With the current economial crisis I don't see if this is a good idea. Plus, I still don't like the design.

Engineer Said,
I think the design is spectacular, very Barcelona.
We discussed this in the chat channel earlier this season, it's drawn by an English architect.
Here's a link with lots of information about it, maybe it deserves an article all by itself? :)

Dolce Said,
The project is expected to cost 300 million and that would lower our transfer budget and increase the debts dramatically. And we are very stingy already now. But in the long run New Camp Nou would be beneficial for the club in many ways

Camp Nou looks ready to mate with Torre Agbar! http://economiaurbana.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/torre-agbar.jpg
Jokes aside, there could not be a more perfect design for the city.
