Formations no longer exist in Football.
Positional Play is the Now and Future.
Gone are the days of conventional setups and no rotations.
But there’s always an origin of play(442/343/433).
All the elite teams play like this.
Chelsea need to be up next.

When I watch this video of his 91 goals, in fact any video of him from 09-15, one thought always pops into my head.
If you were lucky enough to watch him in that era, week in, week out, it is nearly impossible to think anybody ever comes close to him.

At the micro level we need to understand the differences in terms of how the players on the ground are interpreting concepts like ‘ball progression’.
Martinelli's form swing is why I laugh at people who kept asking me why should we get another top LW when we had Martinelli.
Form is temporary, profile is permanent. Martinelli's profile is that of a pure inside forward/CF.
Our system doesn't really use that.
India just passed China as the most populous country in the world. Why?
Because of the biggest accident in history
Look at where people live in India. What's that band up north?

Top Barcelona goal. Top tactics. Playing a 3-4-3 box formation. Xavi finally letting Pedri play his real position and he’s looked threatening in the half spaces. However, as good as the beginning was, the last 25 minutes it was Atletico attacking and Barca living dangerously
Unsure whether City's transition to a 3-2-5 this season is related to Haaland. Might be me looking for things and attributing the biggest tactical change to the biggest personnel change when there is no significant correlation or Haaland excluded, they would've changed regardless
The modern day centre-forward is asked to be more creative and influential throughout all phases of possession. Those that hold this role end up on the ball not only in the final third, but every step of the way. Here is my analysis of the 'Creative Link'. https://t.co/ateUCbyDfB
