    Well, I barely seen any improvement on our defenders and they had a guy who is one of the all time greatest CB too

    Ernesto Valverde

    And who did we bring to replace Rakitic? Denis, Gomes, Paulinho, Arthur, Vidal & Frenkie were our midfield signings between 2016 and 2020 when he left. Only one who was actually better was FDJ and he replaced Rakitic into starting line up.

    Ernesto Valverde

    What is a yes man? Should EV resign and pay his own release clause to be a courage coach and not a yes man? Sacrifice his own career for the holiness of Barca? Again, we lost with 0-3 & 0-4 one season prior, we had a board that refused to embrace rebuild, we have a team that lost its 2nd best...

    Xavi Hernández

    This is actually very true. Even Pep style wasn't identical Crujif style, it was more of a pure form with Pep's ideas and finger prints on it. Crujif loved the football played by coaches like Rijkaard and Hiddink and suggested them to Laporta, same with Koeman during his Ajax day, had full...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Barcelona has lost 0-4, 0-3 away from home before him with stronger squad, lost 8-2 in neutral ground with same squad, lost 0-3 & 1-4, 0-3 at home and another 0-3 away after he left with an inferior squad (though not that much inferior for last season) and that is without going back for 5 years...

    Ernesto Valverde

    He was offered Spurs job last summer and declined. Other than that, there are very few "decent size" clubs that had vacant jobs, Chelsea, PSG had better and more exciting candidates to replace their coaching while Inter and Bayern went for the domestic young coach

    Lyon is still in financial crisis and are more or less on firesale iirc, short contract and lack of buyers along very low hype while being one of the team highest paid players.

    Nico Gonzalez

    Barca in 2006 had a starting line up in CL final that had only VV and Puyol from La Masia, in addition to Oleguer who was Barca B signing. Never mind people are really generous with describing a player being "La Masia" , Puyol, Busquets, Pedri joined on professional contracts at age of 17 and...

    AlSadd has termination clause we are refusing to pay, they owe us nothing and Xavi accepted that well paid contract on his own well. If we are unwilling to pay the clause, they have every right to act arrogantly

    Boubacar Kamara

    I watched 3 games for Lyon this season, against PSH, Nice & Monaco. Caqueret and Bruno Gumaris were the center of midfield with Aouar/Paqueta ahead of them. This leaves more leeway for Caqueret to attack at times, but Bruno is usually the one that is playing more advanced role and Max covering...

    Adeyemi is one of the players I like, definitely need to watch them more. Maxence Caqueret is currently my top priority as Busquets replacement, talked about him already in his thread, he fits in so many ways, except he prefers to play on quicker pace on ball rather than holding the ball. I...
