A low block fails in the six seconds after the tackle
A big sprint count usually means your team spent the night chasing
Stopping is what hurts players, not running
Rotate the runners and leave your back pair alone
A press does not fail on the trigger, it fails on the second man
Your defensive line is really your goalkeeper's line
The three players who stay home decide how brave everyone else can be
Everybody marks the six yard box and nobody marks the cutback
The overlap's real job is to pin a winger who wants to be elsewhere
The pass nobody tried decided the half
The loudest moment in the ground is not the goal
Minutes are the wrong unit for a tired footballer
Asymmetric full backs are wonderful until you need to make a substitution
Five substitutions made the high press affordable again
Somebody will always be free, so decide in advance who it is
The centre back who steps out is the most underpriced player in the market
The goalkeeper broke every pressing statistic we had
