    Let's talk about Xavi's replacement (2024)

    Another thing I don’t get is why we’re making promises to guys like Deco. Besides his short stint as an agent, he’s got no experience. Seems to be a trend with Laporta’s picks and hires.

    Let's talk about Xavi's replacement (2024)

    Doubt Flick hired Zahavi to help him negotiate a Bayern return. He wants to know his options and I imagine there will be plenty including us. As for Flick, think he’s a solution that could work well in vacuum. But with Barca, there never is any. More concerned about Deco, his vision, and the...

    Frenkie de Jong

    De Jong’s contract isn’t up until July 2026 but the club needs to sort it out while they still have leverage. If he stays without extending then it’s all lost. Birdy’s proposition might seem radical but it might be our only choice. Btw. sincerely doubt anyone agrees to match his current salary...

    Xavi Hernández

    I see plenty of people still arguing in Xavi's favor. I'm trying my best but can't see why. I can understand some think there are no real alternatives worth going for atm but the WC might change that too. For me, it's not whether should Barca sack Xavi, it's when. I still think Tuchel would be...

    Xavi Hernández

    People are coming up with all sorts of solutions to save a coach who hasn't given us anything. Should be lucky to be an assistant, has no business being the coach anyway. Kick him out and bring Tuchel in. I don't believe Flick is realistic.

    Trusting Xavi means losing time and slowing the rebuild down. As simple as that for me.

    Xavi Hernández

    This is a fair and sensible post tbh and I agree with the narrative. But don't you think is up to the coach? Dembele is an outstanding player but hardly known for consistency. He's been with the team for some time, he's not new. Psychological, physical, and technical form of the team are all...

    Xavi Hernández

    So what are they? Already been said in this thread but Xavi did come in with a different approach. Wanted his wingers wide, and his FBs tucked in. Gave us some patterns and together with Auba produces some results. Then it stopped as he was countered. Has he adapted? No, he has not. Serghei...

    Xavi Hernández

    You're clinging to a few examples of coaches who turned things around while there's a bunch of poor starters who didn't: the rest of them. So while it is possible that he's a new Cruyff in the making, the chances are not great. Besides, there are signs. Some coaches struggle but show good ideas...

    You're clinging to a few examples of coaches who turned things around while there's a bunch of poor starters who didn't: the rest. Besides, there are signs. Some coaches struggle but show good ideas that might lead somewhere. Xavi has none of that going for him.

    Another game he lost. Couldn't adapt to the changes made in the 2nd half and ultimately lost the match. Not saying he should've won, but even in Munich his flaws showed.
