Tbh, e surprise me say Xavi dey lament, especially as he's a so called disciples of Guardiola.

Check it out, Most Guardiola students never ever take any game as "friendly".

And that's because, Pep never see it as one.

I'm surprised really!

I think Arteta upped the physicality after the United game and I love that.

Available for gunners 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Oldboss:

Xavi no be Guardiola disciple oo he was never a assistant to Guardiola he play like this cause that's how he knew football

Lol, I remember last season when all who were in one way or the other connected to Pep was doing well(and topping their respective leagues) and they also included Xavi and Kompany in the list.

Even though I was against it(cos they didn't work with Pep) but most barca fans were adamant he was. I'm just surprised to see one(you) saying he isn't.

That good

Yeah, he even said so after Man u post match conference and that he'll be ready for Barca in terms of intensity. And even though Man u were physical against us, he didn't even lament about it but said it was good for the boys to get upto speed.

It's surprising seeing Xavi saying such sha

What's a barca counter attack to madrid's counter... Does barca even play counter attacking football.
See the match against man.u and knw what counter attack is...
even bayern's counter attack seems deadlier than barca's.

Blueray they have come for you
I like you but you are on your own bro

Today is jumaah oloyin

Yea, he went into that United game with a friendly in mind but United carry another thing for mind with tackles flying everywhere. Well, Na Barcelona come suffer am. This team has improved in terms of physicality. Some of our players have bulked up and are strong on the ball.

That’s true ..

I hope Arteta surpass his legacies in Arsenal

Let's count it for them na

Oya... congratulations to them. Make Dem use that one hold body till next year.

Shegzdave:

If he can score more beautiful goals like like consistently, he’ll be praised and his lack of physicality will be overlooked.

You’re right about Rice being aggressive but none of them is like Xhaka, Iffa hear Zichenko , Saliba Na soft boy joor.. only Gabriel comes close, Someone even said he dhould take up that responsibility from Xhaka cause I don’t like the way Martinez was acting like an unrefined tout in our last friendly match

I get you bro... But face can be deceiving at times. Shey we no go bring back Gabriel Paulista like this. The guy na proper agbero just that he no dey do am with sense.

Only way he would do that in my books is to bring the UCL trophy to the Emirates.

Did Pep work with Cryuff as an assistant?

Well Xavi football style is nothing compare to what Guardiola is doing even during our prime year. against your team we hardly dominated the game even last season we used a lot of counter attack/fast transition on team. Every body has thier opinion sha

Ok this retaining of ball possessions was started by Cryuff. Doesn't mean every body that' want to play that way is a student.
Arsene Wenger was playing the same pattern of football does it also mean he is a student of Cruyff?

Who dey follow EBL and MIT analysis on Twitter. Those two are boss abeg.

No, ball possession was not started by Cruyff. It was total football that Cryuff implemented and "students" of Johan, took some aspects of total football and executed it in their own way. That is what made them his students: the fact that they studied his way of playing and used it as a template for their teams.

And Wenger did not play total football per se. But that's talk for another day.

Total Football ball was started in1970 by the Dutch team Finish Michele team and not by Cryuff he was a student His obsession with possession led him to develop a model based on triangles which Pep change to tic taka

Yes because Cruyff was a student of Rinus like Pep was a student of Cruyff. Nobody did copy +paste.

Besides, Wikipedia will mislead if they are your only source of research. Tiki taka just means give me I give you. What Pep did with Cruyff's system is he made it more about the positions players take rather than their fixed role. In Cruyff's as was in Rinus' the players advanced the ball together but in short possessions and movement. Pep made it more dynamic.

The point is, one can also argue he was not a student of Cruyff since he never worked as an assistant. What makes manager's create their own lane is what the system is built on. Klopp copies Pep as well but nobody calls him Pep's student because his core was not built on the same positional play even though he stole other elements out of it.

That is why Arteta, Ten Hag, Xabi Alonso, Xavi, Kompany etc are STUDENTS of Pep.

You do know some of Pep's idea are from these so-called students right?

I saw this. I don't blame Turner. We need someone who can really challenge Ramsdale. Raya is OK.

There are aspects of coaching that coach learn from each other. However, a student remains a student and a rabbi a rabbi.

Pep may have learnt one or two things from Arteta, but Arteta remains his student.

The one he is currently coaching, those he has coached before and those that have worked as his assistant.
