FC Barcelona: Mess Que Un Club

[Rex Stone]

Barca is a political minefield for any manager.

By all accounts the current Barca president didn't really want Xavi, as he was closely aligned with a presidential rival at one point.

He's been running around briefing the press off the record that he wanted to promote Marquez from the B team, for half the season.

De Zerbi is a decent manager but I fear he'll get chewed up and spat out at Barca.

You need someone super experienced but also the club has a lot of young players so you’d need someone dynamic and not over the hill.

Really tough hire for them so agree on De Zerbi. Likely to be Flick though which I think is a bizarre choice in all honesty.

Someone needs to go and get Gavi

Looks like Pedri and De Jong could be out for some time.

Xavi being sacked this weekend
His comments about not being able to buy who they want anymore made Laporta a bit angry.

Really?

Really?

Laporta seem not happy with Xavi behavior lately they seriously considering sacking him.

It's really amazing how they treating thier club legend they begging him to stay then few weeks later considering to sack him

 

[MauveGunner]

Really?

Yeah, read it in a credible Belgian site; Sporza. What Yusuf said is pretty much it.

I've always preferred Madrid because of R9, Roberto Carlos and Zizou and I developed a real hatred for Barca with their constant tapping Fabregas up but much like it's a shame what the Glazers have done to United, this is also a shame. Cruyff built something that was pure and had a real class about it and this man Laporta is turning them into a side show. What he did with Ronaldinho was masterful but you can't live off of that forever. They've lost their credibility and their class.

They probably had enough time to take Xavi out back & shoot him while Flick signed the contract.

Nah it’s fine they can just take a 1.3 billion loan out to pay it off.

Infinite money glitch.

 

[Thrice]

I can't believe there are clubs that haven't realised yet that Flick is a complete fraud. The perfect example of a coach being in the right place at the right time when he got carried to all those trophies by a Bayern team firing on all cylinders.

That is a lot of debt but they make a ton of money and can pay that off. Or sell a couple players at worst. They have huge natural earning potential even after Messi and the Scandal with refs.
