Emotion is the most important capacity of the coach ,it's very difficult to convince ,if one proposes something in which one does not believe it to the death.
Extreme overloads also seem to be on the rise, where one side of the attack is focused instead of constantly switching sides. Nagelsmann did it against Union last season, Klopp once in the CL against Villarreal, Pep is also experimenting with it. https://t.co/SrAitYnTES
Nobody has yet found anything that destroys such systems, but there are approaches.Leverkusen can at least create more action and play under pressure more often because they are so well protected by their compactness. (More soon in the Academy: https://t.co/YPZoAWPNhP)
Translation of the recent thread about Bayern and the general issue of impatience in positional play under the mental pressure of being forced to win.
This pressure leads to impatience, impatience distorts decision making.
This also changes what's a winning mindset.
People saw Diaz move from the most physical league in the world to Bayern and suddenly look a world-beater but they can't apply the same imagination to Gordon who runs around exactly like him and is even better with the ball.
If you have far more self-control than your age mates and are passionate from a young age about anything, you are going to end up exceptional.
IQ is a fake goyim substitute for this.
Money lessons for poor people from a moderately smart African:
1. Don't invest your money in a business you do not understand well. Not even in firms like Google, Nvidia etc.
2. If you are not confident that your investment will outpace inflation & currency devaluation, do not do it.
3. Invest your money in a business you know well, typically one you control. If you are not skilled enough to start a business, go back to learning.
4. Invest your money first in learning, then in distribution (potential reach & sales network), then in your actual business. Each one pays for itself and the next step.
5. Participate in the largest possible economy you have access to and an interest in.
6. Keep your expenses low and bare until you have mastered a skill.
7. Don't keep amorphous “rainy day” savings. Save for a particular short-term goal if you need to. Otherwise, plow as much as you can into your learning, or distribution, or business.
8. Once you achieve a financial breakthrough, don't rest on your oars. Reinvest in another cycle of learning, distribution and business.
9. Marry a man or woman of great character, typically one similar in mindset to you. Do it early and do it simple.
10. Try not to borrow, especially if you don't have a certain way of repaying in a short window. Avoid anything that could cause a significant damage to your current financial cycle. Don't even borrow for your learning, or distribution, or business if the potential risk is significant.
Slot not being able to work with Nunez would be proof of his Tier 2 status compared to Mikel & Pep.
A Champion of a coach, but not truly blessed with unique qualities as to be generational.
A coach who never stopped teaching. It sounds crazy to say this, but you made greatness feel normal. Even after hat-tricks, wins and trophies, there was always another lesson, another challenge and another level to reach. That mentality changed this club forever and changed me too. The honour of a lifetime to work with the best. Thank you for everything, boss 🙏🏻 🩵
A thought is light or energy that becomes an intention upon being shaped by consciousness. Reality is multi-layered, no two people have the same reality!

Told this girl I had a rough day at work and all she said was ‘sorry’.
Can you believe it? She didn’t send a stress relieve package. I hate unintentional women.
Met this woman at Woolworths and she offered to pay for my food and I thought she was just being generous then she suddenly asked for my numbers.
I should have known that women always expect something in return.
Coaches…
Grab their attention…hold their attention…use their attention.
Why?
Because their attention is their prime mediator for learning and for behaviour change.
Make their attention your priority in your coaching sessions. Make their attention the relay station that helps the information you want to get across to them marinate in their short-term memory and eventually seep into their long-term memory.
Attention…short-term memory…long-term memory.
A message of “Eyes on me…” and then tone, volume, and pace helps your players note importance (their brain will work towards reward “this is important to get right” and away from punishment “this would be a problem if I get this wrong”).
With ‘eyes on you’ and with importance set…keep your instructions lean and lucid…short, simple, snappy…
Short, simple, and snappy because you want their working memory to hold the information you have for them and make sense of this information (with relation to their current knowledge).
Short, simple, and snappy because working memory is small and weak and can a mere three chunks of information (approximately).
Eyes on…
Tone, volume, pace
Short, simple, snappy
And then use their attention…
Direct their attention through your session design, your instructions and through your questions.
Make them look, help them hear, tap their thinking.
To look…attention on external clues that are important to them.
To hear…attention on your instruction that mediate their knowledge.
To think…attention on their current knowledge of the game, the problems that have been set for them, the solutions they might use.
Great coaches are constantly looking to help players direct their attention in appropriate ways in order to learn and to change behaviour.
Coaches…
Grab their attention…hold their attention…use their attention.
The Diagonal Ten - A Counter-Attacking Positional Strategy
A thread on the diagonal ten position which offers defensive stability and quickly turns into a counter-attacking position on transition.
Once you see it, you'll never unsee it in a game.

Divide the first line of the press!!
Rarely used with an outside centre-back moving to a central position.
One we are big on. Centre back divide, full back low.
