GAME IDEOLOGY
Towards a chameleon-like and effective style
01
WORK DISCIPLINE
My goal is that the player always understands the reason behind each exercise he performs. It's essential for him to recognize the benefits of that activity, as well as the control he gains over that task or situation in the game, and also to understand how this contributes to game day. I'm convinced that the effectiveness of a task is based more on understanding than on obligation. This, among other things, stimulates the player's reactions and fosters his motivation. Therefore, it's essential that we can clarify why and the purpose of each training session.

STYLE
I analyze football as a whole. From my point of view, in modern football, playing systems have become less important.What really makes the difference are the styles of play and the ability to make decisions in every moment.
Football is a continuous flow of actions, and there are four key moments that are closely interconnected: attack, transition from attack to defense, defense, and transition from defense to attack. To manage these four moments effectively, it is essential to have complete mastery of all aspects of the game, both offensive and defensive. Personally, I believe it is easier to control and win matches through ball possession, but fortunately, there are many ways to achieve victory in football.
My main goal is that my team has a clear and defined identity, with well-established game concepts that allow us to find the best solutions during the match. To achieve this, player commitment and understanding of the game are absolutely fundamental.
As a coach, you are in charge of a locker room with young players facing enormous pressure. Many of them have not achieved the necessary tools to handle these types of situations yet. As a coach, it's not enough to focus solely on tactics, technique, and physical work. Furthermore, it is also essential to ensure each player is emotionally and mentally balanced, so they can perform at their best. Therefore, it is crucial to strengthen the players' mental and emotional management, not only by the coach and the coaching staff, but also by enlisting the help of a specialist at certain times.
Hence, my goal is to align both player management and their commitment to a shared vision, driving their development in that direction. As a coach, you must feel that your players trust you and the direction you propose. Player motivation and belief are essential to success.

THE COACH
Coaches must always be aware of advances in the profession. Technology has enormously advanced, but it is not what wins games. Undoubtedly, it gives us more tools, allows us to optimize our time, and improves the way we communicate our ideas, but I believe the essence and soul of football cannot be obtained from technology.
Having been a player adds value to your knowledge of the game, but I do not consider it the only or even the most decisive factor in being a good coach. I believe heavily in managing one's own experiences and in being self-critical about what one has experienced, as this is the only way to progress and continue to improve constantly.

TECHNICAL STAFF
This is a team sport, and for this reason, I choose to work with this group of professionals.
