Where do you think Barcelona will finish this season?
Incoming and accepted Chelsea bid to ensure he will not live up to his potential.
And lads this is why Sergio Busquets is my favorite player of all time. I started watching Barca in early 2000 when R9, Ronaldinho, Rivaldho and Deco were playing. But once I saw busquets play, I immediately knew he’d become my favorite of all time.
Another Pedri, Gavi, Ansu, situation with these lot, they think theses youngsters will save them only for them to fail due to injury
The future of the team until they overplay them and have them injured half the time
But barcelona still need look for experience player, u cannot expect young player to play until end of season
Look what happen with pedri and gavi
I think Adam Wharton from crystal palace can’t fit here really good
Talent over money may be the new mantra for all after success of Flick's Berca success this season
Don’t have 2 say “LA MASIA!!!” like that 🙈😂
Great shirt!!!!!
Shocking 😳
Im really starting to feel that Barcelona are paying whoever they find to hype their youngsters.
In the last 3 years, Barca got defenders, atackers and now midfielders from lamasia and usually are the best players in the squad. The only problem is the depth of the squad
I mean they should have all known it was Rae after that awful acting with the Poki kill. She spunded so cartoonishly over surprised.
The barcelona board is always making bad decisions and almost completely ruin their club, and then get saved by la masia
It's he only thing working properly in barcelona atm.
Future in Europa
Marc Bernal is the next busquets
At 17 6'3" 😭
What about predi and gavi?
Are you related to Zlewik ( YouTuber) ?
There is only one Busquets.
Wow what a nice jersey, what team is walthamstow?
Watch Laporte still buying more players he cant register that are half as talented as La Masía products.
Frenkie de Jong needs to get sold as fast as possible and replaced by a cheaper talent
