Do you like pep performances in CL since he left barca? I ask you that because its not realistic to repeat such generation and playing such football isnt really best formula for CL. You use ajax for example, they also got lucky with generation and coach pick, thats rare, just look how they were doing all those years before this season, while you cant expect this from ajax every season, they dont have enough money, you also cant use zhem for some kind of example how barca should do every season, that said, im not happy with valverde, but tjis squad he has, isnt so great either, its overrated.
1. Ajax plays in the same way always.
Yet, they needed 24 years to reach Cl's quarters.
This guy says: let's copy Ajax, lol.
2. Pep today plays the same as Pep at Barca.
Yet, Pep had 6 failures in a row and his teams play naive in defense like Sunday league teams.
3. Whenever Barca played like Barca in a Cl post Pep, we lost heavily, because it is very hard to win in Barca's way today.
4. Spain still plays like Pep's Barca.
Their results since 2012 are horrible, the same as Barca in a Cl when we play like Barca, the same as Pep.
So, on this sample, we have:
25 years of Ajax
5+ seasons of a crap Barca playing like Barca
6 seasons of Pep at Bayern and City
7 years of a crappy NT Spain
Out of 43 samples, this guy finds one example where Barca's type of football works, and where it failed in other 42 occassions and he suggests:
Fuck everything, let's sack EV, let's play like Ajax.
Because 1 out of 43 are quite good odds...
Even though a midfield of Ajax is way more overally balanced than a midfield with Arthur, Puig, Alena, Roberto etc.
