@@Liverpool-Thedirtyredteam "Too big to fail" doesn't mean it can never fail. It's an economic term referring to the gigantic enterprises (especially banks) in modern capitalist economy. They occupy such an important level to keep the capitalist economy running, so when they fail, the system they are in may be severely damaged. As a result, those who benefit from this system (and hold most power) will actively help these institutions to prevent them from failing despite their incompetence. Therefore, this means something more like "too big to be allowed to fail".

Fifa doesn't have the balls to punish them over their financial situation. Where as a lower tier club would have been hammered by now and closed with debts a fraction of that of Barca. It's a real shame. As they have a loyal fanbase who spend their hard earned money on supporting the team. All for them to clearly overspend. Where is the financial fair play rules now. Ohhh what.

The best thing that could happen to European football would be for some of these super rich and yet super in debt clubs to go bankrupt. Maybe then we'd see some sweeping changes in the way football is run in Europe (for the fans, not for the wallets) and we might actually see some actual financial fair play instead of clubs being either bankrolled by shady 'investors' or through outlandish loans.

I see more and more terms spending a lot with players and I always thought that this could be a problem to a lot of big clubs in the future. Hopefully, nothing will happen to Barça, but if it does, I hope that turns on the yellow light to all the clubs in the world.

Unfortunately not, which is a real shame as lessons need to be learned by most clubs about the obscene salaries paid to lure players in, Barca being one of the worst for it, unsettling players at rival clubs with talk of interest and big money deals. They should not be able to talk to any player who has penned a contract until that contract has ended, this should be the same for every club. It would help stop players acting like spoiled kids in order to manufacture a move for big bucks, or force the club they are with into offering to pay them more money just to keep them. A contract is a worthless bit of paper these days as so many get out clauses, or the sheer fact the player just wants a move because he's been taken off, not played or maybe his shirt was creased??

Who is Real's biggest legend? It was always a big debate. Ronaldo? Cr7? Raul? Ramos? Zidane? We now know the answer. It's Barto. The greatest double agent in football history. You cannot destroy a club this much without doing it on purpose. He even went to jail for his true team. What a legend

A common thread amongst all great bankruptcies be it banking, entertainment, industry or sport is the belief the entity was too big to fail.

We hope so

do a video on the best players to have played with both messi and ronaldo and if possible a best XI of players to have played with bith Messi and Ronaldo.

We live in a world were Burnley are more financially stable than Barcelona 🤣

Finally, someone who understands that selling Messi would have been a catastrophic decision for Barça. I'll go out on a limb here and say half of Barça's fan base support the club because of Messi. And it is because of Messi that Barça are somewhat able to compete for the La Liga and CL title. Sure, the overall debt may reduce with Messi's sale and what then? They'll still be left with massive debt and without the biggest generator of revenue for the club. With Messi gone, La Liga's TV rating will inevitably drop and that would mean less money in broadcasting revenue, less money in from merchandise and other brand deals. There's a reason Bartomeu pulled every scummy move in the book in order to keep Messi at the club. The guy maybe a corrupt bastard, but he's not an idiot.

He could have tried keeping Messi in the club by simply being good with transfers and not destroying the club. But no, he has to keep Messi in jail.

You can term out the debt and, given their marketability, they probably will and wont have trouble finding lenders. Regarding transfers, i doubt you are going to see many transfers over 50 million right now because all european clubs are largely in the same boat. The positive is if Laporte revamps La Masia like he probably will, they will be selling and wont need to make many transfers.

So in simplistic word, it is the wage bill and business model. Even other clubs have hit on commercial revenue due to pandemic and big money transfers happen at almost all big clubs. I never knew Griezmann would be earning 900k a week and Messi with 2.5M a week.

Day 29: Teams with the most draws in one season

All time Premier League 11 vs All time La Liga 11 And same could be done for other Leagues SeriesA, League1 and Bundisliga As a Series and ranking which league comes 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th in historic 11s or rather in your case 7s

Video Idea: 7 players who are eligible to play for 3 or more nations

Interesting to see how Laporta handles everything

Barcelona's talents from la masia are indeed gifted, but the problem is whether they can use them or not, which is down to the manager. We can expect that Barca will sell a lot of senior team players, mostly deadwood who eaten up wages bill like Umtiti, Firpo, etc

Great vid

They will be able to roll it in short term money markets, it will cost them but their free cash flow is probably enough to faciliatate this process.

Hopefully 🙏🏻

The day Messi leaves this club will cripple them. This football team is about to enter a very dark period and it's such a sad thing to see considering just how dominant they've been.

Nah they will always be a top top team

This was made in Mar and yesterday the new board came out and admitted the wage bill is not 60% but its 113% of revenue and also there total debt is over 1 billion. they are looking to lend over 500 million which now looks like it will be very short term at best or not raised at worse. THERE IS A VERY IMMEDIATE CHANCE THAT THERE WILL BE NO BARCELONA FOOTBALL TEAM COME THE END OF THIS YEAR.

Could you do a champions league one too?

You forget that clubs don't actually get the money from players shirts. The shirt maker (Adidas/Nike) gets that money as it's part of the huge deal that they sign. Clubs are lucky to get 10%

As a Barca fan there couldn't be a better way to start my day.

Glad I get to visit Camp Nou before its closure, for debt.

Please do Real Madrid's financial and sporting status since Ronaldo left and in the near future.

An idea (day 1): First XI of active La Masia graduates with less than 100 caps playing outside of Barcelona. Alcantara cousins come to mind (apparently Thiago has exactly 100 appearances, while Raphina has 90).
