Yes - we drained everything out of the current squad and we had more misses than hits.
Would you rather we hadn't?
And as such not won the treble, the 4 in a row, the 5 in a calendar year, the 7 in two years etc?
These things happen. Wouldn't trade it for a whole array of new players!
I love these guys, I love what they have given us, and I still love them now that they have nothing left to give. And Pep.
Change is coming, and the players will leave and be replaced, till then, they absolutely deserve my gratitude rather than angst.
As does Txiki.
True big player but also big and highly respected football exec.Worth pointing out that to people of a certain age, there could be a little hero worship going on there. Was a big player for Barca when some of these executives would have been young.
I don't care how successful you become, its always fun to meet a childhood hero.
The numbers and contacts in his little black book are priceless and I hope he has give them to Viana.
Wondered why this thread had been bumped then remembered we lost at weekend.
Someone will bump the Lilo thread soon too I imagine.
I couldn't even find the 'Kitman Leaving' or 'do we need a left back' threads to bump!

Txiki Begiristain has decided to extend his City stay by a month and a half until the summer transfer window closes,Incoming director of football,Hugo Viana will work side by side with Begiristain to facilitate the transition process.

Something big must be on the cards, Txiki extends then KdB is told they aren't renewing his contract.

Txiki must be going to look after hopefully a couple of world class transfers? Viana seems to want to go down the 20 year old route but we need that wow factor as well as the potential signings.
Hopefully it's just a sign of a very busy summer and a man that respects the club he was worked for and wants to leave with his held head high and the club in a very good position.Txiki must be going to look after hopefully a couple of world class transfers?

Strange way of looking at it. Lot of ins and outs to do, plus 2 separate windows to work with,and need some sort of plan to have a squad for the CWC, yet still move players in and out. Maybe mini contract extension for KDB.Undermining Viana?
Would be unfair to just say to Viana heres your office in you go sort that pile of jobs out.Makes perfect sense for Txiki to hang around a month or so.
