    Ronald Koeman

    Defense was costly as usual. Attack failed to carry us this time.

    Copa 1/2 Final: FC Barcelona - Sevilla 3-2 (agg)

    All true. Would add that neither were good tbh

    Trincão

    Klopp helped them, but he didn't make them world class. Huge difference IMO. Other than Mourinho, Salah improved massively under each coach he had, with in Mokawlon, Basel (Yakin), Fiorentina (Montella) Roma (Spalletti) Same with Mane If anything, the development of both players were almost linear.

    Trincão

    The problem is that his off the ball movement in counter attacking is too bad for that tbh. The potential there is huge tbf

    Mavericky Puig

    He didn't. Edmilson, Marquez,Motta,Yaya were the ones who played in that position under Rijkaard.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Considering you are from Portugal, you actually have an argument.

    Joan Laporta

    Both are great, but it will be weird transition in Barca.

    Emerson

    Roberto is 29 in a season derailed with injuries while having 1 year left in contract. If we get decent fee from him and keep Emerson I am ok with it, I just don't see it happening.

    Premier League 2020/2021

    The term isn't about spending, but more about how it comes. Manu fans will never believe that City raised that money organically. While for them, they grew massively and step by step under SAF

    Ronald Koeman

    Nah, they needed immediate wage relief and the easiest players to push out are the ones with short contracts, as they are the ones who will seek longer deals elsewhere rather than being benched in last year in contract.

    Luis Suárez

    We can discuss how we would be better or worse with Suarez till end of the year, but at the end the decision wasn't really about the team but more about finances. He was on big wages, we needed to cut it from any other player not named Messi (as Bartou wanted him to stay). Vidal, Rakitic were...

    Emerson

    This. Unless we find a way to sell S.Roberto, Emerson will most likely be sold to raise funds for another position.

    FC Barcelona B (Barça Atlètic)

    About that, I think of him as very good developmental coach which is the perfect coach for Barca B tbh, as it is a developmental team that its only purpose is developing players for 1st team. Not get fans excited, not getting results, just developing players. His results could be argued to be...

    Ernesto Valverde

    Hmmm, what you said in first paragraph still doesn't explain how he is responsible for 3rd humiliations, like at all

    Phil Foden

    The term academy product is really flawed anyway and there is no consistent rule for it. Busquets/Puyol/Pedro has arrived at the age of 17, and we consider them Barca product, while considering Cesc,Alba & Eric Garcia as La Masia product too for whatever reason, despite leaving in younger age...

    Ernesto Valverde

    This. I even disliked it when they renewed him in Jan 2019, and said he was better off as 2 years stop gap before getting ourselves someone new for more youth movement

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Players like him won't be able to stay in rhythm that way, but he should be more rested than ever

    Premier League 2020/2021

    No fans tbf, they had one of the best supporters in EPL

    Samuel Umtiti

    He got his legacy as world cup winner, his money and stayed long enough for great club & city Good for him tbh, only problem that Barca is the one paid for it.
