cares about the club is an overstatement. the guy takes home millions and doesn't lose anything other than some image by failing at a rebuilding barcelona.

what's with all the praising for a guy who never in a million years would have got a job at a similar elite club? it's as if he is doing charity work.

It's like charity work to accept all the conditions that I listed above?
Do you think Pep would accept them? Hell no

As for the millions, I don't buy at all that speculation.
The fact that he accepted getting paid whenever Tusquets had the money to pay him, means he does not care that much for the money
Maybe he cares about something else though, like respect?
and he is using his contract as a weapon to protect himself against the disrespect towards him coming first and foremost from the president, but also from many others in and around the club?

Laporta is unacceptable on this.
He has the right to not be pleased by the football Keoman plays,
but disrespecting the coach PUBLICLY shows very bad on him and has nothing to do with the culture of the club

it's 7 points in 3 games. and we play kind of shit.

Dembele, Kun, Ansu fit that result would be entirely different - again with the wishful thinking and counting the chickens before they hatch, barcaforum residents like to do this all the time.

fans don't like koeman because he is demonstrating the same negative traits shown in his previous jobs as club manager.

Yeah. Typo. I mean't 7 points from a possible 9. We're playing shit?. I disagree. Are you expecting champagne football with this squad?. Dembele, Kun, Ansu hell even Braithwaite all fit and the result would be different.You can't expect the team to function effectively without the best attackers. Take out depay and we are toothless. Isn't that like obvious?. Dude wtf?. Take Gnarby, Sane, Lewa, Meuller out and Bayern are a completely different team, probably toothless too.

Pack your shit and fuck off.

That's enough. Every day he remains, there is more chance we finish outside the top 4.

While the players we have leave a lot to be desired, and we weren't that good before Koeman came here, but to play like how today is, is on Koeman.

Appreciate his dedication, his love for Barca and his trust in the youngsters but Koeman is clearly not up to this job. He can't offer anything anymore.

He doesn't have any ideas. This whole game was basically cross and hope for the best.

Exactly.

Cross and pray, putting Coutinho RW, playing a lot of players out of position, fielding a Bob/Busquets midfield... There are a lot of signs that he has no ideas.

Didnt think team as a shape or tactics were bad other than Busi at DM and maybe not taking off Coutinho sooner.

The change of tactics to zing in the crosses created the best chances and was right move.

Seen far worse set ups from Barca than that and if Busi doesnt sell a goal early doors most likely different game.

Sevilla away its a loss. So might as well consider this our worst start ever and out of top 4. We are still to face Valencia, Atletico and Real.

You have to beat teams like Granada at home. The squad can be an excuse against better teams. Not vs bottom teams. The squad is massively underperforming. That's on Koeman and his tactics which are simply not good enough.
