We can go into a lot of explanation, but bottom line is a goal kick straight to the striker and a goal.
And the second goal, it's a corner for someone at the edge of the box that was alone, and so you considered two goals that...
You would like to think or say maybe that they were inevitable, but at the end of the day, they conceded them.
And when you go 2-0 down against a team like Man City, as we saw after you running after the ball, you kind of give up, which is a bit difficult to understand.
But they did, you're running after the ball, and they picked you up on the third goal, and that's it, 3-0.
But what impresses me with Man City, I go back again, is again, I mean Pep, by the way,
He won a final again without conceding a goal.
People always talk about how his team play, but they can defend well.
They defend high, in your house.
Something I wanted to mention again.
Yes, I mean, I used to say that when I used to play under Pep.
What was impressive is how we used to get the ball back, and that never got a mention, but hopefully with those guys, people are going to talk about it a bit more.
Yeah, and I would like to say that he took a sabbatical year in 2010.
He gave other coaches a chance to win something.
No, listen...
For me, it's how he makes his team play the game.
Because along the way, you're grabbing fans that are trying to look for a team.
So you put Man City on TV, now you're like, I'm going to support that team.
Because it looks like they play football the right way.
You grab people along the way.
