Are Barca imploding?

[BoomAM]

Hi.
How does everyone here view the situation at Barca at the moment?
They're not doing too bad, but with critisism coming from everywhere, players unhappy, lack of training, ect; it looks a bit dodgy.

This is what ive heard upto now:
-Rijkard not getting on with some of the bigger players in the team.
-Xavi not happy because he's not getting played.
-Ronny not happy because his contract hasnt been renewed, a year after being promiced, and thus, has aparentely agreed terms with Milan, and is waiting for the teams to sort out the rest of it.
-Lack of decent forwards, with both Eidur & Saviola being very inconsistant.
-Messed up training schedule.
-Predictable play.
-Accusations of 'no more hunger' from the team to win anymore.
-Rijkard needing to be replaced with someone who can take the team in a new direction.

I dont personally see where the critisisms are coming from tbh, their still in the title race, still in the cup, and still in the CL.

Whats all your opinions?
Are they in crysis? Will Ronny goto Milan? Will Xavi goto ManU? Will Messi goto Inter? Eto'o off as well?

I forget his name but apparently the assistant manager from last year was the real brains of the operaton and a lot of people expected them to be weaker this season following his departure.

I heard that as well. He went to manage Ajax didnt he? or PSV. One of the two IIRC.

As good a manager Rijkaard is, i'd prefer to have Ronny over Rijkaard.
But then again, i dont think Ronny+Kaka would work.

Anyway, back to topic:
I would not be suprised to see the current Barca team dismantled over the next season or two, completely overhalled. With the money they'd get for their big stars alone, like Ronny & Xavi, they could feasibly rebuild the team. The key for Barca if they do that though, is keeping their young talent, like Messi & Iniesta.

I really doubt Ronny would go to AC Milan. AC Arn't a big team any more these days, their side is too old to compete and radically need an overhaul.

Careful.
Only the backline.
The midfield and strikers are still young.

Watching sky-sports news this morning I heard a rumour that Chelsea would pay 50million to bring Ronny in

Pah! Lightweights Chelsea are!
Rumors have been circling of him already agreed terms with Milan, and that Gallani willing to goto 100m!
Although if he's got 100m to spend, i'd rarther him get Barzagli, Kompany, Oddo & Torres instead. Because he'd still have change spare then.

I didnt think he trained with the team all the time anyway?
I think at least he, if not all their team, has just lost motivation. Lets face it, they've won everything, prehaps they need (want?) a new challenge?
