Txiki Begiristain set to leave role at end of season - OFFICIAL
- Thread starter Don Karleone
- Start date
Now your pushing it, maybe Pogba could bring his unused PEDs and rejuvenate our old boys!!Yeah, agreed but worth a risk I think.
I almost convinced myself Pogba was worth a go but no...

Yeah true, but the point was there’s players out there that would be good squad options without overspending and that 115 shouldn’t have stopped us from getting a Rodri backup or a RB.Calafiori makes John Stones look like the fittest man in football.
Musiala, Wirtz in the summer, Zubimendi and a striker in January.
I do think one of our CB will be replaced next summer, we need some pace in there.

My view is we had 2 spaces at the start of the season ,with Echeverri coming just 1,I think we have targets but decided next summer was a better time for us to make room by letting KDB, Walker, Gundogan go maybe Bernardo too and we then have 4 spaces to fill and I think we’ll spend big on at least 3 of those players. Bringing more squad players in last summer would have left little space for those bigger names which I expect to be targeted next summer.Yeah true, but the point was there’s players out there that would be good squad options without overspending and that 115 shouldn’t have stopped us from getting a Rodri backup or a RB.
I see you point but think the club are looking further ahead than this season.The APT and 115 cases, Pep uncertainty and they knew Txiki was planning to go plus KDB and Walker coming to a natural end ,possibly players we want long term weren’t available they are just part of that reasoning. I expect a re boot next summer.
It’s why I think Pep either goes or stays for at least 2 years more,don’t think 1 year helps anybody.
They knew he was done, he was always in the press questioning their players, Barca have come out of this better than we have sadly.They didnt get rid , gundy hated it there and was desperate to come back here
Barca have put the young players in and look at what they are doing, so far ripping up LaLiga and doing very well in the CL.
It was a no brainer to bring him back for a year but it looks like it was a bad decision at this time.
We did not need squad options , we needed players that would come into the first team.Yeah true, but the point was there’s players out there that would be good squad options without overspending and that 115 shouldn’t have stopped us from getting a Rodri backup or a RB.
We signed too many squad players for a few windows.
