This Villa game :lol:

 

Was that Villa goal not offside? The player was miles off and he clearly gained an advantage by being there. Sky commentators just ignoring it.

 

Guy on the line looked like he was going for it as well :lol: Despite being at least 5 yards offside.

 

The challenge for Colchester's pen as well :lol:

Zidane is under-rated because a. he has a great team but b. he's not built-up as some type of master tactician or Maverick. Someone like Carlo Ancelotti is under-rated for that same reason. A manager with top pedigree as a player who is good at.... managing superstars and getting the best out of a team full of them.

 

Part of what makes him a great manager is that he's Zinedine Zidane. The gravitas of him works in his favour and there's not much further to say. Zidane seems to let players do their thing but if there's something to critique his words will be heard. Someone like Benitez telling Kroos and Bale how to strike a ball?  Doesn't work so well.

 

The same again is true working upstairs. Zidane made Casemiro a key member of the team and that's that. Rafa couldn't negotiate it upstairs.

He's won... what 5 major trophies in 15 months? That tends to shut criticism up. From February they beat Bayern, Atletico & Juve in the CL final and won La Liga. Can't keep talking smack after that can I?

 

Until Bale got injured.... up until the last quarter of the season I think - Real were unconvincing for me. Looked disjointed. Got the results but not the performances. But in the last quarter he managed the team and the fixtures tremendously. Rotation, tactics in big games etc. no complaints. Even when Real lost El Clasico, he did it in the Real way - kept attacking, made a substitution that worked.
