Much of the Red Bull ethos is centered on exploiting an advantage, finding market inefficiencies unexplored by other clubs. Unproven youngsters, players with extreme physical traits, young coaches signed years in advance - Red Bull has made a cottage industry (increasingly become one of global football’s empires) out of making the most of areas many football operations neglect.
In terms of unglamorous on-field activity, Red Bull’s tendencies perhaps show most visibly in their approach to attacking set pieces. Set pieces can be designed, drilled, and implemented and are usually the best indication of a manager’s control and attention to detail during training sessions.
