And very inadequate for our era really...
How can you survive with this philosophy today?
Him failing at Napoli and Everton is an obvious result of that.
Madrid stans will come now defend him, but if something works only for Madrid then it's not a good philosophy TBH. Pep's philosophy works wherever he goes, same with Arterta, same with Klopp, same with Xabi Alonso, same with Inzaghi, and so on
A top coach is a top coach in all the clubs he works
You can't bring Everton and Napoli with Ancelotti and then bring Pep to the discussion.
When has ever Pep overachieved with his team?
He had the best squad in every trophy he has won, by a large margin.
Barca and Bayern both had best squads in the world, City only won CL when they had twice the quality of nearest opponents, they had the best squad in EPL since 2017.
The only time Pep played in a computer he didn't have the best squad was his 1st seasin with City and he barely qualified to CL.
How can we say Pep would succeed at any club with that? You think he can be success at Everon or Napoli with the same amount of funds? Nah. It doesn't work that way.
Easy to discredit Ancelotti, but pragmatic coach has always succeeded in every era and will continue to do so. They will never be evolutionary type of coach, but always get the job done.
PS: Arteta doesn't belong to the conversation of top coaches yet.
