Barcelona

Title is back in there hands, which after a disastrous few months would be a great achievement,
although people will disagree because they are a massive club,
they have a manager who does not no what he is doing and a with Valdes out injured a keeper who is not fit enough to lace Ben Hamer's boots.

But with 2 games to go they are 2nd and 3 points behind Atlético Madrid, but play them last game of the season and have a better head to head record, should both teams win this weekend what a game that will be.

Real Madrid blew it for themselves with 2 draws in a row.

    Barcelona winning La Liga this season will be the same as Utd's Prem title last year; their last for some considerable time.

    Na Luis Enrique will come in, in the summer, they will replace Valdes as well as strengthen their defence probably David Luiz
    They will be fine next season

    Ter Stegen coming in for valdes, Luiz at the back and they'll be ok, which is a shame as the transfer ban along with valdes and pinto leaving meant that they were completely screwed for goalkeepers next year!

    I've heard Hamer is replacing Valdes.

    Don't Athletico just need to win at the weekend and then draw against Barca to take the title? Given Athletico can defend and then counter it could go either way in that last game.

    Luiz won't strengthen that defence - he'll make it worse. Barca need a strong, solid, fast centre back so that Bartra can develop into the potentially great player he could be. If they sign Luiz, he'll spend ninety minutes shitting himself instead. Pique being injured is the worst thing that happened to Barca this year - even more so than Valdes.

    Would love to see my favourite player of all time as manager, but have the same mixed feelings as with Powell if it didn't work out for him.

    Atletico deserve to win the league this year - be a travesty if they don't.

    If Barca win the league its because the other two have thrown it away, a bit like City.

    Drew the first game so if its a draw head to head record is the same, barca much better Goal Difference

    That's correct as they are already 3 points clear.

    They're 3 points clear, a draw with Barca means they win the league.

    On current form i wouldn't even fancy Barca to win at Elche this weekend. Barca have been very poor in recent weeks, Elche are unbeaten at home in 2014 and only Atletico have conceded less goals at home. Certainly won't be a walkover.

    Seen today that Rodriguez wants to play in La Liga and Barcelona are interested in him
    With him and Suarez being linked if they got both I feel sorry for other teams in La Liga

    Messi,Neymar,Suarez and Rodriguez
    Rakitic in midfield
    plus there 2 new goalkeepers

    lol I mean before they just had Valdes and no competition they now have 2 good gk's
    If it was me I would line up

    Bravo
    Alves Pique Mascherano Alba
    Iniesta Rakitic
    Messi
    Rodriguez Suarez Neymar

    That to me is a good team
    and you got ter Stegen, Xavi,Busquets, Pedro (Sanchez if he is still there) all on the bench get another defender or 2 for that bench and they will be laughing all the way to the title

    Rodriguez + Suarez would have to cost the best part of £140 million combined.....

    Neither Liverpool or Monaco have to sell so Barca would have to pay top dollar.

    With the ban I reckon SUarez could be got for £50-£60 Million, and Rodriguez I reckon you could get for £60-£65 Million

    Can't see Monaco selling up, they're pushing for the title and will need him to challenge PSG, as their first XI currently reads: Sirigu; Van der Wiel, Thiago Silva, David Luiz, Digne; Lucas Moura, Cabaye, Matuidi, Lavezzi; Cavani, Ibrahimovic

    People like Marquinios, Jallet, Maxwell, Pastore, Motta and Verratti on the bench too.

    Barcelona need a new centre back, a better defensive midfielder and a better forward than Pedro/Sanchez to dominate again, and I'm unconvinced ter Stegen is the answer in goal too

    Well they've just bought Claudio Bravo aswell who has been brilliant for Sociedad, although 12m is a bit steep for a 31 year old

    Xavi was set to leave them last season, but Enrique asked him to stay for one more year, which he agreed to.

    his future has been wide open since but looks like it is finally decided and he is NOT joining the MLS

    he will be replacing Raul at Qatari club Al Sadd
    Xavi is 35 and the rumors are he has been offered a 3 year deal on €10 Million a year

    knew I called this early on here

    Also told my brother @stackitsteve around March last year that Enrique would come in and Barcelona do the treble.

    just wished I had bet on it now

    Have faith in your convictions Paulie. Some will pay off, some will bite you on the arse, but at least nobody can say you don't put your money where your mouth is. (This isn't a dig, by the way.) :smile:

    just think how much it would have been
    not only the treble but also that Enrique was gonna be the next manager(I said it before it was close to being announced)

    won 6-0 on Tuesday
    won 8-0 today

    Also Messi had scored twice and gave a penalty to Neymar to get him on the scoresheet

    If you think we bent over and took it up the Jacky today, that's what two thirds of the Spanish league do every time they play Barca and Real Madrid, even before ball is kicked.
    It's disgraceful.
    That very rarely happens in the prem and that's why it's the best league in the world.

    Only 2-0 at half-time in today's match (against Cordoba). Now THAT'S a capitulation.
