Ronald koeman . New barca manager.

[bitter-no-better]

Wijnaldum to Barca according to the Red Echo.

Would not surprise me. Still haggling over his contract and think they want the bayern player (thiago) to come and replace him anyway?.

 

[Moomin]

He will get 2 years pay for 12 months of work.

Not a bad number at all for moonhead.

 

[Tigger]

come home Geri lad

I'd have him in a heartbeat

 

[YoboCopter]

I'd have him in a heartbeat

Well better than walcott

 

[f.t.r.s]

Guess this means we stop paying him now right?

 

[Mildredblues]

I'm failing to understand all the "Get rid of Messi" opinions. He has been La Liga top scorer this season. He and Suarez were Barcelona's best players in that Bayern thrashing. Without him, Barca would be mid table.
And where is the proof of him supposedly controlling every aspect at the club? Aside from newspaper/tabloid and media/twitter gossip? No actual quotes from anyone with relevance. He has publicly voiced crticism of the clubs board over the past. Nothing else.
Get a manager with a viable statergy in place to accomodate his talent along with the others and their "crises" would end. Koeman could be that guy.
The club ended in second position having won the last 2 league titles. They're hardly fallen to ACMilan/Man United levels of dirge. And their biggest rivals, Real Madrid are having a clear up of their own adjusting to the post Ronaldo era. The Bale thing is a joke and they rely heavily on the aging Benzema.
The entitled Barcelona fans are hard to please though. Expecting trebles every year as if it is their right to win.

The only ways Messi leaves is if some oddball club from the east with an obscenely wealthy backer makes a bid or an Italian club (needs a slowish yet wealthy league - maybe a French team potentially, Germany and England are out due to their pace) offers a substantial pay deal that is subsidised by Barcelona who could at least recoup some of their outgoings on what is a rapidly diminishing asset (or indeed an increasing liability).

He's essentially a world class version of the Siggurdson problem.

Even so, I'd rather have their problem than ours.

True dat.

Come and buy all the crap you bought please ta

Cant wait to see Michael Keane and Cuco Martina playing behind Messi and Suarez and trying to keep Real and Athletico's goals tally to less than 10.

The moonheaded moron is talking about it not being a revolution at Barca - the gaff needs razing to the ground ya loon..... fella is already out of his depth.

Messi and co will be running rings around the man, when he can bother his arse to get into training off the golf course that is.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Can't see this working out at all.

Look at the fat headed Gerbil.

Should be working for free for 20 years paying off his fkin mess

It's not supposed to. He's a caretaker until the new board elected in March chooses a new manager. Nothing less, nothing more.
