    If you pay close attention, inter always plays a full back/wing back as a right center back, that's what makes it dynamic as the players put there assume multiple roles (pavard/darmian) and are very natural playing close to the touchline, on the left side it's a different approach , bastoni usually do underlapping runs and is great moving the ball forward and makes great runs, also is quite accurate in passing, while dimarco is an early cross man. The teams has alot of options when going in front

      The wing backs and the outside centre backs are completely interchangeable players with the exception of Denzel. But even he has the height for an outside centre back. Left side has Augusto Di Marco Bastoni right side has Pavard Bisseck Darmian Dumfries.

  • @ballersfindaway
    @ballersfindaway 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video mate! High pressing teams have become an antidote to the number of teams that want to constantly play out of the back and retain possession... I've often wondered if the solution to this is as simple as "knock it in behind" or find a traditional number 9 (As city sometimes do with Haaland) But the relational movement of players seems like the perfect solution... I wonder if more and more teams will adopt these approaches!

    Do you think it’s important regarding how a team wins a game instead if they won the game. When I say how I mean the types of chances the team creates and the amount of control a team has in both boxes. As a lot of football fans say a manager plays ‘good football’ like it is a big deal when there’s more to football than playing good football. For example alot of people say De Zerbi plays good football which somehow means his a good manager because he plays good football I’m not saying De Zerbi isn’t a good coach I’m just using him as an example . I think How you win is more important than playing good football what do you think? As you can play good football and still not have control on a game so the good football that your playing doesn’t mean anything. Another example I heard recently someone say Ollie Watkins wouldn’t join United because Villa play good football. I’m not saying Ollie wouldn’t or would but I think it’s a lazy excuse to say because they play ‘good football’

    • @pstionalplay
      @pstionalplay 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      When you play good football, you increase your chance of winning. I think De Zerbi with the current Brighton squad is still over-achieving. I believe you meant proactive or brave football vs a more pragmatist/flexible approach. In that sense, in the past, I was always thinking the proactive style over the score, but nowadays I am more into flexibility, teams that can play any type of football comfortably, but that's a personal thing. I am not saying this is right or wrong :)

    • @lw_2
      @lw_2 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@pstionalplay I agree with what your saying but I believe having control in both boxes gives you an advantage in games. For example you can control a game from a defensive aspect by not conceding many chances that is control to me. When you watch a team play what do you look out for that suggest to you that they are a good team or bad team. An example could be how a team plays out of the press. Also why do you think Poch is struggling as Chelsea manager?

    Thanks for this video abi. When I think about how we can beat the man-marking press in build-up, I could have found three solutions: a long pass to the pivot striker if you have one, a strong pass series with one touch, and players who can dribble vertically.

    • @mastermirror3888
      @mastermirror3888 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The three solutions you mentioned are effective and essential. However, since Inter don't really have any of them, they have to play it in their own special way. Inter do not have a striker who can constantly run behind defenders, or very strong one-touch passes(they can do it sometimes, but not often enough), or someone who can dribble vertically(Inter have the 4th least dribbles per game in top 5 leagues)

PRIMO anno vice lo scudo ma conte e debole nelle coppe SECONDO anno lotta per lo scudo e perde per arbitraggi horror , in europa viene eliminato dal liverpool (inter-liverpool=0-2 ) MA gioca senza barella ( espulso col real madrid in una partita inutile ) nel ritorno liverpool-inter=0-1 MA viene spulso sanchez al 70' altrimenti avrebbe potuto recuperare ... TERZO anno parte male in campionato per diversi infortuni e anche qui arbitraggi sfavorevoli , ma l inter era GIA' piu' forte del napoli infatti vince 1-0 a milano ... perde 2-1 a napoli ma l inter gioca in 10 dal 15' minuto e l inter non aveva obbiettivi .... IN EUROPA perde nel girone col bayern monaco MA la 1' giornata gioca con riserve e senza barella (scelta ) , nella 6' giornata perde ma e gia' qualificata e gioca con le riserve ... e arriva in finale e SECONDO ME se gioca dall inizio con lukaku avrebbe vinto la coppa QUARTO anno ( questo) in italia domina e batte tutti i record ... in europa fa' un girone non ottimo MA in pochi hanno visto che gioca (tranne col benfica in casa) tutto il girone con le riserve e arriva lo stesso primo ... passa secondo per differenza reti ... Quindi ripeto questa inter e forte da 4 anni ... ma da 3 anni con inzaghi e forte anche in europa ... non ha vinto per dettagli ... ma in italia con l inter in meno di 3 anni ha vinto gia' 5 coppe Grazie e FORZA INTER !!!!!

    I think another key things that should have been mentioned is the squad depth in defence and midfield (certainly not in attack, sighs). Dualities like Carlos Augusto/Di Marco, De Vrij/Acerbi, Pavard/Bisseck, Frattesi/Barella. Cjalanoglou/Asllani, Darmian/Dumfries, now with the addition of Buchanan, have really helped us not only to deal with injuries, but also to seal the games with 3-4 substitutions in the 60-70th minute.

