The players have given up on him.

He's far from perfect and made his mistakes but I actually feel for him.

Yeah, he tried to change things, but once he hit resistance from the parts of the club who should have been on board, he's given up. Seems similar a bit with Tata Martino's season.

Now, strategically, we need to let these old veterans have their way next season, and put pressure on them to deliver the next La Liga at least. And if not, if they fail next season, that should be seen as ultimate confirmation that heavy rebuilding is needed and that their approach is dead for the future.

We should have had this confirmation since 2 years ago when one of the main objectives of the club, the Champions League, turned into ugly humiliations consistently.

In no way or shape these veterans should be today in this super powerful position after the disasters they delivered in Europe since 2015-16.

He's clearly given up on the team too. Camera panned to him at like minute 83 and he was straight up staring off into space.

No one has the energy or desire to even try these days, players or staff. The mindset surrounding everyone just seems to be "what's the point?". I don't know if I've ever seen such a defeated and toxic culture at a big club before, this is the legacy of 10 years of Rosell+Bartomeu. This is what they've turned the club into, a total dumpster fire from top to bottom.

Could not have said better myself.

He is done. Not entirely 100% his fault but the fact that he can't even manage his players or effectively execute his game plan renders him completely useless.

I don't know who we can get honestly. Make Messi the manager until he and his buddies are gone.

Just forge a coaching permit and get Zlatan. The only thing he likes more than himself is winning. :super2:

I feel for this guy (and i feel a little for Valverde after seeing what this club has become). that was a broken man going through the motions out there today. he knows hes not allowed to change the team shape, he knows hes not allowed to sub Suarez, he knows hes not allowed to tell Messi where to play. he gets a shot at his dream job, a chance to manage Messi and what does he get in return? a bunch of entitled cunts.

Koeman and Xavi won't go anywhere near this club so sadly we'll get another cuck - why not just bring Valverde back at this point

Quique Seti?n: "Griezmann? I see him doing well, the problem is that not everyone can play. I didn't bring him on earlier because I thought we were playing well, Riqui did well, and we always try to have Su?rez and Messi on the pitch."

"and we always try to have Su?rez and Messi on the pitch."

This is just so damning. Setien and so many people around the club (including plenty of idiot twitter/reddit fans) actually believe nonsense like Suarez is still among the best forwards in the world and Busquets is the best CDM in the world, that "we always should try to have them on the pitch". People actually still think these guys are indispensable. It's criminally insane.

They don't even try to use 1 ounce of their brainpower to try to observe.

Reckon he?s gone this week?

Nope, will have to ride with him until Barca B play-offs get finished.
The board would love for B team to get promoted so they can celebrate their success in securing the future, despite La Masia always going down when B team plays there :banghead::banghead::banghead:

people in here should realize that these are grown ups that take decisions based on sane judgement. all this pity and feeling sorry for idiots that take millions home just to sit like mummies on the bench is getting ridiculous.

thats a black and white way of looking at things and assuming all anyone cares about in football is taking home millions.

Well, after the incident vs. Celta, I don't blame him to not dare to sub off Suarez and Messi. If he did they probably would boycott the next game or two.
