Pep Vs Cholo.
The week is leaving behind a vibrant trail of football. His dialectic of styles continues. Each team embraces its way of being with passion and each fan gets closer to the one they feel the most. The playoff thing Atlético-City it has turned out fantastic. Of course Guardiola He wanted to implicitly punish Simeone for his stingy approach in the first leg when he finely introduced the term “prehistory”. Those who know him say that after the first game the demons took him away after the 5-5-0 of the cholos. The matter goes back and was told by Guardiola himself in a Valdan Universe: “When I was in Argentinabefore training Atlético, he came to see us at Barcelona. And he told me: ‘I don’t like this, I don’t feel it.’ Simeone It took its toll after Guardiola returned, but it was no longer worth it. Deep down, he couldn’t stand having won possession over City in the second half without scoring a goal and that his colleague had protected herself by passing the round with the other football. Simeone wanted to be right: “In the end, what counts is winning.” The thing is that Guardiola has never said otherwise. What he likes the most, and what he does a lot, is win.
Julian vs. Unai.
Emery has gobbled up the ultra-offensive proposal of Nagelsmann with a fantastic mixture of order and display that rewards the race of unaithe coach who in Almeria he allowed his players to present him with strategy plays that he then put into practice in games. 15 years have passed since then. Emery has been a chameleon coach, much more offensive than many have made it out to be, but pragmatic. After two adventures that were surrounded by much more than football in Paris Y London, has returned to the origins and has triumphed again. see him face to face Klopp in the semifinals, like in that final of basel in which Sevilla was a trailer that overwhelmed the Liverpool, is going to be another fabulous counterpoint of styles. “unai is the king of cups!” Klopp exclaimed the other day in Anfield.
Xavi.
Style week ended on a Camp Nou bleached. One day after Xavi spoke about excellence in Barcathe Eintracht He repeated the display of deployment of the first leg and took the position game ahead, which is one more catechism, but not the only one. The problem with the battle of the styles is the fans of it. Those who do not accept that in the presence of the other, as in all great rivalries, is evolution. Those are prehistoric. And they don’t usually sit on the benches.
