So you're comparing Championship to EPL? Luton, a team whose stadium is not bigger than one primary school football field will probably be playing in EPL next season. Did you expect this at the start of the season?
Can you guarantee Burnley will survive EPL relegation next season with their brilliant play? The fact is that Big Sam and Pulis will only fight to stay up with the kind of team the manage.

TheGoodJoe:


Influence. Even De Zerbi is influenced by Pep Guardiola. Guardiola made it an art and many have studied his methods. Guardiola has books and videos and most of them, if not all of them are learning his methods. He changed the game.

AndSunGorilla:

Agreed, Pep is a fantastic manager. Question to you sir, is Mourinho a top Manager?

TheGoodJoe:


Can you guarantee Mourinho will win a major league title again?

TheGoodJoe:


I won't call him a top manager in the current era. Big clubs do not want him. Even if they call him, with time his tactics gets exposed and he gets kicked out.

oga football hv evolved and majority of coaches today either play gen gen pressing or tikitaka football

Stop making it seem like pep was the first to invent it. That was the same method that made Van Gaal to be highly regarded in world football. He won the ucl with a young and unknown Ajax team against star studded AC Milan in 1995 and made it to the finals of the same competition the next season but lost to juventus

So apart from Pep, who are the top managers?

My point is simple. Poor tactical play might win games and titles to earn praise. But bright tactical play leads to dominance after a long time.

Sagna worked with De Zerbi and saw his coaching methods similar to what Pep Guardiola was doing in Manchester City and pointed he was destined for the top. It is bright tactics that does this. Park bus will not lead to dominance.

Simplito.

TheGoodJoe:


Look at coaches that win leagues in the modern era. Mourinho last won a league title in 2015.

typicalgamer:


With all the tactics guardiola couldn’t win a champions league with Bayern

Jupp took over and done it in a single season now who’s a better coach ?

Mind you Bayern doesn’t need guardiola to win the league and it’s local trophies.

Stop a$$licking

No matter how pretty your football is you’ll eventually face a drought period like everyone else

Ask recent Barcelona or Ajax these are top high possessions teams that has been turned into crumps

You as a head coach won’t be there forever so your philosophy won’t be there for ever either.
Unless it’s been built from the ground up.


10 years after pep city won’t play this type of ball
Bayern changed style instantly as pep left

typicalgamer:


Mourinho has never coached a side who stands a chance of winning the league in recent years so rest
If he does that’s over achieving from his part

TheGoodJoe:


There is a difference between total football and modern day tiki taka. Guardiola brought tactical inventions that led to its success.

To start with, Van Der Sar at Ajax was not exchanging passes with defenders the way Ederson, Ter Stergen, and Valdes did/do. It was Guardiola that made it key in recent games.

Invention, invention. No one said he is the first possession coach. Heck, he is a disciple of Johan Cruyff. However, his invention revolutionized the game and made it a modern art.

Finito.

Papi85:


De Zerbi, Arteta, Xavi, Enrique, Ten Hag, Alonso

benji93:
If you didn't know better you would think Zidane was an assistant coach to Guardiola for at least a year, whereas he was only there for a three-day visit alongside other French coaches. When he was interviewed he hailed the top management of the club first, which means he admired the organization. Zidane did not learn anything from Guardiola. If I can learn enough from someone in three days to win three consecutive CL, how many do you think that someone should have?

Gbam!
You do know the like of Arteta, Kompany and Xabi have their own inventions too right? So why are you making it all Pep?

TheGoodJoe:


Champions League is not the only title. Count trophy winning in recent years and you will see that Mourinho can't even eat off the crumbs of Guardiola.

Four EPL in five years and going for the fifth one with Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool in the league. Haba.

We will play Pep-ball because we are raising a team of coaches of Guardiola. If Kompany coaches us, what style would we play? Pep style. What of De Bruyne, and Gundogan doing their badges?

TheGoodJoe:


Because he has fallen off due to his poor tactics.

mostob:
When last did your Pep won any Continental title with his modern football?

mostob:
He will be playing Europa final with his poor tactics unlike Xabi, the tikitaka master and Pep's student whom Mourinho oust.

TheGoodJoe:


How many of your continental managers can win titles like Pep. Pep pursues loads of titles season in, season out. This lead to players exhaustion and can cause them to lose semi finals or finals. That does not change how remarkable Pep has been.

Winning all domestic trophies in one season. No manager in epl has done it. Respect is deserved.

Pep has won champions league. None has done what Pep has done when it comes to football dominance.

typicalgamer:


Answer me this was guardiola time at Bayern a success or not ?

typicalgamer:


Chase everything and end up like arsenal

Not thanks

TheGoodJoe:


I have used the word influence repeatedly. INFLUENCE, INFLUENCE.

I never said it is all Pep. I said Pep influenced them and led the revolution.

Haba.

TheGoodJoe:


Mourinho won by hiding because he knows he can't stand Xabi Alonso tactically. That is why he chose Sam Allardyce football.
