh!!! rugi nye miss tak tgok..

Introducing Lionel Enguene  

He is currently playing in with Cadete B (Year 96 class). Still very young though, but its nice to watch such talent in La Masia

Lain kali x yah tido. Stay up je sampai match.  

He doesn't need youtube to know our youngsters. He has placed his scouts here for quite sometime

I'm sure right now he was like, "Hell, there are so much fine cherries in La Masia ripe to be picked."

---------------------------------

Regarding the match, its true we survived a scare, another one apparently.

But the most notable outcome from the match was a yellow card for Masch, which means he will miss El Clasico next weekend Really hope Puyol will make it.
