Pep Guardiola did a great deal of damage, believes the famous Italian

The famous Italian football coach Fabio Capello is for a Catalan sports diary El Mundo also curtailed Pepa Guardiolo And his insistence on the gaming philosophy with the highest possession of the ball.

“I respect him, but I don’t like his arrogance. After Barcelona, ​​he led Bayern and Manchester City, but won the Champions League with City because he did not do the tests, putting players in positions that did not suit them, so that he could say. ‘Look, because of me the club wins, not because of the players.’ This arrogance cost him some victories in the Champions League, « 78-year-old Furlan from Skocjan ob Soci told Catalon. But Guardiolo also ranked among the three « revolutionaries ».

“In my life, I have seen three revolutions in football, every about 20 years. He first derived Rinus michels with Ajax’s total football, another Arrigo Sacchfrom Milan, the third Guardiola with Barcelona. « 

Capello also blamed Guardiola’s game style for great damage to Italian football. “In Italy, goalkeepers are now running the ball and this is a disaster. The decade have been spent to imitate the game with endless giving, which has led it to its distinctive features, many duels and running. Thankfully, football is changing. Spain was European champion because she played quickly and with two winger strikers, « was the honest Capello, who coached Guardiola at Roma for a short time, revealing that they quickly cleared the conversation when he started talking to him, » What, how and why. «  » He ran too little. I just told him to run more, and then could I talk about how I should do my job. It was immediately the end of the debate, « said European champion with Milan in 1994. It was precisely in the finals in Athens that his red and blacks swept with Cruijff Barcelona (4: 0).