    As an Inter fan, as much as I love our team this year, I do see two issues: - In some games we have not been cynical enough, mostly because of our 4 attackers this year. Lautaro has some (rare) games where he always seem to make the wrong choice when finishing (see match versus Atletico). Thuram sometimes lacks aggression and arrives on the ball late even when he had a massive advantage on the defender. Arnautovic is suffering from the pressure and is doubting himself too much which results in a lot of missed chances (see Atletico match again), and Sanchez style of play doesn't fit with our current formation. His best game this season was the last one against Lecce where he could focus more on the link up play while Frattesi pushed forward as a seconda punta somewhat. - where we have suffered the most has been with high press from young teams that run a lot or very physically fit teams. See for instance the games around Real Sociedad, or the game versus Atletico where they blocked the center of the field effectively neutralising Chalanoglu (who had his worst game of the season imo). Every good manager will have realised this by now, and if we want to perform against big teams in the UCL (If we beat atletico), Inzaghi will have to find an answer to that high press in the first half.

    • @pstionalplay
      @pstionalplay 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I see La Real game created some confidence problems for many Inter supporters ☺ I must say though: 1) Real Sociedad are exceptionally good at pressing high, 2) Inter used many rotation players in the first game at Anoeta, 3) Real Sociedad play with a lot of fire at home. 4) Inter played with many other teams who are famous with their high press: Fiorentina, Torino, Salzburg, Benfica, and most of those games went pretty well. 5) And finally even against La Real at Anoeta, Inter eventually somehow didn't lose the game, stayed calm and went until the last minute. I agree with the problem occurring when the opponent man mark Calhanoglu, but Inter offer different solutions, we saw those solutions in Atleti and Roma games. Inter could still create plenty of chances. By the way, I also agree with you about your comments on squad depth.

    Inter's kryptonite is Domenico Berardi .. Jokes aside, Inter under Limone can be exposed in transition (if the opponent beat the counter press), since our CBs lack athleticism to cover space .. And our strikers can be stinks up in front of the goal .. Others things is pressing team like Real Sociedad for example create the most problem against us this season .. So that's something Demone da Piacenza need to find a solution ..

      yes but those matches we usually stay much lower with the defending line, see Milan which has very fast attackers.

    Hi positional play , If you could name 6 tactical trends currently in world football that you think football fans should know about what would they be?

    • @pstionalplay
      @pstionalplay 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Regarding out-of-possession strategies, I think the most clear trend is that the teams use man-marking when pressing high. Compact, high-line mid-blocks are also trending. With the ball, box midfield, inverting fullbacks, and 3-2-5 structure have become quite popular since last year. Not trendy but some things I like watching lately are Inter's positional rotations, Leverkusen's central compactness, City's use of the libero role.

      @@pstionalplay Thanks for replying, Here are some the trends that I’ve heard of Hybrid pressing, CBs inverting into midfield, baiting of the press/generating space, the positives of direct -> counter pressing to by press the first line of engagement lopsided attacking structures, rest defence/attack and relational ideas. What are your thoughts on these tactical trends and what is lopsided attacks and how are they performed and which teams in the premier league use lopsided attacks?

    • @pstionalplay
      @pstionalplay 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Most of them are used by all teams. Rest defense/attack have become common terms for coaches to consider defending with the ball and attacking without the ball. Similarly, many teams use hybrid pressing, starting with a zonal high press, pushing the ball to one side and turning man marking locally to trap the opponent. In fact, Inter's high press that I mentioned in the video is an example. Baiting became very popular especially De Zerbi's rise, libero CBs with Stones. I have never heard it as lopsided attacking structure, I believe what it means is that asymmetries and overloads. They are becoming more popular as well, especially against back 5s. I like the relationism topic, but although the people who are trying to introduce it have been doing an amazing job, I don't believe many people completely comprehend the game idea behind it, that's why I believe so many people use it a bit inaccurately at this stage, but it is certainly exciting stuff! @@lw_2

      @@pstionalplay Did Pep invent the CB’s moving into midfield as I only heard about it last season with John Stones? If you could recommend a few football tactics books to help with understanding tactics that we see today which books would you recommend?

    • @pstionalplay

      He certainly didn't invent it. Libero role has been around for a long time. For heavily positional teams, we can certainly consider Van Gaal's use of Rijkaard in Ajax. Actually, even Pep tried it with Busquets when he was at Barca in an el Classico. Later, at City, he tried it with Rodri as well, but it didn't work. I believe it worked very well with Stones because: 1) Pep really saw the value of the use of double pivot after De Zerbi moved to Brighton, 2) Stones can play this role with Rodri as the holding midfielder, 3) Stones can play this role with Ederson, who is incredible with the ball and can be a part of backline in build-up, 4) Rico Lewis, although he is super young and inverted from fullback position, showed what to do when you are inverted to midfielder position, 5) Stones, of course, has great technique and a great understanding of Pep's game. Regarding books, to the best of my knowledge, no book contains the latest evolution of football tactics, but I still think you can see a lot of similarities with today's game if you check Jonathan Wilson's, Marti Perarnau's, and Michael Cox's books. Also, you may find Spielverlagerung articles very interesting. Cheers! @@lw_2
