Danny Röhl - Style of Play Lots of High-Level Experience as an Assistant/Coach with the GermanNT, Bayern Munich & Southampton before going out on his own at Sheffield Wednesday. Highly thought of by everyone he has come across, players & staff, but what does his side look like: > Adaptable Formations & Style > Mix of Play from the Back & Direct > High-Press into Deep-Line > Structured Defence & Counter-Attacks With the Ball > Build Out from the Back > Front-5 Hold Opposition > Quick Rotational Movement > Numbers Committed to Box for Crosses > Can Go Direct & 2nd-Ball > Always +2 Rest-Defence to Protect Against Counter-Attacks Without the Ball > Press High & Protect the Centre > Defensive Line Adaption (Well-Drilled) > Drop into Mid-Block & Numbers Back Behind Ball > Quick Counters > Always +2 Rest-Defence to Protect Against Counter-Attacks A very well-respected young Coach with a wealth of experience as a #2 at the Highest-Level & loved by Sheffield Wednesday fans, that's always a good sign. Anyone that is willing to come to Glasgow Rangers currently gets the full backing 💙

Rangers Rest-Defence is a Riot Disciplined teams operate with a clear Rest-Defence Structure normally with a Box-4 or minimum +1 Defending. Rangers here, there is multiple errors through poor instruction, lack of concentration or just bad decision-making in the moment: > Chukwuani Should Drop After Pass to Neil > Neil Should Pass to McCrorie > Aasgaard Could Also Play in McCrorie This left 7 players ahead of the ball when Rangers lose it and allow them to be countered with a 5v3 initially. The reason for the Box-4 Rest-Defence structure in this video: > 1 or 2 Extra Men Defending > CB's Can Drop for Ball Over the Top > Central 2 Can Take Short Passes & Press > Stops Dangerous Transitions > Recycles Attacks as a Result Spain throughout the Euros and WC did the Box-4 you will see in this video & barely gave up a chance & that's with a much higher calibre of player. Motherwell also performed a Box-4 or at least +1 Defending in large spells last season and had a hugely successful defensive records for most of the season. It requires constant concentration and players that live in that mindset throughout the full 90.

Sébastien Pocognoli: Style of Play A look into Scotland's New Manager's "Style of Play" from his time at USG & Monaco. Variety of formations but seems to favour a Back-3 with a very fluid midfield but principles of play remain the same & it's all about dominating with or without the ball: > Play Forward First > Break Lines Aggressively > Direct and Second Balls > High Numbers in the Attacking Line > Counter-Pressing > High-Block into High-Pressing (4-3-1-2) > Transition in Same High Numbers Now, dominating with the ball can mean different things, his side were very flexible and didn't "Overplay" in Possession and was happy to go quite direct: > 9th Highest Possession > 11th Accurate Passers > 4th Shots at Goal A very good Set-Play side during his time at USG, 15 of his 71 League Goals were from this. Main concerns of his "Style of Play" is how quickly his side can be transitioned against and be quite open building from their own defence: > Big Gaps Between CB to CF > Playing Direct to WB Resulting in Counters > High Opp. Numbers in Transition At Monaco, he had times where he did play a Back-4 and is clearly a flexible coach that can adapt to players & that is another exciting green flag for the new manager.

You can configure how much computing power it will use I show you how to set up a Web Search Agent in the video. A few benefits here: 1. This is great for complex research tasks 2. It's really easy to add this like a LEGO piece to a more complex workflow 3. Create an agent once, and reuse it with different inputs 4. The agent adapts to your use case as you work with it By the way, Nimble published a whole library of templates and research agents you can reuse and modify.

Chris Finch on the Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle pairing this season “I hoped that it would be a little bit better. There’s no basketball reason why we shouldn’t be able to be a little bit better there. I think they kind of both play in the same rhythm, but I feel like it kind of feels like it’s maybe ‘your turn-my turn’ a bit rather than having like a two-man game such as Denver has with Murray and Jokic, but they both have the ability to create for each other, which I think came and went at times. I think that could’ve been a little bit more consistent, but I don’t think it’s a bad fit... But yeah, they both kind of play fairly ball-dominant. They like to create a lot of their own offense, and that sometimes makes it a bit of a tough partnership just because you’ve got to remember to also have that ability to keep the music playing as we like to say, keep the ball moving.”

