PSG as a team is stronger than barcelona. That is a fact.
The only world class players in barcelona are messi, suarez and busquet.
Now compare to PSG.
Anyway, pray you don't meet them. una go collect.

Psg are a team stronger than Barcelona,you gave no good reason,out meeting with psg for about 6 times will speak,the so called psg that is yet to even win the champions league,the same psg hat was shocked after they where beaten 6-1? If you are talking about this season,why not wait till the season start fully and pray for both team to meet,already judging by their players,what happen to world class man city when they face Monaco last season?

Liverpool's group looks more like an Europa League group. Madrid's group is definitely the group of death. Followed by Chelsea's group
Actually Chelsea's group comes first before Madrid.

Lol, the same thing he did at City sending Hart and Toure on exile. He couldn't reveal his regret out of pride when Bravo started conceding every shot on Target. And had it being he didn't recall Toure, maybe they wouldn't be in the draw today.

Lol but same joe hart flopped at Torino with his usual blunders,how am I sure he will not flop at West Ham?already conceded 7 goals in his 2 EPL games this season

Which yeye ideology?
When real madrid spend millions signing galaticos every year, is it any wonder they win everything? Even barcelona spend millions blowing everybody out of the water.
If the EPL teams had the same revenue sharing formula like spain, you think spain can compete?
Even right now, manchester united is the richest club in the world, now imagine if they are allowed to negotiate their own TV deal by the FA.
They would buy real madrid and barcelona and use it as their toilet.

The English teams are rich regardless. If you had the same sharing formula, only Man U would have been able to compete financially.

You honestly think any Latino would choose the EPL teams ahead of the La Liga Giants, given the same conditions? Nope. Only players considered not good enough look to England. These guys grow up dreaming of playing for either Barca or Madrid. Not even once will you hear any great player say they have been wanting to play for United or those other riff-raff.

Or you think Man U didn't offer Ronaldo a good enough project when he left for Madrid? He left at a time when Man U were doing better than Madrid in Europe. But not even winning at the finest stage of them all could stop him from achieving his dream.

They just don't compare. Some things are beyond just money.

You are really delusional.

This is not an IPOB issue. Don't get emotional over nothing.

There's still a gulf in class between Barca and PSG.

How is psg better than Barcelona?i can agree with juventus,so because psg got neymar makes them automatically better than Barcelona?how do you watch football,the season just started,Madrid beat Barca home and away and everybody is already judging Barcelona downfall,many people judging football with sentiment
You are right, but Barca is already weakened, with their poor defence and Average midfield, it is the MSN that has been carrying them and now that it has been broken people are expecting the worst from them.

We all saw what PSG did to them last season, it was 4 nil in the 1st leg before the ref made poor decisions in the second leg, but the ref wasn't there against Juventus, as they couldn't score a goal against them in both legs.

Maybe you didn't read what Neymar said on Sunday, Barca problem stretches beyond the field, their former president is in jail cos of the deal that brought Neymar from Santos.

The LA Masia is in ruin just as the fg here has ruined the public universities to be producing half baked graduate, the last good thing that came out of La Masia is Sergi Roberto. Even Pique admitted after the Madrid match that for the first time in his 9 years at Barca, Madrid were better than them.

And this is definitely not the time to higher an average coach, it will be worse than the time of Gerardo Matino

Then why did neymar leave barcelona for PSG? If it is not about the money?
And why is ronaldo threatening to come back to england if the tax men don't leave him alone.
Yes, i agree that spanish team have a reputation. But that reputation was built on consistent success as a result of unprecedented wealth. It is not a special spanish quality. It is just a result of wealth-driven success.
Real madrid is a giant today because franco a spanish king spent spanish wealth on it and made it a national symbol.
It is similar to what quatar is doing now with PSG

Playing for Man city is different from playing for Torino and westham. I'm sure he would have fared better than Bravo. If De Gea is keeping for westham, he will be conceding like a basket too.

Jesus navas and negredo never flopped at city,how many games did negredo started,he still managed 9 goals,how many England players have flourished outside the EPL? please name 4 and I will name 20 Spanish players who did well in the EPL

McManaman, becks, lineker, Cunningham.


Point is English players do not move abroad, why move when Epl is the most competitive?

Unlike other nationalities like Spain and others who move virtually across every league

When they bought those players , they were not world class.
Tell barcelona to go buy EPL players like ola aina, stones, drinkwater, onomah e.t.c. and develop them to world class standard like EPL did for xabi alonso.

No Barca go come buy iwobi self

Stop shouting as if Man Utd. won it last year...It's been 9 years...


Relative to Liverpool, Utd carried it more recently. Which is better undecided

Doesn't mean a whole lot, but it is what it is. Conclusion: Utd's record is a shade better

Are shade 1 black and shade 2 black not both black?


Based on this analogy, Chelsea carried it more recently and are therefore a shade better...
