13. How do you justify the continued employment of Eusebio?
14. Do you think the Qatar Airways sponsorship deal was the best deal Barca could have gotten? Did you look at competing proposals?
15. How do you respond to the allegation that your claims regarding Barca's impeding bankruptcy during and after the presidential elections of 2010 were exaggerated at best?

17. Were there any irregularities in the various contracts that bought Neymar to Barcelona?
