It does some days Thierry Henry explained in one of his apparitions in "Sky Sports" the methodology of game of the teams trained by Pep Guardiola, but now has gone a step further and has published an article in "The Sun" in which it has desgranado even more in depth those that considers that they are the five key points of the methodology of game of the teams of the Catalan technician, that is used to to impregnate his style in each one of them in favour of an always attractive proposal from the point of view of the viewer, when being always very offensive.

Henry does not doubt to the hour to ensure that Guardiola is "one of the best trainers of all time", and has clear that, if he was president of a club in England, would not doubt in trying the incorporation of the of Santpedor for the bench "without any discussion", sentence. In the article in question, in any case, the five appearances that describes the ex French player are the following: Philosophy, System, Discipline, Preparation and "Coaching".

Regarding the philosophy, the methodology is clear: happen the balloon, the game of position and keep the possession. "It treats to defend high, exert pressure on the exit of the rival team and steal the balloon the fastest possible. For him, win is a consequence to play well, respecting his plan and keeping the possession and the game of position", explains Henry.

The system is also a very elastic concept for Guardiola, splitting of the base that the Catalan technician has played with a 2-5-3 in the Bayern Munich. "With Neuer of líbero, the central can throw the highest line knowing that they are covered. His extremes besides keep up and very opened to expand the field". This yes, to keep the level of game on the terrain of game is necessary a big discipline in all the senses.

"Guardiola Is an absolute professional inside and out of the field and demand the same of each one of his players", says Henry, revealing that Pep Guardiola even forbade to his players "see the F1 or tennis matchs" because it involved to be a lot of hours in the sunlight, or "go out from midnight. If had commercial commitments, my agent had to send him an email to Pep to ask him permission. Never it said that no, but it wanted to know what were doing. It sounds as if it was a fanatical of the absolute control, but never went like this".

To play with Guardiola, does lacking "to learn what expected the technician of his form to play, put until the last drop of energy in the trainings and put total attention to all the details. The people knows that it uses the balloon his tricks, films and aims, but perhaps do not know the attention that puts him to the defensive work and to all his instructions so that each player was in the right place". Guardiola Also has one some facet of psychologist, and here is where goes in the true "coaching". "His strategy worked. After speaking with him marked a hat trick and finish marking 100 goals body the three forwards", relates Henry.
