@@virupakshawalla5734 Reason why great players make bad couches is because they expect so much and hardly have any connection with less talented players. Imagine Henry telling a striker. "Get the ball at the halfway line and go score a solo goal." 😂 Or " why would you pass back. Its only 3 defenders marking you. Dribble them all and score" I heard an interview once. Where Henry said something like. Focus on 1 thing at a time. Beat the first defender. Then start thinking of beating the second. And after that start thinking of the third. When you look up. It's you an the goalie.
This Arsenal team has LEVELS to go, Arteta has seen how the league is a Marathon, not a sprint and you can see how much better his in game management is now. Second half of the season, you’re going to see this Arsenal team go on a massive run
@@Poussyeater-w5e well the weird part is what Thierry highlighted. Football systems are normally quoted based on the "defensive" setup and attack isn't mentioned. Hockey was the opposite and based on the attacking setup. So it's interesting now there is such change between attack and defense systems they are beginning to overlap more
If you try to look up about football strategy and evolution you gonna see football manager back then copies formation or strat from other sports, it's so fun because it's evolving never a static.
Jamie basically asks "do you prefer a 2-3 or a 3-2." A great question. Marcelo Bielsa has one rule in the back when his team is on the ball: "numerical advantage." So to answer that question, the 2-3 or 3-2 is dictated based on the other team and how they position players. The other team against Arsenal or Real would mostly be a deep block positioned to defend, win the ball, and counter. They will position release players around the opposition; trying to predict where the ball will release in open space. So create numerical advantage and respond to the opposition; whether 2-3 or 3-2...it does not matter. In the video analysis Arsenal are basically moving into their default 2-3 and they can do that because the other team has 1 up top. Likewise RM starts in 3-2 early in the build out of middle third because as Thierry says "the other team has 2 strikers." That is the difference, it is simple counting and like Bielsa both managers will want numerical advantage out of the back and teach transitions on how to create their 5-5 attacking structure adapted to the opponent.
You reminded me of the US counter attack against Algeria at the 2010 World cup, the algerians were buliding the attack and they expected the counter, but they didnt knew how to predict and deal with situation cause the US had numerical advantage in the attack which means they had a lot of posibilties to go either left or right to score but they've gone right
And by the way, manchester united and real madrid developped a counter attack technique where if the player in the middle has the ball, he would go all the way to his right for example just to pass to the player far on the left without seeing him so the opponent wouldnt predict where he will play the ball, it also opens the gap and give the goalscorer a better angle to score
What a shame. An American network that commentate our football to Americans and have the best hosts arguably in the game. Then we are stuck with Karen Carney, Rio, Neville and Owens who stink the studio.
They are willing to invest to popularize football in the U.S. as the 2026 World Cup is coming. Also, here, sports pundits are allowed to be who they are and just make jokes as much as they want. If you check out the NFL, NHL, NBA, etc...they have the most fun pundits. I think it's just the regulations that require players and pundits to take media training (which makes them a robot) in the UK.
as an American who loves the game, I am grateful for what we have here in this group but also understand that we may not always be fortunate for too long.
Yes, the ridiculous level of talent France has at it's disposal, if I was their manager they'd be undefeated aswell. Gary Neville looked like he knew what he was talking about in front of a touch screen but was a rubbish manager in the real world.
@@alancawfield6549gary wasn't a rubbish manager. He had no experience and couldn't speak the language. Emery could speak English but not good enough and he couldn't get his point across to the team and they struggled. Look at him now at Villa. Not comparing Emery to Neville but 100% the reason he struggled was because of language barrier and he was managing in a tough league in prime Barcelona and Real Madrid era. He picked the wrong job as the first job. He should have been an assistant manager first at club level and then joined a championship club
And there is a reason why he failed at Monaco and in the US. True he is knowledgeable, however to transfer that to the players as a coach is a different thing. Great analysis nevertheless. Talk is cheap in the end !
That’s why I love football!! You need to read the game!! Fair play to Ancelotti!! He’s been able to adapt to modern way of playing like Pep unlike Mourinho who’s still stuck in the past!!
Mate, Ance adopts such approach because literally have no strikers and thin depths which he deserves the compliment 😂😂... But Carlo needs to be criticized too for his subs game or players selection this season
You guys are absolutely best in the business, without a doubt! One small request if I may,please make more of these videos when they do the breakdown of the matches tactically especially Thierry,it can after the matches or tactical previews before matches because these guys have so much knowledge (especially Thierry) about tactics and what is actually happening on the field and why it's happening.
Thierry Henry and Ronaldinho are by far my favorite living football legends, they are the reason I fell in love with football in the first place, they are part of my childhood... Henry should have won at least one or two ballon d'or in the 2003 and 2004 seasons, he was so unique and underrated back then, he was almost unstoppable and genuinely a very good all-rounder authentic player. ☯️✌️
Wow now i understand the formation change more even though it was costing us at the beginning of the season we gave to try to adapt as we were outplayed by City last season and they played in a similar way. As we were stuck on our old way of defending this come to show you that things are being implemented on the training ground.
