The glory days are not coming back for Barca more often. If pepe comes back and spend 1 billion dollar might change something but still will not match with xavi, iniesta, messi barca..
-
The new manager is worse than Valverde.
Nothing will change, Barca remains unstable. -
Two things made Valverde disguising. First, his playing style was so boring – no new tactics, every time same boring passing around and wait for Messi to do something. Second, barca was humiliated many times during his career. Other manager has lost titles and important games but like this guy.
Edited: He should been have sacked after losing to El Clasico at the beginning of his career at barca. The new coach has not good enough for Barca. They should have hire Klupp, which is less likely, Ajax coach. -
Valverde should go to Manchester Utd
-
eshers = issues
-
He should get sacked the very match defeated by Roma.. I wonder why Barcelona didn't do that.. Come on you have the best player of the planet.. You should regret…
-
I respect for him from nepal
-
Paulinho was a great signing …valverde wasn't really the problem it's the club itself needs new management
-
Folks, it’s too early to celebrate.
-
As Valverde is sacked while being top of La Liga Ole Gunnar solskjaer keeps on smiling at Manchester United
-
Main problem is Barcelona is just buying everyone like Real Madrid not making own player
-
Right! whats the bet they will come after Klopp?
-
The last straw was probably that he had no plan. His plan was "Messi".
-
Yes he been out and our new coach is setien kiki
-
Come on! People who have seen regularly valverde's fc barcelona.. Know .. How poor were barca.. Under him. Non existent midfield.. With the players he has at his disposal he can do wonders.
-
V A L V E R D E…..deserved to go..period
-
If you love the new coach, subscribe me
-
Yeah we lost big games
But every team lost sometimes
I mean look at his win/loss ratio and goal ratio
He was good -
Well I don't approve of the new management either but could it be any worse? I mean it's cool to have back-to-back la liga titles but let's not forget that Barca were relying on sheer individual brilliance most of the time which breeds fatigue and frustration after a while. Enduring 2yrs of ucl exits in the most bizarre of ways, recent poor run of form with lack of ideas. And let's not forget Real Madrid hired and sacked decent coaches like changing clothes when they don't fit until they got Zidane back. Now all RM players, even the very poor ones have found their 'mojo' back. I THINK MANAGEMENT ALWAYS TAKES 75% OF THE BLAME REGARDLESS.

Ole out
-
This is the best football decision this CENTURY.
-
Time to replace him with Unai
-
Lost Neymar..Won 2 league titles with an aging team,gets sacked .
BARCA ,careful for what you wish for -
Needs to bring back Coutinho now
-
Took long enough.
-
I'm not sure what they are gaining with an unknown manager. Would have been more understandable a month ago and appointing Carlo Ancelotti. Xavi? Sure, but a complete unknown? Not a risk worth taking
-
Everything is set for Guardiolas return.
-
Barca should hire mourinho
-
That was great news, but they replace him with another similar coach, not top coach what Barca needs.
-
His lack of professionalism was the problem after a loss he clearly showed that he didn’t care and didn’t even want to make a change for the better I’m glad he’s out
-
Origi

Barcelona: Sacks coach after losing to Atletico Madrid and seeing their rivals Real Madrid win another trophy.
ESPN: wHaT wAs ThE lAsT StRaWWW???????
-
The last straw should of been the 2-0 lost to Granada
-
He couldn't have made Dembélé score that 4th goal at Camp Nou against Liverpool. Managers take so kuch sheet and not players, unfortunately
-
Poch will go there
