Calacus Monthly Hit & Miss – Gareth Southgate

Every month we look at the best and worst communicators in the sports world from the last few weeks.

GARETH SOUTHGATE

It has often been said that being the England men’s football manager is ‘the impossible job’ given the levels of expectation that come with the role.

The England men’s team have only won a solitary international tournament – the 1966 FIFA World Cup staged on home soil, with that legendary 4-2 win in the final at Wembley against arch rivals West Germany a rare triumph.

Since then, ‘It’s coming home!’ is a regular theme for England teams who reach the latter stages of tournaments, the groundswell of expectation giving way to despair and heartache when defeat ultimately occurs.

While the influence of the mainstream media may have waned in recent years from the lamentable era when managers such as Graham Taylor had his head super-imposed on a turnip, the pressure still weighs heavy on whoever takes the job.

Big name coaches such as Sven-Goran Eriksson and Fabio Capello came and went without lifting trophies, the success of the Premier League adding undue hope that this time, things will be different.

After England’s disappointing exit at the hands of Iceland at EURO 2016 and the short-lived tenure of Sam Allardyce after a scandal, what England needed was a safe pair of hands, someone to give the pride back to the Three Lions.

Former international Gareth Southgate, a quiet and under-stated former international defender, was promoted to coach the senior men’s team after a spell in charge of the England under-21 team.

Seen at the time as an underwhelming appointment, especially after his young charges finished bottom of their group in the 2015 European Championship, Southgate inherited a national team who appeared to need dynamic re-invention.

Perhaps his greatest achievement has been to make the team a success without the swashbuckling pizazz that many demanded.

Seen as a light touch, particularly given some of his reactions in-game, Southgate did far more to reinvigorate the men’s team than he is often given credit for.

Football management is a results game, and Southgate took England to the FIFA World Cup semi-final, which they lost against Croatia; before two Euro finals, losing first to Italy on penalties and then to Spain earlier this summer.

It’s important to note that Southgate won nine tournament knockout games during his tenure, as many as England had ever won in major men’s tournaments before his reign.

Some might argue that having worked with one of the more talented of England squads, he should have won a major trophy, but there was far more to his success than just winning games.

Southgate oversaw the England job during a turbulent period in England’s history, with the nation having to endure the drama of Brexit, five Prime Ministers, rising living costs and culture wars which stoked division among society.

That’s where Southgate’s strength lay, acting as a calming influence but also one who was not afraid to take a stand and do what he considered to be the right thing.

During his tenure, there was little to no scandal, such were the standards Southgate expected and secured from his charges.

But he was also brave enough to face down criticisms for the sake of social causes, encouraging his players to take the knee before games as a protest against racism, despite criticism from some of the fanbase, who had found themselves stoked up by populism.

It was fitting that the first game where this took place was an England match in Middlesbrough, where Southgate had played for many years, steadfast despite the mixed reaction from fans before the game.

He was not afraid, either, to address issues such as the rainbow captain’s armband when the decision was made not to wear it under threat of sanctions in Qatar, a conservative state where the FIFA 2022 World Cup took place.

Southgate explained: “I think we are supportive of the LGBT+ community. A large number of the team on the staff have either relatives or friends from that community, so it’s a relationship and a situation that we’re very conscious of.

“We have tried to be supportive, but I also accept that members of that community felt let down by the World Cup, but I think you have to live your life as you see it.

“I do know that we’re in a position where there might be a feeling we haven’t done enough in certain situations and if that’s the case we have to accept that criticism, but it’s not intentional that we would let down any of our fans, but these are all very complex situations that we’re trying to do our best at navigate.”

Qatar was a rare case of Southgate being caught in external political crossfire, but within the camp, he was a master of creating harmony.

Mindful of the factions that had hampered England before, during and after his player career, Southgate had also set about creating unity where there had previously been division, removing ego and selfishness for the selflessness which came naturally to him.

Players reported a good atmosphere during training camps and call-ups, the pressure of representing England being replaced by a calm environment in Southgate’s image, which allowed players to thrive.

That ability to manage egos, to meld players who spent the majority of their lives competing against each other, is one of his greatest legacies. It helped that he brought through players from different clubs who had played together at youth level for England, the bonds of camaraderie already established.

For example, Phil Foden, Marc Guéhi, Conor Gallagher and Jadon Sancho were all part of the England side that lifted the under-17 World Cup in 2017, while Anthony Gordon and Cole Palmer played in the winning England under-21 Euros team in 2023. Having come up through the England ranks together, these footballers had an existing relationship that made them likely to form better bonds in the senior team, despite spending most of the year with their different clubs.

