Its just interesting that other Barca coaches who dealt with similarly difficult situations weren't given this gigantic leash by the same people.

Yeah, but call it blind hope but I actually got a feeling that we will get a few signings in at winter and have a good second half of season.

yeah. excellent as in we put in 3 decent crosses, should have conceded a second goal and scored purely by lack and an own goal.
excellent indeed. reaching New footballing heights.

Nobody won a league title with budget-Barca except for Xavi... so... you need to wait a bit for that kind of statement.

Koeman failed to get a title that seemed like a sure thing at the end. At home vs Granada. Then got the team to 9th place in the next season and got sacked for just cause. Seemed like he gave up anwyay.

Setien was just a passenger, the players didn't even listen to him, had no authority over the locker-room.

Xavi achieved more as a Barca manager than both put together already.

When Valverde was here we were all fuming when we were wining games by 1 goal difference and now under Xavi that's more than acceptable. Some new standards for Xavi indeed.

Of course the standards are different since the situation of the club is totally different. :lol:

I am personally pleased that the club grabbed a big title last season in these shit times. More than I expected.

Situation is different but so is La Liga. Basically all teams are weaker. Just look at Girona and their roster. What's even more frustrating is the fact that Girona is playing much better football than Barca This season. Should we now debate who has a better team Barca or Girona?

Serghei will probably tell you yeah actually, Girona have a better roster.

Not so weak. I bet duels between English and Spanish teams in Europe in the last seasons are pretty equal.
