Roberto De Zerbi has been described as one of the most influential managers of the last 20 years, by none other than Pep Guardiola.
He has been commended for his coaching in the lower leagues of Italian football, Ukraine, and now in the Premier League with Brighton & Hove Albion. But considering his only major trophy win came in Ukraine for Shakhtar Donetsk, should he really be regarded as one of the best?

    I agree. But! It’s because they can do that! What I mean is that their “lack of ambition” ie that they don’t want to be top team (yet!) they look to buy players like Caceado and then flog him. Lots of teams are after the same players as Brighton it’s just Brighton can offer them regular footie on a massive ‘shop window’ trip.

    As a Leeds fan, he reminds me a lot of Bielsa (understandably given he trained with him), which honestly is some of the highest praise a Leeds fan can give xD But his tactics are a little different, and that idea of essentially using transitional / counter attacking tactics without having to lose the ball has clearly been really effective.

  • @James-zj2ms
    @James-zj2ms7 ай бұрын

    8:35 They also bait the press by playing intentionally square passes. Square pass is a pressing trigger for a lot of teams, at which point it invites them to break a line and play through. They quite often ‘hide’ a pivot player behind that press so that after the line is broken they can set the ball to the pivot player and they’ve played through the press. It’s brilliant

    I dont think he’ll live up to the messi/villa expectation. But i see more of a Jack Grealish x2. If he can learn to incorporate possesion to dribbling prowess. We could see grealish if he actually took on his opponent and then had an extra finish factor. Doubt he’ll stay at brighton. City, Chelsea, and maybe United if ten hag stays

    Beware of Guardiola paying you a lot of compliments - he won't do this if he sees you as a genuine threat. He's happy to lavish praise on coaches that play football the 'right' - i.e. his - way so long as they are managing at clubs that aren't on his team's level. Soon as you're considered a serious challenger to him though the nice words will stop.