When three black England players, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Bakayo Saka, received racist abuse online after missing penalties which contributed to England’s defeat in the Euro 2020 final against Italy, something Southgate experienced himself in 1996, the coach was a reassuring figure looking to protect the youngsters from the bellowing external criticism.

He said: "For some of them to be abused is unforgivable really. It's just not what we stand for. We have been a beacon of light in bringing people together in people being able to relate to the national team, and the national team stands for everybody and so that togetherness has to continue.

"We have shown the power our country has when it does come together and has that energy and positivity together.”

The decency and kindness which Southgate exhibited so often has been such an contrast to the aggression and petulance many other coaches show on the sidelines.

It felt like a bond had been built between England players and fans that hadn’t existed for a generation.

Even when ‘fans’ were throwing plastic beer glasses onto the field after a dour 1-1 draw against Denmark, Southgate retained his dignity and humility and faced down his critics, proving that decency is something to invoke inspiration; a strength, not a weakness.

There were criticisms, based around his tactical approach, that he was often too cautious and lacked a clear style of play.

But instead of being seen as the kiss of death, England became adept at winning penalty shootouts, not to mention the progress he made at the business end of tournaments.

Regardless of his failure to lift that elusive trophy, Southgate made the England men’s team contenders again. Where fans often crowed with misplaced pride, he gave them something to be proud of – not only becoming a football force again, but as ambassadors for the English game.

Perhaps it’s fitting that Southgate’s last act as England manager was to publish a letter on the Football Association website confirming that the defeat in Berlin was his last in the role.

“As a proud Englishman, it has been the honour of my life to play for England and to manage England. It has meant everything to me, and I have given it my all.

“We have the best fans in the world, and their support has meant the world to me. I’m an England fan and I always will be.

“I look forward to watching and celebrating as the players go on to create more special memories and to connect and inspire the nation as we know they can.

“Thank you, England – for everything.”

As Rory Smith says in the New York Times: “No other England manager has spoken as much or as convincingly as Southgate. No other England manager has so successfully articulated a sense of what the England team is meant to be about, what it stands for and why it matters.”

Fabio Capello Bangga Meski Wakil Italia Kalah di Final Eropa: Perkembangan Sepak Bola Italia yang Memukau!

Fabio Capello Bangga Meski Wakil Italia Kalah di Final Eropa: Perkembangan Sepak Bola Italia yang Memukau!

Pewarta Nusantara, Yogyakarta – Semua wakil Italia mengalami kekalahan di final kompetisi Eropa, tetapi Fabio Capello, pelatih legendaris Italia, tetap merasa bangga dengan penampilan mereka.

Kekalahan Inter Milan, AS Roma, dan Fiorentina di final Liga Champions, Liga Europa, dan Conference League membuat Capello mengapresiasi perkembangan sepak bola Italia secara keseluruhan.

Capello menekankan bahwa meskipun mereka kalah, tidak ada tim yang mampu menguasai permainan mereka. Inter Milan, Roma, dan Fiorentina mampu bermain dengan gaya mereka sendiri dan menunjukkan permainan yang baik.

“Sepak bola Italia telah berkembang. Ini final ketika di mana kami menelan kekalahan. Kami semua kalah, tapi tidak ada yang mampu mendominasi kami. Inter, Roma, dan Fiorentina bisa bermain melawan semua tim dengan kepribadiannya,” kata Fabio Capello kepada Sky Sport Italia.

Capello juga memberikan apresiasi khusus untuk perjuangan Inter Milan. Meskipun mereka gagal menjadi juara, ia melihat bahwa Inter telah melakukan pekerjaan yang luar biasa.

Namun, ia menyoroti masalah dalam komposisi pemain yang dimiliki oleh Simone Inzaghi.

Meskipun demikian, Capello percaya bahwa Inter Milan dapat menjadi lebih kompetitif di Serie A dan Liga Champions dengan beberapa penyesuaian yang tepat.

Menurutnya, mereka hanya perlu memiliki pemain yang tepat di posisi yang tepat. Capello menekankan pentingnya kepresisian dalam pertandingan semacam itu, di mana kesalahan kecil dapat berakibat fatal.

