All I can say....

thegoodjoehunt:



I agree with you. What is even more shocking is that Roura grew up as a player at the La Masia academy at Barcelona with Tito and Guardiola. I hope something is done fast or someone is promoted from within. It just doesn't make sense that no one in the coaching crew can take over.

For now Roura is lost and it is hurting the legacy of Barca. Now Mourinho's mouth will start wagging.

CFCfan:

Abi oh. Mourinho certainly has some bragging rights now. He can claim that he is the 1st manager to beat Barcelona THREE times in one season. Also, he will finally be at ease, since he has now beaten Barca at Camp Nou.

If he beats Man Utd next week. Then he would be on top of the world. He will now call himself THE ONE. That man and mouth.

If he beats Man Utd this week. Then he would be on top of the world. He will now call himself THE ONE. That man and mouth.

CFCfan:

I know, right. The icing on the cake would be if he wins the Champions League; he will become the first manager to do so with 3 different teams from 3 different countries!

thegoodjoehunt:

I'll use three scenarios to explain how this really works.

First Rijkaard and Henk Ten Cate.

Most of the tactical works was done by Henk Ten Cate but Rijkaard got most of the praises. When Henk left, Rijkaard never succeeded as a coach.

Henk later joined Avram Grant at Chelsea and Chelsea went to the finals and lost to Manchester United. As soon as Henk left Avram Grant because of Grant being sacked by Roman, Grant has never been successful.



Second Ray Wilkins under Ancelotti.

Remember when Chelsea had almost all black players with only Cech and Terry as white players. With Fereira, Alex, Cole, Mikel, Essien, Ramires, Kalou, Malouda, and Drogba. Chelsea was cruising and thrashing teams. By mid season many thought the league was rounded up and then Roman sacked Wilkins and Chelsea fell till Man Utd carried the team.

Finally, Benitez and Pako.

Both were successful till Benitez won the Champions League with Liverpool. Later Benitez fell out with Pako and since then, Benitez never achieved the same level of success again.


So this time, Roura might have worked with Guardiola and Tito but I don't think he can read games, make the right positional switches to win games. It is clear Tito and Guardiola losses is telling on the team. What I don't get is, isn't there anyone in the coaching crew who can get this team clicking? Maybe Roura is egoistic and won't let anyone help him because I believe Xavi is suppose to have the tactical skills to help the team.

U r a colombian nd I bliv u tk a lot of dia products and dats d reason y u quotin nonsence, let d pako or wilkin or hen takabe or wot do u cal him go find demselves a team 2 coach na or ws he rikys assistant wen riky took holland 2 d semis in euro 2000 only were knockd out by italy afta destroyin italy in open play. Was dat nt d reason barca hired him

Trustgt: Real Madrid will fall when they come to Sir Matt Busby Way, Old Trafford M16 0RA "the theater of dreams" just watch out. MUFC is neither Barca or Real Madrid mate. El-clasico versus classical football.

Can't wait until Barcelona are out of the Champions League!!!

Pls leave that BANCELONA fan alone. If football does not favour the players again, there's still an option of going into acting since they blend acting and football together with Busquets as their OSCAR ACADEMY WINNER. World Renowned Actor.
