Before we begin, I would like to take a second to appreciate all the modern day coaches who make football incredibly interesting and fun. Football has evolved to a point where analytical thinking is almost a basic necessity of coaching alongside pure footballing brains.
Coaching a real life team is nothing like the simulation that most fans experience through video games. It is impossible to pin down the nuances that make a coach so vital in modern football. As such, those who can translate that bird's eye view during a real match deserve special applause and that's exactly why we are here--to look at all things tactical and see what we can infer from our observations.
