lesson to all pep cult followers....

golden boy just threw league away v newcastle....

stubborn, tactically naive manager. won't adapt & he is a nothing without peak messi/xavi/iniesta.

pragmatist like valverde are much more suited to modern football.

Valverde is more suited based on what?
 
Valverde is more suited based on what?

-not playing naive in CL away and getting thrashed everytime (roma was dembele fault for missing empty net)....
-not going all out attack with one goal lead, leaving gaps and dropping points.....
-using warriors like paulinho/vidal to give balance instead of playing two CAMs in midfield like pep.......
-adapting to each opponent......
-etc etc......
 
:lol: :lol: :lol:

Enjoy your last days here on Barcaforum , because Im pretty sure you will get banned.

banned 4 what??

-am i wrong messi, suarez, pique, umtiti etc (all key players) play like drunkards in the 2nd leg v roma?..... EV got defensive tactic right imo. players let him down.....
-am i wrong if dembele scored on empty net we would advance to the semi finals?.......

Man just said that Dembele is at guilt for last year's CL exit, Xavi was a CAM and that Valverde is adaptive.

don't put words in my mouth.

pep is playing two CAMs at city with david silva and kdb

he lost the plot in 2012 & has never recovered.

he is living off his status at barca playing with goat level player all over the pitch.

-at bayern never made final of CL , only won weak bl........
-city spent 1 bil+ and have only 1 league title to show.......

Pep never played 2 cams here. I have no idea what Pep's current setup has to do with Barca. As I said my criticism of Valverde has nothing to do with Pep.

Again, you can look from the other side and say that conservative approach is more suited for modern football... What did the self-acclaimed GOAT of conservative football Jose Moaninho do since 2012?

ok, lets say barto grants u wish & valverde is gone..........

who will you replace with??

naive 60 years old quiqe setien, or xavi with no experience?

valverde is not a perfect coach, but in the current market he is better than all other options imo.......

I would simply replace him with someone who can see things like: Busquets and Rakitić can't play together anymore for example. Or that Arthur is an absolute necessity for our midfield. Or that a midfield of Busi-Raki-Vidal has a speed and creativity of a turtle.

Someone who is not just a yes-man. Someone who can implement their system, not just copy Lucho's last season.

and how do you know which coaches will bench old guard players??

all coaches look like genius at small club where they have full authority, no pressure and can try crazy tactics even if it drops points.....

at barca legend players ex: busi,raki,alba,pique,suarez,messi have much more status and power than the coach and must play due to board pressure, marketing reason and high wages.

also new players are shiny toys and overrated too much, while old players get abuse even if we win league every year.

pressure to win at barca is a immense one. any coach except maybe 2-3 in the world will come here play a standard 4-3-3 with all legend players. no matter what they did at previous clubs, barca is at different level and they cannot afford to do revolutions. by that time they will be sacked already. we played 4-3-3 for years, give valverde a credit for going with a pragmatic 4-4-2 when we had no wingers and only lost 1 match.

do you think a sarri or a tuchel would come here and do some big miracle? no, they would play 4-3-3 with mostly same players valverde is using and the matches will still be boring.

valverde is best man for the job at the moment imo.......

I'm so amazed how someone can't see some things that all of the others can see... Incredible.

P.S. Congrats on the new stupidest statement I have ever seen here. Move over Jair Ventura and Mbappe's equaled Bolt speed. Now #EnjoyyourlifeAndBlameDembeleForRoma.

Incredible.
