How can people in charge be so scummy and incompetent?

Do Spaniards have cops and laws or are they animals?

>Coutinho hands in transfer request.

>They go after Dembélé. Deal done, matter of hours...BVB asks for €130M. Barça representative says it’s a done deal. Watzke says it’s not a done deal, not even close.

>R. Madrid dances around Barça on the Spanish SuperCup beating them 5-1 on aggregate.
>General Manager Pep Segura criticizes Piqué in public for his own goal.
>Busquets hits back at Pep Segura.
>It's revealed that Barça didn’t sign Asensio because they wanted to pay the €4M transfer over several payments and R. Madrid paid the 4M upfront and swooped in Asensio.
>Camp Nou filled up with madridistas on the 1st leg of the SuperCup, it doesn’t happen the opposite on the 2nd leg.

>Barcelona signs Paulinho for €40M, a 29 y.o. that plays in the Chinese SuperLeague. Everyone is livid.
>During the presentation of Paulinho, vice-president Jordi Mestre admits that Messi hasn't signed the contract extension yet. A month prior to this, Bartomeu lied and said that yes, it was all signed and the only thing left was to make a ceremony.

>Dembélé goes missing from training at Dortmund. Everyone points at FC Barcelona for this behavior.
>Barcelona gives Liverpool an ultimatum to accept their offer. Liverpool's officials find it funny.

3/3

>Barcelona-based newspapers tell that Seri is a matter of hours and that the release clause is €40M, which will be paid. Barça offers €35M. Nice says that release clause is expired and the asking price is €40M + players.

>Barcelona wants to sue Neymar for €9.3M.
>Neymar speaks against Barça’s board.

>Now Seri is not wanted by Pep Segura at FCB. The player had already bid farewell to his teammates. They tell this to him by phone.

>They go after Di Maria. PSG rejects the offer and deems Di Maria as “not for sale”.
>Messi, Neymar, and Rakitic post on social media about a a few players attending Neymar’s son b-day party and banter about the “Se queda”.

>FC Barcelona twitter and facebook accounts get hacked.

>TO BE CONTINUED...

>but he’s asking for the €26M signing bonus from his last contract with FCB.
Why didn't they just make it so the bonus only triggered at the end of the window? Why have a loyalty bonus that triggers during a window?

>Do Spaniards have cops and laws
Yes, one of my friends once got glove slapped by a Spanish policeman, because someone on the floor of the hotel we were staying in had weed.

>post yfw Messi leaves for city and barca get relegated
>post yfw liverpool buy luis Suarez back next season
>post yfw Catalonia becomes its own country and barca can't even do better than relegation fodder in fucking France

hola reddit

>tfw you were born in time to witness the rise and fall of Barcelona

Barcelona fans have had it too good for the past 10 years. They deserve this period of being the butt of everyone's joke.

this, im not even mad, i just dont want halal shitdrid to win everything now

the absolute state of this club. and I thought Bayern went full meme in the past few years.

dortmund can no longer sell Dembélé cause this would indirectly approve his behaviour.

still kinda funny how barcelona manages to crash and burn within a single transfer window.

Can't they just go for decent young players with really low buyout clauses like Real Madrid did?

The Coutinho part is honestly the most hilarious.

>Hey Liverpool we want Coutinho here's 120mil
>No, he's not for sale
>YES OR NO LIVERPOOL
>Uh we already said no
>LIVERPOOL TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT FINAL OFFER
>wtf go away

Coutinho: £140m
Dembele: £130m
Seri: £40m+
Watching Barcelona throw their toys out the pram and crumble at the foundations: Priceless

...

Just seeing this from Madrid fans makes me cringe.

>using the word cringe
Bye reddit

They're now going after some Valencia midfielder


Top kek

Well that worked out well with Gomes, so why not?

At first I was

But then

>Neymar gone
>Messi and Iniesta are free to leave on Bosman transfers next year

Weird to see Barca take such a dramatic downturn right before our eyes, but also fuck em. Maybe Messi can go establish himself at another club, hang out with Pep at City or something, that'd be fun.

A YOUNG BOY

>Seri's agent: You come to Nice, finish negotiations and then say 'technical decision'? Very rare.

>>Piqué tweets the infamous “Se queda” and everyone in Barcelona rejoices and mocks PSG. 10 days later Neymar signs for PSG.

>>They go after Coutinho. Deal done, matter of hours…Fenway Sports Group publicly tells Barça to stop pursuing Coutinho and Liverpool’s Spanish twitter account mocks the “Se queda”

Savage.

Is Bartomeu and his kike friends looking to get fired by September? How can one board fuck up this much in just one summer?

The Barcelona board is an absolute joke. A day after getting raped at Bernabeu they said dembele and coutinho deals were done and literally both clubs laughed at them. They don't trust the la masia even though it gave them an entire generation of soccer legends and are too fucking Jewish to spend.

So this is how Barcelona ends. Literally a.c. Milan tier shit decisions. See y'all in 10 years when the club is bought by China.

Nice ctrl+c ctrl+v from reddit

>So this is how Barcelona ends.

Not with a bang, but a whimper.

RIP in peace, sweet prince.

>more than a club
