Why many are so excited that much? Can you tell us more about this guy! Has he won something big ? Or managed a top side?
I saw few didn’t want Valverde although he won la liga and the C.L but cheer for this guy? Yes his famous interview was really top notch and he is surely has some ideas to implement but why all the fuss about?
He has done this stuff before at other clubs, and was in the process now, and has done some very exciting things. He is a very disciplined, forward thinking, manager and he was leading the Schalke team we beat. His methods, desires in football, and his desires of extraction from within a team are exactly what we lack. His focus is on the things we're lacking on, with that being:
1- Focus on set peices
2 - The transition from attack, to defence, back to attack
3 - The raised tempo of a group press without limiting creativity as he has said he doesn't advocate backwards/sideways passing
4 - Dealing with the high pressing teams as well as those who defend
He is very competent.
