Ask the question again in a few years when Laporta is long gone and everyone will be begging for him to come back.
There is no other club in history that has underachieved as much as Barca. Prime R9, Prime Maradona, Prime Romario, Prime Figo. And guess what? Our wonderful presidents managed to lose or sell all of them. Add Cruyff, Rivaldo, Stoichkov, Dinho and numerous others that could be up there amongst the best to ever play the game in their positions and how many European Cups did we win with them ???
Our presidents have been so wonderful in the past that it requires Barca to have the best team in history, with the best manager in history, along with the best footballer in history, in his prime, in order to make an imprint on European football.

When Laporta left we got to enjoy the 4-0 at Anfield, the 4-0 in Paris, 3-0 against Roma and the 8-2 Vs Bayern. Humiliations that immediately ceased to occur when Laporta's returned.
If history is anything to go by, Barca's next president will be a buffoon who serves up a team that has no authority or respect in European football, barely wins La Liga and expects fans to be satisfied by beating Real Madrid once a season. Maybe twice, if we are lucky.
I don't want to see that, but I will definitely be here to remind everyone how good things used to be.
