iseah100 5,612 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 A bit off topic but Tuchel is showing Klopp up a bit here, revitilising Miki and Reus by shifting their positions and Miki looks like the LW role was made for him. Klopp may have got a bit lazy in his last season which has tainted his reputation somewhat. Still a World Class manager though and whichever team picks him up will have got a great player and a great character (hopefully not Liverpool or Arsenal).Well, Tuchel has only a few games. But, they have played well and teams often get revitalized under a new manager. Kagawa looked good as well yesterday (minus missing a sitter). Klopp is still a great manager like you said and a great motivator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chels 2,502 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I love watching the intensity, work-rate and organisation of Simeone's Atleti. Even with all the constant incomings and outgoings they remain extremely well disciplined. Doing simple things like creating an overload on the wing or getting a cross into the box against them is very difficult, let alone creating clear cut chances.As someone who really enjoys watching a team fight for every single ball and truly stifle the opposition (as opposed to passive defending, allowing overloads, relying on wastefulness from the opposition and GK MOTM performances like we do now) Simeone would be my choice if/when Mourinho leaves. That said, I think it would be fair to say many people would be against his appointment because of his defensive style and similarities to Mourinho, even though they are tactically very different (as has been noted by the likes of Tiago, Luis, Costa, Courtois).

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Every manager struggles. They played beautiful football in 2011-2013.Tbf they had Gotze, Lewandowski, Reus, fully fit Kuba and fully fit Bender/Gundogan, along with fully fit defense for most of those 2 seasons. Any half decent manager who cannot get their team to play good football with that deserves to get sacked. Then again our current team now on paper is just as good as that and Jose isn't really doing a great job of helping us playing attacking football, the Aug-Dec period last year seems to be more exception than the norm. iseah100 and zolayes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is understandable though given that they lost some of the 13-14 side's key components and were stuck with players like Mandzukic and Siqueira, who clearly didn't fit Simeone's ideology. I have high expectations for them this season though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
