Josep Maria Bartomeu

[Messi983]

Usually news which has quotes in it isn't wrong. Like if sport claimes messi saying "I am happy at barca" in proper quotation marks it can't be false, so chances are that beneditto really said it.

Quotes are probably true and Benedito could also believe what he's saying to be true but there is absolutely no proof that what he said will actually happen. I don't doubt he has some connections and sources inside the club but I doubt he's close enough to Bartomeu personally or his inner circle to know what they'll do.

It could be just a wishful thinking from Benedito or he's still butthurt his vote of no confidence last summer failed. But there is no doubt that Bartomeu's position right now is much stronger than a year ago. Of course things can still fall apart in last two months of the season but as long as we win La Liga and won't be humiliated in CL socios won't call for his head. Unless there is another scandal incoming that we don't know about yet but I hope it's not as I'd like to have a relatively quiet summer for once. And I think we'll get exactly that with Arthur and Griezmann's deals all but done and not many other incoming transfers expected so we'll probably mostly concentrate on selling.

Barto, now show us how much of a businessman you really are. Everybody can throw money around and buy world-class players.

But, can you sell Gomes for at least 35 million? Show us what have you got Barto.

Bartomeu: Every year the team is prepared to win all competitions, be it with Ernesto Valverde or with another coach, we fight every season to win everything, but today it could not be".

Bartomeu: "I am sorry for all the Barça fans in the world. We have a very competitive team that wasn't seen today. But this team will rise.”

Yeah, I don't think Bartomeu is very keen on keeping Valverde right now.​

Aye that doesnt sound too supportive of EV.

Trouble is no obvious coach out there.

Poch wont come and he would be best candidate for me.

 

[Devils]

I'd take Allegri in an instant.

 

[Cule4life]

B-Dog would finally have my support if he sacked Valverde tomorrow.

 

[Barcaman]

Lucho coming back? Koeman is out of job too.

Koeman is Netherlands coach. Would you really want Koeman, though?

what happened to all those hardcore EV supporters like yourself. Why don't you post in EV's thread and defend him like you usually do?

Haha mentioned him plenty. Go read it.

Sorry, I don't want to see managers not playing Cruyff football. Tata, Lucho, and EV and we still didn't get it?!

 

[Stoichkov1]

Maybe he will finally decide to hire a top coach and not someone with that Barca DNA bullshit.

Who would you hire?

 

[Stoichkov1]

Who would you hire?

Allegri, Mourinho, Pochettino

All proven managers who did a great job at their clubs and I don't give a fuck about the style as long as we win.

Would be the same thing as with Valverde in terms of playing style. No thanks. I watched Lazio - Juve 3-4 weeks ago and Juventus had 1 shot in min 92 and scored for a 1-0 win.
