Yes that's exactly what I'm looking for and that's what Madrid should be looking for as well. It's time for a generational change and what Zidane "has always done" won't work this time.
I'm sorry, is the generational change not happening? Did you miss him trying to get Pogba/Eriksen/VDB? Or Mendy coming in? Or Militao to eventually replace Ramos? He asked for those + Jović first, while also getting Hazard to supplement the goals. He is still waiting for the midfielder.
It's as if to you 'generational change' means what you want to see happen in Barcelona i.e. ageing starters getting binned on the spot.
1. A whole lot of formations to choose from, but no formation that's cohesive.
2. Young players that need to adapt and take the next step.
3. No real playing style. His last stint was cross cross cross, Lopetegui tried more possession. Zidane at the moment is in no man's land.
4-3-3 is cohesive. Diamond is cohesive. Unless of course you go and look at it through goal difference glasses... Take out a few ageing personnel and it should be fine. The 3+2 formation is new so naturally it'll be worse, but has potential to be very good. It worked perfectly on at least 1 occasion this past season.
Also who gives a fuck if it was cross cross cross? Using crosses against low-blocks is a natural go to weapon, particularly when you have the best off-the-ball forward of all-time like Ronaldo who is almost a guarantee of 1 goal per game from those crosses. Another reason this didn't work better was because Perez refused to buy-in a forward that every manager since Ancelotti asked for. Total system-craving-Cule type of outlook to make it sound like it's a bad thing.
Either way, judging cohesion of new lineups with new players after 8 games of preseason when squad is not complete...
He developed around as many players as Valverde, which is close to 0.
Results of his work with under 23s show he's not much of a coach, sure. Or at least he wasn't until now. Then again, this kind of thing doesn't happen overnight and he may be one of those who only develops the players he specifically trusts or asks for (see Casemiro, Varane or Asensio). Seems not to have a good connection with the generation of Spaniards that came through. Too bad. Doesn't mean he's the wrong man for the job.
There were talks about a revolution before this season
Dunno how you expected the revolution to manifest itself. Bringing CKM together was revolutionary, he's basically responsible for putting together the 2nd best midfield trio of this century.
You're the king of soundbites so no surprise you cling to them and bounce them back while announcing project is failed before the season even began, but there's a bit of nuance really.
