There's a good coach, at the minute unemployed, who would cost nothing (just the pay off of Setien and his crew obvs.). We won't go for him. Why? Because he played for/managed Espanyol and said (5 years ago) that he wouldn't manage Barca. Mauricio Pochettino.

Exactly! Let's get back to the days of La Masia players majorly in the team: speedy, hungry, powerful, younger players willing to die for the shirt. We have to get back to a position where we DON'T have the largest wage bill in world football and where we mix La MAsia players with quality...
