Strong rumours/stories going around he is set to step down as Barca coach

Tito Vilanova has a recession on his illness (tumor). Barcelona will give more information during the day

Would be terrible news if true, he has done really well this season. I wonder if they could tempt Pep to come back until the end of the season?

I didn't realise he had be ill previously. Hope his recovery goes smoothly.

Given how far they're out in front, they can probably do without a manager for the rest of the season. Just give Messi the player-manager job so he can add to his tally in the record books.

Hope he gets well soon. Best of luck, Tito.

They like our players so much. Hopefully they'll lure Wenger over January 1st. 🙂

I am not sure football is the best place for a sick man.
We should do an exchange. Send Wenger over there, and bring Pep in.
I would like to see Wenger managing good players again. See if there are any lapses in defence, misuse of players, etc.

Not like Barcelona need much of a manager anyway.

The FC Barcelona is in immense mourning. Tito Vilanova has died at the age of 45. May he rest in peace

RIP Tito Vilanova, just heard yesterday that he had a relapse and had been admitted into hospital but didn't see this coming.

Fucking awful news. Thought he discovered his cancer very early and was fully expecting a full recovery from him.

RIP

Don't know why, but I always assumed he'd be ok.

RIP.
