I feel so bad for Setien, man was doomed from the start like Ned Stark.

question is, will they let him stick long enough to sing his aria ... :harp:

How long it takes to build the club back up to legitimate CL contenders after that is anyone's guess. Could be anywhere from 2-10+ years. Good player recruitment and finding a world class manager that suits the club involves skill, but also a lot of luck.

I think this statement is very true and something that will cause a rude awakening for many users here. The La masia generation of Xavi, Iniesta and then of Messi, Pique, Busquets, was a once in a lifetime generation where all the stars aligned.

It will take a very long time to reach the heights of 2009-2016, maybe not even in our lifetime. We can still be a top team but more in the mold of 04-05/05-06 Barca when Riijkard was here. Top signings mixed in with a few canteranos.

The rebuild will happen naturally when the likes of Suarez, Pique, Busquets, Alba and yes Messi decide to leave or retire. No President and very few managers would try to force these players out. We are at the mercy of them until that time comes.

Pep was a B-team promoted manager and turned into one of the best coaches of all-time. Chances of that happening again to any club are very low. La Masia produced half a dozen all-time talents for free. That will not happen again in 100 years no matter how much importance you give to it.

A very true and sobering observation.
When we had barren seasons before we were used to bouncing back because there was a spine or core group.
Now, this whole core group has to be replaced or even worse gradually phased out.
The board and players have been toxic. It doesn't help that the socis are pretty useless too.
Overall a shit show.

Best thing Sarabia and Setien can do is resign asap and spill the dirt on the players.
That would be truly epic. If we implode let it be in spectacular style!!! 😃

lol, apparently neither S?tien or Sarabia hold their tongues very much, so it could be possible.
I think if Bar?a loses or draws vs atl?tico they are fired.

I would love for this to happen, just spill the beans on these brats and expose the truth.

Barca will offer them money to should up in some clause if they are sacked. So I doubt we'll see them talk too much, but I would love it too if they exposed these things.

Sell the lot of them and if Messi doesn't line up to the porgram let him go too. No other option. These guys think they are the bosses. That's what happens when you don't take measures when this type of behavior appears.

What a fucking shit bunch of people these seniors are. They may be legends but they are going to leave the club in a very poor way.
People talk about tactics but the first thing that needs to be adjusted is the attitude of these pricks Messi included. They think they own the club. They are fucking employees.

Just bench them all and play the other players in the rest of the games.

💥 At the end of yesterday's match, there was a tense discussion in Bar?a's dressing room between the players and Setien.

💥 The players disagree with some of the coach's methods and are beginning to realise that if they continue in this vein, they will not win trophies.

He's done, already lost the dressing room

You know what's funny? Setien probably knows better than the players but they are terrible to manage.

I hope the changes start from the players this time. I am so done with spoiled babies. Puig and Fati was breath of fresh air to watch. I loved that.
