Three who will be interviewed for Guardiola's position.

There was a five hour meeting at his home last night, Zubizarreta, Rosell, his agent, and Pep Guardiola.

All points to him leaving (as it has all season).

Rosell and Zubi are not capable of convincing him to stay it seems.

Manager changing in Europe always confuses me. The Special One leaves Inter right after winning the UCL. During this season there were rumors of him returning to Chelsea. Pep wins buckets of trophies and is set to leave after a decent season in which he didn't win any (unless they won a domestic cup?). Manicini and AVB seemed to be on week long contracts this season. It is just so volatile.

New challenges I would imagine. A lot of people doubt his coaching skills by saying "anyone could coach that team."

Hire McLeish and see if Barca can still be the best team in the world. This is the best way to answer the question, "Can anyone manage Barcelona?"

IF they fail under anyone else, does that validate guardiola?

Pep has already been validated. Just look at how much Barca's playing style changed going from Rijkaard to Pep.

And the results as well, arguably put together one of the best seasons in European history when they won damn near everything in 2009.

Internaut poll of FCB fans.

Bielsa, overwhelming favorite, followed by Luis Enrique.

Assistant Tito Vilanova got the gig.

Kinda entertained by the fact Cesc left us in large part to play for his idol and now his idol is gone.

La pasta.

Catalonians will be stereotypical Catalonians.








This kind of plays into the hands of the 'whomever coaches, it doesn't matter with that collection of players' mentality, doesn't it?

Will Abramovich still throw the checkbook at Pep Guardiola, or will he suck it up and keep DiMatteo?

Would be rather funny if Chelsea somehow wins the final... and then they get rid of matteo.
