Tuchel prefers to organise attacking interactions from clear starting positions.
Ancelotti prefers player characteristics, tendencies and relationships to guide the attacking positions.

Nagelsmann on taking Beier and dropping Adeyemi: "I'm a big fan of having players who can play in many positions. Karim had a very good first half of the season, but unfortunately things didn't go so well in the second half. I'll say a few words, because Karim always has a bit of a negative reputation. The way he reacted was top-notch. He handled it really well. With Maxi, you always imagine scenarios about when you can bring him on as a substitute. He can give us so much"

🗣️ Josh Kroenke: “Mikel Arteta was looking at an NFL game & he goes, ‘every play is choreographed, every play is a set-piece’. I took him to a hockey game, he said ‘they form triangles everywhere, we have to get down there, I’d love to meet the coach’. He wants to apply it.” 🕵️‍♂️🏈

🗣️ Fernandinho on Guardiola’s first training session at City

“It was a simple 11-v-11 and normally in training the first action was like, ‘OK, we start the game relaxing and then after we’re gonna see what happens’,” he says.

“The first touch of the ball, I don’t remember who did it, he whistled and stopped the session and said, ‘Listen, if you’re thinking you’re gonna play that way, it’s impossible. From the first minute to the last minute, we go full gas’.

“The message was really clear because most of the players were used to going through the game or the session and in some actions we go full gas. But with him, since the first session, he says from the first whistle you have to go full gas.

“This was the first impression we had with him and after that, every training session was in that way.”
