[1/3] Thomas Tuchel, speaking after the match against New Zealand, said he was much more satisfied with his team’s second-half performance. According to him, the team played more within their positions and moved the ball with greater speed, unlike in the first half, when players

His comments highlight the importance that coaches like Tuchel place on positional structure and on the order created through proper spacing and distances between players. It is a way of fostering

We will always remember those who tried to play football beautifully as a sign of identity, belonging to a constructive process that does not alter and whose essence of play can remain intact despite existing within highly variable contexts.

More than a sporting achievement, this title represents the success of a project. PSG stopped relying exclusively on star players and instead placed its faith in a collective footballing idea.

How Unai Emery has turned Aston Villa into a fully fledged European force has been nothing short of remarkable, a far cry from the side he inherited three and a half years ago when they were hovering just three points above the relegation zone.

In the search for advantage, Catanzaro adopts a dynamic occupation of space through positional rotations, overlapping runs, and forward projections (see Cassandro in the action leading to the goal): a

[1/3] Catanzaro under Alberto Aquilani continues to offer tactical insights that lead us to reflect on the complexity of the game and on how it can be controlled, while at the same time opening itself up to the game’s intrinsic uncertainty, which no longer becomes merely a

New nuances within positional play continue to emerge: more individual pressing without cover, more compact teams organised to recover possession immediately and initiate another attacking sequence.

[1/2] The ability to adapt in a positional system is an important theme. Unlike other proposals, uncertainty and the game's variables are always controlled through order. For us, it is the structure that allows you to find initial advantages or self-organize

Once closed and antagonistic, subject and object, order and disorder, are now linked, at once contradictory and complementary. Within this framework, uncertainty becomes an integral part of complex organisations and can no longer be ignored.

This fluidity is central to their unpredictability and capacity to find solutions, as their base formation is merely a starting point before evolving into a variety of positional rotations and sequences within Fàbregas’ plans.
