Yep, me too. Heynickes or Klopp could be perfect, AVB if Bale go to United.... Anyway we will see, he can not be worst than Tito, or Roura....

Why does it have to be someone famous and highly achieved? Time passes and new managers come and go. Some are better than others and some are, well let's say unluckier than others. But just because someone is uknown it doesn't mean somone's bad at their job. So, just wait and see what happens.
Maybe the next Mou / Pep / Klopp or even SAF?

Agree, but Europeen experience is important we don't have the time to wait for him to adapt, he's obliged to doit quickly or he will leave, im waiting to see, for me even Luis Enrique is better than Tito.
It can't be a bad news for Barça...

You guys should've gotten Marcelo Bielsa. He's unemployed right now, and has plenty of experience in Europe (he led Athletic to the Europa League final). What's more is that Pep is rumored to have gotten a lot of his techniques from Bielsa. And of course, Bielsa has immense faith in his youngsters, something that Tito lacked. Bielsa shaped his game around Muniain, Herrera, and De Marcos, three incredibly young and talented players. Even when Barca had already won the league, Tito was more concerned about hammering his opposition than giving the youngsters more playing time.
But, I guess that it's FCB's board's decision in the end. I just felt that Bielsa would've been a brilliant pick out of the box. :/

Bielsa would beperfect.
from Marca:
Despite not being amongst the favourites to take over the reins at Barça following Tito Vilanova's departure, the fans' preference is Marcelo Bielsa. The former Athletic de Bilbao manager would be the first-choice option for 37.6% of the online readers who took part in the poll at MARCA.com.
The Argentine manager, who is currently without a club, leads second-placed Luis Enrique (27.4%) by 10%, ahead of another Argentine, 'Tata Martino' - the current favourite to take over as first-team coach - who only received 11.9% of the votes.
Other candidates like Michael Laudrup (9.1%), André Villas-Boas (7%) or Rubí (7%), the former Girona manager currently working with Barça's coaching staff, all received fewer votes. Almost ten thousand online readers took part in the MARCA.com poll.

Tactics and reputation make up for lack of European experience.
Barcelona’s new coach Gerardo Martino built a great Paraguay side and a Newell’s Old Boys championship winning team that brought back memories of Bielsa.
The closest Gerardo Martino (nicknamed ‘Tata’, though even he doesn’t know why) has been as a coach to Spanish football was during the 2010 World Cup in 2010. His Paraguayan side were the revelation of the qualifying stages and were on the point of putting Spain out in Johannesburg. A tough team with good tactical awareness they pushed Del Bosque’s team to the very end. As well as bringing back memories of Villa’s goal, after a marvellous run from Iniesta, it’s worthwhile remembering that Paraguay, amongst other things, had a good enough tactical game to force a Piqué penalty which would have given them the lead if Iker hadn’t saved from Cardozo. Nelson Haedo Valdez also had a goal ruled out and Casillas appeared once again to save the game in extremis with a double save at the death. That match is a decent calling card for Martino.
Barcelona, who in recent seasons have relaxed on the tactical side, will once again have a coach who is a firm believer in tactical method. Different and a long way from the Dutch school which has so influenced Barcelona, but tactical nonetheless. Paraguay was one of the most respected teams in South America for the football they played in the qualifying phase.
It’s impossible to separate Tata, idol of Newell’s Old Boys (voted their greatest ever player by the fans) from Marcelo Bielsa. It was under Bielsa that he won the famous ‘Newell’s carajo!’ league (having won the title Bielsa was seen shouting ‘Newell’s carajo!’, ‘Come on Newell’s!’) and was close to winning the Libertadores. Martino was the leader on the pitch. Bielsa was his influence on the touchline as he played 509 games. By then he was a mature footballer. One of the people he made most happy was Jorge Messi, father of Leo, a fervent fan of Newell’s, as he brought back the glory days to the club, and did it playing good football. Martino follows in the footsteps of Bielsa, and just like him, he nearly won the Libertadores. Tata got to the semi-finals (Bielsa, the final) to great acclaim. While Martino is somewhat more mathematical than the more ornate Barça style of late that doesn’t mean he doesn’t like the ball. In fact, it forms a large part of his play-book.
Methodical and studious he has declared himself in interviews a firm fan of the Barcelona of Guardiola: “This Barça side are a reference point. Argentineans are too worried about winning”. Tata, who as a player passed through Tenerife under Indio Solari has said he would find it difficult to talk to Messi: “When I see him so on top of everything, knowing pretty much everything about football, it’s hard to imagine him back here”. Martino, who started coaching at Almirante Brown de Arrecifes won titles in Paraguay with Libertad and Cerro Porteño. He’s also been a winner in Argentina, with Newell’s Old Boys, where he put his own recognisable stamp on a team applauded throughout Argentina and South America.
Martino doesn’t have experience in Europe but he does have enough credentials to mitigate the scepticism that will greet his appointment. He’s built good football teams. Compared to the clubs where he has played and coached Barcelona is enormous and that is his great challenge: how to adapt to a historic club of the size of Barça while convincing the players that he’s got what it takes. Tata is a colloquial way of saying Dad or Grandad in parts of Latin America.

ZUBIZARRETA AND SANLLEHÍ GO TO BUENOS AIRES
Barcelona has already decided who will replace Tito Vilanova as its first-team coach. Gerardo Tata Martino, who is not currently managing a team, is the Catalan Clubs first-choice. In fact, Andoni Zubizerreta and Raúl Sanllehí are flying to Buenos Aires tonight to meet with the former coach of Newells Old Boys in an attempt to agree a deal as soon as possible, although both parties have already made first contact and negotiations are well on track.
The Argentine coachs cause is supported by Leo Messi and the Argentinian press believe Andoni Zubizarreta and Raul Sanllehí will travel to the country for talks, after initial contact was made earlier.
Martinos Newells Old Boys side took South America by storm due to its attractive playing style and nobody can deny his great work for the Paraguay national team. I can identify with Barcelonas style of football. Im an admirer of the great work done by Guardiola. This is the style I like the most. Passing is what football is all about, he told MARCA.
Leo Messi has stated his admiration for his compatriot on more than one occasion: I like Tata Martino. He s a great manager, Messi told Diario Olé a few months ago.
Celta de Vigo denied yesterday any interest in Luis Enrique and sources consulted at the club said that there had been no phone calls from Barça.The same sources went on to add that they have total trust in the managers commitment and the potential departure of the manager and his coaching team would cost Barcelona several million euros.
Why not recruiting a Europeen coach ? Barças choices in terms of coaching are unpredictible as usual, i don t know much about him, he was born at the same town of Messi Rosario, Coincidence ?? Can someone who knows argentinian league tell me if hes good ? Whats your impressions ?
