🧏‍♂️ @LaurensJulien asks Vithina about ‘rotations’; Vithina describes it as ‘mobility’

so here’s a 10 tweet thread of PSG analysis where ‘freedom’ is accurately referred to as positional mobility (terminology: it’s important)

[Fathalli @FathalliMo]

Bournemouth, I’m begging you. Get a better camera angle next season.

[Isaacyts @iyts0213]

@Atalanta_Report Completely another style of Palladino...
not saying from Gasperini to Juric... 4 different styles that would be

[Isaacyts @iyts0213]

@kunbrate1 Btw, I don't see Pal as that bad, he brings a style of tilting and tight combination play with improvisation, which we much lack as a team to dominate under Gasp, whose football is more of running and robotic play. Should be in the right way, but the squad wasn't there today

[Aaron 🇬🇭🇧🇪🇯🇵 @aar0n_nt]

I critiqued Elliot Anderson v Brentford

[Isaacyts @iyts0213]

@kunbrate1 The individual mistakes are awful...
If the mentality has somehow shifted from winning points, these games should be giving chances for other players than those who lack motivation...

[Isaacyts @iyts0213]

@FPL_Instinctive Brighton-esque Finishing? lol

[FootballEconomist @FootballEcon_]

Como’s Jacobo Ramón is generating interest from some of Europe’s biggest clubs, including Arsenal and Chelsea.

Playing for Real Madrid's second team less than a year ago, he's developed into one of the most impactful and rounded defenders in Italy.

Clear shades of Dean Huijsen.

Van Hecke X Dunk: Brighton's Incredible CB Pairing

It's arguable that this center back pairing is one of the best if not top 3 in the league, on the ball.

Brighton are lucky to have them both as they are very key in Hurzeler's system.

Short thread 🧵

[Isaacyts @iyts0213]

@kunbrate1 Think it's reasonable that we have a dip when we lost Lookman, Charles, and Ederson, which was our spine last season, and backup players are forced to step up in this manner

Like how Sulemana has evolved, he can possibly complement Zale to replace the great of Lookman.

[The Purist @ThePurist_]

Most analysis falls short when looking at attacking players.

Neither the data or 'eye test' really give us the full picture of their value. But why? 👇📺

THE WIEFFER CONUNDRUM

In this piece I analyse what Wieffer's best position is, and how to best mitigate players' weaknesses and amplify their strengths.

— Mistimed tackles and a lack of mobility
— A momentum problem
— Systemic influences
— Volume of duels

1/4 (Thread) Different pitch shapes is a favorite constraint of mine, as it limits the players´opportunities for actions without decontextualising the game. Here are a few of my favorites: (1) Hexagon shape. It allows us to move quickly from build-up to finishing the attack.

[Kieran Maguire @KieranMaguire]

I’ve seen Easter Island statues move more in 90 minutes than Brighton at the Amex today…and show better ball control.

[Furymaker @Furymaker_]

Damn, wrote my first article and I hope it's a good one.

Spent a lot of time watching and analyzing footage, deciding which direction to go with this one.

So it's my scouting report on Marco Palestra, this time bit more detailed, with ton of video footage and data.

Keep in mind I didn't want to risk too much by posting everything, but I included some links if you're interested in them.

Hope you enjoy this one!

The phases of Raffaele Palladino.

Phase 2 is actually more about raising the techno-tactical ceiling rather than ossifying socio-affective advantages to encourage more player freedom - which is phase 3 Palladino.

A coach I’m always in awe of because of how well he sees the game

[Isaacyts @iyts0213]

@kunbrate1 The fee is fine, but not sure how we handle this transfer window if Sulemana, Sarmarzic, Maldini, and even Lookman and Ederson are all possibly leaving, especially for the latter, whose quality isn't easy to replace.

[Jon Mackenzie @Jon_Mackenzie]

It’s been fun noticing recently with the upheavals in the managerial situations at some of the big European clubs.

And that brings us steaming back to the topic of last week’s thread because #DidYouNotice how Michael Carrick’s ‘risky’ approach earned him a win over Mikel Arteta?
