Back from hols. Anything happening? 😁

Let´s deal with Barcelona (THREAD). Starting with the feeling that there is a lot of jealousy for how they are trying to get out of a deep hole. Is everything they are doing right? No. Are they doing what they are suppose to? Mostly yes Image
Laporta is repeating the Virtuous Circle that brought so much success in his first era. All or nothing. Then he also blamed the past to explain big decisions. Now, ignoring that a pandemic had closed the money box for two years, has found in Bartomeu the perfect villain
In fact, it was Barto who separated some of the club businesses that are now being sold for almost £760m, which has allowed FCB to buy players. Clearly with Barto there were disastrous sporting decisions and expensive renewals of famous players, but not everything was bad

Few thoughts about yesterday #ChampionsLeague games

#LFC were clearly superior for most of the game and only an emotional push after Darwin goal (2-1 to Lpool just after HT) gave fans the impression a draw was possible
⚽ 5 subs have got two clear consequences: big clubs will win more, they have more depth, and role of the manager diminishes. First 3 #LFC (Jota, Firmino, Henderson) were easy choices. There is less inclination to work with what you have on pitch and more to bring good players on
⚽ As Pep said, there is nothing harder than trying to open up a 5-5 defence. No spaces. City were also aware that a mistake in the build up would mean a counter, so they were a touch conservative with possession. Both coaches felt job done

You might have heard many times that a manager is a bit of a solitary profession. With huge games coming up, this is what they have to do

- feel the opposite than everyone else (if they are tense, they ought to look calm, and so on)

(LITTLE THREAD)
- turn feelings around. Those three in the photo have been trying to convince players that they have to enjoy pressure, when the opposite is the natural way

- they have to trust the process, even when the demand around them is of big changes, specially after defeats
- victories and defeats, taken in isolation, are great impostors. Their analysis have to always look at the bigger picture

- the game is played constantly in their heads hours after it has been played. They need partners that understand they are not always there even they are

Bori Fati, Ansu Fati, has got an extraordinary story. He only met his son when the youngster was six.

Bori, former player of quality, moved to Spain and Portugal to earn enough to send money to their family -his wife asked him to take that step (thread)
It was really hard but managed to get few jobs, including driving a mayor around who looked after him (and many other emigrants). His name, Sanchez Gordillo.

Bori settled enough to bring the family over. When they landed from Guinea-Bissau, he could only say hi and go to work!
Soon after, one night Bori arrived late home and there were plenty of people waiting for him. “Are you aware how good your son is playing football!!”. He didn’t know

The press conference of Joan Laporta starts. Lots of questions that need answering, but first he will try to put some context to the departure of Leo Messi
“I am here to explain the situation about Messi… I need to say first, sadly we have such a bad financial past that means the wages are 110pc of the income. That means we have no flexibility… Situation is worse that we were told and what we had calculated based on official data”
“The debt is bigger than expected. That is linked to FFP of course. The new contract with Messi could not be approved… On that, we don’t agree with the deal LaLiga has reached because it mortgages us for half a century.

The club is above players, coaches, directors”
