Tuchel should strongly consider a return to the hybrid 3-4-3/4-2-2-2 system that he used in the League Cup semi-final & at the Bernabéu last season. That four man box midfield naturally overloads Conte’s double pivot. RLC in the hybrid wing-back/right 10 role.James at RCB vs Son.
Notice how Chelsea always go to "the Antonio Conte formation" whenever they’re in trouble. Azpi returns back to RCB, rudiger becomes a starter again, Alonso is suddenly released whatever dungeon he’s been locked in
Foundations were laid!
This thing Brozovic is doing is what a regista does. He’s actually showing up for the ball and keeping it moving, instead of pointing at where his teammates should pass to. Yes, I’m talking to you Jorginho
Because the system is so bad, so people have to work so so hard and can afford to have no mistakes
Systems usually cover the flaws of players, in this case the players have to cover the flaws of the system
Watching this game back now and getting the same odd sensation where it feels like a lot of the players are actually playing quite well (Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot, Mainoo) and yet the team doesn't look very good
English pundits were all speaking about Wilder’s "overlapping CBs" like it was the first time they were seeing it. I remember Azpi in the final third delivering balls into the box. No praise for mister Conte because the nationality on his passport is 🇮🇹 not 🏴
If Simeone cops this guy. He has to watch Inter’s front two for the last two years under Conte and find a way for Vlahovic and Felix to replicate what Lauti and Lukaku did. They’ll be so so dangerous
Happy Birthday to me, Asked a few people to make a video saying one thing they like and one thing they don’t like about me. Some people had too much fun, and I’ll deal with them later trust me 😉
Timi is painted as the villain, meanwhile Kamara is the actual villain. He’s the only one who both sides trusts and he betrays both sides while acting like a saint

So nobody would talk about how the best games this weekend were all from Serie A. Napoli v Juve, Milan v Lazio and Roma v Sassuolo were all clear. Calcio 🇮🇹
I’ve been to a lot of shows but this one takes the crown. Instrumentalists, backing vocalists, lights, performances, crowd, security etc!
He was even wearing an itachi shirt!
Do you know how hard that is??
@KOJO_Cue
you have some hardcore fans out there ❤️
Yes! I see the vision with the ball, the problem is off the ball. Can Szoboszlai do what Henderson has been doing for years to provide balance to the RHS? That's the million dollar question
Trent + Szoboszlai would be an absolute joke in terms of chance creation. Deep creator + between the lines creator. Add Salah’s wide chance creation on top. Wow.

Was telling someone today, everything he does just seems very weird. Overly eager, poor decision making. Almost like he never had a proper football education, like he went straight from the streets to pro level
- There aren’t up to five things in the world better than arguing. The ability/process to convince someone that you’re right and they’re wrong is unmatched
Man, I have to keep reminding myself that this is a long journey and it won't come easy. Perseverance and Patience aren't just keywords here, they are principles.
