Scouting Report: Mathis Amougou The speedster who shifts gears instantly. Lightning fast acceleration and deceleration! What is there to like? A Thread!

Generally I would agree with the 3 at the back. With Jackson out we need to incorporate Nkunku and get him firing. Having him in those central zones is key, but Cucu isn't the best holding width, so having Neto as a wingback is key. Overall gives us the best balance in attack, etc

Rational creates the need for Romanticism Positional play(PP) is the zonal occupation of specific zones to gain advantages. In PP the football only starts when the structure is in place. The "structure" is the most important. Given the importance of structure, coaches are often the ones deciding proceedings before the players. Due to the unprecedented success Pep had with this model of coaching alot of people started using his ideas and it even permeated into youth football. Given PP is a very rational/structural way of playing, almost every game looks the same and thus people wanted abit more romance. Relational play is a ball-oriented approach where players position themselves around the ball handler, dynamically adjusting in relation to their teammates, opponents, and available space. It encourages "romance" through quick exchanges such as give-and-gos, escadinha combinations, etc. While this style thrives on spontaneity, it still acknowledges structural patterns like the escadinha. However, unlike PP these structures emerge organically through movement, though they can also be artificial. Relational play encourages coming to the ball and looking to form connections due to the proximity of your teammates, so it allows players more room to express themselves. Its asking players to take responsibility for the game. Positional play seeks to SOLVE football - By doing this the opposition does that, etc. Relational play seeks to EXPLORE football. It believes in the endless possibilities that football can bring and embraces the limitless. Its very applicable to life. There are those who try to plan out everything in their lives and have strict codes they follow in order to minimize danger, etc. There are those who simply allow the world flow and seek to explore its limitless. Personally there's no right/wrong. Its simply another path.

@AmukwayaWL Which is my point

@speedfreak97688 Estevao on the wing with Palmer inside - Ideally want rotations between the 2 in possession. Reece as the RCB to make over/underlapping runs when we have the ball.

@UC_nuell @JohyanCruyff @MobyChe @SS____899 Wrote something on this here :

@speedfreak97688 Paez is a 10. He can play in both half spaces, but can be developed to play in the pivot. Ideally you want him as a 8(but needs to work on his out of possession game)

@Tushar_9_ I havent really been scouting GKs so I cant help you here. I think the club probably stick with the GKs we have for next season. Petrovic has done well on loan.

@anany1707 Delap is decent, but I will pick Osimhen, Sesko, Samu, Barry, etc before him. I rate him, but not as much as some on here.

@geniuznate1 There are lots of good articles out there that detail the differences. I could write something small on my personal views on it.

@NiiNiiFC Generally think we will have to be more fluid in how we play with emphasis on keeping the ball even more. We would have to stop pressing high as well and use a mid block much more. If we do want to press high and play on the transition, Noni as the ST

@AmukwayaWL ??

@JHarrisCFC Think we can pull through if players step up but that's a 50/50. Honestly tough to say RN. I need to see our general approach in the next 2 games

@Kashim097 Not ready

@papa_yooo @fahdahmed987 🤣 🤣 you kill me man

@MobyChe then*

@CfcDeepDive Well said

@Pano_Footy Thing about Noni is you know he will be active and work those defenders
