Do you agree with Capello? (Regarding Pep)

[ArniArason]

I'm sad to say, I do agree on some parts

Not sure about the 'damaging' football bit or arrogance though.

But certainly this bit

"Why are you going to watch 90 minutes of passes and horizontal passes without fighting, without running." - This pretty much sums up yesterday's game

Absolute fucking bollocks from the worst England Manager of all time.

First of all he's won 3 Champions Leagues, 2 were down to him creating the false 9 role for Messi which was the catalyst for the best football team to ever exist ever. The best united team ever assembled couldn't touch the fucking ball. He also changed to a 4 CB system the year we won it which completely turned our season on its head. In February we were fucking shite and we won the treble in May.

Not sure how teams in Italy trying to play possession football has anything to do with Pep.

I think this Postman Pat looking **** can fuck right off and so can you for sharing it and saying you agree with every word!

 

[bluetonium]

No, I don't.

So you disagree that Pep hasn't thrown away some of our biggest games by overthinking and trying to be too clever?

Seems a lot of people have very short memories.

Pep’s won nothing - in the most competitive leagues in the world has he …… oh, wait a minute, let me check again

I'm sad to say, I do agree, on almost every point...

There only seems to be two points first that he is arrogant because he tries something different.

Second that he ruined Italian football(where he's never managed) because people copy him.

Don't watch Italian football very much, sometimes his changes work, sometimes not. I don't really agree with him.

 

[Alvin-blue-qhd]

I believe what we should pursue is a form of "micro-control." We can afford to lose possession, and we can have attacks with only 3 to 5 touches, just like other teams. As long as we can achieve greater finesse and precision in every duel, it still represents a style of football that emphasizes technical skill.

Is the correct answer.

Sometimes. Nowhere near as many games as he's won for us

 

[Platt Lane veteran]

Not reading that shite, from a manager who has never had the bottle to try his trade in the PL.

That would mean that he agrees that Pep has thrown away some of our biggest games…..

Or have I overthought it & tried to be too clever? ;)

 

[ArniArason]

For those getting fired up thinking this is an attack on Pep, or questioning what he has or hasn't won, it isn't.

He is undoubtedly the best manager the world has seen, a true genius, but all geniuses have flaws. I think Pep has a tendency to over think and over compensate for things he thinks aren't perfect.

I just thought this would spark and interesting debate.

Care to elaborate on that point?

 

[BringBackSwales]

This coming from an ex England manager who was less successful than gareth fucking southgate

 

[ArniArason]

100% agree

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Basically "he's better than me. I don't like that".

 

[Gazza]

Let's go back ten years and think, who's the better prospect for next City manager, shall we get Pep Guardiola or Fabio Capello?

Capello isn't a patch on Pep, however, he is entitled to an opinion, which we are entitled to disagree with.

 

[skillman]

Ridiculous bangwagon to jump on. He's the best manager of his time and has proved himself to be time and time again. And will again in the future.
