Rijkaard nearly reduced to tears :)

[kopash]

top bloke. And good manager. He has turned around Barca's fortunes massively.

Totally agree. To undermine a manager who has won to Spanish leagues and a European cup in two seasons is madness.

He looks a man in need of a break. Looked rathered disinterested in the interview as i said months ago he'll leave at the end of the year

[animal magic]

i think he has changed his mind and will stay at barcelona

Think so after last night

Rijkaard's record in Spain is not dissimilar from our own 'messiah'.

I like him as a manager.

He is a good manager the club off the field is in a little bit of a mess

He was struggling to hold it together in his post match interview wasn't he, almost a shadow of the man that fought so finely with Rudi Voller.

I've always disliked the German national team and been a huge fan of the Dutch, but that incident was truly disgusting. He should have been banned for a long time.

more a case of being forced out than wanting to leave. Theres too many people interfering with his team in barcelona.

I like Rijkaard, but I think that the expectations and pressure of managing a team of superstars is immense when things aren't going your way. I also think that, despite pre-match interviews, everyone at Barca thought that they were going to slaughter us and last nights result (and the manner in which Barca lost) was a hammer blow. There is no doubt that FR was close to being overwhelmed emotionally, but I would have expected him to be like this at the end of the two legs, not at half time so to speak.

I think he wears contact lenses.

Could be wrong though.

Ronaldhino FFS, he should play in a circus, with his flicks and bucked tooth ugliness. Inefficient, and not worth his salt. Let him go to United.

Don't be silly, I guess NO player is allowed a dip in form eh

[kemm1]

I like Rijkaard.

Same here

Fredo's never really rated Ronaldinho though...
