All we need is someone that is respected by the players. I doubt our coach for these last years since Pep did anything special, we play the same for like 10 years now.
Every time someone tries to tweak things in Barça's playstyle the media makes a fuss about it and the fans ask for his head. Tata Martino tried to implement a more direct style of football making Alexis and Pedro key players ahead of a very inexperienced Neymar, and people started crying and saying he was ignorant of the club's philosophy and wasting talent. With Luis Enrique it was the same thing... the team has played in a more counterattacking style at some points to use the speed of the front line as an advantage, which has led to 112 Liga goals so far, but it's playing boring anti-Barça football...
The best thing Luis Enrique has done for you guys is gaining authority over the players and rotating them as he saw fit without them revolting (this led to a treble, as Barça finished the season fresh while the rest of the teams were worn out). However the worst thing he has done is make some really shit signings, and then play them stubbornly to keep the rotations rolling.
