I mean two of their CL titles were directly on the backs of the most famously egregious officiated match in modern soccer history and the single most egregious decision in modern soccer history.

So yes, they did need historic levels of gifting.

I like Spanish soccer, but the owners and govt are crooked as hell. They extort the stats when they leave with taxes.

FDJ should go to Madrid just to spite Barcelona

I don't know. Kroos is gone after this year and Modric can't possibly play forever. Touchameni has taken Casemiro's spot and excelled.

That is massively stupid. Golden annuities are always a bad idea, and they'll probably end up paying hundreds of millions to get out of it like the NBA finally did with the the ABA St Louis owners.

The NBA actually generates positive revenue, though.

When will Barca be able to save up enough money to do this? Every year they go further into debt

It's more likely this offseason they unload even more for short-term revenue accounting while they dig the hole deeper.

I got flamed to shite when I said it would be a financial disaster of epic proportions when they finish 3rd of their group in August.

Seems like Barcelona mailed it in today, I don't even recognize half the names that played.
