    I would say Laporta is the major reason the club has revived itself back. The levers he pulled so Xavi could get players he like despite having financial crisis. Then Alemany with his negotiation skills and SD skills helped loading off many players on loan or selling them . Last but not least Xavi Hernandez - legendary player of Barca and came into the scene and helped us get the league trophy after 4 years 💙♥️

      Barcelona just lives, because they got away with their fraud and are part of the UEFA money driven business. The fans and supporters got back to reality out of hate driven fantasy-land. Some will stay, and accept that old fantasy stories were debunked. And others left the club and football, some others watch Real or Espanyol, or Portuguese now, as they are fully comparable, but more solid.

    One lesser-known aspect of Barcelona's debt is that acquiring players is not a major issue for the club. They can easily adjust their debt to purchase players for over 50M if necessary. However, the challenge lies in the registration process, which has been problematic for Barcelona in recent years due to the strict FFP regulations of La Liga, that didn't even ease even during lockdowns. And with other leagues in the world not following La Liga's FFP, La Liga's policies have forced most clubs, except Real Madrid, to either sell their key players or activate Economic Levers to meet the registration requirements.
    This season, the departures of Busquets, Alba, and Pique will reduce Barcelona's wage bill by 120 million (wtf Bartomeu). As a result, Barcelona will return to a 1:1 wage registration ratio according to La Liga's FFP rules. This means that registering players for Barcelona will be relatively easier this summer compared to the previous summer.

    • @MrReese
      @MrReese Год назад +3

      I don't think that is a lesser known aspect as we have seen this happening all year long after all. Barca wanted to get rid of several players that are important but earn a lot (most prominently de Jong) in order to reduce the wage spending and thus be able to register players like Lewa and other new signings.

    As a Barça supporter, I'm loving the direction the club is going (thanks to Laporta). The issues that Barcelona still faces are our bench which lacks of good players, the injured key players (like Pedri, Araujo and Dembele), without them Barcelona is another club. Besides that, I hope the team begins to compete in Europe, in this season, we didn't have our main team against United unfortunately.

Highest wage bill in europe excluding psg, players fighting (good punch from mane), players wanting to leave (welcome kimmich), almost bottling the title, sacking their coach and directors.

    From 1920's till 1990, the referee comitee was 95% of the time lead either by Real Madrid executives, ex-excutives, ex-players, and "socios". So when Real comes and denaunce they've been damaged by negreira payments, it's an act of cinicism that cannot go unnoticed. Thats why Laporta said that... not a simple smoke screen. Also thanks to Franco's regime, Real stole Di stefano (one of the greatest players of all time and won 5 european cups with Real...) when he already agreed to sign for Barça. We claim thinks as they've been, they're facts...

      @@bo4Elite To Franco, Barcelona was another tool to push his regime. Remember without other strong teams the league is less interesting to viewers. It was in his interest to save Barcelona as not only would it continue to be a relevant rival to Madrid and Atletico sporting wise, but also ideology as Barcelona served the role of representing the people of the Catalan region who "supported" Franco.
      Think, why would Franco remove FC Barcelona alltogether and have the difficulty of forcing hundreds of thousands of supporters to join a new team or lose interest in football? Instead they rename Barca and continue to indoctrinate the people into serving Franco.
      Now, I won't say Franco didn't mistreat Real Madrid because that would be a lie, as Madrid were also forced to support Franco. However, that doesn't make it false that Franco pushed for the signing of Di Stefano to Real Madrid by forcing Barcelona to share him.
      The effects of this era are seen to this day in every aspect of football in Spain, and it's a complex subject with issues that aren't "black and white". So it's foolish for you to come out and say "fRaNcO hELpEd bArCA sO tHeY aRe HIs tEaM", that is ignorant and the logic of a 4 year old.

    As a Barca fan, Xavi reign hasn't been all sunshine and rainbows with the fanbase. Some see him as can't do no wrong, and some see him hate how he treated Dest, how little he plays Fati, some out of position decisions, and keeping Sergi Roberto in general.
    As for Laporta, he beat Victor Font mostly in part because voters didn't have to envision a plan, they already knew what Laporta could do since the last time the team was most successful, Laporta was in charge. Font hasn't gotten over losing, as recently as last year he was criticizing Laporta.
    I will say I don't see them as becoming the Man United of Spain in the sense of where United has been as of late. I trust Laporta won't miss manage the behind the scenes as much as the Glazers did.

    Now he's salvaging the club once again.

    Great video as always!
    I am from Barcelona, and as far as I understand from reading the media here and all, there will be no more levers pulled this summer, since LaLiga changed their rules to make levers not increase the financial fair play, which was why they were used. I don't know how ffp works, so I won't add nothing more to that.
    About the 1.5b debt, as long as it's not short-term, I don't think it's much of a problem (I'm not an economist obviously), since Barça are one of the clubs with the highest revenue. Just before the pandemic (different times, I know), we hit 1b revenue per year. So again, as long as the debt isn't short-term, I think we're fine. The problem a couple of years back was that much of this debt was short-term, but Laporta's board managed to renegotiate it for later on.
    Now, as a Barcelona fan, I am very optimistic on the future. Most of our best players are very young (Pedri, Gavi, Araújo, Balde, Kounde, even FDJ and Dembele even though they're a bit older). We desperately need someone to fill Busquests' shoes, like Zubimendi or Amrabat (and if we manage to get Messi, that'd be glorious).
    I think we can compete in both LaLiga and CL, knowing of course we are not the favourites in the latter (City is too good lol, Madrid in the CL is unreal, and Bayern, even if unstable, are still extremely dangerous, to name a few). But we should be able to go back to the minimum requirement of the quaterfinals without many issues.
    And about the other matters, the Negreira case here has cooled off a bit. Before every newspaper (mainly the Madrid ones) had 4 articles a day about the case. Now I have only seen one in this month, I think. Based on that, I think we'll be ruled out innocent, but we have to wait for the judge.
    And about the Regime thing, I thought it unfortunate of Laporta to say it, but most people here agree with him. Not going to say more since it's a spiky topic.

