Ok but wouldn't you love to see threads titled:
"Guardiola leaves Barca, we should get him for Team Melli"
"IFF should snatch Guardiola before it's too late"
"Poll: Who is a better coach for Team Melli? Ghotbi or Guardiola?"
"Guardiola should complete his resume by taking over Iran"
"IFF in serious talks with Guardiola"
"Guardiola leaves Barcelona to coach Iran"
"Guardiola loves Iran"
and so on

It's complicated but yeah, he couldn't go to any other club in a better position than Barca. I really have to laugh at all the rumours about him and ManU. Why should he leave a club in good financial health, with a backbone consisting of Pique-Iniesta-Messi for the next 5 years and go to a club with 716 Million Pounds of debt?
But it has a lot to do with the new presidential group and players(they should do it) carrying through his ideas and if they don't, he wants to have the freedom to leave at any time.

Then again as discussed before Guardiola needs more power than being a coach as a matter of fact he want to have more votes and take over Tixiki's job as a sports director to have hands on transfers and co-ordinate the whole show while holding his current coaching position, Which to me is a very good thing for the sake of the club . I believe Laporta promised him the position and he is waiting to see what happens with the presidential election and to see what he gets and what he doesn't after the election . At lease this is my understanding of this decision unless I am wrong but I think Mahdi can say more about it
ok Im delaying on finishing my lunch(at work) until I reply here cuz couldnt hold myself back!lol
Excellent news, its great to have him on board until next season.
but,but, and plz plz dont take it personally bc I know how much you love him and what he's done for Barcelona: I disagree with your "life-long contract" suggestion. cuz first of all, Barca isnt the same FLAWLESS team as it was last season, so we'll most likely(if not surely) notice a decreased number of Trophies won by Barca this season.. bc the team and squad are just not as motivated as last season..and thats not good news for any club and coach..remember how Wenger's job was (rightly maybe!) threatened end of last season bc Arsenal was soooo crap, and players so out of motivation? well guess what? by that losing-job threat, Wenger bounced back much much stronger, actually CHANGED Arsenal's typical 4-4-2 to 4-3-3 this season, somehow managed to motivate our players a lot, and we are in to compete for EPL title this season, and Arsenal squad doesnt seem like aiming for anything less..
I hope you know what Im saying..cuz the last thing I want, is great Guardiola being victimized like Rijkaard by Barca club..bc of having 1-2 less impressive team performance/result..
lol, I beg to differ Keyvan jan! Barca is NOT head and shoulder above everyone else in Europe THIS SEASON. Unfortunately so..but Im pretty sure they have the resources, integrity and will-power to bounce back even stronger next season.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!! hahahha omg cant stop laughing at this!!! yani khoda boood Soroush!! haha thanx for the laugh! needed it a lot after a long day at work so far!!lol
Again disagreed, look how screwed up that "sport director idea, hence reduced coaching power in transfer market" has been in EPL..ie: Mark Hughes at Man City is a perfect example, and any Chelsea coach for that matter who has been in charge so far..or even Portsmouth..
On the other hand, you notice a much more improving and enhanced team success when the coach is given FULL CONTROL in Transfer market, with proper financial means of course. ie,Ferguson at ManU and Wenger at Arsenal. even if they fail miserably one season(4 seasons in Wenger's case!), these kind of managed teams/coaches will bounce back much much STRONGER the following season, bc Ferguson and Wenger have always had full control of Transfer market, hence any mistake they make, coaches are the only ones being held accountable for their mistakes(so no excuse of corrupted club management,etc as in Man City, Liverpool, RealM) and hence they'll do their BEST to prove pundits wrong and win title following season, just to prove pundits are wrong when they claim that they(Ferguson and Wenger) as legendary/smart coaches, are 'just not good enough anymore'..!

You say that they were "flawless" last season, which is simply not true. In fact, their positioning is better this season and correct me if I'm wrong, but they are still unbeaten this season, unlike last.
You say their hunger is not the same....duh...
But I would really like to see ANY team in the world after 6 trophies won fight until the very last breath in a difficult stadium and be hurt over getting knocked out in the cup no one gives a fuck about.
Besides, they could and should have rolled over Sevilla too. They did it in the home game in the league at least and should have in the cup too.
So puhlease..
Besides, with all due respect, you don't seem to understand what Guardiola means and his not only symbolic value. If you like it, he is some kind of messianic figure...at least for most players.
add a couple things to it...
imagine Gerrard coming in as coach, making every player in your squad better every day, turning some kid from the youth into the world's best player by being a good friend and telling him it's enough to beat just one opponent and no need to beat 10, turning a pale, small guy, into a leader who even tells the biggest arrogant cock in the game to shut up, holding press conferences in scouserish and english etc. etc. etc.
but like I said, it's not so much about what he did as a coach for the team. It's a lot more. He changed the culture of the club and if we win in Bernabeu, also the history forever.
And let's just say that if he didn't feel that his team is motivated, he wouldn't have extended, so what Nilou says makes even less sense.
