Pep Guardiola

[Flavia]

Yeah, Jamdav is right on this one. He wouldn't be back so soon.

He is losing this because he is psychologically defeated by Tito's demise. Otherwise there is no way Real Madrid can get pass this easy. Som-hi Pep.

Rubbish.

It is down to the tactics and the players.

Nope. Pep messed it up tactically.

Well, perhaps he was predicting Tito's death so he lost the first leg for the same reason too, right?

Come on now. That's BS. Pep choose the wrong tactics and messed up.

Indeed he messed up tactics. But he doesn't look much concentrated either. Rarely saw him coming out and shouting from sidelines. All I am saying is psychological part plays a huge factor in sport.

They lost last week and it could have been 3/4-0.

It is nothing to do with Titos death.

What if we have elections this summer, and Laporta wins and kicks out the board members that Pep didn't like, and gives him total control of the team.

Would Pep consider it then?

Barca needs Pep they said
Pep needs Barca they never said

He had as much control over the team under the previous board as he had before. It is not the reason he left and wont be a reason for him to return.

Would be amazing.
Personally think Laporta as president and Bartomeu as vice president would work well (if both were willing).
An antidote to (be) divide(d) and (be) conquer(ed).

Not sure how you know this for a certainty, but might be.
All I know is Tata seems to have no power at all.

Wanting Pep back?

Tikitaka is dead. Remember Bayern was the ultimate best team in history of the game and there was no way in hell they wont win UCL 7 years straight..

 

[ceefoo]

I'd take Pep back in a heartbeat. (No sarcasm intended).

Jokes aside, Barcelona play well with a coach that knows their system of play and can implement that system well. Coaches like Pep, who have been playing that way for years, tend to only coach (at a high level) teams that play that way.
For example Xavi would make a perfect coach for Barca but maybe not so good for another team.

It takes two with Barca, the players and the coach, and if they agree (and are motivated), they do very very well.
