He was inches away because he gave up too soon. He was bad for Barça. Let players too free, no discipline. I hope he does much better for Argentina, but I'm really not happy with his appointment.

My humble perspective is this. Tata while not perfect, has been and continues to be maligned unfairly. Many of us make assertions and jump to conclusions based on mere hunches having never been in the dressing room or around the team. How can you say he had no control over the players and let them free.?? Is that a fact or is it just an assumption on your part, based on stuff that you probably would have simply read in the media for example.

Watching the games gave a good insight on things. And media makes up a lot of stuff, sure. But some sources are credible, like the players. Cuenca talked about it, and what he said was pretty much the same things the press were saying. Xavi also said some things.

Tata removed the fines system, that Lucho reinstated now. He was laid back, and some players got a trainer outside of the club to keep fit... There were too many things. The barbecues. He was fed up with the catalan press in december, too. His way of coaching was a very different one. But it might work on nt level. I hope it does.

Worked for Paraguay. WC QF(Could've been Semi with a bit more luck) and Copa America Runners-Up. Now the style of play with Paraguay was boring as hell and all that, but Argentina's players, squad is a completely different thing.