Haiti v Scotland: Pre-Match Analysis Scotland are BACK BABYYYYYYYY but they cannot underestimate Haiti, they have real quality at the top-end of the pitch. Haiti will likely be in a 4-4-2/4-2-3-1(1 CF Dropping): > Wide Play, 1v1 & Overlaps to Cross > Quick Transition Play > Deep Block & Counter with Pace > Can Be Exploited on Counter > Weak Defending Crosses Scotland will likely stick with the friendly 4-4-2: > Crosses from Wide Areas > Robertson Overlapping & Doak 1v1 > Mid-Block to Protect Centre > Struggle Defensively in Transition 2v2 I feel like a Back-5 "Out of Possession" for Scotland would minimize Haiti's real threat, both teams will fancy being able to get at one another and that leaves for an exciting game. Let's Go 🫶

Russell Martin - Attacking the Opposition This is a video a little more on the context of Scottish Football: - Low to Mid-Blocks - Mid-Presses - Men Behind the Ball in their Own Half Russell Martins sides have a great blend of formations (442/433/532 used in the Championship): - 3 to 5 Players Pinning Defences - Deeper Midfield Runs from 2 or 3 Attackers in-behind - They Rotate that consistently Positives from Overloading Attacks: - 3rd Highest Scorers - 2nd Highest xG - Most Shots on Target - 2nd Most Chances Missed - 5th Best Crossing Stats Negatives, unfortunately with commitment to such a highline & counter-pressing, comes a lot of goals conceded: - 14th Best Defence (Lots Conceded in Transition) - 3rd Best xG against adds confusion but makes sense from Counter Goals It is "Possession with a Purpose" with good mix of Direct Play and Building Out & is a real exciting prospect. Add to that, the fact Swansea and Southampton both had a MASSIVE Squad clearout the year he went in, he is well-placed to deal with what's about to happen at Ibrox.

There are so many options in the attack with the 2-6-2. It is like playing with Overload without using the Overload tactic while simultaneously having a better defensive shape. So many times the opponent was forced to commit to one of my attackers which left the other completely free. Also pay attention to Anderson’s movement. He is dropping back with the 2 CBs to form a back 3 even when in possession in the ball. The only time he really joins the midfield is if I am in the final third trying to break down the opponent. I’ve tested this with Pedri in Anderson’s position to see if I am able to consistently form a 3 man midfield when in possession to cause an extreme overload but it looks like it is something coded into the game to create more stability when you lose the ball. hmm…

Rangers Press - Aarons 🟥 You have to create overloads, be dominant without the ball & then earn the right to do stuff with the ball. An adjustment last-night & that I feel is required for Celtic on Sunday, especially from GK/Deep Restarts, is: - Front 3 Across 18-Yard Box - Two 8s Behind - 6/CDM Organising them - Allowing Back 4 to Deepen When this pass goes to the Brugge RB: - Aasgaard is too far from good pressure (LW would be closer) - RB has time to look up and select the pass with time - Souttar, Djiga & Aarons should all be dropping off - Dealing with a "Simple" Long-Ball Aarons' then compounds all those minor errors/issues into a major one & then it's over unfortunately. Give Ralston time to lift his head + Maeda space to run into & it could be a long old afternoon

Group C: Scotland v Brazil - Decider Potentially the biggest game in Scotlands Footballing History but especially for this generation with a point required to guarantee progression. Scotland Potential Success: > Switching to a Back-5 to Protect Space > Counter-Attacking Down Left or Doak > Crosses into the Box & Players on the Edge Brazil Potential Success: > 1v1 Wingers & Freedom to Create > Runners Behind the Line of Defence > Protecting Against Counters If Brazil get their set-up right, I fear it can only go one way but we have seen with Cape Verde, DR Congo and Curacao that teams can defend out for the point they require. Come on Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

First look at the new Overload play style. This was against the Legend AI Inter Milan team that was using Out Wide in a 3-1-4-2 setup. It definitely feels like a more upgraded version of Possession Game and you do get a lot of options showing for the ball making it way easier to deal with opponents who like to Pressure spam. Out Wide will definitely be a HARD COUNTER to Overload so be careful if you are using Overload and you run into someone like Xabi Alonso who has Quick Counter and Out Wide because if you lose the ball you will be at a big disadvantage when the inevitable cross field switch comes. We will have to see how it settles after a few weeks but it is best to play in a formation with LMFs or RMFs so you can switch the play against Overload if you do win the ball back so you don’t get instantly suffocated and lose the ball.

Hunter Dickinson on his one season playing for Kansas men's basketball "I had expectations coming in of what it was going to be like. And, you know, it was even better than I expected to be able to play for Coach Self, to be able to play with these guys and just be able to play and Allen Fieldhouse...you can kind of almost dream of, you know, when you're growing up playing basketball to be able to play on the stage for this program. You know, obviously it didn't go the way we wanted to, But, you know, I had a lot of fun this year and, you know, I wouldn't trade it for the world."