Dalam pandangan Fabio Capello, meskipun kekalahan di final kompetisi Eropa adalah pukulan yang menyakitkan, hal itu tidak mengurangi kebanggaannya terhadap permainan dan perkembangan sepak bola Italia secara keseluruhan. (*Ibs)

Sejarah Liga Champions: Perjalanan Klub Legendaris

Liga Champions UEFA (UEFA Champions League) adalah salah satu kompetisi sepak bola paling bergengsi di dunia. Turnamen ini telah menjadi panggung di mana klub-klub terbaik dari Eropa berkompetisi untuk meraih trofi supremasi. Seiring berjalannya waktu, Liga Champions tidak hanya menjadi ajang adu strategi, tetapi juga saksi dari perjalanan klub-klub legendaris yang mencatatkan sejarah tak terlupakan. Berikut adalah ulasan sejarah singkat dan perjalanan beberapa klub legendaris yang telah meninggalkan jejak mendalam di kompetisi ini.

Awal Mula Liga Champions

Liga Champions UEFA pertama kali didirikan pada tahun 1955 dengan nama European Champion Clubs' Cup atau Piala Champions Eropa. Pada awalnya, hanya juara liga dari setiap negara yang diizinkan untuk berpartisipasi. Namun, seiring perkembangan kompetisi, formatnya berubah menjadi Liga Champions seperti yang kita kenal sekarang pada tahun 1992, memungkinkan klub-klub dari posisi teratas liga-liga top Eropa untuk berpartisipasi.

Sejak kelahirannya, Liga Champions telah menjadi ajang pertemuan raksasa-raksasa sepak bola dari seluruh Eropa, dengan sejumlah klub yang berhasil meraih status legendaris melalui prestasi mereka di kompetisi ini.

Real Madrid: Raja Liga Champions

Tidak dapat dipungkiri bahwa Real Madrid adalah klub paling sukses dalam sejarah Liga Champions. Klub asal Spanyol ini memiliki hubungan yang sangat erat dengan kompetisi ini, setelah memenangkan trofi 14 kali hingga 2023. Dominasi Real Madrid dimulai pada tahun-tahun awal Liga Champions, ketika mereka memenangkan lima gelar berturut-turut dari 1956 hingga 1960 di era Alfredo Di Stéfano dan Ferenc Puskás.

Kebangkitan Real Madrid berlanjut di era modern, dengan tiga gelar berturut-turut dari 2016 hingga 2018, dipimpin oleh pelatih Zinedine Zidane dan pemain bintang Cristiano Ronaldo. Prestasi ini menjadikan Real Madrid sebagai klub yang paling banyak memenangkan gelar Liga Champions dan simbol kejayaan kompetisi ini.

AC Milan: Kekuatan Italia di Panggung Eropa

AC Milan adalah klub lain yang memiliki sejarah panjang di Liga Champions. Dengan 7 trofi, Milan menjadi klub dengan gelar Liga Champions terbanyak kedua setelah Real Madrid. Era kejayaan Milan di kompetisi ini terutama terjadi pada 1980-an dan 1990-an, di bawah kepelatihan Arrigo Sacchi dan kemudian Fabio Capello.

Generasi pemain seperti Paolo Maldini, Marco van Basten, dan Frank Rijkaard membawa Milan ke puncak kejayaan Eropa, termasuk memenangkan gelar pada tahun 1989 dan 1990 secara berturut-turut. Mereka juga berhasil menambah koleksi trofi pada 2003 dan 2007 di bawah manajer Carlo Ancelotti.

Liverpool: The Reds dan Malam-Malam Eropa yang Memukau

Liverpool FC juga menjadi klub yang selalu diingat ketika berbicara tentang Liga Champions. Klub asal Inggris ini telah memenangkan 6 gelar, dengan kemenangan terakhir mereka diraih pada 2019 di bawah manajer Jürgen Klopp.

Salah satu momen paling legendaris dalam sejarah kompetisi ini terjadi pada final 2005 di Istanbul, di mana Liverpool menghadapi AC Milan. Meski tertinggal 0-3 di babak pertama, Liverpool berhasil menyamakan kedudukan menjadi 3-3 dan akhirnya menang melalui adu penalti. Ini dikenal sebagai "The Miracle of Istanbul" dan menjadi salah satu final Liga Champions paling dramatis dalam sejarah.

Bayern Munich: Dominasi Jerman

Bayern Munich adalah raksasa Jerman yang juga memiliki catatan gemilang di Liga Champions. Bayern telah memenangkan 6 gelar hingga 2020, termasuk kemenangan pada tahun 2020 di mana mereka meraih treble (Bundesliga, Piala DFB, dan Liga Champions) di bawah manajer Hansi Flick.

