Rafa Marquez is considered one of the top attacking centerbacks, has scored in all World Cups hes played in. Coaching Yamal would be insane, or any of the Spanish kids
the problem with xavi is that things have already gone astray and the current group of players as a whole is not able to handle stress while xavi is also not able to reign them in. it took xavi publicly resigning for the players to start calming down again and that strategy wont be available anymore if they start the season dropping 10 points immediately and the players start panicking again. then it would be too late for the club to do anything and they will then be forced to sack xavi to get things under control.
Xavi wasn't doing jack s***. The youngsters that have been breaking through have done so on the merit of their own talent not because Xavi is some brilliant mentor. He is hot-headed, biased, inflexible with his personnel and tactics and cannot handle the big occasions all that well. Man should be shipped back to Qatar because that's where he belongs.
@@ghosthaunter6820Everything you said is on point. Xavi never outgrew his playing days behavior; immature and childish. He has not been barca coach for half of the duration of Sergio Ramos' playing career but he has managed to bag almost more than half of Ramos' career red cards. You wanna know why the players make idiotic decisions, look at their coach's behavior first. Marquez will be a better manager than Xavi because he is calm and collected.
True....but ATM back then was nowhere near the team it is now. It was in RM's "we're looking for a serious rival for the derby" banner era. They were midtable side with the greatest achievement being getting to 4th in the table. Love Aguirre, but this isn't the same thing as getting the FCB job offer
Gab Marcotti literally just wrote an article two days ago saying it’s best for Xavi to leave because he’s too close to and too invested in the club. So Barcelona would then hire a guy who spent years playing at the club and several years managing their reserve team? Wouldn’t that be a very similar route with Marquez?

It appears you re obviously not watching barca's games. It isn't not just winning or losing but how you do. We've obviously lost our dna/style of play under him.
I shut this video when he said the team is add odds with each other. these news fabricators create whatever narrative that serve their purpose, especially the likes of ESPN and Mundo Deportivo. ESPN for me has zero credibility when it comes to reliable sports journalism.
Ballist what you're talking about, they can't afford to pay coach salary where they can buy Players for 50-70M nonsense and rafa Marquis won't be Barca coach for sure
First of all the Mexican federation is corrupted. They put in a manager that’s gonna listen to them rafa Marquez knows this. I’m sure he would love it but he knows the state of Mexican soccer has a lot of corrupt officials at the head of it.
I don't even think laporta wants rafa either ofc he's not gonna say that but barca don't have the funds to get an experience coach Yes hansi flick is there but who knows his requirements he's gonna want his piece, also remember xavi wasn't laportas 1st choice either but he was cheaper for the same reasons there's no fund

Well, when you have an inpatient board and spoiled fan base, this is what you get
Xavi won the laliga and a super cup
And has played in the quarter finals of the UCL.
I think he did well

@@barcavibes7514 i have to admit , as i got older , i can't watch that many full time games anymore - mostly extended highlights
it's hard to say , but obviously , players like Lewy and Gündo are too old to create a new era over 4-7 years , and De Jong was brought in because of that one good season with Ajax in 2019 IIRC , and because Koeman (?) wanted him
i would focus as much on Spanish/Portugese/Argentinian/Brazilian/Uru players as possible , on La Masia players ,
look to Athletic Bilbao and Basque players in general , be like Leipzig always on the lookout for new hungry players
but get rid of these high payroll players who aren't delivering in UCL anymore
then again , if Lewy and Gündo and De Jong stay , and next season a new coach comes in and maybe 2-3 new unexpected players , maybe they challenge for LaLiga because Real once again focuses only on UCL , and they will get team chemistry problem with Endrick and Mbappé ?
maybe even play a diamond prmanently in midfield for Barca , who knows
problem is Gündo , as much as a respect him and the things he won , he is too slow , and not the sort of tempo dribbling guy Barca wants at every position
maybe even move J.Cancelo to CDM as an experiment?
the great thing is , as bad as the 1-4 was as a result , Barca won the first game and went up 1-0 in the second

doesn’t work like that

They probably know the corruption that takes place in the federation. That's why the likes of Javier Aguirre are not coaching the national team.

Y’all Americans talk way too much when it comes to football these days…
