You're welcome
People want him to stay, he doesn't. We didn't sack him lol. :lol:
Ok saw a few posts on last few pages here and there seemingly indiciating otherwise. Was wondering who those would be excited about bringing in. Don’t think candidate list is reason for excitement. Rafa Marquez also risk

After the tie was already over since they smashed us on Camp Nou 4-1.
It was over but we had 5 huge chances and a penalty. So a remontada was possible.

4-1 by Mbappe after 8-2 by Davies and Muller (nobody in football) was actually decent?
Can't fire Suarez, Pique, Alba, Busquets, Roberto, Umtiti, Lenglet, Dest (new deluded addition), Griezman in one go? That would be 500 millions worth of players to fill.
Then you have the millions of fans who only blamed Setien for a 8-2 and thought Busquets and Pique are world class.
Changes needed time and he changed a bit the defense using 2 new players and a 5 line.

Most have changed their minds. And want him to stay.
Except for the jabronis in this forum.

Which i am not surprised by. They are fatherless thots.
Most Barcelona platforms are clap-trap low IQ mediums that endorsed every move by Bartomeu. I got banned for saying Suarez is fat in 2016 or FCB will be demolished by Liverpool or Bayern. So of course they changed their mind. You should name the clowns because I want to laugh.

There is something serious wrong about the club imo. We have unique advantages in this club over others, like humongous stadium, great city, history, legends of the game playing for us like no other club, and few others too.

But the way the club is handled is not very good, despite these rare advantages. The main reason I'm not opposed to selling the club. The ability of the club, using the current model, to sustain itself past a couple of years is not there for me.

Even if we somehow get back on top of Europe against all odds, it will last only a few years and then another moron, elected by the club itself, will destroy it all.

I don't think Xavi changed so much. He played Cancelo over Fort, played Roberto, played a high line like in El Clasico debacle,, introduced slow players in key positions like Christensen vs space merchants (it worked but not everyday is Christmas), kept Lewa and changed Raphinha.
For me is enough to not buy the change wave.
His problems are:
- poor transfers, poor player selection (no clutch or gifted people)
- the delusion that midfielders made Barca great
- prefers bums especially from La Masia vs youngsters when not forced to use youngsters. Cubarsi as Yamal are lucky with the hype wave, Fort had no hype so nobody heard of him after his PERFECT games on the left.
Lewandowski was atrocious, Guiu and Vitor had little chances.

What I like about Xavi is that he has a balanced style so is not EV, Enrique, Setien, Tata Martino and others.
If you give him the first eleven or a good team he will probably trash 95% of the top current managers including the germans.
But like I said, reaching that 11 is his problem.
Also having no staff and being always furious on something is not really feasible.

, elected by the club itself, will destroy it all.
Remember, states don't like secesionism or iredentism, they are amoral or imoral organizations that want to kill their rivals.

FCB being a beacon in Catalunia atracts double agents or catalan idiots because of the siege in media culture against their identity.
Nobody will sell Barcelona, Barcelona is a club. I don't know if you are new to this but there were always waves. Given Bartomeu was probably the most stupid or ill intentioned.
Also we are an old club, biggest in Spain from the interbelic period, but only from 86 we had the right and from 1991 the market to be the greatest so we actually have little experience.
2009-2016 was our only experience being the greatest by a huge margin so we need a new Cruyff to draw conclusions and new guidelines to keep being greatest while using our system.

We discovered Pep and chased him away. So even if we discover the next genius and promote him from our own club, we are too stupid to hold on to that guy for long.

Some idiotic politicians will again collude and drive him away because of their own dumb ego. The model is just not good. In football, the most important elements are the sporting directors, the manager and the players. They are the ones that make it happen, while the board should focus on getting the money needed to implement their vision. Not much else.

Some dudes in a suit that thinking they are the ones pulling all the strings is the most typical Barca dumb-fuckery. That's what has been plaguing the club for decades. The smartest thing a Barca president can do is pick the right men, and step aside. Focus on making money so they have the resources to work with and compete for the top. That fucked up Bartomeu did transfers, imagine that. :lol: He actually convinced himself he is is qualified at making football-related decisions. He probably looked in the mirror and talked to himself about being Barca's Florentino Perez.
