Marcotti's Corps: Zidane has proven that many people see the wrong

VIỆT ANH |

The 2016-2019 season of European football has officially ended. Let's look back at the remarkable developments of the past week under the lens of journalist Gabriele Marcotti on ESPN FC.

Zidane's achievements are much better than many people

When coach Zinedine Zidane took over from coach Rafael Benitez in January 2016, he faced many doubts about his experience or personality. After 17 months, he had blown away such thoughts.

Zidane lacks experience? For a club with a huge record like Real Madrid, the most important thing is to have a coach who understands what is happening inside the team. The former France international has been with the "White Vultures" for more than 15 seasons in various roles, and he has seen 13 strategists come and go.

In terms of personality, he is still a quiet, self-conscious person, and has qualities that are not suitable for business. However, as a player, anger caused Zidane to receive many red cards. The assumptions that Zidane lacks diplomatic ability or personality in the keyboards are no longer important as he is a legend in the team's heart.

In addition, the 1998 Ballon d'Or winner did seemingly impossible things at Real Madrid. He left James Rodriguez on the bench and did not register to play in the UEFA Champions League final. At the end of the season, he rotated players effectively to save energy for the pillars. Or the use of Casemiro, which was once considered an ugly one, is now a factor that creates balance in Real Madrids midfield.

Zinedine Zidane's UEFA Champions League titles are now equal to many coaches such as Arrigo Sacchi, Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho,ottmar Hitzfield, Brian Clough, Ernst Happel.Only coach Carlo Ancelotti and coach Bob Paisley can do better than Zidane.

Wenger and Arsenal are "gambling"

Arsene Wenger should have left Arsenal after winning his third FA Cup in four years with nine wins in his final 10 games of the season. That ending is not too bad as Arsenal only ranked 5th in the Premier League in 2016-2019 and only has a place in the Europa League next season.

No matter what you think about this French "Professional" and whether he should be patient or not, Wenger has a new 2-year contract with Arsenal. However, the truth is that if Arsenal are to make next season worse than this season, they will lose everything.

Coach Wenger may not care or because he was deceived by thinking he was the best choice for the club and Arsenal and the "Professional" are both "gambling".

Barcelona's turning point summer

A practical person can use the word to summarize the new Barcelona head coach - Ernesto Valverde, at least comparing him with his predecessors. He is a reliable solution in negotiating policies at Nou Camp. After 15 seasons in his coaching career, at the age of 53, this coach will come to a truly big team and will prove that he is worthy of the Barca head coach position.

Coach Valverde will need to approach the problems at Barcelona in a practical way, from the future of Andres Iniesta, reforming the midfield to making personnel decisions. And finally, he needs Messi to sign a new contract with Barcelona as well as know how to "talk" with this star.
