Sport 360 – 5 years have passed since the last coronation For Barcelona With a title Champions LeagueAnd, many believe that the team entered the decline stage from that moment, season after season, until it reached an unfortunate defeat against Bayern Munich that will remain immortal in the history of football for decades.
“A team that has Lionel Messi is always the favorite to win the Champions League title,” this is the opinion of Pep Guardiola, the Manchester City coach always, but we discovered later that he was wrong every time he repeated these words, because the flea alone could not win the most important and difficult title if There was no integrated system.
It was the first hit For Barcelona When he lost to Juventus by 3 goals in the quarter-finals and deposited the tournament, and a year later, he was slapped by Roma in the second leg in a match that is still controversial today, and in a replica scenario, the matter was repeated the following year at Anfield Road against Liverpool, and finally the knockout came That literally divided the club’s back with the Al-Nour Stadium scandal, and was an official announcement of the end of the Barca golden era.
During the period of the gradual collapse of Barcelona, the team passed through many coaches, the first of which was Luis Enrique, who clashed with the players in the beginning, then succeeded in unifying the dressing room in and leading the team to win the Champions League title, taking advantage of the abilities of the terrifying trio Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar .
Enrique did not succeed in repeating the same success in the subsequent Moussin due to the decline in the level of some players, and the presence of endless administrative problems, whether with the announced deals or what happens behind the scenes, but the team entered another stage of losing identity after the arrival of Ernesto Valverde, who presented us with a copy of Barça. On them in the past decade.
Barcelona with Valverde is no longer attractive at all, and has lost the advantage of high pressure and a part of the tiki-taka, and the percentage of possession of the ball has clearly decreased, and with the continuous failures in the Champions League, and surprise defeats in the local championships as well, Bartomeu’s management decided to hold him fully responsible, And announced his dismissal and the contract with Quique Setien after Xavi Hernandez refused to train the team in these chaotic circumstances.
Barcelona’s management brought the team to a literally deplorable state, as it concluded more than one deal to compensate Neymar, all of which did not succeed, and got involved in some scandals that to this day have not been able to prove their innocence with them, and Lionel Messi has become the entire team system, not part of the system as it was in the past. .
Finally, Kiki Setien, who coached the team for only six months, during which he failed to make any progress, on the contrary, increased chaos in the dressing room, and the relationship between the players and management was further severed, and the old man did not succeed in imposing his control on the team at all.
