Sorry what was that cocksucker? You'll have to speak up

My initial comment was about Valverde's points-per-game stat domestically being maintained by Setien for that season.

When I then say "Setien actually did better," I think it's pretty clear that I was still speaking within the context of points-per-game domestically.

Setien did better points-wise? True, but there is more to it than that.

When you are fighting for titles you have to raise your game when its needed, mainly against your other rivals, to deny them points, and possibly halt their momentum, and EV had a great record in those games and would have done better than Setien there.

He had a better team too. A younger one. EV was done after Liverpool. He shouild have ben dismissed after that season. Only Ratomeu's incompetence kept him in charge. A good manager should have come instead, not 3d chess maestro Setien.

Instead of blaming him for the team being mentally weak in Europe, we should have been praising him for somehow making this team mentality strong domestically.

No top coach would have touched the Barca job with the players at club and no prospect of arriving to be given power to change things.
