So it's pretty obvious Suarez only apologised to facilitate the move. I doubt he meant any word of it.

And Barcelona are crazy if they want to spend £50mil+ on a striker when they already have Messi, Neymar, and Sanchez. Buy 2 class CBs, a RB, and another midfielder first.


Nono the word is not crazy, it's idiotic -.-

Messi scored his pele/muller record breaking season in xavi/iniesta's worst season in barca so far.
On top of that he was assisted by them in less than 15 goals out of 91.

People that say he needs iniesta/xavi are just haters/trolls.

I love Barça but hate their transfer policy so much.

Just to add to the Messi debate. One of the best teams ever playing in service of him should tell enough about how good he is.

Well according to that Messi circlejerk article from the other day, Messi is better at shooting unassisted than he is at shooting while assisted. May as well send Messi out there 1v11.

Lionel Messi is the player who created most chances (18) and completed most dribbles (24) so far this World Cup


18 freaking chances on a plate and only yesterday he got his first assist and some people try to say that argentina is some short of superpower. Samaras looks world class compared to aguero/higuain in this tournament.

I would like to see how they classify a move as a chance. I've watched every Argentina game so far and he's made very few clear cut chances.

You can watch these little compilation videos with all his ball time during a game. 6-8mins each.
I wouldn't think it's 18 clear cut chances as you said though, just average scoring chances, some clear cut, some more difficult to score.
The point of this stat is that messi does everything, assisting/creating/scoring.

Sporting Lisbon sign the Scottish Messi (struggle to say that with a straight face) called Ryan Gauld from Dundee United for £3M. 18 year old. £48M buy out clause in contract. He had a pretty good first half to last season, we'll see if anything comes from him.

Messi’s run to set up the goal was clocked at 27.58 km/hr, and it was the fastest he had moved in the match.


Holy shit, mind=blown.

I don't undestand why Barcelona would exchange Sanchez for Suarez. They've invested lots of money (fee + wages) and time (basically one season of Alexis underpefroming because he had to adapt to tactics) in the Chilean and now they want to trade him for an older forward, who'll probably be more expensive and less likely to obey Messi's dictatorship in terms of CF position (as Zlatan indicated many times). The only situation where it might make some sense would be if Luis Enrique changed the tactical setup completely and went for 4-4-2.

Something like this would be the dream configuration:

Ter-Stegen - Alves, Pique, Hummels, Alba - Cuadrado, Busquets, Rakitić, Iniesta - Messi, Suarez

...but it's so, SO unlikely to happen.

Well, either Lucho has a plan regarding suarez or the barca board wants to get dem sweet $$ with marquee signings and go full RM galacticos road.

Suarez Saga Latest!

Liverpool and Barcelona have held "productive talks" over the potential transfer of Luis Suarez, according to Sky sources.

Anfield managing director Ian Ayre met officials from Barcelona in London on Wednesday, with a Liverpool source confirming later that "the talks held today were productive, there are sensible expectations on both sides.

"Further talks and discussions are to take place, but nothing is finalised as of now."


At a press conference on Wednesday, Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu would not be drawn on the talks.

But he did he made a point of commending Suarez for apologising and confirmed they are in the market for a striker, as well as two new centre-backs.

Source


Wow, Barcelona ARE going to sign 2 centre backs. With the players lined up and "ready" but according to the president they are holding out due to their value going up after the world cup. According to their clubs :s
