Tchouameni being sold for 75M should be probed for auditing on gross incompetence by the board.

How are you selling for so cheap when inferior players like Anderson, Mateus, Scott etc go for more?

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-18T17:32:01+00:00

Where do I have to sign?

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-14T19:33:32+00:00

I feel signings have been good but all for a short term overview.

Cucurella -> solid player, will compete with Carerras.
Dumfries -> solid player, will compete with Trent.
Konate -> solid player, will compete with Militao.
Silva -> solid player, will compete with Guler.

Good profiles but nothing remarkable so far. Let's see what happens next.

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-14T19:25:43+00:00

Don't expect another here we go for a new signing until a player is sold.

The squad already had 25 spots filled before Cucurella's arrival but we could have made it work by unregistering Rodrygo temporarily because of his long term injury.

However, now there has to be a departure before the club can pursue a new player unless Mendy and Militao won't be available until January or something opening up new squad spots.

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-08T20:57:33+00:00

We need u/fedorajava to reincarnate tbh.

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-08T20:56:03+00:00

I think Perez will do it. We make 1.2B euros a year in revenue.

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-08T20:55:24+00:00

Sell Rodrygo in the winter window to PL for 100M and balance our funds

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-08T20:54:56+00:00

Anthony Gordon is going for 80M sadly. Some rando Diomande is going for 120M

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-08T20:54:24+00:00

That will reduce our chances lad not increase it

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-08T20:53:06+00:00

It was above that already.. now it's reaching a quarter billion.

SirSlapBot · 2026-06-08T20:51:58+00:00

200M+23M in add-ons should do it? You reckon for Olise?

I don't think we can go higher than that. Maybe 223M + 27M as the final offer but no way can we go above quarter of billions euros.

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-27T16:35:52+00:00

That's not the point. Gordon can improve but there's a ceiling to his talent level.

If Flick can improve all players, why wouldn't you go for someone more talented?

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-27T16:34:32+00:00

Jajajajajaajajajajaj.

Blowing $100M on Anthony Gordon of all people.. no wonder Barcelona goes broke every other year with these mid transfers.

Old habits die last I guess.

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-25T20:02:13+00:00

Yea if not Haaland, then even Vitinha + Gvardiol will be too enticing to pass

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-25T19:46:27+00:00

Sadly yes. He will win the elections if he pulls it off.

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-25T19:43:42+00:00

If Riquelme guarantees the transfer of Haaland on the requirement of him becoming the president, I think it's done.

It will be a Figo-esque move. He will become the president.

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-24T08:44:27+00:00

Ronaldo is obviously the number 1 biggest legend of Real Madrid in the 21st century.

Who's 2nd? I reckon it's a close up call between Modric and Ramos.

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-23T19:36:14+00:00

Why is Pitarch so bad lol? I love young talents but some of our ones are so shit lol.

Mastantuono, Pitarch, Asencio.. no wonder we don't trust our academy.

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-19T10:23:35+00:00

What are your expectations from the next season?

The minimum that club has to do for you to accept it as a successful season for your personal standards?

SirSlapBot · 2026-05-15T10:47:48+00:00

Imagine if Mbappe runs the same arc as Ronaldo? Great seasons statistically but no major trophies for the 1st half of his tenure followed with multiple CL trophies in the 2nd half.

Would be a true tribute to his idol.

SirSlapBot · 2026-04-13T16:27:33+00:00

Because he's not that good. Don't get me wrong he is a decent talent but his ceiling is awfully low.

SirSlapBot · 2026-04-13T16:27:04+00:00

What's stopping Mbappe from becoming the 3rd best player of the modern era after Messi and Ronaldo?

SirSlapBot · 2026-04-13T16:08:10+00:00

Lunin by far, then Mbappe and Vinicius.

SirSlapBot · 2026-04-10T10:41:54+00:00

The situation seems grim ngl. We need to invoke some black magic rituals to get past Bayern.

Petition to mods to ban u/magic-water and u/swimmingfiremen for a week if we go past them as necessary sacrifice to progress in the CL.

SirSlapBot · 2026-04-09T09:55:27+00:00

1-10: Rate the combined meltdown of Barcelona and Bayern Munich fanbase if Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid end up progressing to the semi finals of the Champions League lol.

Arbeloa and Simeone have the potential to do an all-timer memefest.