This is what football needs!! Less "was it a penalty" analysis and more real game analysis. They don't all need to be at this level of course, but that's how you make the game grow rather than becoming "viral" or a "ratings war".
The Athletic had a great article that had similarities to this a couple of weeks back. What was most notable was the large gaps in the centre of the pitch between the two groups of five. They showed how Arsenal exploited that gap a couple of times against City. It's actually what Messi is a master of. Stalk the line where the last defenders are for a period and then very quickly move back in to midfield to collect the ball to confuse both defence and midfield. This is what Jesus is so good at doing. Odegaard, Rice and Havertz need to really improve in that respect as they drift rather than purposefully move in order to surprise.
Micah is like me in a group project who does not know what is going on, but tries to look involved. Jamie is the guy that keeps asking questions and TT is the main man doing the heavy lifting.
the way tyhey congrats him at eh ends lmao every core arsenal fan knows of the 2 3 5 formation as awell its varient of th 3 2 5 when up against harder teams and as well as arteta experimental 3 1 3 3 or 3 1 1 2 3
There are a handful of teams who do the same in the PL, or variations of it. tbf though, they have to ask questions to educate the general audience watching. Basic teaching/training tbh. I used to do it in the military. Ask a co-trainer who was teaching a group, some obvious questions, not because I didn't know the answer myself, but to ask on behalf of those being taught... or if the trainer missed something/or wasn't quite clear, occasionally.
The biggest problem for Thierry Henry, is translating the immense knowledge he has from his mind to another mind, in a titrated and distilled manner,so that others can take those pieces and accordingly form the concepts thereof in their own minds and see football the way he does and be able to translate that knowledge to actionable sequences on a daily basis and most importantly , in game situations! That’s why I keep talking about guys like Lampard , Gary Neville, Thierry Henry, Scholes, Wayne Rooney, Gareth Southgate, Tony Adam’s, Jamie Carragher, Steven Gerard who should have all been great managers but so far aren’t; It’s an issue of communication more than anything. When you listen to Wenger, Pep, Arteta players, they always have one thing in common; they talk extensively about the extreme attention to detail that these guys bring to their coaching. Everything is exposed and explained in a deep and rich manner, in a specific way to a specific layer! That’s why these coaches always talk about the “right profile” of a player! What they mean is that they need first of all smart, curios and eager to learn profiles, students of the game. Some players don’t care about the education side of the game and just want to play…most of those guys will never be great coaches later in life! They’ll just do what THEY know, and when their career is over, they’re finished in football too…it’s just the memories and stories. But others, who invested in communication skills, are able to get these lofty coaching concepts on board during their playing days and then later on transfer them to others in a coaching capacity, thereby elongating their football experience and rewriting history in different phases like Grasshoppers, if you know what I mean. I love Thierry Henry as an Arsenal fan, but I hear he was terrible as a coach! Aggressive, Impatient, easily angered by repeated failure to do “what he demands”… and all this time he didn’t see that the problem was his inability to simplify his ideas for others to grasp! This is the same problem for these young guys , Gary Neville Lampard Scholes Gerard Rooney and them. That’s why you see them do what they do as Pundits! Force us to believe they know enough; what matters is to make it clear to your players in the shortest time possible! I hope this helps many who try to go into coaching. Pundits really spoil football sometimes when you don’t know this about most of them.
I need a breakdown of tomiyasu though. We saw against city, he's a left back but a lot of the times he was a winger, further up than the actual winger. And against Sevilla we saw him in a striker position and even sometimes as a right winger which is as far away from your position as you can get. How can this not leave a weakness in the counter?
Tomiyasu is very fast and pretty tall so great for long balls, and all ball skills are good. I've been waiting for Arteta to use him like this when the wingers aren't working and teams want to sit back. Are we more vulnerable? Not really. The opposition wants to double up on our wingers and box our midfield and man mark whoever comes into overload the midfield. Chelsea did this better than anyone so expect to see more long balls to Havertz and tomiyasu unless Arteta can find another solution. Odegaard is getting marked out of the game.
Henry is cooking

True, I enjoy their punditry so much
The system Thierry covered for Real Madrid is the standard field hockey formation. 2-3-5. 2 full backs. 3 mids and 5 in attack

The biggest problem for Thierry Henry, is translating the immense knowledge he has from his mind to another mind, in a titrated and distilled manner,so that others can take those pieces and accordingly form the concepts thereof in their own minds and see football the way he does and be able to translate that knowledge to actionable sequences on a daily basis and most importantly , in game situations!
That’s why I keep talking about guys like Lampard , Gary Neville, Thierry Henry, Scholes, Wayne Rooney, Gareth Southgate, Tony Adam’s, Jamie Carragher, Steven Gerard who should have all been great managers but so far aren’t;

Chelsea did this better than anyone so expect to see more long balls to Havertz and tomiyasu unless Arteta can find another solution. Odegaard is getting marked out of the game.
Tomi is basically switching position with rice when he receive the ball up top. Rice will cover his position when he go to 9 positon
