Txiki Begiristain

[Fourteen]

Txiki has a contract with FC Barcelona just as any member of staff does i.e. players, managers, coaches. Of course his profile is politically relevant, he is very much linked to Laporta and any president depends on his technical secretary to carry out his will. Txiki's contract expires at the end of the season but Laporta has spoken about extending it (into the mandate of the next president) to ensure continuity. Not what an incoming president wants, I'm sure.

Yeah, thought as much, Cheers dude.

I think he shouldn't get his contract extended because most likely the new president will want his technical secretary and not Txiki.

Maybe we should replace txiki with bill clinton He done what i think almost impossible job to release two reporters from kim jong ill's prison.

Doesn't the new president get to decide who the new sporting director is after elections?

 

[Cule Angles]

Have I not answered that question in my answer to Jordan?

Before when Sandro was around. Sandro was basically doing the transfers.

If Sandro is president Bakero will be the sporting director.

An interesting piece of info. Any sources on that?

 

[spursandbarca]

been told this by my friend who played for sociedad and Barca.

Txiki already said he will leave when Laportas mandate ends as well

Txiki: "I did my best this summer. I brought 3 players."

One of the things I recently read intimated that there would be no sporting director should Rosell be elected.

Of course there will be. Rosell is his friend in facebook so he knows that stuff man.

I think he's done alright with his time at Barca. Not the best but how many teams have perfect director of footballs?

Players like Keita and Pinto are hard to come by. Good solid squad players which were excatly what we needed. Having said that, he has over paid for a lot of players including Alves, Zlatan, Chysus...

Txiki: "I did my best this summer. I brought 3 players."

I thought that was George Bush talking to Pep!!

Maybe Sandro doesn´t mind having him as a ficus as he would deal with transfers himself anyway?
