La Liga salary cap states that a club’s wage bill to revenue ratio must be 70% - Barca estimate the pandemic caused their revenue to drop by €203m. Therefore they needed a significant wage drop to comply with the salary cap.
•Pre-pandemic - Barca’s salary cap was at €671m
•Post-pandemic because of COVID impacting their revenues - this salary cap has reduced to €300-400m
This type of huge wage reduction is tough to pull off so quickly, so I do have some sympathy from that perspective.

Thread - important things for everyone to know if you are present at a cardiac arrest scenario, using the Christian Eriksen incident as a reference.
I shall also refer to my personal experience & evidence.
1. Firstly, kudos to Anthony Taylor - he effectively played one of the roles of a nurse (in a hospital setting) in that environment by quickly recognising that Eriksen's condition had deteriorated and calling for medical help immediately. Recognising danger is key.
