@between.the.lines609: ⚽ GOOD BUILD-UP PLAY DOESN’T JUST CREATE SPACE. IT CREATES PROBLEMS FOR THE OPPOSITION. Roberto De Zerbi explains how dropping his No. 9 and No. 10 into central midfield creates a tactical dilemma for the opposition. 🔹 Stay deep? Allow a numerical overload in midfield and give the opposition control of possession. 🔹 Press high? Leave space in behind for attacking players to exploit. 🎯 Coaching takeaway: Effective build-up play is about manipulating the opposition. Move players to create decisions, then exploit the spaces those decisions leave behind. 💭 Are your players simply keeping possession, or are they actively creating problems for the opposition? #BetweenTheLinesSport #RobertoDeZerbi #FootballTactics #BuildUpPlay #CoachingEducation
