2003-2004:
The season
was presented with the urgent need for a title in football, as five years
without get too serious for a club like FC Barcelona. With the arrival of new
President Mr Laporta, Barça regained the illusion and hope to achieve these
long-awaited titles. The economy was not so bad, and the signings seemed more
successful than in previous seasons. The incorporation of the Brazilian player
Ronaldinho, was a symptom of good omens, since this is the crack that the fans
wanted more, according to the survey on this site before arrival. As a coach,
Rijkaard was signed, in which the new policy had placed all his hopes.

2004-2005:
Finally, and
after six years, Barca Football League win again two days before the end. And
it does so in a big way, as true heroes, and that several of his players were
injured seriously at the start of the Championship and had to play with such a
depleted workforce that were parties where a lack of staff had to incorporate
players from Barça B to complete the eleven.
Throughout
the Championship, the Blaugrana have been much higher than other teams, even
though some have wanted to devalue and detract Title inventing alleged aid
arbitration. The club has won the league not only honest, but it has succeeded
like no one has cast over the story: With an average of only 14 players.
Besides team was the top scorer, the fewest (Trofeo Zamora), and has broken the
record for points in the league.

running of the Blaugrana in a return match with very bad luck and refereeing

The season
began with many innovations in terms of staff turnover. Mr. Laporta became the
most important figure of this new club. The Barcelona Chair very strong bet to
form one of the best teams in recent years. By signing Ronaldinho last season,
Larsson, Belletti, Edmilson, Sylvinho, Deco, Giuly and Samuel Eto'o from Cameroon
Real Madrid were incorporated and which ultimately was one of the most crucial
players for the title. Another important development was the launch of
legendary players like Cocu, Luis Enrique, Kluivert and Reiziguer.
It was not
all good, a few days to finish the championship and when they had to be made
happy by Title I jump the pump, Mr. Vice President Rosell and four directors
had resigned due to disagreements with Mr. Laporta
2005-2006:
As always
Barcelona is presented with the utmost enthusiasm and logical claims of a club
that aspires to the fullest. After the completion of the last league
championship, the Blaugrana faced this season and quieter with less pressure
than at other times. Van Bommel and Ezquerro are the only additions to the staff
of the Technical Rijkaard. The season starts very well, excellent Preseason in
various places, achieving the first official title adds: The Supercup Spain.
Ronaldinho received the Golden Ball as the best player of the World tda. 04/05.

2006-2007:
To address
this long hard season, the club was reinforced with three players: Gudjohnsen,
Thuram and Zambrotta. Caused low Gabri, Larsson, Maxi Lopez and Damia.
The season
started well, after an excellent-season, the first title is achieved: the S.Copa

the season was not as expected, the 7 possible titles, only the SC were
obtained of Spain and Catalunya Cup, League they finished second.
2007-2008:
Like every
season, the maximum interest begins with chapter transfer. After the
disappointment of the previous season, the Club spares no effort and is done
with the services of striker Henry, and Toure, Abidal and Milito four signings
the fans frowned upon defenses. The preseason promised six games and six wins,
with thirteen goals for and one against far. In the end everything was left in
the pan. The signings were not expected, and the game was grim. Worst was the
lack of ambition and unwillingness on the template, where above all emphasized
the Ronaldinho Brazilian who between binges, and simulated lesions, the season
pass blank, it was certainly one of the main culprits of bad environment who
lived around the blaugrana environment and ultimately contributed to this
failure. Only in the European Cup the club put some effort, but after reaching
the semifinals losing to Manchester (0-0-1-0).
Most notable
was: The Fair Play Trophy, and the Election of Messi as the 2nd best player in
the World 2006/07.
