  1. xavi want two midfielders my god 😅we need a proper RB,CDM and Vitor roque . why are we talking about kimmich we can't even sign a free agent messi 😑

  2. Messi is very disappointing. No more champions league, no more top league titles, no more Balon D’or. He opted for playing exhibition games in the US instead of playing the top competition in Europe. He basically has retired. Arguably the best player in the world is now going to play with the junior varsity. Just sad.

  3. Ive been watching barça since my dad first got cable back in the 90s. I was there when messi first debuted to his last game. Day in day out week in week out. At this point i dont care of any other signings i dont want anyone. Might as well keep those horrible players like Ferran, Eric Garcia and kessie etc…….

  4. If we don’t sign a rb we are toast can’t rely on roberto for the copa clashes let alone european football, in my opinion ferran fati garcia should leave and we should go for world class players no more 30+ or short term decisions

  5. Xavi is naive or silly about the europa league…. You have to earn a champions league spot like everyone else plain and simple 😅 you are where you aspired to be… They sucked and he needs to accept that… Literally the only way to not be there is to win the europa league and show you are a top club… Dont want to play there? Then take the knock out stage seriously… Anything else is an embarrasing excuse.

  6. Thank God this thing is over. It was actually over in 2021. Messi hasn’t been a Barca player since the Summer of 2021. Barca has spent those years slowly starting a new golden era with young players like Ronald Araujo, Pedri, Gavi, Balde, etc. Bringing Messi back would’ve hampered the growth of the team. Tom Wolfe said it best when he said “you can’t go home again”. And I am glad that this door is finally shut. Hopefully people can stop talking about Messi in regards to Barcelona in the present tense. I love talking about Messi when he WAS with the team. But he’s not. He hasn’t been for years. He actually went to a very hated club in PSG (they tempted Neymar away and to me they are the second worse team next to Real Madrid). His dad, Jorge has been nothing but poison. I believe Jorge was the one who pressured Messi not to resign with Barcelona before his last contract expired in June 2021. Messi let it run down and then he couldn’t register. I believe Jorge knew that and it was he that wanted Messi to leave Barca. Jorge also was the one who started the “Messi as victim” BS. Messi was the greatest player in history. He doesnt have that talent anymore. He’s still very good but doesnt play a 100% game. Xavi needs all his players on the pitch to be willing to go 100% up and down the field. Messi doesnt do defense. That would’ve complete screwed up the flow of the team. Barcelona won when Messi signed with Inter Miami because this whole saga has been a stone around Barcelona’s neck. I hope Messi enjoys Miami and the casual “soccer” of the MLS. It’s still better than Saudi Arabia and Senior Walking Football. But it’s truly a dead league due to the fact that the majority of the league owners (or whatever they’re referred to as) dont want promotion/ relegation. Which would be interesting to see right now because Inter Miami are dead last. I’d love to see Messi in the USL or NASL or whatever the second division of US “soccer” would be like with pro/ rel. Could Messi handle being in Fargo on a cold snowy night? #ViscaBarca ✌🏾❤️⚽️🍄

  7. The transfer window is already very active, clubs are signing players for preseason but we are here wondering who's coming and who's not. Are we really clear about what we want? I know it's tough for the management but you should have a plan B after Messi… It will safe us a lot if we wrap things up quickly and start preparing for the new season.

    Laporta has shown that he could pull things through like he did in the last window, I look forward to him doing something greater this summer and putting the team on a bigger winning path this new season… Let's be quick with it

  8. We need More players
    James Madison is a great play maker.
    Youri Tielemans is great CDM as Well .
    Leicester City are relegated and these two will be low cost options .

  9. Messi tried to help Barcelona by leaving in 2020. Back then his hands were tied by Bartomeu. Now he is helping by not coming back. There are so many things to fix in this squad, and Messi's wages would've directly restricted what other signings could be done.

