Havent logged here in a while, Hope everyone is doing fine!
I wanted to share well my 2 cents and frustrations,
Was never happy to know we got him as coach to be honest,
Nothing personal towards him and in fact how can any Barca fan not have positive emotions towards lucho who gave us many great memories and was a huge part of the club as a player.
BUT... this should never get you a free voucher to be the HEAD COACH... he's still an amateur coach, why on earth do we think we can afford to help anyone's learning experience on the account of the the first team, yes first FC Barcelona team..
When was the last time you saw some small time coach become Madrids manager ?
Yes i'm not shallow, big names are not everything...
but no proven coach and/or no big achievement = no big chance to do well (Not math, we have seen heroic stories of a certain Manager here or there do the impossible with a big team when he was still starting his coaching career, BUT the odds are not in our favor, i cant see enough reason to gamble.
And even if the Manager is the worst, you may still win because your squad is the more vital part of your results but you are not going at full force or at top potential..which is really just a shame!
Roma hired Luis on a leap of faith, thats their business.. and frankly it did not pay off in the end.. so why are we pushing our luck, no idea, he has Barca in his blood is just not enough take this important role. Our board maybe trying to hard to recreate the "Pep" era its bringing us down with sluggishly taken "Big" decisions imo.
And now to make the situation worse... we got problems between multiple squad members and the coach, especially (it seems) our... or the worlds...or maybe even histories best player.
Hard to be certain or reach hard facts to do with all these claims, but man if they are real... he's gotta go, what does he bring to the table... On the pitch brilliance or a tactical mastermind ? I cant see it so far, and im' not only talking results but everything.
Maybe if we actually start using a certain starting eleven instead of this world record team changing Madness, things would go smoother, needs to be "tested" lol.
Doesnt look overly bright right now.. we may still end up with results in the end but i would not want to renew Luis Enrique regardless.. but its not up to the fans, its up to the (Masters of incompetence) board.
Cules watched their team win nothing in a season that saw us not even ranked top 5 la liga but these days some of us are more frustrated with some of these things... the sanctions, the neygate, the unsettling relationship between players and coach.. and well according to some Madrid based so called "Sports newspapers" between players and board, coaching and board, fans and coaching, board and the grinch who stole christmas...etc
That was my rant for the month ! I'm still positive and upbeat overall, its only a matter of being angry that we are far from our true potential, The on the pitch magic is still beaming some light to the off the pitch dark tunnel!
Heck we still dditn even see our magical forward trio reach climax together !
