Where does he rank among the GOAT managers?
Where does he rank among the GOAT managers?
Until he wins the CL with someone other than Barca I'd stick him in the "great" tier.
A cross between Ancelotti and Bielsa
bout tree fiddy
Above Moyes and below Houllier
Just right after klopp
Top 5. If he wins a WC he will be the GOAT
>implying the likes of Poop or Mouyes will ever manage NTs
It's too boring, literally nothing to do most of the year and elite managers enjoy day-in day-out managing of teams.
You take NTs when you struggle getting good jobs at the club market.
>top 5
>inherits the best ever spanish generation of players and the literal GOAT after Rijkaard had layed the groundwork
>wins a few league titles and 2 CL's, one of which against a shitty Man Utd side (pic related) while all his Barca side was at the peak of their powers
>inherits one of the most stacked teams in history with Bayern and turns a dominant treble winning side into a lesser version of his Barca team and then fails to win the CL after 3 seasons of trying
Top kek. He's got a long way to go before he's even considered for the top 5.
2nd after moyes

Poop alredy tried to coach Brazil though. He wil try it again
>inherits the best ever spanish generation of players and the literal GOAT after Rijkaard had layed the groundwork
Rijkaard was benching Xavi to keep Deco in the starting XI. Wtf are you talking about? And Bayern was never that good. They just had a lucky year in which all the title contenders were imploding.

below zidane
Rijkaard took Barca from the depths to being CL contenders again after a decade of mediocrity. And Deco was better than Xavi up until 2007.
>And Bayern was never that good. They just had a lucky year in which all the title contenders were imploding.
A lucky year where they won every single trophy available and won more points and scored more goals than they did in any of Pep's 3 seasons. Ok then.
You're an imbecile
>Rijkaard took Barca from the depths to being CL contenders again after a decade of mediocrity. And Deco was better than Xavi up until 2007.
And after 2006 Barça did jack all. Deco was utter garbage after 2006 and he just played because he and Rijkaard were buddies. Pep created 2009 Barça. Rijkaard had little to do with that team.
NT management is an 65+ year olds game
Nice refute
Pep got lucky that he took over at the same time Messi was starting to peak. He had no plan B and was an utter buffoon in the transfer market.
If he wins the league more than once with City he will be top 3.
If he somehow manages a Champions League with City he will be the GOAT.
>Pep got lucky that he took over at the same time Messi was starting to peak
And he was smart enough to put him in the middle and put Xavi and Iniesta over Deco and Ronaldinho.Messi hit his peak thanks to Pep in some measure
h-has p-pep b-been exposed yet Cred Forums? You guys told me he wouldn't last a second in the mighty EPL!
>And he was smart enough to put him in the middle and put Xavi and Iniesta over Deco and Ronaldinho
He put Messi in the middle because that's what Messi wanted. It wasn't some genius revelation he had one night. And with Ronaldinho it was an easy decision since he got fat and lazy. Let's not pretend it was some bold choice that shocked the world.
he's going to get gang raped by United now that Mou figured out it's stupid to play Rooney and Fellaini against them
>Let's not pretend it was some bold choice that shocked the world.
It did though.Lots of people criticized him for doing that
>Poop alredy tried to coach Brazil though
You fell for the cheap clickbait, Paco.
Pep built upon 2008's eurocup team. Luis aragonés was the one that gave Xavi full control of the midfield.
> It wasn't some genius revelation he had one night.
> He hasn't seen the video of Pep explaining how he came to the epiphany of Messi as his false 9 when analysising a few matches once upon a time
Except that's literally exactly what happened.
Above Cruyff but below Michels.
>Pep built upon 2008's eurocup team.
Kind of true.Rijkaard gave Xavi a more important role in his first years as well.But it was a bold move anyway as Ronaldinho and Deco were untouchable
This post actually made me really think because I think there might be at least a bit of truth to it.
Michels was revolutionary for the entire game
Cruyff was revolutionary for Barca and basically set their footballing ideology on course
And Pep played in a way that Cruyff was proud of and he was extremely successful whilst also using Spanish players.
needs to win a CL without the GOAT player to really be up there. he is very good but his bayern period showed he lacked the extra necessary to go from semi-finalist to competition winner in the CL. but either way the asterisk of doing it only at elite money teams will still be there
>He put Messi in the middle because that's what Messi wanted.
Ibra said Pep pandered to Messi, doesn't mean False Nine was Messi's idea.
Daniel Alves, Dante and Douglas Costa all have claimed he wanted to coach the NT on interviews I've watched. Dani was the one who said CBF rejected him back in 2012 after Mano Menezes was fired.
Spergio Faguero pls
Busquets and Pedro where Tercera Division (4 Division) and Guardiola made both key players.
That's genius.
Did Cred Forums ever make a manager version of this?

No and I hope it stays that way.
