Currently there are two major schools in football with its variations:
- positional football, with Pep being the founder and everyone else following,
- relationism, which is really evolving in Brazil with Diniz and now some teams in Europe are trying to implement it, like that Malmo coach
Don't get confused. I am not talking offensive/defensive approach, formation, high/low line, and all that.
99% of football you see in Europe is positional despite the very different approaches
Fabregas seem to try to look the relationist way.
There are some elements of relationism in Hansi's football, which is positional up to an extent.
When attacking players find themselves close enough in central zones they try to freely and instinctively combine with each other
Well hopefully Cesc doesn't go full Diniz.
That bloke has never had a points record above 1.8 in his career.
@DonAK , with the money behind Como, we should have a very good idea of Cesc ability by the time replacing Flick comes around.
