Quique Setien

[malvolio]

I can't blame him. They gave him rotten hand. There's no way to turn this team around other than blowing it up.

it's not as if he was forced with a gun to his head to take the job. stop feeling pity for a guy who will be sacked with some millions in his account.

all this bullshit about feeling sorry for him, or the fact that he shouldn't be judged it's just mediocre thinking. this is barcelona, as a manager you don't have time. either you win, or you go home.

How does this game make him a joke? We were the better team and had some really good chances, Athletic were limited to 2 man counter attacks and hopeful shots. If he's a joke it's before this game not because of this game

if Valverde played like this people would have killed him. We were shit, stop fooling yourself.

We were unlucky today. Both Messi and Griezmann had golden chances to win it. Much better performance than the opening day that's for certain. This was probably the biggest opportunity for any silverware this season, of course we are only 3 points behind Madrid but if we are being honest we've got more slip ups in us than them this year.

if Valverde played like this you would have killed him. We were shit.

Not at all lol. We genuinely weren't bad today overall. We were terrible finishing our chances. Busquets was awful too, Setien shouldn't start him. Don't think this game makes him a joke though bit of a strong statement

Well Valverde did play terrible during his first few of the job. He got utterly smashed by Real Madrid.

Nobody was calling for his head then.

Keep it up. 2nd half was probably the best we played away this season.

Quique " Busquets y nada mas" Setien.

Valverde had two years. Setien's had a month.

For what its worth I don't think Setien is the solution beyond this season. He was unlikely to ever be one.

Barca played well. Should have won.

Cant compete on three fronts with squad anyway.

the fuck are you talking about? We lost 1-0 to them in the first fixture of the season where we were completely toothless. Today we dominated. FFS.

Yea, but it's still sad, because had we won tonight as we should've, we would've been very very big favorites to win the cup.

 

[te amo barca]

EV apologists twisting the facts and creating alternative history as we speak. Shameless!

 

[Raketa10]

Unlucky? We had good chances? We played good? WE DOMINATED? In what? Ball possession? LOL! Who the fuck cares about that? What are some of you smokng? I have seen people cursing Valverde for much better performances. We are dead, and this season is over and some of you can continue lying to yourself but that's a fact.

I am not even blaming Setien he had a lifetime opportunity and he took it but he is not the right man for the job.

We were good in the 2nd half.
In the first half, Mats had to play risky passes all the time, all players were useless, Rakitic was hiding, Busi was a tree, Frenkie was lost, Alba was scared, Roberto is not an attacker, Fati is a kid, Lenglet can't play under pressure, Mats was making mistakes.

First half looked like Anfield except against a crappy team.

In the 2nd half, we improved, dominated and missed 2 golden chances.

Also, about a part: that we missed chances and they were lucky, is it something new?
Barca is losing in that way since always.

We always concede either from a random counter or from a cross and a header (Atletico in a CL; Juve in a CL, Roma in a CL, Liverpool in a CL).
