    The main thing that fascinates me about him is him being a gentleman, always. Even after defeats vs. Real, Chelsea, Inter, he's still a gentleman, congratulating his opponent, never blaming the refereree, or someone's playing style. He's your best image to the outside world you can have as a club I guess.

    Yes, yes, and yes. And that's exactly what makes him the best coach out there. Mourinho's tactics might be better and Fergusson might have stronger presence, but Guardiola surpasses them all, because he's a gentleman in and out the field, and towards his friends and opponents. Bravo for him. I will truly regret if he leaves today...
  2. at least he has the good taste not to complain about the referees .. god forbid
    tell Drogba, Thiago Motta, Nesta just naming some

    lots of skeletons in the closet at Barca too
  4. Jumped the ship before it sank. Shame he can't take Messi with him wherever he goes. Messi would play in another team the same way Messi plays for Argentina...

    Hope Chelsea don't get him because Roberto Di Matteo has done a brilliant job since taking over from AVB. Would be a real kick in the teeth for Di Matteo. Deep down he must think he deserves the job despite saying he isn't going to get it.
  5. He already mentioned that he will take some time off, main reason for him leaving is to get some rest. 4 years takes it's toll, pressure and hard work every day.

    Villanova, his assistent, will be the new coach. Which seems like a fairly good choice given the circumstances. He has worked with Guardiola for quite some time.
  6. Villanova is the new coach of Barcelona, although Im getting a bit tired of Barcelona (diving, asking for cards and their domination) I really the way they do this. They dont search for a coach from outside, they just get somebody from inside so they dont have to change a lott and they could just go on the same way and keep the same culture as always.
    If you ask me thats the way clubs have to do it. If you just look at a clubs like Inter and Chelsea (No offence Ronnie ) they normally get a coach from the outside, that means they have to change their playing style, trainingstyle and the players and coach need to get used to eachother.
  7. Guardiola speaks perfect Spanish, Català, English and Italian, and defends himself on Franch and Arabic (he played at Qatar some time). Not bad.

    In all honesty, Chelsea are worse than Barcelona for diving. It isn't just Drogba (who is just ridiculous in my eyes); Ramires, Mata and Cole have a shot at it sometimes too.
  10. Every team has players who dive and players who like a fight. Barça just has a little less than the rest (only Busquets and Alves are despicable in that sense), and a lot more of honourable players like Iniesta, Messi, Xavi, etc.
  11. Of course, but I'm just saying that Chelsea do it excessively, and really, there's no need in it.

  12. Will he be coach next season?

    And Kieran in the last 2 matches between Barca and Chelsea it was mainly Drogba who dived. But like Sergio says in almost every team there are a couple of players who dive or fight (Robben, Ribery for example and Real too)
