Named new coach of Spain, the former coach of FC Barcelona arrives with a selection to rebuild, undermined by two successive failures.
Eliminated at the end of the suspense from the 1/8 final by Russia (1-1, 4-3 TAB), Spain has confirmed the largesse interviewed in Brazil four years earlier. Especially, La Roja has confirmed a sad conclusion: its supremacy over world football, acquired thanks to its own game principles, is officially over.

Offensively, Isco and Asensio as spearheads?
Finally, the offensive animation of the Roja should, again, be entrusted to Isco, who has emerged as the best player of the Spanish selection for many games now. In addition to the former Malaga player, the young Marco Asensio (22) will finally be given the confidence he needs to complete his announced outbreak, which is considered the future of his country in football . Besides these two elements and Diego Costa to a lesser extent, it is clear that there is not really a crowd at the gate to occupy the attack Roja.
