"This isn't football. It's something else and it makes my blood boil."
Those words in 2020 from then Barcelona boss Quique Setien about Getafe's style of play came as no surprise to their manager Jose Bordalas.
He has been accused of being a merchant of negativity throughout his managerial career, a coach whose football suffocates rather than inspires.
"Normal people don't want to watch football like that," Xavi once commented after his Barcelona side were frustrated by Getafe's intensity.
Athletic forward Inaki Williams also called out Bordalas after a stormy night in Bilbao, while other managers - from Mallorca's Jagoba Arrasate to Marcelino at Villarreal - have complained of time-wasting, dark arts and tactical cynicism.
