It's pretty obvious we need to change half of the team (if not more) while also get an improvement at a coaching position. Neither will be easy but with limited resources improving the squad will be tougher/take more time so we should find someone who will get the most out of existing players while we'll hopefully inject more (and better) talent to the club in coming years.
Yea, we're at a point where the best two scenarios are already impossible due to the long-lasting repercussions from the disaster generated by Bartomeu & Co.
We had a window of 1-2 years where we could have made better decisions and today things would be much different. But we blew that chance, got ourselves even deeper in the mud, and from now on the way back will be tough, filled with a lot of problems along the way. So we simply can't have a manager that uses the bad things in the team as a constant excuse for his limited abilities. We need someone fresh thinking, ambitious, with a vision and a talent for spotting and developing talent.
The good part is that all big clubs go through this reconstruction phase, and most reconstructions take time. Let's hope it doesn't last a decade like in the case of some famous clubs: Liverpool, United, Milan etc.
Take Bayern. The period from 2002 or so, to 2010 is a disaster. They even failed to qualify for CL at times.
