1/a few - some seem to have a problem with the habit in spain of answering questions about players from other teams
at barcelona, there is a daily press conference from one player with free questions, among which "opinion on latest transfer rumour?"
be it neymar, javi martinez, neymar, agger, neymar, soriano, neymar, song, or neymar, the standard answer is "great player, would fit in"
same happens in all spanish clubs. pepe, arbeloa, higuain or casillas have for example talked about modric.
most people in most countries like it that a player of their club is talked positive about by another player
in england, there seems to be an extra limit to freedom of speech which involves players saying positive things when asked about a colleague
doing it would even be part of a strategy to destabilize the praised player, make him lose his head and force his way out of his club
all this coordinated by 100 dwarves trained by the cia and operating from a secret bunker under the camp nou
note: we advise arsenal to talk to rennes who so far could hold on to m'vila despite destabilization campaign involving sagna and koscielny

if lack of education or openness, or fanatism, prevents some from understanding or respecting other cultures, barcelona could be bigger man
we advise players to add new standard answer to repertoire. "player epl? i don't want to mentally destabilize my colleague by praising him"
for players of other leagues, they can continue with: "great player, would fit in". cancelling all press meetings is also option we support
on a second thought, we've always thought a private destabilization campaign through text messages would be more effective than a public one
on a third thought, we would advise the club not to sign any mentally unstable players who feel unsettled because of a compliment
He He det er lidt sjovt, men jeg synes de rammer plet. Jeg er efterhånden godt og grundigt træt af det hykleri som hersker i engelsk fodbold og hos de engelske fans samt medier.if you don't know what this was about: keep it that way :-)
Her kritiserer han Arsenal eller er sur/frustreret over at de ikke vil forhandle med Man Utd?. Tænk hvis en Barca træner havde sagt det?. Men ja, ingen Man Utd fan der reagerer voldsomt."I can't give you any more information," said the boss when asked about van Persie after United's 0-0 draw with Barcelona. "We have made a bid and they've been trying to negotiate with other clubs. We just have to persevere. Hopefully it will come our way. We're trying our best but there's no progress at this moment in time.
"I don't have a gut feeling on it at the moment, I must admit. We're not getting any breakthrough with Arsenal. It's difficult to say why they're operating this way. I don't know what their thoughts are because they're not giving anything away."

Henrik Larsson: “It’s a pleasure to watch Barça”
Speaking after FC Barcelona’s match against Manchester United in Gothenburg on Wednesday, former Barça and Sweden striker Henrik Larsson (40) admitted that it’s a pleasure to watch Barça in action.
Larsson was at the game between Barça and Manchester United on Wednesday night and seemed to enjoy the match. When asked about his former team, he said, “It is a pleasure to watch Barça. I think they can challenge for everything again. They have such essential players like Xavi, Iniesta, Messi. Right now they are the best team in the world.”
Henrik Larsson, who was at FC Barcelona for two years from 2004 to 2006, moved to Barcelona from Celtic and won 2 Liga titles, 1 Champions League and one Spanish Super Cup during his 2 year tenure at the Catalan club.
When he was quizzed about the contenders for the Ballon d’Or, he said he was sure that Lionel Messi would win it again after his phenomenal season: “Messi, because he’s the best.” Larsson, who was part of the squad when Messi made his debut, remarked, “I remember the first time I saw him in training and it was incredible.”
Henrik Larsson played for Manchester United as well for a brief period of time before returning to Sweden to play for Helsinborg, where he retired as a player. He is now the manager of Landskrona Bols, who play in the Swedish second division.

Seven players took part in all 5 preseason games this summer: Alves, Bartra, Mascherano, Sergi Roberto, Rafinha, Alexis, Afellay [via md]
Barcelona's all-time topscorers (incl friendlies): Alcantara 369 - Samitier 326 - Cesar 291 - Messi 275 - Kubala 274
Vi starter med et umenneskeligt program.Barcelona will start the season with 5 official games (plus Gamper) in 15 days #fcblive Sociedad, Madrid, Osasuna, Madrid, Valencia [via md]
Et godt tegn på, at man oftest ikke kan bruge statistisk til noget som helst. Det der er jo misvisende, meget belejligt fik vi straffesparks i bunkevis, da det hele var afgjort og Real var mestre. Billedet var andet, da vi lå og kæmpede med om mesterskabet, hvem husker ikke Osasuna kampen, Espanyol kampen, bare for at nævne to.Most Liga penalties awarded last season: Real Madrid 13 - Barcelona 11 - Villarreal 9 - Levante 8 #fcblive [via @allthingsmessi]
Barcelona at this moment has 8 foreigners in the first team squad, which is the lowest number since the 1995-96 season (5) [via fcb]
Det er noget der gør mig stolt som fan. I år kan vi for første gang stille et rent La Masia hold, og det hold vil være tæt på verdens bedste, det er noget at være stolt over.68% of FC Barcelona’s first team squad are players groomed in the La Masia – far exceeding the percentage of first team academy players in any other club.
Bayern Munich are a distant second with 38%.
FC Barcelona has so far signed only one new player for the 2012-13 season, Jordi Alba. The last time the club signed only a single new player in the off-season was back in 1993-4. The signing: none other than Romário. His price: 12 million Euros.
