How is he moving the goal post? Did i miss something? Lol.
Not even decent and winning a league title definitely doesn't go in the same sentence.
Imagine thinking Roberto Di Matteo winning the CL is more difficult that winning a league title.
SMH.
The things you hear on your for people to push their narratives
This is akin to winning the league was a fluke.

It is tremendously difficult to win CL, but that Chelsea team had 5-6 incredible players tbh. It's not like he took over some bums and he won CL with them.
No one even dares to argue Xavi was a good coach anymore. That’s the definition of moving the goal post.How is he moving the goal post? Did i miss something? Lol.

All we’re seeing these days is “he won the league”. Indeed he did.
Xavi won a league title but lost most other battles.Because that's how coaches are ultimately judged no? by winning.
That and leaving the club is a better place that you found it.
Both of which he did.
Or in your opinion its by losing pretty? Genuine question.
Figured what?

Barcelona isn’t City, where Pep takes all the credit and blame, there’s a very involved sporting department that shares responsibility for decisions. Xavi wasn’t ready mentally, tactically, or in terms of experience.
Winning one title doesn’t automatically make him a great coach or the best solution. He wasn’t a disaster, but evaluating him requires looking beyond just those two criteria. And even within those, there are levels.
Pretty has nothing to do with it. Enrique described his team well.
Lol......infantile.Imagine thinking Roberto Di Matteo winning the CL is more difficult that winning a league title.

There is a reason UCL is considered a tougher and a more prestigious competition not only in Europe but in the world too. it's less about the number of matches but qualitiy of opposition. You can play 18 other bum teams in your national league, you cant escape quality opposition along your path to the UCL year after yesr
There can only be 1 champions league winner in Europe every season(conqueror of all champions), there can be be many national league winners.
Di Matteos historic champions league winner is far regarded more highly than Xavis league winner except your are permanently deluded and myopic.
What many of you fail to realise is that the team itself was still young and unexperienced. You guys always seem to believe that it was all his fault, but what you don't realise is that the team was genuinely unexperienced in Europe and there was nothing else to do, Out of the main 11 that played in the 2022-23 Lliga winning team, only 5 of them played more than 10 UCL games coming in to that season. It's simply unrealistic to expect much in Europe with such a young and relatively unexperienced squad.Figured what?

Laughable......indeed, if it was less difficult, the likes of Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Real,Juve,Inter,Liverpool, etc, would have more CLs than the number of the national leagues they have won since 1955.It's more prestigious
Not more difficult
Two different things.
Its a K.O competition dude, the best team doesn't always win.
why am i wasting my time with this guy.
But then again, you do think finishing top 10 in the Ballon D'or matters more than winning the Euros so it follows.
