Surely many of our subscribers do not share the assertion about Guardiola's perfection as a coach, or do not even consider that there is such a thing as a perfect coach .
And we honestly believe that coaches who are of this opinion are right. Among other things, because if we were to admit that the perfect coach exists, our search would be over.
We know that it is not like that, in soccer not everything has been invented, as many repeat over and over again. Soccer is a living sport, with constant evolutions, that the only thing they do is to remove the foundations of this sport constantly.
And that is where a coach like Guardiola comes into his own. Few coaches, or perhaps none like him, have been able to remove those foundations, again and again, providing new situations, concepts and game developments.
There is a lot of talk about his teams' offensive and on-ball play, but his successes have always been based on the defensive conception of his teams.
He is called "inventor", "philosopher", trying to make of his personality a caricature, but in these epithets, goes part of the greatness of this coach.
With more titles than anyone else in the last decades. Winner of all the leagues in which he has participated, his legacy is not the triumphs, but the trail he has left wherever he has done his work.
