Topic: Barcelona in La Liga, should they stay or not? - page 2. (Read 756 times)

Hi everyone )
I think FC Barcelona should and will stay in La Liga because of many reasons.
The first reason it is hard to find league in same power of La Liga if we like or no teams in Spain very strong and we see that  in last 5 years, in champion league [real Madrid(3 times win it), Barcelona(1 time win it), Atletico( 2 times in final) ] in Europe league[ Séville( 3 times win it)].
The second reason it is Real Madrid yes Real Madrid, we all know how much Barca fans hate Real and when they win a Clasico they win a trophy, so how fans of Barca leave La Liga and miss the chance to show the world who the best between them.
The third reason an important one is what level Barcelona will play, I mean if Barca  leave La Liga and found another league does she play in Professional Classification or beginner Classification and if she plays in Professional Classification I'm  sure she will miss play champion league for one year, do you think her fans want or accept that I don't think that.
Finally, The official spokesman for the Blaugrana, Josep Vives says on 13 September 2017"Barcelona do not think of such a scenario, simply, we want to win the Spanish La Liga, and the same applies to the Champions League." and he said too "The club does not talk about the political side, we are not forced to discuss it (politics), but yes about football, how to improve the competition and be more competitive", so it clearly that Barcelona wants to stay in LA Liga.

In my opinion yes, I don't think they can afford to lose such team. Too much money is involved(unfortunately it is all about money).
True, but Barcelona is not the only one football club from Catalonia.
If they allow them to compete then they should allow all clubs to compete.

La Liga will lose a lot of fans, that's right. Now La Liga Rating is one of the biggest. But the Rating will go down considerably if Barcelona do not play again in La Liga because there is nothing interesting that we can see. So we recommend that Barcelona stay in La Liga if they do not want something bad to happen.

Politics should stay out of sports. Now with political struggles and issues, both spanish football and FC Barcelona face a real problem. La liga will lost many fans and viewers, and barcelona will be affected on both sports level and economic level. This problem should be solved otherwise the map of football would change if Barcelona leaves the spanish league.

Its not a matter of staying or not... You need to look above politics and follow the money. Football is a big business. Can you imagine the money Barcelona would lose if they leave the La Liga. No more money from TV rights, no more money from Champions League, no more money from sponsorship... If Barca leaves La Liga that will be the end of Barcelona Football Club. That is the reality... So politics is politics, but shit walks and money talks.

Laliga and Barcelona both of them are a part of football history in spain and i personally cannot imagine if Laliga without Barcelona and football should be not to be linked with politic and also football should be independent with all kind of these so i think whatever the results if this i think spain government and Catalonia should be allowed Barcelona still play on Laliga

Right off the bat, whatever the outcome for Catalonia, the question of Barcelona in the La Liga should only have one answer: the one where everybody wins. I want to say politics shouldn't be in football, but it's difficult to ignore 125 years of politics that is so much of the identity of the maroon and blue. Their flags don't bear the Spanish shield, their chants have so much under and overtones.

And let that all remain. Welsh clubs play in the English league. Brunei used to play in the Malaysian league and now in Singapore's, despite softened but tense politics. Catalan clubs will play in La Liga if they are good enough. No question.

La Liga should think again about the achievements given by Barcelona. Especially in the last 10 years Barcelona became one of the best in Europe and even in the world. It would be a mistake and big loss if La Liga decide to cross out Barcelona from La Liga.

Whatever happens with the world of politics should not affect the world of sport. If Catalonia gained its freedom, Barcelona should remain at La Liga. And if La Liga wanted to take Barcelona out, at least they need time to do so. Barcelona is a big team and gives a bunch of contribution on it.

Although I do agree that politics should stay out of football, it is not the case for Barcelona though. Most of their management staff and the fans themselves actually consider the rivalry between the Madridistas as a political statement. Although that ruins football for other people, it is just so ingrained in the people that they cannot just easily break away from it.

It's hard to imagine La Liga without Barcelona, and to be honest I don't think Catalonia will ever get what they want, but if it really happens then I think they could be treated just like Monaco. They are independent but they still play in french league. Don't know if there are similar cases around the world, but it would be unfair if they were just kicked out, without the opportunity to stay where they always were.

This is politics and wherever their political heads settle I think should be where they'd opt for. I don't think any of the leagues be it la liga or ligue Un isn't fit for them so they should have no problem playing in a good league even though I'd prefer they stay in la liga.

I think so too, they will prefer to stay in their he la liga to rival Real Madrid than to leave for the uninspiring French league one. I know it will be easier for them to dominate there but innlaliga it's better for them really.

This ^^

La Liga would not be the same without Barcelona. They will not be leaving imo, it'd not be beneficial for them.

It will be great if they stay and play with the la liga but if not they can join the French league un and add some spice to it . I know every league in Europe would relish to have a team like Barcelona playing in it and since geography favors the French should they pull out of Spain I think it will be a different lige 1 and we'd all live to watch.

I think that Barcelona will never leave the spanish Liga. It's going to be a disaster for both Barcelona and la Liga. Barcelona will loose lots of money from payperview rights and sponsors, and La Liga will be boring and do not attract football fans anymore. La Liga is now the only league in europe to compete with the english Premier League, so, they can't afford loosing a team like Barcelona. Political issues should stay out of sports because it ruins the game.

The issue is not really in the hands of Barcelona at all but rather the Spanish FA, They can choose to kick Barca and Espanyol out of the league , Even the president of the Spanish FA said that but we all know that it;s not going to be possible at all, they are going to have t come to a compromise on how to deal with the whole issue.

Monaco is a separate country from France and yet they are still allowed to play in the French Ligue 1. I don't think Barcelona will be sanctioned because of this if it ever happens.

Whatever the case is, Barcelona should stay in the La Liga. without Barcelona, you can't imagine this league. Barcelona is one of the vital team in this league. if they will leave this Spanish football then both Barcelona and La Liga will lose its glamour. Barcelona and La Liga are being a complementary element for each other. so Barcelona should stay in there.

Of course they should stay. They together with Real Madrid give the rhythm to the La Liga. If Barcelona was to stay out then Real Madrid would have a very easy road to win almost always the La Liga. That would be not good for fans as the beautiful game of Barcelona would be a big miss for the La Liga. I am sure they will be staying.
