He’s jumped off the boat when Barca and Bayer were sinking..?
In his last season at Barca he won the Spanish and European Super cup’s, the world club championship and the copa-del-rey. They made it to the champions league semi final’s and finished 2nd behind a 100 point Real.
His last season at Bayern, he won the league and cup double and again made it or the CL semi’s
No team, or manager, has EVER won every single trophy on offer, but going by statistics alone, pep is one of, if not the highest on the list of “trophy to games” manager’s in the history of football.
Maybe the players don’t get it, or can’t keep up with his intensity after a prolonged period, but don’t state he’s left sinking ships, because that is not true.
In his last season at Barça he didnt win Liga he didnt win Champions. Both are the biggest cups.
It was a failure according to that great team. It was a failure for that club and for him.
He is a guy disproportionately demanding and exacting. Being demanding and exacting is good, but being an extremist is not good.
In that year he hatred Piqué and Cesc Fábregas. Both guys are typical immature kids, sometimes not serious in their discipline. For him Carles Puyol is the exemple (seriously disciplined, manly character and not childish character...)
To leave it was a punishment for the team, especially for that both players, who he couldnt put up with. He even would have wanted to hit them physically.
Pep is too idealistic. All of us have some undisciplined and lazy colleagues in our jobs.
Also he can't understand the typical "chav" player, the typical player with a chav life, chav spirit, chav way even celebrating goals. The football is playing in the street. A lot of good players are players because they never studied, in his infancy they were on the street all day with the ball.
And he hate that, he doesn't understand that, and me and you can understand that Wayne Rooney will never recite to you "A midsummer night's dream", and we can understand that Wayne go crazy for silicone tits and lips girls, and that he smokes some cigarettes sometimes...
When a part of the team lose their intensity, he gets angry. Same in Munich about Champions League performances.
He feels ashamed. He can't look into the eyes of the Manchester City fans if he makes a ridiculous season. He just can look into the eyes of the Manchester City fans if he wins. It's just that or depart.
