Messi clearly had it with Lucho, fire him asap before the shit that has hit the fan dries and sticks forever. Best thing tonight: http://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/pitada-monumental-del-camp-nou-andre-gomes-5847979
Doesn't matter atm, anyone but Lucho, he's a poison atm, it's obvious and clear for everyone. He's done too much harm and it doesn't look like it's going to get better. But it takes balls to fire him and Bart is weak, as compared to Perez.
It's a one-man show. I feel sorry for him as he had a solid season so far but the team and to be more precise the management have failed him. With a good team and a decent manager, this best player in the history could have won UCL back to back and more. We will regret those wasted years when he retires because a player like Messi is once in a lifetime. Now watch Real winning the league, possibly the UCL and that old crippled Ronaldo who will have only 1 or 2 brilliant games will claim he is the best again.

CR7 so far only has 1 la liga title - this year would be his second one (more than likely) pretty sure when all is said and done Messi will be considered greater than Cristiano, regardless of the titles he ends up winning you could argue the best time for this club to win back to back CL titles was during the Pep years, when we were clearly the best team around but we fell short twice in SFs (to inferior teams)
CR has also 3 UCL titles and close to getting his 4th plus a prestigious NT trophy UEFA Euro 2016. Messi will never win any NT trophy with the current team and coach. Tomato, tomato so there will be always some people who will compare them and it's quite unfair. Pep's team fell short twice in UCL due to extremely bad luck, weather and ref decisions. It was unjust and cruel but has nothing to do with the team performance which was out of this world. I'm certain that if Pep had continued with Barcelona he could have won it at least 2 or 3 more times out of 5.
Couldn't agree more and this is what I've been saying for a long long time, wasted opportunities. All elements have been there except a board capable of taking this once in a lifetime opportunity to truly becoming the best club in the world. Looking at the players the team have had and what they were capable of, to me it's shame they haven't won even more trophies, I know it's been more than usual but it still could be more, especially with these talents. Instead people throw old stats and shit around to convince you that you're spoiled and should be happy with what the club has gotten. Messi is not here for his own glory, he has helped the club to achieve alot and the club has done the same for him but now the club has let him and squad down with their lack of action and determination. They are more worried to rebuild camp nou so more people can come and watch when Barca fight for Europa League place.
I get the feeling that the Pep and players (certain players) working relationship had reached breaking point
Nothing good will come out of this. If Messi is acting like that on the pitch, even when scoring two goals, then you can only expect things to get worse. It's time for Bart to do something or Barca will be fighting for a CL spot. There is no idea in trying to keep face with BS, it will all stink later anyways. Just get on with it..
Not that he relevant to the discussion as you took that part out of context but Messi won more team trophies than Maldini and by the time Messi retires it won't be even close!
