Tactical Analysis: Chelsea 3-0 PSG Blues Crowned Champions of the World
This is a good point that @htomufc mentioned in a recent video about Chelsea's low block against PSG. Unlike the other teams that have defended low against PSG, Chelsea were willing to track the forwards who would alter their position. In the below situation, you can see Ruiz…
Chelsea demonstrated maturity in its low press. Staying compact, keeping pressure on the ball and offering a strong transition presence.
Maresca has used the 5-2-3 low block before in a match against Manchester City (away) where Chelsea didn't have much of the ball. But there were many differences from that performance compared to the final against PSG. Personnel-wise: - Neto joining the backline meant that…
Chelsea did so well with their high block and press. Made it really difficult for PSG to progress through the lines. However, when they did manage to push up and pin Chelsea back, Maresca wanted his team to be pragmatic. So, they defended deep in a 5-2-3 low block with Neto…
The signings Everton has done this summer are very impressive. Building a very exciting and promising squad. Looking forward to watching them next season, which isn't something I've said in the past. Let's see if they can finally kick on in the league.
"We adapt for every game." "What I have to do is put some foundations in place for the team to remember the good things we put out to practice last year and for the new players to understand the principles."
The signings Chelsea are making this summer look more purposeful than a lot of windows, why? it's to achieve 3 main things No 1 Increased quality to hang even more in the UCL and add to quality depth to cope with the schedule, 2 per position at least.. 🧵
Spencer keeps impressing with his detailed threads. This is another one that's simply brilliant. Well, his work is complex, but he illustrates the points as easy to understand for the readers as possible. It's really worth reading. Do check it out.

On paper, Isak would still fit in at Liverpool. Imagine a front four of Wirtz-Isak-Ekitike-Salah. Then having Gravenberch and MacAllister in midfield. Kerkez and Frimpong flying down the wings offering support. Very offensive team but they could make adjustments for balance by…
🚨💣 Understand Alexander Isak remains a target for Liverpool even after signing Ekitike… but depends on Newcastle. If Newcastle open doors to an exit and #LFC sell Diaz, they can bid after direct contact made 10 days ago. Isak, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 in concrete talks with Al Hilal so far.
There are a few things that I find interesting here: 1. James and Caicedo are positioning slightly to the right side of the field rather than holding a very central position. This makes the passing lane wider for Sanchez. So, his accuracy in terms of placement doesn't…
This is a build-up idea I like from Chelsea, used effectively against man-to-man pressing in midfield. ✍️ By positioning both midfielders in the same zone, they drag their markers and open up a direct passing lane forward. Thread 🧵 📹 @LiveTagPro
