Welcome back, welcome back, welcome baaaack
Seems like a lot of Barca fans want to live in a fantasyland where the poo poo their club does doesn't have real, local repercussions. In reality the whole league is suffering. Not like they care as they only support the team by watching them on TV across the world. A little perspective would be nice.

lol loving hell. I'd like to see versions of those charts with Champions League and Europa League TV money included.

It still baffles me why all the other teams put up with this, there's no league without them. You can understand why Atletico and Valencia might want to keep their position of getting the most crumbs from the big two's table, but the rest of them should just strike or field children against Barca/Real.

Barca and Madrid bribed all the other club's presidents into accepting the tv deal, it's the only thing that makes sense to me. The other clubs can't be that dumb.

There are real political and institutional obstacles, namely that the FA essentially looks after the interests of these two teams. This is not to say the rest have silently taken whatever crumbs fall of the table. There's been protests, comments and threats made. Sevilla famously got their games moved one season which was in no way punishment, no sir.

The worse thing is that the clubs had the option of fighting the tv deal recently but nothing came of it, they just shrugged their shoulders and let Barca and Madrid keep loving them, it's the weirdest thing.

Yeah I thought it was something along the line that the league and FA takes the sacrifices in the expectation that the two teams will do good in Europe.

That sounds too noble, maybe there was such a time that was true. In practice is much like any regulatory body, it has since been populated with people whose allegiances lie really with the teams themselves and not the league as a whole.

It's only half of the poo poo nationals have to put up with, there's just as much Madrid bashing and is wholly uninteresting as well.

But as long as we are on the subject, I'm divided on Navas and Andrés Fdez, as best young keepers on the league.

Only when I breathe.
Bale was immense today. Well on his way to winning the Ballon d'Or once Ronaldo retires. He's definitely bigger these days, he was pushing the German defenders aside like they were some La Liga pansies. That's another advantage he has over Neymar, who doesn't have anyone to spot him with his weights. I can imagine him early on going every night to the Barca gym to bulk up only to find it completely deserted, and quitting midway through a set because he forgot his ipod. You need someone to encourage and motivate you in the gym, usually someone bigger than you that you can aspire to look like, and Bale has that with Ronaldo, Casillas and the other guys. I bet Bale goes crazy nowadays when he's stuck at home and there's nothing on TV and he just wants to get his sweat on, so he texts Ronaldo who's always up for a session and picks him up in his big rear end sports car and they just go 2 hours easy, probably shirtless cause there's nobody at the gym at night and Ronaldo spots him with his bigger weights that he can't handle yet because he's not swole enough but he's well on his way. drat. Love it.

I wonder how much pocket money Neymar gets from his rich dad?

Suqit posted:

I think it would be incredible to have Laudrup back. I still hold out hope for Tata. I really like the fact that he actually rotates the squad. I think it will prove smart as Barcelona get deeper in to all competitions. They have a history of starting to look poo poo this time of the year. It's pretty cool having some decent teams in the league this year. I've always had a soft spot for Sociedad. I hope they can hold on to Griezmann for at least another year.

I have hardly seen Rafinha play at all, but when I did he really didn't leave much of an impression on me.
He rotated for no reason in the game against Sociedad, though, and it looks like he's gonna end up playing Messi for 90 minutes every game now. I'm telling you, a guy with such a bad haircut who looks more at home in tracky-Bs than suits is never gonna cut it.
