Luis Enrique

[Batman]

Please no Pellegrini at Barca. I'd rather take Bielsa if Klopp won't come.

Yes for Bielsa as temp manager until 2016 when we can get maybe Klopp. He is taking Olympique de Marseille to another level with attractive attacking football. He won't take any shit from Bartomeu or Zubi and will stand up to this board. Downside he might clash with lazy players like Pique.

 

[linetty]

bielsa could be a good option at least till this board is out

 

[Hamzah]

Bielsa would cause an implosion.

 

[Chainsaw]

Bielsa will be out of here sooner than this board. Anyone except his fanboys are familiar with his difficult character. Either he will walk out on his own or he will have the same fate he had at Athletic.

PS, take a look at his titles record. Winning titles is not one of his best characteristics. His playstyle is very tiresome and you will see its impact on the players at the second part of the season. He needs a whole new set of players here to fit his style.

And, speaking of "taking no shit from anyone", that's actually a problem itself. He will make enemies soon and that's the start of the chaos and eventually the end of his tenure at Barca.

You calling this a downside. Its a kick up the downside instead

The problem is midfield, you bring a team of world class managers and they won't be able to play football with our current midfield, from Xavi, Iniesta, Fabregas and Thiago to Rakitic, Rafinha, Sergi Roberto and declined Xavi, only Iniesta can create something nowadays, with transfer ban upheld I don't see any point of changing Lucho, it simply won't make a difference.

are you fucking kidding me. Xavi, Iniesta, Rakitic, Rafinha, Roberto, Busi, Masch what more do you want in a midfield. You have the best controller in a well rested Xavi who still posts 11km a game. The Don in all his glory although he might be in a slump. The best tackler and destroyer DM in Masch. A good RM prospect in Rafinha. Roberto. A great box-to-box AM in Rakitic. And a great reader of the game in Busi although his hernia is hindering him ATM. Its more than enough for at least a functioning midfield in the hands of a competent coach unlike Lucho has portrayed himself to be thus far

whaaat? mascherano, busquets, iniesta, rakitic are absolutely world class midfielders... lucho should be rocking the world with these players but he simply has got not clue how to manage them

U can say klopp isnt doing well at bundesliga, but this guy is a genious.

He is still owning Champions League, and look how he destroyed Arsenal, like they were small muppets.

He owned Bayern 2 Years , reached CL Final, destroyed Madrid , last season almost beat madrid too.

The Problem he has/had are Injuries and his players get bought off all the time. I Feel every Club looks at Dortmund first, when they buy players.

This things will not happen in Barcelona, I think hes annoyed that his players always get bought off.



He is also very funny guy, honest and always jokes around. In a Recent Barcelona poll he won by huge margin 50% ahead off Pep 17%. I think this forum likes him too right?

Bielsa is just a temp solution, and I would say a good one. He never managed a big team hence he didn't win titles but took those small teams he managed very far i.e Took Bilbao Europa League Final. With proper support from a big club like Barca I believe he can win us titles. Guardiola is a big admirer and actually went to Argentina in 2006 only to meet Bielsa for coaching and career advise.

Its not Klopp's fault that BVB's best player are poached every year but this guy still manages to get them working. He is miles ahead of Lucho in every way possible

No I am not kidding. I am talking about creativity of midfield, Xavi, Rakitic, Rafinha and Roberto don't really have skills to control the midfield and create dangerous situations.

Guardiola: "Luis Enrique will triumph at Barça. Things need time, football is a process. Just hope I don't have to face them in CL."

The king has talked

pep trying to comfort cules. nice of him but this time i don't think he's right. he'd destroy us in cl

Did I say anything about mascherano, Busi and Iniesta not being great? Again I am talking about creativity of midfileders with Iniesta injuried, neither Xavi, Rakitic nor Rafinha are creating anything they just go for save passes.
