Manchester City has spent more than £ 150m on five new players this summer, but Pep Guardiola’s biggest signature did not spend a penny – and he would not play any football.
In early June, the second most important figure of Jargon Clop-era Liverpool became the right hand man of Guardiola in Manchester City.
In fact, it should be a big news story, not at least because Pep Lijanders were hired-a person was given a significant part of the day-to-day training as well as a significant part of the Borousia dortmund after the strategic development of the German-it suggests that Guardiola is considering a major strategic overhall.
But whatever is more notable, it is that the strategic changes will be navigated with sufficient input of a coach who worked with clops on concepts such as counter-making and attacking vertical lines; On the concepts that serve as a firefighter for Guardiola’s famous status game.
This contrast often ends, mind. Guardiola and Clop borrowed from each other, and their shared peaks in Liverpool and Man City were almost merged into an ideal mix of the dynamics of the clop and the control of Guardiola.
On the one hand the clop’s ‘heavy metal’ football was nominated by appreciation of the regional dominance, using the ideas of the clop to adapt to the rough other tumble of the life of the Premier League on the other guardiola.
Nevertheless, like clops, ligaranders, aggressive, high-octane attacks with football are far more concerned than guardiola and the opportunity open when the ball changes.
So far. Because from outside, the appointment of lijnders seems to confirm Guardiola that modern Premier League football is moving towards old clopites. And that is right.
