Social media has created this culture of intolerance to different opinions, disagreements or adjusting your opinion from further learnings, which is hilariously ironic cause all of the most successful ideas we know of itw never started from just a single original opinion
I am a CBSE Class 12 student.
After receiving unexpectedly low marks in Physics, we applied for photocopies of my answer sheets through the CBSE reevaluation process.
Today we received the copies.
And I am shattered because the Physics answer sheet uploaded by CBSE is not mine
Kobbie… Improvisation, creative solutions, he’s really really unique. The last 4/5 games now he’s playing at some of the best levels I’ve seen him be at in our shirt. Both with the ball & against the ball.
“Players Make Tactics.”
You’ve probably heard this phrase before. If you’re still unsure whether it’s true, just look at how PSG played vs Barcelona, it might give you a clearer idea.
🧵 on how Enrique got the upper hand vs Flick.
Kobbie Mainoo: ‘Marker Manipulation’.
-Starting position in the blindside simplifies his decision making.
-Uses Bruno’s pass to turn away from pressure w/back-foot -> into vacated space.
-Scanning quality > quantity.
-“Stiff arm”.
Allows him to maximise this situation.
Achieved individually or collectively, the ability to change rhythm leads to unpredictability.
Rigid passing circuits with predefined actions affect the natural rhythm and individual solutions, eventually becoming predictable patterns (playbooks).
Passing or playing in 3s is the true coached automatism merged within the strategy, which players have the freedom to make decisions and change rhythms individually (players are the tactics), whilst remaining within the collective idea of connecting in 3s.
Staying within the idea of playing in 3s, players are able to individually act-react to live situations posed by the opponent, opposed to forcing a passing circuit set at predefined rhythms and touches.
There are strategies which naturally promote dynamism, making the distances of passing in 3s produce more motion and therefore more rhythm changes.
But passing in 3s is not solely a small space concept and is a collective idea also applied across larger/any distance.
Connectivity between players is not tied to proximity, but a collective idea flexible to different distances and situations.
Affecting the opponent is the aim, which is achieved through the ability to react to the situation posed whilst remaining strong in acting your idea (philosophy).
Therefore, strategy from coach and ability from players should both have the capacity to change rhythms for unpredictability.
A very potent sequence to bypass the press. The CBs reaction stems from the opponent's movement:
>you move I move.
>you vacate I occupy.
It requires timing and knowing where to move to[diagonally].

>like a 2-way road, both parties moving opposite directions.
- short preseasons
- extensive travel
- key starters arriving late to tours
- key signings in last week of window
all leading to capped game plans for wins in past decade (for UCL qualification) as skill is upheld by aerobic base (fitness).
repeated high quality actions is key for IP, OP and transitional application and decision making.
IP; players of mixed instincts-natures resorting to type once fatigued, ultimately preventing a set style of play.
OP; physicality (duelling) is a skill, not to be confused with athleticism, despite the two overlapping. an aerobic base also platforms this skill. repeated pressures is a demand for counter pressing approaches which is part of the United DNA.
