For many years that the Classic was not a duel between two very high draft coaches, perhaps since the 94-95 Valdano left mortally wounded Cruyff Dream Team. Of that, the now Deputy President had been chosen by the board to attack the tyranny merengue blaugrana-four consecutive league and European Cup, while Madrid took forty years without raising the Orejona - as now Florentino has been the Mourinho's hands the task of breaking the cycle of the era Guardiola.
The fact is that Barca and Madrid are the two hemispheres of the same world: when one is enlightened the other is condemned to the shadows. Can hardly be both smile at the same time because the happiness of one often at the expense of other's misfortune. This year the usual broth is enriched with two ingredients that could not be more different, because the match between Barcelona and Madrid Guardiola Mourinho is a real clash of philosophies.
Guardiola and Mourinho are like two opposite poles, but no longer have some things in common: both are the heads of everything, and not only with full powers over the locker room, but everything about the sport should be in the way they dictate. Both sewn and undone at will and if anyone dares (or stupidity committed, as we see it) to speak out against him, is dead. However, it is true that both the board and on the lawn, Joseph and Pep could not be more different:
One is a man of the house, the other the most coveted mercenary. One believes in the touch and possession above all, the other like a live football. One gives importance to the beauty, the other only looking for efficiency. You see football as a game of chess and the other likes to feel the mud and the heat of battle. In football it evokes a string quartet, the other sounds like drums of war. One believes in control, the other in power. One likes to walk, the other always seeks the shortest path. One mea colony, the other shit holders. One cares about the media, the other believes the end always justified.
For me, Guardiola and Mourinho are the two best coaches in the world, at least one step ahead of Wenger, Ferguson and Del Bosque, and well ahead of Capello, Benitez, Ancelotti ... The modern game has been dominated by two styles, with many variants, of course-that have been reigning cycle: the combinative and possession football against direct vertical soccer. Today, Blaugrana and meringues are the two global exponents of these styles so that everyone who is not buff one of the two clubs can enjoy the duel between two philosophies designed to cope.
