Huge gamble if you are right.
“White” isn’t the stand-out defining feature there; it’s American that is most important.Don't tell the journalists, its not in their remit especially the Mail ..... the 5 owners of the clubs ahead of us are white.
It's not a mouthpiece at all, it's Barcelona's official way of communicating with their players & staff. It gives them the option of standing back and saying 'that's nothing to do with us bud'.Isn’t this just a Barcelona mouthpiece?

I don’t think that really happens anymore. Clubs have wisened up that international tournaments are not a good barometer for how good a player is or could be.anyone else think we may be holding back on transfers until January due to the World Cup?
There’s always a few decent breakout stars and it’s a good way to scout potential targets!
No idea if he's staying with us or going on loan but he was nowhere to be seen over the weekend, either with the 1st team or the U21s. Whether that means they were busy sorting a loan out or he started off injured again we'll know shortly (hopefully).What's going on with Liam Delap? Maybe staying with the first team?
Exactly :)So it’s a mouthpiece?
If its cover for injures we need though we need a player that can do what Walker and Cancelo did at West Ham.i I dont’t know who but there won’ t be too many with that abilityits mental if he`s right to be honest!! we need a solid good class left back? someone who when needed can step in at a good level, rotation position but around the £20-30m level so we can rest Cancelo when required.

With three weeks to go in the transfer window I don’t see how it can be “obvious“ (as I’ve seen on BM) that we won’t bring any more new players in.
Starting the season with two full backs was clearly not the plan. Behind the scenes I can’t see Pep telling Txiki that his squad is now fine and he is happy to go with what he has been given. City spent too long going after Cucurella and thank god Chelsea came in and put a definitive stop to the uncertainty.
I don’t think for one minute City are thinking “ah well we had a crack but it wasn’t to be” City have to bring in a full back at the very least. To start the season with two isn’t ideal but everyone makes mistakes. To let the window shut with our defence as it is would be dereliction of duty for a club wanting to win the Champions League.
It isn’t going to be easy, because we have shown our hand, but it has to be done nevertheless.
Yeah this will happen quickly from first contact (whoever it is) because it has to now. No trying to pay with B&Q vouchers.especially with Pol stating that Pep isnt happy with the balance of the squad?

Are we talking about FDJ ? Won't they get in shit for leaking his contract ? I remember a huge shit storm when Messi had his contract leakedIt's not.
His contract was €14m/season, £220k/week.
It's going up to much higher in the next 2 years ~€20m, £330k/week because he's getting backpaid the deferred salary from 2021 and 2020.
Barcelona have leaked his contract to the Spanish press, we know the numbers now, don't need to rely on the old rumoured numbers which were far higher than reality.
on a side note dont barca still owe messi a shit load of money?Are we talking about FDJ ? Won't they get in shit for leaking his contract ? I remember a huge shit storm when Messi had his contract leaked
Yes they do. £42.5m in wageson a side note dont barca still owe messi a shit load of money?

I've just read that the FDJ issue stems from a 2 year extention that would have took him to 2026. He would earn 20 m euros this year and 25m euros next year. They want to go back to 2019 contract which would mean he only had 2 years left.then its absolutely mental that UEFA or FIFA havent stepped in to stop them buying players etc? let alone this holding company that they secretly set up to pay themselves etc?
No. They won't because they have no shame in routinely bending over for Spanish clubs.then its absolutely mental that UEFA or FIFA havent stepped in to stop them buying players etc? let alone this holding company that they secretly set up to pay themselves etc?
