@Don_Pedro_Dinero, Yes, I agree with you. Barcelona management is basically gambling with money and with the future of the club. I mean even a dumb person could understand that there is no way a club should make 150 million transfers when they are in 1.5 billion dollar debt.

It is my psychology that when I have debt, I want to repay it and not borrow more money. I just hope that Barcelona will be able to perform well and generate enough money. And obviously, for that, they will have to win. But I highly doubt that they will be able to beat Real Madrid in La Liga and also will be able to win the Champions League.

Well, there are times when it makes sense to go into debt. Most people take out a mortgage to buy a house. Many companies use debt to finance investments as well, but the more indebted ones tend to have more problems.

It is one thing to go into debt for a relatively short period of time, for a small percentage of your income, and another to make a desperate gamble in order to save the disastrous situation you are in, mortgaging your future excessively.

Real Madrid have the advantage in the line-up that hasn't changed much. With that, of course, Real Madrid doesn't have to bother making adjustments. because they are used to the existing line-up.
different from Barcelona. despite having a lot of good players. but still with a new line-up. then it will need adjustment as well. so that maximum performance will not appear immediately. because it takes time to adjust the line-up. and the players also need to get used to the new arrangement.

I agree, although Barcelona don't have much time to adjust the line-up. Real Madrid are much calmer in this respect.
