Anyone who thinks Pep has had no influence on football beyond the teams he’s managed is fuckin bonckers!
You’ve got teams trying the inverted fullbacks. Goalkeepers having to be class with the ball at their feet.
This is from Sunday league all the way up!
When did Fergie ever do that? Pep is on another level to everybody that’s come before.
I was recently watching a local team on the park playing fields. They were playing out from the back, trying to keep possession. Last time I watched this level of football it was lump the ball forward as soon as you get it. Just get rid and hope for a good bounce at the other end. Amazing really the influence Pep has had on football.
When I was a kid it was “JUST BLOODY GET RID!!!!!”
Don’t forget. “And get stuck in”
Remember POMOs. Pile passes in to the area at any opportunity.
Fucking hell it was neanderthal.
