Man City technical work, including pattern play consistently worked on this under Pep.

These PSG forwards pressing 💪

A one-hour class on the England v Argentina game is now available on the website.

Where my frustration lies with Arsenal. Arteta has so much right. These moments are the difference though. They break line one, break line two and then slow the tempo.

Mega thread on Chelsea v PSG (Part 1) Part 1 - Chelsea Out of Possession Before we cover tactics, it's essential to appreciate the energy and intensity Chelsea brought to the final. The success they had in the first 10 minutes fed that energy

The role of a single pivot in build-up. Rodri has been the master of this in the World Cup. Recognising the opponent's pressing patterns and moving to exploit them.

Slot and the Shift in Defensive Set-Up Liverpool, to counter the Palace 3-4-3, made some untypical tactical moves which ultimately cost them. Let's take a deeper look at it. 🧵

Spot the difference. The delay is crucial (Madueke) We are jumping on a live class in less than one hour to discuss the Arsenal press, how Silva and Rodri tried to manipulate it and the roles of Odegaard, Madueke and Zubimendi in particular.

Dembele leading the press as a loan striker, dictating Liverpool's play and allowing his wide players to jump.

The level of concentration needed for each defender has never been higher with the movement at the top level. ⬇️

Getting the press right, but the quality of the opponent breaks it. These are the instances where Arteta was referring to with "what they are able to do with the ball, with individual actions, I haven't seen it."

England Pressing v Denmark - heavily outnumbered in advanced positions - duel roles for Saka, Foden and Bellingham - lack of pressing support from Rice and Trent - large distances to cover to get pressure on the ball

The 'Rest Defence': What is it and why is it so important? It refers to an attacking team’s structure, below and around the ball, when in possession. Here's a breakdown: 🧵

Maresca's style focuses a lot on playing through. Jackson doesn't offer the same link-up play capability as Delap. These scenarios will allow for Delap to join the central build-up, and the wide players need to provide the beyond option.

Amorim’s 3-4-3 was tested last night against a well-coached Newcastle side that dismantled the structure in the first 30 minutes of the game. Tactical thread 🧵(Rated 18 for Man United fans) Animations of the systems and the related performance problems.

Chelsea will burn through managers if the hierarchy is chasing instant success. Isn’t that the Chelsea way, though? Maresca is no yes man, and the job he has done, and is doing, is fantastic. Reading between the lines, those above expect more.

A couple of Michael Carrick practices. Attacking transition

Ousmane Dembéle's Role - Champions League Final. Luis Enrique's side moved fluently through the four pressing systems, with Dembele leading the way. A 🧵 - The pressing systems - The level of the Dembélé press😻 (video below) - The supporting players
