Stunned?
Xavi is just bitter. Why stunned? 😆
Probably promised to get the coaching job again if Font wins.

I fear If Victor Font Et al wins it will be a repeate of Guardiola and Rosell again. A new president comes in and directly wants to remodel the club in his own ideal, forgetting about the sporting structure and that is how we lost Guardiola. Victor Font wants to kick out Deco and replace him with his own guy, just like Rosell who replaced Beguiristain with Zubizarreta and we went from signing solid players like Etoo amd Ronaldinho to signing Ibrahim Afellay and Kiko Femenia. Once Flick understand he will never get the players he want because Font is just another clueless clown, well Flick will leave in a heartbeat.
I don't reallt like Laporta as a person but I find Font even less likeable and I fear he will ruin whatever little good Laporta has achieved in the last 5 years. Laporta has only really made one solid decision in those five years and that was to replace Xavi with Flick, this was the third time he made a solid decision regarding the manager of the club, the first time was to not fire Frank Rijkaard when the entire board was against him in december of 2003, the second time was to hire Guardiola over Mourinho in the spring of 2008, both of those decisions were really not his, instead he just asked Johan Cruyff what to do and did just that. It worked out fine.
The one thing i particular I fear about Font is the one thing in particular i like about Laporta. The one thing Laporta does really well is that his decisions regarding managers and key staff like director of football are not as a result of surounding himself with yes men, Floretino Perez does that all the time. I'm really afraid Victor Font is precisely that kind of guy. As and example, Batomeu was up to his tits with yes men and his decisions were disastrous as a result.
Laporta is often criticised for hireing family and friend including his girlfriend, but those people never end up in positions where they can fuck up the club and he generally rely on competent people for strategic bussiness deals, most of which have been pretty solid save for the Congo fiasco.

That is not what lost Guardiola.
He has said enough times why he left.
Not that Font will win but it is normal that a new President takes in a new Director of Football.
Cruyff did not choose Pep either. It was part of a process where Barca interviewed Pep and Mourinho with specific points from both.
Cruyff would have supported Guardiola but Cruyff wanted a lot of things that didnt happen also.

Guardiola will never admit openly that he left because of Rosell, but he had issues with the new board even during pre season right after the election in 2010. Anyway you can believe what you want. The fact that the club had to improvise and hire his assistant behind his back tells you everything you need to know. Guardiola froze out his best friend and ignored him even as he was dying because he chose to stay at Barcelona rather than leaving. Guardiola held deep resentment towards Rosell and Tito Vilanova paid the price when he accepted the position as head coach. Guardiola will never admit to this but the we all know what went down When Tito Vilanova was dying. There was a very revealing interview with Jordi Roura where he threw Guardiola under the bus when asked aout the whole situation.

Guardiola outrtight denies it and gets pissed off when folk suggest it and yes he most likely would say it if was the case.
I know folk who have been in Guardiolas company and he has spoken about Barcelona etc... believe that if you like.
More lies.. Guardiola did not choose to 'freeze' out Tito because he stayed at Barcelona. What an utterly disgusting lie.
All these clueless lies followed up by 'Guardiola will never admit to it'.
Nothing was done behind Peps back on Tito.. stop spouting absolute shite thinking you have a clue.

As I said, Guardiola will never admit to it but I rather believe Jordi Roura who was threre and threw Guardiola under the bus when asked about it. Unlike Guardiola who let his best friend down and hid in Manhattan even as Tito went there for treatment as has been confirmed by multiple people and written about extensively. (talk about a coward as Zlatan would say)
As I said, you can believe what you want but Jodi Roura was the closest person Tito had and knew exactly what went down. Guardiola was and still is a 10 / 10 as a football manager, but his human qualities has been questioned now by a number of people, not just Zaltan Ibrahimovic and Jordi Roura.

Nothing in that link proves your theory correct and it is pathetic lie to make out Pep ignored his dying friend due to that.
Pep spoke about recommending Tito.. let me guess more Pep lies for 'reasons'.
Tito the 'liar' also.. quite clearly states he talked to Pep before taking the job and Pep encouraged him.
Your theory about Pep not speaking to Tito as 'took job behind his back' is utter nonsense as made clear by all involved.

All I have written is backed up by mutiple independent sources. Do you really believe every journalist in Spain that has written about the realationship between Pep and Tito are lying?
Several independent journalist working both as independent and for spanish sports media have stated that the rupture in their relationship happende exactly and precisely when Titio decided to split to become head coach of FC Barcelona. Rosell went straight to Tito and asked him without asking Guardiola, this enraged him and despite Rosell stating Guardiola recomended Tito the decision had already been taken before Guardiola had anything to say about it. That Tito accepted the role of head coach for FC Barcelona before even telling him was the moment of rupture and Guardiola considered Titos act as treason, this has been stated by multiple journalists in multiple media outlets. Do I really have to link to every article. Rivers of ink has been written about the realtionship between Guardiola and Tito Vilanova.
Titos relationship with Guardiola was so bad that his widow told Guardiola to stay away from his funeral. I'm sure Peps friend forgot to tell you about Titos wife telling Pep he was a fucking coward in broad daylight i Central Park while Tito was dying.

Also the BS that Guardiola had a good relationship with Rosell and Bartomeu is ROFL.

Llamó al entrenador para decirle que no querÃa que fuese. Aunque él ya estaba en el aeropuerto de El Prat, decidió no ir.

No they dont.
You clean made up that Pep was angry club and Tito went behind back to make him coach.
Pep and Tito both said they spoke about it prior to taking job and Pep advised club and Tito to do it.
Pure lies and then backed up with more lies about Pep ignoring Tito due to that.
Who said Pep had 'good relationship'?
More lies.

So then you claim all newspapers lied then? Since they all write that Guardiola was told of Titos promotion to head coach after he had accepted. Guardiola himself said in postmach interview that he had no idea about who was going to replace him until Tito was anounced as his replacement, even Tito had not told him.

You claim Tito lied when said spoke with Pep about it?
You claim Pep lied when praised the decision to put Tito in the job?
You think Pep is such a scum bag he refuses to see much of his seriously ill friend due to taking the Barca job? Then when does has an argument with him?
You think all this despite nothing ever being said by anyone to even hint at it being true.
Of course Guardiola would say he had 'no idea'.. you think Guardiola is as dumb as to be the one who announces it and not the club? May well have not have known or Tito decided to accept by then anyway.
Not a clue.
Tito announced as Barca coach was at Peps press conference announcing he will leave.. more lies to claim Pep did not know before then.
