Surely not?

If true, send us a few kids on loan Bobby

Fair play the waiter keeps on getting top gigs despite failing spectacularly 99% of the time ...

Thought this was a load of old pony but it seems Bobby is well thought of at Barca. Yikes.

Had Belgiums golden generation of footballers at his disposal and flopped miserably with them. If ever the term Bullsh*t baffles brains applies to anyone it's this weasel.

Up there with the very best of our managers, despite the bitterness from some.

Great for us, good manager but has fallen short

All about personal opinion and preference.

Yes , don't forget it works both ways. His footballing career was going nowhere at lowly Chester till we took a punt on him, and that's how he repaid our club , that was so close to his dear heart, by upping sticks and trying to take everything with him that wasn't nailed down. As i said , a weasel of a man, and as a manager, in my opinion, he would never have had the skill to have got us out of the championship as he can't organise a defence.

 

[Cooperman]

His managerial successes plateaued after taking Everton to 5th in the Premier League. Up to that point his stock was definitely rising, starting with what he did with us and then the cup win at Wigan.

His win percentage at international level is an astonishing 73%, however that counts for nothing when you fail to pick up any trophies.

The international scene allows managers to hide a little when things go badly, he won't get that luxury at Barca where anything less than winning La Liga is deemed as failure.

Absolutely. It's been long enough now that the bitterness over his departure has faded. The football we played under the 2 and bit seasons of his management was some of the most enjoyable I've ever watched.

Nothing about his managerial CV since would suggest he's a credible appointment for Barcelona though.

 

[SgorioFruit]

i would encourage you all to refer to him as Sir King Lord Roberto please

Comfortably within the top five. Undoubtedly.

It was a golden era football wise, and it included two never to be forgotten summer tours of the Costa Brava!
