saved us today. with cavani. change his name back. put some respeck on his name.

it means we should give him massive credit though. not saying youre not. thank you lucho. i had given up, as had mostly all of us here.

at the end of the season yes. but in the middle of a season we're struggling? i dont know if this was the right choice for him to announce this today.

Holy shit. Is he for real? Is this good? This only means we dont have a replacement for him right now. Also how is going to affect the teams motivation and his own motivation to manage the team? People are just going to blame every loss on his lack of care because 'hes leaving at the end of the...

Everyone has lucky wins, doesnt mean he didnt get it right today. Remember that Atletico is a very hard opponent, we used to suffer so hard against them before Lucho. If nothing else, he knows how to beat Atletico, something which our previous managers failed at.

Exactly, we've been doing this 'build from the back' for almost 8 years now, and people are saying they dont like it now? We need to learn to appreciate our players who are here, other teams would kill to have Mats as they wont have to worry about the keeper position for the next 10 years or so.

He's obviously not worth that much, but if you look at how the market is nowadays players are going for amounts almost three times what they are worth.

To be fair, Barto has an indentity to consider. If Barca made as many transfers as Real, people would be on his back. Every player in Real's lineup has been brought from another club, while Barca still has many home-grown talent. That is simply the price we pay. Perez can flood his midfield with...

which one is he? :neymar:

Your logic is astounding. You're not taking into account other factors such as player age, importance to the team, and where Liverpool is right now. If they qualify for CL, then I see Coutinho being around 100m. In addition to the fact that he just signed a new contract and Klopp is their...

I still think Sampaoli isnt the right option. Not to say he isnt a great manager though. I do want a change in system though and he would provide that. Keep our players we have now. We have one of the most competitive squads in world football, however we do need a change in system which could...

He is saying everything we want to hear. I doubt he'll do much different if he was re-elected. This is how politicians work.

Lucho's record vs Atletico has been pretty amazing to be honest. I agree with everything you've said though.

I disagree that Messi disappears in big games, hes been amazing in some big games lately. But what I'm starting to realise is that if the opposition in on the front-foot during the game, then it is always the case that Messi is shut out of the game. He rarely plays good when we play bad.

I think you are overrating both Samper and Grimaldo here, they are good players but they lack top flight experience and when we play so many important games they could come back and bite us. We didnt buy a proper RB because we wanted to give Roberto a chance at RB, a position which he had...

Does he fit our style? He's a break from the norm, much like Tata aswell. However, on the other hand, he is quite good tactically it seems. Also, I think he would be a good option for about the same time as Lucho before his personality and identity of football starts to collide with the clubs.

We dont need to sell Gomes or Umtiti, they've been here for half a year and you already want to ship them out? Gomes has soon potential and Umtiti had his worst game for us yesterday, he's still good enough. We've already spent plenty of money, we dont need to spend more, too many players would...

Messi lost the ball as the last man in midfield, even if Verratti took 100 touches, our players were caught off-guard and had trouble covering due to that mistake. Are you really arguing that that goal was not Messi's fault? I dont actually understand your point.

He lost the ball in a key position, placed us on the back foot and didnt bother chasing back to rectify his mistake, that is on him.

However, Messi does carry blame for the mistake he made yesterday. Saying its nothing new and that it'll keep happening says that Messi doesnt see his mistakes and isnt willing to improve something which is harming the team. I've always thought he was quite good at defending and tracking back...
