Lavolpe's Influence
Though he has been criticized by some, his influence is obvious in Mexican football. Fans of the teams Atlas, Toluca, and Atlante F.C. remember him fondly. His philosophy, style of play, and attitude is referred to as "Lavolpismo". Current coaches who have studied under and continue to use a modified version of his style of play and philosophy are referred to as "Lavolpistas". He has had his run-ins with players in the past, but many players refer to him as a great coach who holds a great relationship with his players.

Famous quotes containing the word influence:
“Poets are the hierophants of an unapprehended inspiration; the mirrors of the gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present; the words which express what they understand not; the trumpets which sing to battle and feel not what they inspire; the influence which is moved not, but moves. Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (17921822)