    A question for Barca fans, what do you guys think about Koeman? From the outside looking in, I think he did okay (not good, okay) with the playerd and time he had and the chaos the club was in at the time. He introduced a lot of new players and steadied the ship. In the end, it wasn't working out, but to me it seems he layed the groundworks for Xavi to take it to the next level.

    • @M.Sajid98
      @M.Sajid98 Год назад +2

      He did what every Dutch manager at Barca has done and that is laying down the ground work. Just look at how many players of the golden generation made their debut under van Gaal and Frank Rijkaard and same can be said about Koeman but at the same time he was his biggest enemy and towards the end it felt like he was asking to be sacked with the remarks he kept on making towards the board especially Laporta. His game play wasn't exciting to watch but at the same time he didn't have the backing of the board and hence never actually got the proper team he wanted.
      But regardless his time as manager he will always be remembered as one of our best center backs and crucial player in Cruyff dream team leading to Barca's first UCL.

    • @VarunKumar-ro4ll
      @VarunKumar-ro4ll Год назад +2

      He came in at a time of uncertainty, with a refurbished squad. As a club legend and an imposing figure he was somewhat able to steady the ship but limitations in his tactics and style of play was pretty evident. While I still think Xavi should've been forced to have European experience before being handed the job, it was clear that Koeman was never the man for this board who wanted a fresh start altogether. Still a club legend but never good enough in the long term for a big club.

      Positives: He encouraged talent and played them, sometimes too much and sometimes the perfect amount. He does good in cup and tournament football, that's why he was the best with the Netherlands.
      Negatives: He was playing a pessimistic 5-3-2 at a club like Barça, blasphemy. No natural wingers and way too many defenders. He is pessimistic and egotistical. He would blame the players and say crazy stuff. He still is very petty and angry, talking shit about Barça, he did that when stuff was going wrong as a manager too.

The president of Barcelona during the civil war was assassinated by Franco troops after they arrested him in 1936. His name Josep Sunyol. How could a club as FC Barcelona, with the history they have of supporting independence from Spain, be beneficiated by a state they always hated?

      ​​@@Trx957 Yes they have to. It is what they did when Franco was the dictator. Stealing Stefano, Not allowing Barca to name their stadium "Joan Gamper", Barca players were cut out from highlights whenever they scored goals for Spain, installing a puppet government in Barca board to halt the progress of the club, suppression of Catalinya, Johan Cruyff stopped from naming his son "Jordi". And countless many other things. It still reflects today. Everyone in Spain likes Real even if they do not support them, Barca are the villains or outsiders since the Catalans wanted their own independent state. An ex LaLiga ref said that 90% of Referees are Madrid fans. The media is in Madrid's hand that is why when Barca were suspected to have paid the refs the media reported on it like crazy and said that Barca could get suspended from CL, even LaLiga's president joined the agenda. Will that ever happen in the PL, will they themselves try to sabotage their leagues biggest club? When no proof was found, no media coverage whatsoever. This is the reason why Barca has a bad image outside of Spain as the Spainish media is constantly bashing and trying to defame Barca ever since they got better than Real. Although the political tensions are not really as high as it was in the last century. The tensions are not even noticeable. But the effect the media, and Francisco's era created is still felt till this day. Barca could have been way more successful in 50s ans 60s if it was not for Fransisco.

So, if we're being objective, like a true reporter should be, your take on this subject falls short, Tinashe. A genuine reporter would present the facts, but you seem to have sidestepped them.

However, you could have done a better job addressing this matter. Believe me, I understand it's a sensitive topic, and even the slightest hint of bias could make someone want to "cut your head off." But let's remember, facts aren't biased; they are simply what is known or proven to be true.

    I don't appreciate the fear-mongering surrounding the Negreira case. It was fairly monumental when it came up, but the more information we've gotten about it - including the little detail that the Catalan prosecutor's office which brought the case up stating that it's a nothing burger - and Laporta in a press conference literally showing the technical reports they received, the less prominence it holds.
    Also 7 million over 18 years is not that much money. Out of all the shit slinging I've seen, this Negreira bullshit is the most malicious. We can apparently accuse any club of cheating, and it's impossible to prove a negative, since that's not how law enforcement works, so I guess everyone's cheating.

    Not to be rude to Madrid fans but it's the truth.
    Referees have stopped Barça from legally winning titles many times, even more before VAR came in. But even in times of VAR they managed to do amazing things like not marking that hand from Fred at Camp Nou as penalty.

    Just wanted to add, the Negreira case all but lost steam after the prosecutors said that they had seen zero evidence that Barca paid to have refs favour them. Further to that, Barca provided substantial evidence proving that they indeed got reports that were given to them by Negreiras son, who run the company that Negreira owned. I realise that even if Barca didn't bribe refs, ethically what they did between 2013 and 2018 (the period during which Negreira served as V.P of the refs committee) is reprehensible and I wish that all the people who led to this debacle can be brought to book.
    Having said that, listing off all the titles Barca won between 2001-2018 so as to question the credibility of those achievements based on accusations that the authorities have themselves called baseless is at best careless and at worst disingenuous of you.
    If you'd like to hear in full detail about the Negreira case, including why it was more of a smear campaign that preyed on the terrible management that the club had been under, I'd be more than happy to share with you the facts around the story, including the ones that news agencies actively chose to not publish.
