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.
You know what, that’s a fair assessment.
But then that leads me to a question for you, where do you get good football discussion?
The Athletic? Statman Dave? RabonaTV?
