WHO NEEDS PEP?
Everyone raves about how great Pep Guardiola was at Barcelona (he was)!
Current boss Luis Enrique has been even better – and we’ve got the proof!
First 100 games managing Barcelona:
MANAGER | W | D | L | GOAL DIFF. |
LUIS ENRIQUE | 80 | 11 | 9 | +210 |
PEP GUARDIOLA | 71 | 19 | 10 | +166 |
OFFICIALLY 0.5 BETTER!
Our experts have rated the class of 2010-11 – who won La Liga that season by four points, comfortably beating Man. United in the Champions League final AND won the Club World Cup and Spanish Super Cup – but the current crop are still better!

THE THREE AMIGOS!
No Barca team has EVER had a front three like this. Come to think of it, has ANY team ever had a more potent forward line? Check out their stats in all comps this term!
SUAREZ – 35 games/39 goals
NEYMAR – 37 games/26 goals
MESSI – 37 games/29 goals
NOTHING CAN STOP THIS MAN!
Not even a transfer ban! Barca boss Luis Enrique wasn’t allowed to sign a single player in 2015, yet he still won all this lot in his first season in charge!
La Liga, Copa Del Rey, Champions League, Super Cup, Club World Cup
