Pizy 18,907 Posted June 1, 2024 Share Posted June 1, 2024 Real Madrid are just boring now. They seem to play poorly every time I watch in recent years but still find ways to win each time. Opposition team need to know that you HAVE to be clinical or you stand no chance against them. If you allow them to hang around and let them off the hook with your clear cut chances they’ll ALWAYS make you regret it. It’s got to the point where it almost doesn’t even feel special when they win it anymore. Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they bought Owen from Liverpool they neglected their defense. But they have stopped doing that. Real was -relatively speaking- out of money only once in their history, late sixties - early seventies. Here is the only team in the world who -almost- mastered them: Ivic - Senteno.

Lack of league titles would be my biggest criticism of him, especially at Milan. Only one league titles with a core team of Cafu, Maldini, Nesta, Pirlo, Seedrof, Kaka, and Sheva. Greatest Championship league manager, i'll definitely give him that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have the influence on the game as someone like Guardiola does. Look at Guardiola's students managing Arsenal, Chelsea, Bayern and Leverkusen. He's changed the modern game more than Ancelotti imo as successful as he has been in winning trophies. Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
