Barcelona Football Shirts Made Proud by Guardiola

                                                                                         

Barcelona are one of the biggest clubs in the world and have had more than their fair share of top name managers over the years, but they took a chance this year and appointed former player Josep Guardiola as manager, in what was his first managerial appointment. Gauardiola repaid the faith shown in him by leading Barcelona to a treble, winning the Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey. Barcelona are the first Spanish team to achieve this.
Guardiola was a fantastic player, spending most of his playing days at Barcelona and captained Johan Cryuff’s ‘dream team when Barcelona won their first European Cup. He has not recreated this success as manager and looks like having the potential to be one of the greats in the next generation of managers.
There is no doubt that Guardiola has a star studded team at his disposal but he made a bold move at the start of the season selling Ronaldinho and bringing in a few lesser known players to make his mark on the team. His achievements this year have been fantastic, especially since so many wanted him to fail as a result of his inexperience.
Even with the loss of Ronaldinho, Guardiola still has Messi, Eto’o, Henry, Xavi and Iniesta, to name but a few, at his disposal so he did inherit a string team but it is a team that hadn’t won La Liga since 2006 and one that many people had started to doubt could win the title.
Guardiola has certainly not put himself out there as a potentially future great manager and if he can continue to show the qualities and winning mentality that he has shown this season then there is no doubt that he will fulfil his potential.
