The Argentine centre-back believes Tito Vilanova has what it takes to take charge of Barcelona and continue Josep Guardiola’s legacy.
Last season Barcelona did not only lose the Spanish La Liga title and the UEFA Champions League; in fact, they also lost one of the best coaches in their history, Josep Guardiola.
The Catalan coach helped http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 win 14 titles during the three years he was in charge of the club.
Josep Guardiola was considered to be one of the best coaches in not only the history of Barcelona, but in fact, the history of football. However, he is yet to prove himself as he has only proven himself with a team like Barcelona, who currently have phenomenal
players at individual level.
With Josep Guardiola leaving the scene, it was decided that his assistant coach, Tito Vilanova, is going to take charge at the Nou Camp.
Number of players in the Barcelona team have come up and backed the idea of Tito Vilanova becoming the new coach for Barcelona. Even though the Catalan coach is inexperienced, many believe that he might succeed because of the fact that he knows the Barcelona
system in and out and knows the players to a degree which no other manager would know.
Players like Andres Iniesta, Xavi Hernandez, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 at hand and believe their former assistant coach can definitely continue the legacy which has been created by Josep Guardiola.
Recently, a new Barcelona player added his name to the list of players who have praised the idea of Vilanova becoming the new manager for Barcelona – http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Javier-Mascherano-c18071.
While speaking about Vilanova becoming the manager for Barcelona, Mascherano said:
“I think that obviously the person who’s responsible for this is Guardiola. But, behind Guardiola you have people doing a great job like Tito.”
“Now he gets to take over the team and what they’ve done over the past four years keeps going for a longer time.”
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 midfielder became a centre-back under the reign of Josep Guardiola, and that too, a successful one. However, with Vilanova planning to buy at least two defenders during this summer transfer window, the former Argentine captain might
see himself in the midfield all over again.
