Dung beetle strategy
"Pep was not so big, so that was his disadvantage, but also his advantage. He was intelligent and he had vision. If you are not going to win physical battles you must learn to stay out of them. He could see and understand every position from the field. Pep was not going to be good if he had to defend 20 meters, but if he had to defend 5 or 10 meters, he could do it. So, he needed to make sure he had two players in the right position to help him and close down the space. When I saw his intelligence and his vision, that was the first indication he was going to be a good player and could become a great coach and go on to develop people. (..) The most important aspect of a coach are his eyes. Pep’s eyes are perfect, he sees every detail."
