Txiki Begiristain to leave role at end of season

[Didsbury Dave]

An enormous component in our success. A big loss but I’m sure we will get his successor right.

Yes why not respected by everyone in football World wide and has the connection with pep and sorano

I don't know what Iniesta could bring to the role. He's only just retiring from football.
I'm not dismissing it but I'd feel we'd go for someone with a lot more experience.
Remember that Pep may also be leaving in the next year or two so that connection may not be applicable

Simon Rolfes: Who is Bayer Leverkusen’s behind-the-scenes mastermind?

From Florian Wirtz to Alejandro Grimaldo and even Xabi Alonso himself, Bayer Leverkusen’s director of sport Simon Rolfes has demonstrated just how keen his eye is for spotting and recruiting talent.

Feasible, particularly if we are keen on appointing Alonso as Pep’s replacement.

Could be the end of the beginning too.

Txiki has done a fanatic job.

Unless he’s also going to the Rags, then he’ll just be the bloke who brought Scott Sinclair, Maicon, Jack Rodwell, Wilfred Bony, Eliaquim Mangala, Fernando, Nolito, Patrick Roberts, bought Angeliño back, Benjamin Mendy, Feran Torres, Joao Cancelo, Kalvin Phillips and Matheus Nunes… into the club, the Red bastard!

Seriously though, he’ll be a big miss and this could change City in a big way as he’s been instrumental in our success.

Rolfes, alonso and wirtz

 

[Stoned Rose]

Great to see a succession plan in place and the new kid already sorted.

Have to hope the transfer jumper fits him.

I fully expect this thread to descend into farce quite quickly.

First poster to say he's going because of the 115 should be perma banned.
