Perez has the same style of signing that Bartomeu has tho... Eratic and over priced, since 2009 when they did galactic signings "Fichajes Galacticos"

[@mikeoxlong6489]

Josep Bartomeu ruined the greatest attacking front of the 21st century by selling Neymar and then Suarez. You don't appeciate what you have until it's gone. Messi will be gone within the year too, regardless of him now stepping down. Sad to see.

[@dylanpriest9756]

Neymar had a buyout clause which he accepted. He sold himself

[@marcorojas-vazquez6792]

Neymar was to flashy for barca. I'm a Getafe fan and I wanted that front 3 to work out but it was never gonna work with Barca. Neymar doesn't create at a high level for other players and wasn't used to the possession style in Barca. Why would he want to be in a strict system when he's allowed to do whatever he wants in PSG? It's backfiring PSG in a way because they rely so much on Neymar and Mbappe to produce their offense

[@lazarradojcic205]

When i see what Neymar has become in the PSG team I tell myself that maybe it wasn't such a bad move afterall. The real problem is what the board did with the money from his transfer. Sickening to see that the club may go bankrupt today.

[@adamabouezzeddine2570]

Marco Rojas-Vazquez wasn't used to the possession style at Barcelona? They won a treble with him, and he played perfectly in all the years. He was perfect for their system as a winger and he used to take so much attention along with Messi which gave space for the other players to thrive. The only issue was him wanting to be the alpha of his team, and not to be overshadowed by someone else which is why he chose to move to PSG.

[@sayantandas2403]

How convenient of these Barca fanboys to blame everything on Baartomeu. Neymar had a release clause which got activated and hence he left. Also, he wanted to leave himself because Barca always sucks up to Messi when they win and blame games when they lose. The PSG game was single handedly won by Neymar, and the club put Messi on the poster. Suarez has declined yes but the blame he got was unbelievable. If he continued at Barca, the fans would have ripped Barto apart. They let him go, still they blame him. Its very clear, although Bartomeu didn't do his job in a great way, many players failing and other issues have been blamed on him.

[@KhoaLe-jm4sv]

I never expected Doraemon being referenced in a video about Barcelona football club.

And since joining lfc only messi has had more G/A than salah(No lewan no cr7 thats how good salah is but im not saying hes as good as Messi and CR7). Salah currently has 143 G/A. Also since joining lfc only kdb has had more big chances created. And salah has had the most dribbles leading to chances showing his dribbling is acc amazing. He is also 1 of 5 in epl history to win back2back golden boots. Salah can dribble pass shoot and do everything else. Also he is 2nd fastest player to reach 100 G/A in epl only sherear was faster. He also is the second with most G/A in first 100 games in epl(70 G/A only shearer has had more in 100 Games... 79 also realise the 10 games he played at chelsea are counted). Salah has never got less than 30 G/A at lfc. And in his prime he had 60 G/A in UCL and Epl only. He had 1.2 G/A per game.

Laporte would have stayed longer but Sandro R. didn't like how Laporte was running the club. So Sandro and his people pushed Laporte outside of the club Completely and started buying big football names for large of money like Real Madrid. Sandro R. never like the fact that Laporte spending little money on players and be so succesfull. Sandro R. tought that u have to buy big names like other teams did. After Sandro R. left the club, Bartomeu took over and did the same thing as Sandro R. did. Guess who was Sandro R. biggest admire ? Bartomeu. Laporte was the reason for Deco Ronaldinho Eto'o and etc...
