titi shud be offloaded this summer, considering how overpaid he is, and we cannot get anything in return if we try to sell later.
erm david beckham?
the oly player that i really really wanna see in the barca shirt is
IBRAKADABRA .
i can't even name a striker whose on the same level as him .
and before i get hammerd with comments note that i said STRIKER so messi is'nt included.
when there was a rumer that he was close to joining barca i said two things (tixiki=geunius , moratti=ideot) too bad he renewed his contract.
They all dont deserve this "silly money" way too much.
@ Hamad Ali ..
I rate Eto'o a better striker than Ibrahimovich .. Don't get me wrong, Ibra is class, but Eto'o fits our system better. Plus Ibra doesn't score 19 goals in 19 matches :)
@ hamad ali
I'd rather die before I see Ibrahimovic in a Barca-shirt. You'd need to look far to find a more arrogant person than him.
