Typical English speaking view of the game that promotes material actions instead of the subject. Hot take, you need eyes to play football?

The great Frank Lampard talking with the great Rodri about scanning. Mr Lampard calls it picturing, borrowing from his father’s term for it. “Pictures, pictures, pictures” Frank Lampard Snr used to shout from the sidelines as he watched his son progress at the West Ham Academy. Why? Because all team invasion sports are the same. At the heart of these games lie the skills of anticipation and decision-making. Players who scan their performance environment give themselves the opportunity to: 1. See opportunities to exploit them 2. See dangers to deal with them 3. See patterns to understand the game around them So, of course, it’s critical to instruct a player to scan. And, of course, creating activities in sessions that encourage scanning is crucial. But here’s the thing. Perhaps the most powerful way to promote scanning behaviour is to help players understand why ‘picture taking’ is important. So often, establishing the meaning underpinning behaviour can change behaviour. Useful can be to encourage players to understand that your team invasion sport is about actions and interactions. They constantly have to interact with their playing environment - teammates, opposition, space, ball, and target. Help them understand they are detectives of what’s happening around them. A Sherlock Holmes of the interacting elements emerging and dissolving, shifting and shaping around them. By moulding their interest in their performance environment, you help your players mentally in two ways. It places their focus of attention outwards - they get out of their head into the game - an external focus of attention. Importantly, it also increases their activation levels (alertness and readiness) due to a rise in their fascination with what’s going on around them (a dopaminergic link here, perhaps). Scanning, scanning, scanning Pictures, pictures, pictures …these are important instructions…but even more powerful could be to help players understand why they need to get their head up and start exploring the game around them.

Just watched some in-possession bits from Michael Carrick’s Middlesbrough, and although plenty of great accounts on here have already broken down how they set up with the ball, I thought I’d also share a few thoughts of my own. There’s been a lot of talk about their structure and the methodical, sometimes slow, nature of their build-up, and I largely agree with that. It isn’t rigid; players aren’t locked into zones at all times, but there is a clear recurring picture. The left back holding width, the right back tucking inside, the 3-2 base in build up. That structure is very evident, but I'm not going to talk about that. What really caught my eye was the intention to change rhythms across all three thirds. The slow circulation mentioned can very quickly turn into sharp vertical play or quick combinations, often without warning. The centre backs, along with one of the central midfielders, seem key to this in deeper areas. They are often the ones responsible for accelerating the game during a passing sequence, whether through sudden carries, changes of direction, switches of play, or simply finding a brave pass through the press. In the middle third, the use of a staggered midfield and central overloads allows players to operate on diagonal angles to find and link passes, and when you add the constant movement from the wingers and the attacking midfielder, it regularly sets the stage for UBTs or third man combos\runs, creates the conditions for these tempo shifts. In the final third, similar principles apply, especially in wide areas where triangles are formed to facilitate combinations. Wingers and fullbacks are clearly encouraged to take on their man in 1v1s, and pass and move sequences are used to increase the tempo. While a lot of this play happens out wide, targeting central zones through diagonals or cut backs is also a recurring feature. On the downside, and although I felt the players always seem to be on the lookout for opportunities to increase the tempo during these passing sequences, it sometimes feels like they wait a bit too long before executing a quick action. That hesitation is, in my opinion, what gave their build-up its “slow” reputation.
