Ernesto Valverde does the magic for Athletic
Ernesto Valverde's most high profile job was at Barcelona, where he did very well and was sacked a little unfairly. However it is the job he has done since, with Athletic Club that deserves to be spoken about.
Valverde has made this side a physical, defensively solid team, which packs a punch on the counter and are very very hard to play against, especially at home.
Last night, he delivered them their first major trophy in 40 years. The bond he shares with the club is something that is very rare in modern football. Valverde will remain underrated in the larger context of European and Spanish football but for those in Bilbao, they will forever celebrate him.
