🚨🎙️ ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIĆ ON LIONEL MESSI'S INFLUENCE ON ARGENTINA AFTER THEIR WIN OVER AUSTRIA:
“I'm obsessed with watching Messi.
Not because he's my friend.
Not because of nostalgia.
Because after all these years, I'm still trying to understand how one player can control a football match without touching the ball every minute.
I watched Argentina today and the first thing I noticed wasn't the scoreline.
It was the way Austria reacted whenever Messi moved.
One step to the left, defenders follow.
One drop into midfield, the entire shape changes.
One glance over his shoulder panic.
That's not football.
That's psychological warfare.
And that's why I laugh when people reduce him to goals and assists.
They don't understand what they're watching.
Messi isn't just Argentina's best player.
He's Argentina's system.
He's their confidence.
He's their belief.
He's the reason every teammate walks onto the pitch thinking the impossible is possible.
People ask me about the GOAT debate.
What debate?
Seriously.
What debate?
For me, there isn't one.
The debate exists because television needs content and social media needs arguments.
When I watch football, I don't see a debate.
I see Messi.
Then I see everybody else.
That doesn't mean other legends weren't incredible.
It means I've never seen another player influence a match, a team and an entire generation of football the way Messi has.
And today was another reminder.
He didn't need a hat-trick.
He didn't need to score from 40 yards.
He just needed to be Lionel Messi.
And suddenly Argentina looked like a completely different team.
That's greatness.
Not when everything depends on you.
When everybody becomes better because you're there.
I've played against great players.
I've played with great players.
But Messi is the only player I've ever watched and genuinely thought:
'This isn't normal.'
The scary thing?
Opponents know exactly what he's going to do.
And they still can't stop it.
That's why I don't waste my time with comparisons anymore.
Some players become legends.
Some players become icons.
Messi became a category of his own.
And after today's performance, if you're still asking me who the greatest footballer of all time is...
You're asking the wrong question.
The right question is:
Will football ever produce another one like him?”

Este vídeo es una MARAVILLA.
Para enseñar en todas las escuelas.
¿CÓMO proteger el balón?
¿CÓMO perfilarse?
¿CÓMO buscar el espacio para jugar de cara?
¿CÓMO levantar la cabeza para ver?
¿CÓMO ganar ESPACIO y TIEMPO?
….
Parece FÁCIL…
Fíjate en Van Dijk, en sus ojos. Defiende mirando a la cara de Foster para ver sus intenciones hasta que arranca y le gana la posición en un gesto. Recuerdo que comentamos este detalle el otro día en la retransmisión de @DAZN_ES. Qué show de central.

Huracan de Tejedor, entro a la Liga Pehuajense a darle un golpe de realidad y jerarquia, año tras año demuestra como deben hacerse las cosas. Un club que trabaja seriamente, desde escuelita hasta primera división, personas dedicadas dentro del club, profesionales, con pertenencia
Lo importante es el proceso, el ganar va a llegar solo, hoy vemos el fruto de trabajo de años seguramente, pero ojalá más clubes copien sus formas, las cosas buenas hay que copiarlas, se trasladan a la forma e idea de cada club, hay que tenerlas, y saber que lleva años, pero...+
Transmiten ideales, inculcan amor al club, año a año promueven jugadores y una idea de juego, se enfocan en formar jugadores y personas, pero lo más importante, la idea y la línea del club esta por sobre todos! Mas clubes deberían copiar su forma, escuelita, inferiores y primera+
👏🏻 ¡Enhorabuena al SEÑOR entrenador que tiene el alevín del Atlético de Madrid!
🔊Activen audio y escuchen lo que les dice a sus jugadores en el descanso del partido.👇🏻
Si uno es amable, los que lo rodean terminan siéndolo. Perdimos 3-0 contra Uruguay y los chicos fueron a saludar a sus rivales. No tengo claro que eso tenga incidencia dentro del campo, pero sí afuera y al final ellos son futbolistas dos horas y el resto personas.
