Pep Guardiola - "I only asked Rosell one thing, having gone 6,000km away, that he left me in peace. He didn't honour his word."

Guardiola attacks Rosell's board and confirms he wants Thiago.
"I want Thiago. I know him very well. I've talked with Rummeniege and Sammer but there are no news. We'll see."
"I went 6,000 km away and asked Barça's board to let me alone but they didn't get it. They didn't keep their word."
"They use Tito's disease to harm me. I won't forget this. Because I've seen Tito in New York, and if I don't, it is because it was not possible, not because my fault."

Yeah, reading that transcript, a few things are clear...Rosell is evil and in all probability why Pep & the rest of the Cruyff loyalists have left the club...The Neymar story never felt genuine to me and now only supports the theory that the board along with MD have been gradually attacking Guardiola at every opportunity...Now it definitely feels adversarial and even if Pep's declaration of intent for Thiago is nothing more than a negotiating tactic for his brother's client to get an improved deal at Barcelona, the war is on

Took all of 3 years for Rosell to shite on everything Laporta, Txiki & Pep accomplished with this team...Some of us saw this coming a mile away

How has Rosell done that then?

Where hasn't he done it is the easier question?...Follow the exodus, for starters...Who is more known for their character & honor along with the virtues of the club, Pep or Rosell?...Even the local papers are back to all the usual nonsense that I almost forgot what it was like before Laporta was in office

This. And so the bridges have burned. I wonder about Rosells' motivation though (attacking Pep I mean) as being an ass can't be the whole of it. No matter though, what's happening here is beyond the pale.

I don't get it... How are they harming him using Tito's disease?

I have no idea what's going on... Could you please be a little more clear as to what's going on between Pep and the board?

Some of you are missing one thing. Pep is not taking Thiago from Rosell. He is taking him from Barca.
Rosell is a piece of work but don't confuse pep for a saint. He is following his own ambition outside Barcelona and always had it planned not to be Barca manager for a long time.

Can't say I blame him... To each his own, I mean as much of a fan he is of the club it doesn't stop him from trying his best in his new job!!

Even though he was a life time fan of the club he still demanded a hell of a lot of money to work for the club right? I didn't see you criticise him for not being a saint then :shrug:

And he conveniently pulls out dirty laundry to shift the focus to Sandro and away from the fact he's trying to poach a player from Barcelona.

What is wrong with this pinhead, Has he lost his mind, Or was he always like that.
I don't care if had problems with the board, He should keep his mouth shut, He knows how much he's valued between the players and even tito, Creating a rift between them and the current board is not a good thing, Weather we like or not, Rosell will remain the president for 3 more years, Ultimately it's Barca that will be hurt by this, Not pep, He's in germany now enjoying his vacation and poaching another coach's great work.
