VAMOS socios! Here’s what I was talking about in the latest episode of The Big Inside View over on Patreon.
As you know, in the podcast I spoke about what I think has been a push back against the brand of football made popular by Pep Guardiola, a style many of us fell in love with while watching his FC Barcelona team, especially.
But there is an antidote to this attack, as you can see in this clip of the fabulous football being played by Celta Vigo, where Luis Enrique’s former assistant at Barcelona, Juan Carlos Unzué, is now manager.

And you can see something very similar in how Napoli move the ball cleverly, at pace, during a recent friendly with Atletico Madrid.

I also want to draw your attention to the sensational decision of Juan Mata to support Street Football’s #CommonGoal project. Mata is giving up one per cent of his salary to that incredible cause and you can find out more about it by following this link.
