Luis Enrique

^ We've got beaten by Celta badly twice too. Against Athletic too.

Club still want Lucho to continue, but moved the deadline for him to decide what to do until 9th March. After that the planning for the next season and the future will begin formally.

If he stays one more season we won't recover for another 5 years after that! He will ruin us completely! Are they mad?!?!

Hope they're just saying it because they know he won't continue. How dumb can they be if it's true?

 

[Devils]

Yeah, no. This isn't Arsenal, once we are officially eliminated from the CL, and we will be going out next week, Lucho will be done. He isn't going to recover from the outcry from the media and fans.

That's it. Really.

Over-reliance on individuality(and that one of three players only) over a sound system is always bound to fail unless you improve.

This is the #1 reason teams like Alaves and Betis have managed to put us under so much pressure in the league too.

He's as good as gone apparently ..

We will either take the manager from Everton , Spurs or Napoli from what I've gathered ....


Can't happen soon enough tbh

 

[Barcilliant]

I'll never figure out how we won that treble or even the double. Lol.

How did it come to this?

If we are to apportion blame it must go all round.

Lucho 60℅, board and Robert 25 ℅ and players 15℅.

 

[Cool]

Don't let the media fool you, Lucho is leaving the minute the referee blows the whistle for full time against Alaves for the CDR.

The reason he has not been sacked mid-season is:

1) We're not Real Madrid.

2) Honor his accomplishments and time here.

 

[Barcilliant]

The problem with Lucho is the sheer half assed way he is trying to get us to play. It's neither attack or counter attack. It's a weak version of both.

If he wanted to play counter attacking style he should have switched to 4-2-3-1 and bought the right players for it. A world class DM and a world class CB.

Yep his position here is untenable. He is stubborn but not stupid.

I feel sad about it. I am glad he brought a different thought process with the counter attacking and set pieces but somehow he lost his way.

I wouldn't mind Pochettino, he has done good things for Spurs. However I don't think he has the intensity we need. I want a manager who will light a fire under the players asses and it seems like Sampaoli is the only one available that has that intensity.

Sampaoli most likely will renew. It's probably Bielsa as caretaker/one season manager until Board fully decides on who they want.

Haven't seen any news of him renewing though?

Pochettino will never manage Barca. He's said as much hasn't he?
