I won't blame the coaches anymore but I said from day one Setien is a shit coach.

Everybody who knows football can easily tell all of our mistakes in buildup happened because we had no outlets for three years to stretch the pitch. THIS is the reason we get pressed so easily with a highline.

You won't find better players than Frenkie and Busquest to build up. We lack outlets and always did since Villa, Neymar 14/15, Pedro. Instead we brought more and more creative players.

Not the coaches fault we can't sign the right players. Its on the sporting department. Segura, Abidal, Roberto. These guys alongside Bartomeu destroyed the club.

Not fit to lick Valverde's boots.

:lol: Mr. optimist doing just what I said he'll do. You're a caricature of yourself.

Fucking clueless. What you see now started under Lucho, blossomed under EV, and hit full peak under this sorry manager. All under the supervision and sanctioning of the clueless of all. Bartomeu, the ruiner of Barcelona.

Busquets gives away the ball in ridiculous areas of park game after game and did it umpteen times tonight.

His legs have gone and he panics more under pressure now than ever before.

I want to address apologies to Valverde, two years later. He was smarter than most gave him credit, and not a coward. He knew he didn't have any power, and took care of himself. Most of us would do the same.

Bayern play with a ultra high line and presses hard which forces mistake in the buildup because we can't "get out". Only players who could exploit the backline were Alba and Semedo, two defenders LOL.

Who is responsible for the lack of outlets when all top teams have atleast two? The sporting department and not the coaches.

Pep would have lost the same way had he been coach with this squad 100%.

Seti?n, on his future: "I think that now everything is too close to think about whether I am going to continue or not. The reality is that this does not depend on me. We must reflect taking into account the situation and the importance of this defeat humiliating for Bar?a "

Shocking comment. How the heck do you deflect from getting destroyed 8-2 at home, in the quarter-finals of the Champions League? Especially when you're Barcelona!

We honestly should just forfeit the 2nd leg and just try to rebuild this team. Start by getting rid of the board and the manager. Then a competent board can at least try and get rid of the deadwood and start rebuilding.

Optimist going into the match. Throwing the toys out the pram after coming out battered 2-8 is justified.

Mate, I agree this cycle was virtually finished (in Europe at the very least) in 2017. I have been calling out this squad for what it is for years, long before I joined this forum. That is why I was able to appreciate the fact that Valverde was able to squeeze a few more domestic titles out of this entitled amigo lot running on fumes.

But what I have read for the longest time is that we had an incredible billion dollar squad, top 3 in the world, so many great young players with potential etc. That another manager can get this team back to the very top and for many posters it was *any* manager. Valverde is fired, the club does far worse and the narrative suddenly shifts from "Valverde was the main roadblock and the squad is good enough," to "I knew we were finished for years."

You yourself have drastically pivoted and I remember reading dozens of your posts praising the quality of our squad and how the "manager is responsible for everything." Don't make me pull up the quotes. ;)

Spot on mate. It's so obvious as well. Who the hell built this team should be fired now.
