Managerial merry Go round part III

[Cassano]

Both Setien and Abidal apparently sacked. Fine with that, but not sure who they bring in now. Pochettino, Pimienta and I think Gallardo were rumored to the top candidates. No to Pochettino and Pimienta lacks experience.

I can understand why not. He’s gonna run the heck out of people. But maybe if they hadn’t been dire, they could get more of a say? Sure, gotta keep Messi happy but beyond that, the rest really can kick rocks.

 

[les Habs]

I don't blame Xavi for turning down the job. It wasn't the right time months ago and it still isn't the right time. I think he should wait until Messi and anyone else he played with at the club, bar maybe Sergi, are gone.

I'm not heavyweight, I'm big-boned!

Suarez can f*** off.

If this is true and I highly doubt it is, then it's about his remarks years ago... which I doubt is true.

Xavi should wait and while he's waiting I would suggest he finds a real league to coach in.

 

[Cassano]

This guy was terrible at Everton and is considered for Barca job. Shambles.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

I don't want him at all. Similar to that fake Henry rumour. Luckily Koeman has euros and only a jackass would leave right before the tournament. He said it multiple times he won't leave until that's over. Damn some good came out of Coronavirus. I really don't think he's good and he will probably get exposed in Euros effectively ruining his chances. My hope/ money is still on Poch.

Im not gonna go full Pep bashing cause it gets out of control on here with the “he’s a fraud” shit but his City tenure has fell short IMO. And I guarantee you the City board/mgmt had higher goals when they put this in motion years ago. If you told them when he arrived that after 4 seasons they’d have 2 league titles and nothing in Europe they’d call you crazy.

They literally said they hired him to win them a Champions League. I don't think it's a secret that he hasn't met their expectations there, even with his domestic success.

 

[Evilo]

Barca should go for Blanc. He makes his team play like Barca's great years anyway.
It's sad they would even consider Henry, who's a failure so far.

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

f*** no. Doubt its true anyway

 

[Cassano]

The right thing IMO.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

The right thing IMO.

Yeah, that handle though. Definitely reliable.

 

[Cassano]

Didn't source it, but when the proper sources are saying Koeman, it probably has some reliability to it.

Probably I'm just pissed off. So f*** that guy.

 

[les Habs]

I don't much stock into the players balking at Pochettino. I still balk at him though.

If we can't get a Nagelsmann or maybe Ten Haag and all things considered I'd take a punt on Blanc. They just need to make it happen fast as the season starts in less than a month.

 

[Evilo]

Blanc would be ideal...

BUT....

 

[Savant]

Koeman appointment sets Barcelona back to the pre-Ronaldinho days. Koeman has only been successful when he has immaculate infrastructure. Not getting that at Barca right now.

that being said I think Xavi especially would be insane to take that job right now

As a Montreal Impact supporter, Henry is a disaster. Weird decisions after weird decisions.

They should hire Henry. That would be funny.

Well, funny for fans who don't root for Barca.

They're unsubstantiated rumours. Clearly there's a front 3 of Koeman, Pochetinno and Xavi. Plus barca b coach. Henry Rumours are pretty out there. DOn't believe everything you read.

Imagine picking Koeman over Blanc