    1. Elite-level right back. KoundĂŠ/Araujo is more than good enough as backups.
    2. Better left back cover. Alba was one of the best 2nd choice left backs in the world. Who do we have now? Alonso? Not good enough.
    3. Two midfielders, one of whom should be good enough to be a starter.
    4. A center forward. Lewy should not be the only reliable option. Also, we don't want him to play every game at his age.
    5. Left wing?

  10. Honestly its good that barca are taking a different route….. Watch the space they will set the new style of football again. Tiki Taka 2.0🔥🔥❤️💙

  11. Given that we didn’t get Messi, why not Neymar? He’s only 31. Wants to be poster boy of the team. And will be, given that we have no world class strikers (in their prime)

  12. Is Xavi the Men for the Job his tactics have to be better hope he learns fast cause we play so slow and boring we need some intensity out of our players and he picks the team

  13. Get ( Neymar Jr + Ansu )on the left Winger ,,,…(get Gundogan + Kimmich + right back + Victor Rogue) ……sell Kassie , Ferran Torres, Marco Alonso and Eric Garcia

  14. With messi not coming, we need Gundogan, a DM and a right back. Ansu can serve as backup striker for Lewandowski until we can sign a new striker

  15. Please Read!!!
    Tbh, millions of people our generation, outside Spain started to admire Barcelona because of Leo. I personally, loved that little boy who did magic in the pitch which resonated my DNA into Barcelona. Since, then I never ever missed any Barca matches even after Messi's leaving.
    Millions of Indians wake up till 3AM to watch Barca's matches and I know, it's Leo's influence.
    But, what Laporta and Barca management did? They brutally kicked him out. We are not damn fools, they never sent him official proposal at all. Just did, all those dramas to put them in right place in order to avoid blames on their head.
    Wow!! What a politician he is!!!
    Jamie, you are Catalonian, and you will obviously shout on his behalf but we too know the real game behind all those dramas. Even, I personally did not convince his return since it would be a failure like Ronaldo's Manchester return but at least he deserved a warm Farewell and last last last Goodbye😢. As a FAN, I wanted to cry on his last match at Barcelona remembering all those good memories he left on us😭😭😭😭😭😭😭. But NO, One politician came and destroyed everything. He should be held responsible for!!!!

  16. I love Xavi but I'm not sure how he is claiming Messi deal was all in his own hands and he chose not to sign because of "less pressure"… whereas Vitor Roque signing is dependent on their financial situation.

    Messi himself said he didn't come back because they would have had to sell players or cut salaries to bring him back. And if you are saying you cant afford Vitor Roque then clearly Messi is telling the truth and not Xavi/Barca

  17. I am not buying this B.S from Xabi. He won a Championship with Barcelona as a coach and if he was really pressing on Laporta to have Messi , they would have get him. But all these nonsense saying that it was Messi`s decision, is absolutely a lie. Messi's wife and kids wanted to go back to their natural environment which is Barcelona. They did not say we want to go live in Miami U.S.A.
    Messi did not have any other choice but to accept Miami's offer. Deeply inside in his heart , I am 100% sure Messi wanted to go back to Barcelona for two years retire there and later on to be part of the team as a manager. But, Joan Laporta is a liar and was scared for his job at Barcelona. He knew that once Messi is back he will be out and Messi will get his position. This is not how the world's best football player should be treated. Shame on Barcelona managers.

  18. Why did you hide the fact that Barca blamed Leo and lied about how they offer him a nonexistent deal? Didn’t you read what the Barca account wrote on Instagram two days ago? Laporta didn’t even bother trying to sign Leo and he still blamed him. It was a such disrespectful and ungrateful thing to say to about your greatest legend, the GOAT himself. Leo is was the reason why Barca has been relevant since Ronaldinho left the club and the board still betrayed him AGAIN. Complete Ingrates

  19. Neymar is 5years younger and the seasons he had 2017till2021 barca messed up fake fans im never listening to you again lol most of you would still take messi after his mls shit FAKE
