yeah i said post-catenaccio because nobody plays it anymore but what remains since is a strong emphasis on defense that's probably never gonna leave the game. just 6 years ago in the world cup people were complaining of too much defense ruling the game.
and yes, everyone wants to play like barcelona, but barcelona at its best plays with puyol and dani alves, and then busquets in the midfield. let's also not forget that chelsea won the CL by parking the bus?
