Honestly I feel like i'm more excited to watch La Liga than i have been in years.

Let's be honest it was the same old shyt for years, narrative wise anyway.

Messi, messi, messi. Be nice to see some of Barca's young players step in to the spotlight, if they keep them all that is.

Everybody’s writing Barça off, but I fully expect them to be in title contention in May. RM has a lot of question marks and Atleti is Atleti (we never make anything easy for ourselves). The title race in La Liga should be fun.
if they would get a dm who can run and tackle and got cb besides Garcia, who is terrible, I would see them competing. but their midfield is getting ran over again with Busquet as the main dm.
They do have De Jong and Pedri though, who I think are the best young midfield pair. but they need a dm. imagine a Camavinga or just any one of those random ligue 1 dms.

Was a Tottenham yout :francis:

Didn't he leave around the same time as Jose came to the club? But IIRC there was talk of him leaving while Poch was still incharge anyway. Probably saw what happened to Marcus Edwards and like yup I'm off. For all the young players in the academy I don't really remember any coming thru and staying in the squad under Poch minus Winks.

Yeah. Mourinho and Pep teams killed La Liga for me. Use to be an avid watcher from 96 basically Sky's first year showing La Liga til about 11/12-12/13 season. With that said the football has become rather boring throughout the rest of the league.

Might watch my first El Classico in about 3 years:ehh:

Could be the best thing to happen to Barca in years, given some time. It's an awkward position to be in having a player that's bigger than the organisation itself.

Couldn't be my club:hubie:

I didn't even know he came from us tbh , Googled him after I seen the highlights . I've giving up on following the Tottenham youth players because more time you know they're not breaking into the first team like that , unless your in the mold of Ryan Mason and Harry Winks . Tanganga gone in a couple seasons.

That's why I rate Kane because I honestly thought he was just gonna be another Lee Bernard

Their whole history is geniuses bailing them out.

They're going to do the same thing in 15-20 years.
