question on managers. Both Brendan Rodgers and Martinez had few coaching stint before breaking into big time in bpl. so they actually learn thru several job experience but still wasnt as successful. Then there are managers who came from nowhere like Simone, pep and straightaway begin something special in a club.

Do you think its a matter of emotional intelligence or that these managers are players who have played at highest level? Klopp did not play at highest level but he does have that personality to influence though.

Pep was a coach and youth team manager at Barca.

{Ed001's Note - Simeone had other jobs before Atleti. Pep was manager of the B team, which play in the second/third tier in Spain, so he had experience.}

What happened in the 2nd half. Klopp was completely out coached. Mercy!

Simeone was already successful at Racing Club in Argentina. How else do you think, he got the Atleti job?

Utter capitulation in the second half. This, rather than losing the game is why most fans get so annoyed. We were on top, dominant even for the whole first half. But the second half they never got started.

I just don't understand why? How can a team of highly paid professionals go from being completely in control to utterly hopeless like that? It wasn't just a change in sevilla's attitude.

We were second to everything in the second half, like they just gave up after their 1st goal. The effort and attitude disappeared. 45 minutes of hard work and decent play undone in 17 seconds. Forget the countless handball decisions in the first half, they deserved to win by our performance 2nd half.

Disappointed doesn't describe it. I honestly would have preferred we just got battered 5-0 than see our team of schizophrenic's show how brilliant and awful they can be in 1 game.
