I'd like to talk shit but to be honest, it's the worst squad Barcelona has seen in over 30 years. Even the Gaspart era had guys like Rivaldo and Patrick Kluivert up front. Our current forward line is just midtable at best. That's the reality.

Whether you get Klopp, Pep, Xavi, Zidane, or whatever it'll all be the same; this squad is shit.

Terrible football. Thought he'd at least bring some sort of midfield knowledge to the team but we look worse there. Of course time has to be given to any new manager to put their stamp on the team but this is shite so far.

"Barcelona have taken hundreds of corners and scored exactly 0 goals this season"

Why do we even bother with corners lmfao

Poor set up again for players available.

His hands are tied but three games without a goal from open play v three bang average teams is ridiculous.

Benfica just conceded three at home and Celtic put three by this Betis side.

Same could have been said about Koeman and defending.

Koeman had zero knowledge or ability to organize a defence.

I wouldn't mind if we conceded a shit ton of goals/soft goals but had an absolute idea of how to attack. I can guarantee you Pep with this same set of players would accomplish exactly this. Even Pep wouldn't make top 4 in the league with this squad BUT at least there would be attacking identity.

We look as clueless than under Koeman/Setien.

Also, Messi carried these absolute bums (players/managers) last 2 seasons. He was being ripped for not beating RM/coming 2nd or 3rd but without him, we're mid table.

Bayern Munich is gonna give this man a beating he wont forget.

Hate that it has to be Xavi, but it is what it is, dawg.

Be real, folks. Or we should rotate every 2 weeks club legends Bakero, Laudrup, Stoichkov, Ferrer, Sergi, Abelardo, Cocu, Davids, Ronaldinho, Deco, Thiago Motta, Gabri, Oleguer, Puyol until the end of the season?:lol: Stoichkov should get a month credit, he knows how to slap around those kids.

The thing is, that was also true with Koeman and, as shit as he was, he was crucified for making the same mistakes Xavi is making right now... So the club now has to pay 10 million to the dutch for no real improvement, money well spent...

It's long-term investment. There was no progress in Koemans team play. Mostly downhill.
