He's a good manager and did a great job with Valencia when they placed 3rd behind Madrid and Barca at the time. League title? who would win a League title with these teams... Almería, Valencia, Spartak Moscow, Sevilla?
Yeah, he should not be in the conversation when it comes to RB in Barca. He rejected the offer to stay at La Masia before and said many times he wouldn't pick up his phone if Barca offers to buy him.
He's still 21. I think he needs to stay on loan and get more experience and develop. If Paco fails big time next season and Munir improves, we can just bring back Munir.
He's not supposed to play the Copa del Rey final anyway. Remember he's suspended for getting 2 yellows (red card) against Atletico on our last copa semi-final game.
Because Barcelona always base it on seniority. If only they based it on leadership, Masch would be the captain after Xavi but they gave it to the quiet Iniesta.
Atletico is just so bad. Can't believe they are in semi-final. They don't deserve to be in that position. It's like they are not allowed to attack on the right flank or middle, such a terrible team. Just staying on the left flank and not doing anything.
Easy answer. I'd rather them lose UCL and win La Liga. If they win, it will be their 1st Liga after so many years and it won't be a big deal. Them winning their back-to-back UCL will be such a big deal specially that it will be their 12th trophy.
I just hope that we can get back to being consistent again for the remaining games and finish the season with a winning streak. We can't slip again. I am confident that Madrid will slip a game or two. They'll have a busy schedule due to UCL semi-finals.
