It's about body of work. This isn't about Bravo or Bony or any individual terrible player purchase. That shit happens. However Txiki has wasted mountain of money on players of of mostly poor to average level. It's NOT just that though. He took very balanced squad with world class performers all over the pitch that basically only needed little spicing for that CL push owners want and turned that into team we have right now with holes all over. Yet it's not even just that. He clearly doesn't realise that our defence is in awfull state and has done nothing to help the situation. He is stuck in formula that worked in Barcelona where he had Xavi, Iniesta and Messi fall to his lap.
Txiki has failed at his job and he has been given enough time. If he had any sense he'd resign.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
