"...we know that physical qualities may have a physiological ceiling..." - Dr Paul Bradley (FIFA)

Players won't keep getting faster and stronger forever. Speed is not the most valuable resource in football.
Accelerating the efficiency of actions is a limited outlook.

[Jamie Hamilton @stirling_j]

Big teams use predominantly positional attacks.
Defences are now able to go man to man more often and negate positional attacks.
Positional coaches don’t like trying to outplay man to man defences because it requires too much movement.
Use set pieces/long balls to score instead.
