They had it up for a vote yesterday apparently to renovate the stadium and the surrounding area. Issue being that they would have to take out a loan that is almost as big as their current debt. It didn't pass the assembly.Wasn't there a rebuild planned for Camp Nou? With a flash new roof etc. They probably have to put that on hold while they sort out their finances.
Xavi would be mad to take them now, he could pick when he joins so should wait until a bit of stability imo.According to Marca (Madrid based) the names in the frame are Xavi, Roberto Martínez, Antonio Conte and Phillip Cocu. Mundo Deportivo (Barcelona based) have the first two of these and say today will be decisive. Sport (also Barcelona based) reckon it's between Xavi, Antonio Conte and Pirlo
I mean, Setien had good runs with Las Palmas and Betis to justify getting the Barca job. Cocu last managed Derby county.No less random than "Quique" Setién
It's not like it's a fee that HAS to be paid for them to move, as long as they get a gentleman's agreement in place they're golden...Pedri agrees new long-term Barcelona deal with €1bn release clause

Absolutely, we all define ourselves in ever-widening circles - family, neighbourhood/village, town/city, region, country, continent, as well as other possible factors like religion, politics, language etc. Nothing at all wrong with any of that as long as you neither exclude people or think yourself better than others.And remember who his uncle is. Do we know if rafa speaks mallorquin?
Ps. i think it’s perfectly acceptable to be proud of your regional heritage and of being spanish. It wasn’t a problem for most of our history
Random Philip Cocu sighting right there.According to Marca (Madrid based) the names in the frame are Xavi, Roberto Martínez, Antonio Conte and Phillip Cocu. Mundo Deportivo (Barcelona based) have the first two of these and say today will be decisive. Sport (also Barcelona based) reckon it's between Xavi, Antonio Conte and Pirlo
Xavi would serve himself well to allow Barca to crater, then swoop in at their lowest point after all the heads have rolled.Xavi would be mad to take them now, he could pick when he joins so should wait until a bit of stability imo.
What about Pirlo he's the bloke in the action moving walking in slow-motion as stuff blows up behind him (the stuff being Juve).I mean, Setien had good runs with Las Palmas and Betis to justify getting the Barca job. Cocu last managed Derby county.
Sorry for them? Not exactly. But I don't like the lack of decent teams across Europe. The English teams and Bayern Munich are the only real force. The lack of competitiveness is not inspiring me to tune inIs anyone actually sorry for them. I'm curious. The smug sons of bitches deserve this...
Interestingly ballesteros was my neighbour in the early 90s and I named my puppy after him. My dog’s called sevy. Very nice and humble person he wasAbsolutely we all define ourselves in ever-widening circles - family, neighbourhood/village, town/city, region, country, continent, as well as other possible factors like religion, politics, language etc. Nothing at all wrong with any of that as long as you neither exclude people or think yourself better than others.
Nothing at all wrong with Rafa supporting Madrid either, beyond his poor judgement.
But to say that Spain's greatest ever sportsman (probably, tho I guess you might make a case for Indurain or Ballesteros) is an agent of the "Enemy State", you've lost the plot massively.
I don't know if Rafa speaks Mallorquín, probably, he's got a gaff there.
