God I almost got a heart attack when I saw this thread among the new forum posts. But I am expecting this sooner than later, Bartomeu is just waiting for one or two big wins to announce it, I bet you Valverde's gonna stay alongside this Board until the very bitter end.

There you go a free rehearsal for CL

amazing if true. Can't be any worse then Valverde so might as well give it to him.

Always love to see ex player in coach role no matter wich club. I just hope it won't be complete desaster if Xavi takes over. Valverde's philosophy is clearly not working and this isn't Barça.

[Cat Radio��] | Barça have informed Valverde that they will contact his representative to discuss the conditions of his dismissal.
Ernesto Valverde has packed his belongings in the Ciutat Esportiva.Tomorrow he'll say goodbye to the players and the ones who have assisted him.For now, Mauricio Pochettino,Quique Setien,Garcia Pimienta are seen as the likeliest candidates for the soon-to-be-vacant spot.

Players are with EV (mostly Leo).
It's January and Barca is first in LaLiga and won well his CL group.
Then, Barca is not in crisis.

I agree that EV era is over, but not before June.
I don't see great solutions now.

Setién is the new Barça coach. The club like his Cruyffian management style. He will sign for six months.???

Xavi and Puyol for me.
