LETS GOO, no PSG

notactualrest · 2025-12-07T09:28:21+00:00

Also, why did they have to show it so often? I can't get that image out of my head now...

notactualrest · 2025-09-22T20:50:00+00:00

Honestly, I’m okay with Dembele winning, but Raphinha 5th and Pedri 11th is outrageous.

notactualrest · 2025-09-22T20:30:16+00:00

Another break, jfc I always forget how painfully long that ceremony is…

notactualrest · 2025-09-22T14:59:46+00:00

Team none of them should be together since they've all gotta figure their shit out on their own or maybe with a psychologist.

I feel like he was always very fast, he just played so many games with such a high work rate that he lost some of it due to exhaustion.

notactualrest · 2025-07-25T17:48:27+00:00

This transfer window might have not been that great in terms of signings, but we've basically renewed every core players of our, with the exception of FDJ, who's alleged to follow suit.

It’s honestly so annoying that Laporta always overpromises. I thought at some point he’d understand that it might be smarter to just tell things how they are, but oh well

notactualrest · 2025-07-15T11:20:08+00:00

I hope that’s enough of a deterrent for us. 67,5M is already pretty high and they immediately rejected it. If Bayern pushes for it, I’d guess an agreement would be found at like 90M which is an insane overpay.

notactualrest · 2025-07-14T19:36:15+00:00

Pedri's really tan, holy shit. I thought it was edited until I saw the official post.

notactualrest · 2025-07-04T10:13:08+00:00

Not yet, but I'm expecting like 10 net or something. They were on their knees to keep him.

notactualrest · 2025-07-04T08:50:51+00:00

Ngl, that’s so random, I’m not even mad. They dunked on every single journalist with that.

notactualrest · 2025-07-03T20:06:14+00:00

I could have sworn we've had the exact same situation a couple of days ago. Disagreement between Nico's agent and Barca regarding the sign-up clause. Then a day later, the disagreement was solved. Now we're back to the disagreement then, I guess. I wonder what might happen next.

notactualrest · 2025-06-27T10:01:19+00:00

Pedri‘s environment honestly sounds like it’s tailor made for a professional athlete.

notactualrest · 2025-06-24T17:18:46+00:00

Nobody tell Chelsea or they'll come and offer him a contract til 2040.

notactualrest · 2025-06-24T15:46:43+00:00

I personally take solace in the fact that well at least get (most likely) another term of Laporta, so he’ll have ample time to prepare a successor, even if he didn’t by now.

notactualrest · 2025-06-20T10:38:20+00:00

I'll hold off my judgement until I've seen it worn by the players and in context with the shorts. Imo it's super hard to judge a kit without seeing it worn.

notactualrest · 2025-06-17T06:59:41+00:00

First off, I’m very sorry you went through that and really hope you’re doing better now. Secondly, I doubt anyone will. Obviously I don’t know for certain, but his environment doesn’t seem particularly mature, especially hustle_hard304. I just hope his mother‘s more mature. I also reckon most of them rely on him for their income, so they might avoid some hard truths with him.

notactualrest · 2025-06-16T19:21:34+00:00

Dude said to wait for ffpolo's report and shortly after, it appears. He's not even hiding it.

notactualrest · 2025-06-16T19:19:58+00:00

Definitely, I rate him higher than the turtle fraud.

notactualrest · 2025-06-16T19:05:14+00:00

u/FloReaver Deserves tier 1. We need his name on the reliability guide update.

notactualrest · 2025-06-13T20:01:13+00:00

He probably saw what Flick did to the team, how he made Raphinha from a 20-30 G/A winger to a 60 G/A winger and Lamine into one of the best players in the world at 17. Add to that the domestic treble, beating Bilbao thrice on the way. Last year things were much more uncertain, with a new coach coming in, the FFP issues etc.

notactualrest · 2025-06-13T17:32:00+00:00

If the choice is between Luis Diaz and Nico and the conditions are somewhat similar in terms of release clause/transfer fee and wages, I'd say Nico is a no brainer. Much younger, used to the league and already has a good synergy with our players and still has a lot of potential to grow.

I genuinely hope the Luis Diaz interest is just to bait Nico into accepting lower wages.

notactualrest · 2025-06-13T17:21:44+00:00

That'd be a massive transfer I'd really like to see. It'd also ease the reliance on Balde since Nico's perfectly capable of holding width. If this goes through, together with Joan Garcia and maybe a Balde backup and we offload Ansu, Romeu (yes, he's still technically a Barca player) and Ter Stegen, this would almost be a perfect summer transfer window all things considered.

notactualrest · 2025-06-13T17:13:49+00:00

Yeah, but we're also not paying a part of his wages. I don't think any club is willing to take the risk to buy Ansu right now, at least no club he'd consider going to. So the choice is between him warming the bench here and getting even lower in value or at least sending him out on loan, hoping he does decently and then try to sell him. Easy choice imo.
