Like i said he has not spent mone cause he did not need too. But like you say not any manager can manage a succesful team and he did.
Even when he let the top players go he still managed to keep Barca a Success. Not saying he will do that with us or he will come to us. We maybe better getting klopp. But id never say no to Pep he had done amazing.
Villa, Alves, Chygrinski, Mascherano, Ibrahimovic, Cáceres all pretty big transfers if you ask me on top of an already great squad.
He's done well, don't like his style of football though and think that he's had plenty of money to spend as well, for me though he's another Wenger in a sense he won't change something as was proved against Chelsea as they kept trying to play through the middle and had no alternative to a tactic which wasn't working too well against 10 men.
He bought success.
Pretty clear to everyone
Rikjard bought those these they were there before pep got there. he has spent money but not much.
Nope, they were all bought by Guardiola:
2008–09 season
In association with Barça's director of sport, Txiki Begiristain, several new signings were made by Guardiola: Daniel Alves and Seydou Keita arrived from Sevilla, Martín Cáceres from Villarreal by way of Recreativo, Gerard Piqué returned from Manchester United, and Alexander Hleb was signed from Arsenal. Henrique was also signed from Palmeiras, but was immediately loaned out to Bayer Leverkusen.[18] In interviews with the press, Guardiola stressed a harder work ethic than before, but also a more personal approach during training and a closer relationship with his players. Along with the new signings, Guardiola promoted canteranos Sergio Busquets, Pedro Rodríguez and Jeffrén Suárez to the first team squad. His influences as a coach include mostly Johan Cruyff, but also Louis van Gaal, Juan Manuel Lillo and Marcelo Bielsa.
2009–10 season
During Guardiola's second season as manager Barcelona traded Samuel Eto'o and €49 million for Zlatan Ibrahimović. The club also signed Maxwell from Internazionale and Dmytro Chygrynskiy from Shakhtar Donetsk. Many players left the club on the same transfer window; Eiđur Guđjohnsen was sold to Monaco, Sylvinho and Albert Jorquera's contracts ended and other players were loaned out, including Alexander Hleb to Stuttgart, Martín Cáceres to Juventus, Alberto Botía to Sporting de Gijón and Víctor Sánchez to Xerez.

Even so he still has not splashed out loads like the guy at Madrid.
Most of Peps players have come from the youth system even when he sold the top players they were still succesful. Id like to see if Jose Sold Madrids top players and playing with players from the youth team how well he'd do.
Joses hardly spent much
Nonsense, he's spent loads...Ibrahimovic alone cost a small fortune as did Villa and Cesc.
He's spent plenty that's a fact.
Pep bought them