Bayern juga dikenal dengan dominasi mereka pada 1970-an, ketika mereka memenangkan tiga gelar Liga Champions berturut-turut dari 1974 hingga 1976 dengan tim yang dihuni oleh legenda seperti Franz Beckenbauer dan Gerd Müller. Kekuatan dan konsistensi Bayern di Liga Champions membuat mereka menjadi salah satu klub yang selalu difavoritkan di setiap musim kompetisi.

Barcelona: Era Kejayaan Messi dan Tiki-Taka

FC Barcelona telah memenangkan 5 gelar Liga Champions, dan salah satu periode paling sukses mereka adalah di bawah pelatih Pep Guardiola pada akhir 2000-an dan awal 2010-an. Di era Lionel Messi, Barcelona menerapkan gaya permainan tiki-taka, yang menekankan pada penguasaan bola dan umpan pendek cepat.

Barcelona memenangkan Liga Champions pada 2006, 2009, 2011, dan 2015, dengan tim yang dianggap sebagai salah satu yang terbaik dalam sejarah sepak bola. Pemain seperti Xavi, Andrés Iniesta, dan Messi sendiri menjadi simbol dominasi Barcelona di kancah Eropa.

Manchester United: Kebangkitan Inggris

Manchester United telah memenangkan 3 gelar Liga Champions, dan mereka adalah salah satu klub Inggris paling ikonik di kompetisi ini. Di bawah kepelatihan Sir Alex Ferguson, United meraih gelar Liga Champions pada 1999 dengan kemenangan dramatis atas Bayern Munich dalam final yang tak terlupakan, di mana mereka mencetak dua gol pada waktu tambahan untuk menang 2-1.

Manchester United kembali meraih trofi pada 2008 setelah mengalahkan Chelsea melalui adu penalti di final yang digelar di Moskow. Klub ini juga dikenal karena pengaruh besar Ferguson dalam membangun tim-tim yang tangguh di kancah Eropa.

Klub-Klub Lain yang Mencetak Sejarah

Selain klub-klub besar tersebut, banyak klub lain yang telah mencatatkan sejarah penting di Liga Champions, seperti:

Ajax Amsterdam yang memenangkan 4 gelar, terutama pada era Johan Cruyff dan filosofi Total Football.

Inter Milan, dengan 3 gelar, termasuk treble bersejarah pada 2010 di bawah José Mourinho.

Chelsea FC, yang memenangkan gelar pertama mereka pada 2012 dan mengulanginya pada 2021.

Kesimpulan

Liga Champions UEFA bukan hanya kompetisi sepak bola, tetapi juga pertempuran antara raksasa-raksasa Eropa yang penuh dengan sejarah dan momen legendaris. Setiap klub besar yang meraih kesuksesan di kompetisi ini telah meninggalkan jejak yang mendalam, baik melalui permainan indah, comeback dramatis, maupun dominasi mereka di lapangan. Seiring waktu, Liga Champions terus menjadi ajang yang mempertemukan klub-klub terbaik dunia untuk memperebutkan supremasi sepak bola Eropa, dengan para penggemar selalu menantikan siapa yang akan menambah cerita legendaris dalam perjalanan panjang kompetisi ini.

🧠⚽️ Fabio Capello Jelasin Beda Antara Italia & Spanyol Di Piala Eropa 2024

"Perbedaan tekniknya udah mulai jauh dari dulu karena negara kita gak lagi fokus sama kualitas." "Tim-tim muda diajarin taktik, tapi gak diajarin teknik dan ini hasilnya dalam jangka panjang. Aku pernah melatih di Madrid, jadi aku tahu banget gimana cara mereka main bola di Spanyol." "Bagian terbaik dari sesi latihan adalah rondo, bukan karena mereka bisa bercanda dan santai, tapi karena teknik itu yang utama." "Banyak yang ngeliat Guardiola sebagai panutan di Italia, tapi Guardiola yang sepuluh tahun lalu. Pep udah berkembang. Kebingungan ini yang bikin kita terbatas sekarang. Pemain kita gak pernah berani ngambil tanggung jawab buat main bola atau dribble lawan." "Kita salah kaprah antara main bola bagus sama possession bola yang gak berguna. Main bola bagus itu yang Spanyol lakuin sekarang." "Itu jalan yang harus diambil. Model di mana Nico Williams, 21, selalu nyari duel satu-lawan-satu karena ‘pelatih maunya gitu.'"
