A Liga trophy followed eight months later, one that restored winning ways but papered over some clear cracks in his side. Yes, Barca were good enough defensively to win the league, but their attacking quality was lacking. This was not the La Masia-bred, Cruyffian, Pep Guardiola football that Xavi had promised. This was a Jose Mourinho-esque side that grinded out results.
Imo the league is ripe for the picking for them again. Madrid don’t have a striker who can score goals and are potentially one win away from faltering. Don’t think Girona can keep pace while Atleti I don’t think are good enough but we will see.
Who is to say that City group wont reinforce Girona using players from one of their other teams? Its the reason Girona are where they are to begin with.
One win away from faltering?
Injury my bad…don’t think there was ever a win away from faltering lol!
