Think people have forgotten what tiki taka is. The style Bayern and Barcelona play is really nothing like how it was at it's peak.


Just about to come on and say this. Defensive possession =/= tiki taka.

Any manager who can get his team doing this stuff has definitely not done more harm than good.

Guardiola teams plays like me in FIFA and I get called boring. I agree I'm a very boring player in FIFA too.

Saying that against the small teams I liked Bayern this season. It's against the big teams where they got boring because they could actually defend against their possession tactics so they just ended up doing a manchester united with shorter passing where they pass it wide and cross to Mandzukic.

It doesn't touch the football they were playing under Heynckes though.
Pep Guardiola offers the most exciting football compared to any other manager

Because Arsenal scored more goals than Chelsea last season right. Arsenal fans have no right to comment tbh.

There were like only two league games where I'd admit we parked the bus last season. CL is a different thing altogether, you do what you can to progress.


Yeah but that was mainly due to injuries. Goals scored is not the entire story in any case, it is more than possible to enjoy watching a 1-0 more than a 4-0.

Chelsea are just a dull team to watch even when youre not parking the bus mate, almost everyone would agree with that. If youre trying to claim that Arsenal dont usually play a more appealing game then what's more is there to say, we've entered fantasy land.
