how good is he really?

took over at barca, with a once in a generation talent on the roster, then went to bayern with a ton of talent.

I know not everyone can coach teams with a ton of talent. u have to get the big heads all to buy in.


could he win at hoffenheim? Pescara?

He has had tons of talent, but he also chooses his guys. He knows what players fit his system and he does well maximizing potential. The deal on Sky a week or so with Henry was great. Henry said his philosophy is basically, "I get you to the final third and you do your thing there." He is REALLY good at that. Get the ball, keep the ball, move the ball up the pitch, and unleash 9 kinds of hell in the final third.

You rarely hear a player speak negatively of him.

Say whatever you want about the advantages he has had...but he hasn't not performed so far.
