It’s because he sets up his teams to play out from the back with a general focus on possession. That’s it. That’s all you have to do these days to be considered a top tier manager. It doesn’t matter if the team you manage lacks the personnel capable of relying on possession play; that just means the players aren’t good enough for that kind of elite, mind blowing system.

I was actually gonna do a one liner about it being interesting that Pep’s little minions all get a free pass and the players get the blame, yet here it’s all on Erik.
However I don’t think there’s a particular emphasis on possession under ETH. |

Hate to say it, but big Sam is right. You now have this legion of young managers who all seem to think football needs to be played a certain way - some minor hybrid of the Guardiola way - or you're a dinosaur.
Me and my son went to watch a neighbours kid's school match the other day, and they were trying to play out the back - goalie to cb, etc. Conceded 4 goals doing it. Carried on because apparently, "that's the way they play". |
