La Liga

Barcelona just made another signing by beating Chelsea for Kounde at a tidy 55M fee.

They have now added Lewa, Kessie, Kounde, Raphina, Pablo Torre and Christensen to their team this summer which is another example of what a farce the FFP controls are when a team with over a billion in debt can spend this kind of money on transfer fees and wages.

Barcelona will just continue to sell off future revenue streams (as mentioned in article above) so it's a very short-sighted approach they're using.

Must be desperate for money. May pop my toe into this.

Very disjointed performance from Barca, going to take a few games for the attack to gel but unfortunately for them results are expect right away given all the "levers" used to buy their new players

Currently watching El Clasico Kings Cup final from Saudi Arabia.

Real not looking all that at the minute.

Would be 4 defeats in 10 games.  You know they come to life in the champions league. We could do with pedri and gavi.

Yeah both playing well.

And you know fuckers will be well up for it on 21st Feb.

Watching a stream of Copa Del Rey Quarter Final between Real and Atleti 1-1 currently, been a decent game.

Looks like benzema has done the job again, especially with atletico down to 10 men.

Threw it away themselves, taking off Morata and trying to defend a one goal lead and then Savic getting two yellows for dickhead challenges.

Anyone notice how madrid have the same line up every week. Zero injuries two 35 year old midfielders….must be different rules in terms of sports science and ours

Absolutely awful what Vinicius is having to deal with over there.

Disgusting and shameful: The club should be warned if it continues they will be thrown out of the league.

Once again, instead of criticizing racists, the president of LaLiga appears on social media to attack me.

As much as you talk and pretend not to read, the image of your championship is shaken. See the responses to your posts and have a surprise...

Omitting yourself only makes you equal to racists. I'm not your friend to talk about racism. I want actions and punishments. Hashtag doesn't move me.

the Red Card looked harsh as it seemed an accidental arm thrown hit him and after what had happened it was amazing he stayed on for as long as he did. Surely the Ref should have taken the players of the pitch until it settled down but the crowd were out of control. Sometimes you have to check what year it is with some people. Spain does have a history of this kind of stuff and tend to dismiss it out of hand