After playing Hytale a lot, having fun, and doing everything I wanted to do, it's time to get to work! This is the first official iteration of my texture for Hytale! I hope you like it; there's still a lot in work-in-progress, but I hope you can understand the vision I'm aiming for. The goal is to create a more anime-style texture, focusing on a Stardew Valley-like style, with cozy and cute pixel art style. I hope you enjoy my journey! Lots of work ahead! #Hytale #HytalePartner

This World Cup has shown how Argentinian players are just built different, and it was interesting because, in the press conferences, both managers addressed this. First, Tuchel talks about the Argentinian value of the ball and how they protect the ball at all costs, how they manage those small spaces, and how they learn this from a young age. He references culture, and this is exactly it. A child playing in a certain environment leads to that. Not every Argentinian child is on the national team, but it raises the ceiling. It creates a certain type of style and a certain type of player. Then Scaloni also references his culture. He sees them play without fear of losing. It comes from playing in an environment where you are constantly faced with the potential of losing and being able to play with that pressure, right? They don’t fight against it. They play with it. They use it. And I think this is where youth football coaches should really take note. This does not mean we should copy and paste Argentinian culture into every training environment, because culture cannot just be copied. But the values within that culture can be inculcated in every training environment. The value of the ball. The courage to receive it in small spaces. The ability to protect it under pressure. The confidence to keep playing after a mistake. The willingness to play with the possibility of losing rather than constantly trying to avoid it. Those values can become part of the environment we create every day. They can be present in the games we design, in what we praise, in what we allow players to struggle with, and in how we respond when they lose the ball. If every mistake leads to the coach stopping the session, giving the answer, or taking the pressure away, then players never learn to play with that pressure. They learn to wait for the coach. It was cool to see how two managers, at such a big stage, reference culture and the environments that kids play in when they’re young. Because the players we see on the biggest stage were not only created by tactics or coaching information. They were created by environments that taught them what to value, how to relate to the ball, and how to play when there was something to lose.

It creates a certain type of style and a certain type of player. Then Scaloni also references his culture. He sees them play without fear of losing. It comes from playing in an environment where you are constantly faced with the potential of losing and being able to play with that pressure, right? They don’t fight against it. They play with it. They use it. And I think this is where youth football coaches should really take note. This does not mean we should copy and paste Argentinian culture into every training environment, because culture cannot just be copied. But the values within that culture can be inculcated in every training environment. The value of the ball. The courage to receive it in small spaces. The ability to protect it under pressure. The confidence to keep playing after a mistake. The willingness to play with the possibility of losing rather than constantly trying to avoid it. Those values can become part of the environment we create every day. They can be present in the games we design, in what we praise, in what we allow players to struggle with, and in how we respond when they lose the ball. If every mistake leads to the coach stopping the session, giving the answer, or taking the pressure away, then players never learn to play with that pressure. They learn to wait for the coach. It was cool to see how two managers, at such a big stage, reference culture and the environments that kids play in when they’re young. Because the players we see on the biggest stage were not only created by tactics or coaching information. They were created by environments that taught them what to value, how to relate to the ball, and how to play when there was something to lose.

Creating an immersive Hanging Gardens of Babylon world with 360° GPT-Image-2 & Codex in 1500 images. I've tasked GPT-5.5 in Codex to construct a whole world that you can walk through 'google street view' style. It took 1,500 of 2:1 images that can be turned into a 360° immersive images, so you can teleport yourself to any point and look around in all directions. It is not completely perfect, it is a bit jumpy as you move, there must be a more careful way how you can plan out the image sequence, but I still find it quite fun. Hosted version & an open sourced repo links below, hope this gives you some cool ideas to create new worlds that does not yet exist. I recommend planning it out carefully ahead of time and doing something a bit less ambitious than this, but make it good.

Novak Djokovic says for 99% of the players, reaching a Grand Slam final and a Grand Slam semifinal so far this year would be a very good result, but for him, it’s not enough “At this point in your career, does it still remain about winning titles? Or can you leave a tournament like this with some satisfaction of being able to still compete at that high level and reach a semi of a major?” Novak: “Last year I reached 4 semifinals. This year out of 3 Slams I reached 1 final and 1 semifinal. For 99% of players that would be a very good Grand Slam result, for me it’s not good enough. Because I’m blessed and cursed to be used to something of the highest degree in terms of results and achievements. In some way I’m also dealing with myself in a sense that I’m telling myself, look, this is amazing that you’re still able to play at such a high level and push the youngsters to the limit for Grand Slam titles. But at the same time, I always have the highest expectations for myself. It’s kind of that internal battle of what I’ve been through for 20+ years of my career, what the goals were, the expectations.. and trying to also balance it out and trying to be a bit more humble in that sense. I still enjoy the thrill of competition. Maybe I don’t enjoy all the hard weeks leading up to big tournaments, putting myself over and over again through a lot of pain, physically mostly. I’m glad that this tournament the body held pretty well. Pretty much every other tournament the last few years it was always something. I feel like when I’m healthy I’m still able to play as a top 5 player, still able to compete at the highest level. I like it. I like this life. Tennis has given me everything in my life and has allowed me an opportunity to become who I am. At the same time of course there’s always a question of how far do you wanna go, what you wanna play, how you wanna play, etc. I try to take it, in a sense, a day at a time and see how I feel. I don’t have any pressure or no one is forcing me to play. I do it because I really want to and because I still can play as a top 5 player. Let’s see what’s the future brings.” (via Wimbledon Press)
