Well with Messi and Ego'o injured we didn't have a choice.  We even played Iniesta there on occasion!  Giuly does have his uses to be fair, it is just very frustrating when he can't control a simple pass or he chooses the wrong option and doesn't cross the ball. 

When he is on form he is a formidable opponent.  The comparison with Luis Garcia is a good one.  I have to say I was glad when you bought him and could you explain why you bought Bolo Zenden?  He is one of the players I have hated most at Camp Nou.

Zenden, we signed for free after he had two or three good seasons at Middlesbrough. He was supposed to give us cover at LM and in central midfield.

But to be quite frank with you, he's utterly . The sooner he goes the better. He brings absolutely nothing to the squad when he plays.

He's had one or two good games.

Zenden was quite good at Middlesbrough when we signed him i thought we got a great cover for the midfield litle as i realise his was and garcia i juz love that litle basterd althou the does makes alot of mistake he will suddenly have a touch of genius and do somethin magical...will be missed

He has a point Sabre.

Yes he has, but from 15 years and beyond, it's the last stages of development. Liverpool is doing the same atm, picking players of that age to set them up for the first team, I see no differences between the youth politic of Liverpool and Barcelona, which was my point.

I didn't mean they do not a decent work with youngsters, but that they do sign up the youngster from all the world at a quite advanced state of development. So they haven't got a point in calling us Wenger-esque.

Bojan is going to be one hell of a player, he's scored over 800 goals in seven years for Barca's youth team.

Barca are lucky to have both Bojan and Dos Santos at their disposal.

Cheers AB

Woof-friendly version

Just click once  to watch Bojan

He looked a bit lightweight and small in that video but I've seen recent pictures of him training with Barca's 1st team.

The lad is now as big as Eto'o. It seems like he's having a growing sprout

Sabre, do you think Liverpool should make a move for him? Or would Barca just not let him go?

Who Bojan? No chance in hell.

His father has been Barca's scout since 1997, I doubt that he would let his son leave especially since he's on the verge of breaking through the first team.

He's only 16, so he hasn't got a professional contract yet. The laws in Spain and England are different, which is why Fabregas and Merida were taken by Arsenal and Barca could do nothing about it.

why u answerin ya own question?

There would be riots in Barcelona if Bojan was poached.  He, along with Messi, Dos Santos and Valiente are going to be the backbone of the next generation. 

Cruyff has been saying that this present team has come to the end of it's cycle, and I think he may be right that this will be the last season that we can keep them together.  So hopefully these kids will be part of the Dream Team mark III!

If you poach Dos Santos, I'll be calling you a lot more than Wenger-esque!  You bet your house on it!
