Now I get what I hate about him. So we've had bad managers before, tactics couldn't be drilled down into players, personality crashes. We also have seen specific managerial fails: famous errors like Guardiola vs Hercules or Fabregas false 9, these also happen.
The above don't make you hate a manager just se ehim as unfit for a team/league with Valverde it's none of these things, he is just a very average manager and with a team like Barcelona that is unacceptable.
He's not a bad tacticians per se nor is he a bad man manager, no one current or former has complained, he's just average. At everything. So uninspiring.

Please Andrew just do everybody a favor and stick a fork in an electrical socket.

Do you not see that it's an absurd way for someone to kill themselves? If DonAndres had said Valverde should cut his wrists it might come off as too much. But through the way of dying being so stupid it's clearly not to be taken seriously.

He’s absolutely clueless. He probably can’t wait for Messi to return to help win the games. Any top manager would have won this game with the players available today.

He's not average this season. He's just plain bad.

The worst thing about all this is we haven't even played all the hardest teams yet. We're going to struggle like hell against Inter and Dortmund away.

Messi will be back and will save Ernie's bacon like he did these last seasons.

Honestly though, we really need a manager who can clear out the squad and start working on a system on the training ground. Build the team around the midfield again.

Dortmund just lost to Union Berlin, they should fear us more than the other way round, once Messi is back we will be much stronger. But we should be 5 pints behind after today so we can't afford many more slip ups.

We will be much stronger and probably win the league or get really close to because Leo Messi, but in the process we'll misuse all the players we've signed and get humiliated in April.

If we don't win the league this season after Atletico lost their best midfielder, their best striker, and their best defender, all in 1 window, and Madrid are in the mess they're in, that would be a massive massive failure of the highest order.

I can accept being eliminated in CL semis again, because City and Liverpool are playing out of their minds, but we need to win La Liga with this squad. Would be inexcusable not to.

God, I hate how we rely on Fullbacks to do the job the Midfield is supposed to do.

I'm so sick of seeing this shit, we took what was one of our best attributes during the Pep era and turned it into a walking joke. It has hardly any responsibilities other than just being water carriers to give to Messi or the fucking Fullbacks.

Seeing FDJ play like a winger today is truly baffling. Arthur came on and salvaged that shitshow of a Midfield today.
