Also no guarantee over the manager. Guardiolas contract is up in June and he hasn't signed a new one and has hinted a lot that he needs to move on. Personally I think he wants the challenge of doing what he did with Barca at Chelsea and bringing out the Messi in Kakuta

Xavi will be 34 at the start of 2014 season, 35 in the Jan, Barca will buy him and send him out on loan to a lower La Liga side and he will be ready for them at the start of '14

he only signs 1 year contracts, cant imagine he would leave them yet

Also cant see him leaving for Chelsea, their is only one job he will get and he will have to wait for Fergie to be in a box first

you really rate Kakuta

I think he'd go to arsenal Chelsea man city and united tbh don't agree with people who think managers only limit themselves to one or two jobs.

And Kakuta finally showing what he can do this year think he can be a great player given the chance for us. Better than Sturridge ATM anyway

and to think I got him for £4m lol

thought he was a winger not an AM anyway?

Don't know if any of you read/speak German, but from what I can gather from this:

http://wap.bild.de/sport/fussball/lucas-barrios/bvb-star-wechselt-im-sommer-nach-china-23285980.bild.html

Lucas Barrios is set to leave BVB for a Chinese Super League club despite having extended his contract to 2015 with a wage rise to 6.7 million euros per year (from 2.5). He's been quoted as saying 'I'm just concentrating on Dortmund until the end of the season'.

Interesting

guardiola has shown interest in arsenal in the past and we play similar football to barca. maybe not as efficient but its similar so he'd go to us

barrios has gone right off form but that is surprising, he would do a fantastic job for Villa/everton ect

Next to barca, man Utd is the biggest job in football, Fergie will go before Wenger??

but saying that i would love to see these managers/coaches manage a lower team to see how good they really are..How would they do at Wigan for instance?

Am pretty sure I can go into the dressing room and tell these fellas at thje Nou Camp to play well and win, think thats all the team talk and tactics you need for them lol

Think thats nonsense Fan tbh. The reason they are in the big job now is because of their success with smaller clubs.......

Although maybe not so much with Guardiola but he had success working with the Barca B/youths etc.

wouldnt say nonsense really, his first high profile job was barca lol

I don't think you can speak Spanish so yes nonsense

Guardiola a little different but most top managers have worked their way up Fergie, Wenger, Mancini, Mourinho, AVB, Benitez etc.

But Pep commands respect for his playing career as well. With being a top player for Barca. So its not like their just listening to anybody.

I can speak Spanish thank you

well my certificate with Pass on it from college says i can

Jacket potato.

I don't think you can speak Spanish so yes nonsense

----------------------------------

Capello couldn't speak english and he got the England job so why couldn't Fan manage Barca, he would just have to learn.

Giggs over Nene/KPB/Rakitic

Good comparison Teejay, Fan should fire a CV off to Barca.

Would rather have Nene and KPB over Giggs and probably Rakitic too ATM

I should get barca job lol

I've been offered but had to reject

College too important LSTD?
