Why Do Programs Fail?
Clubs/High Schools/Teams Lack…
Vision
Specifics
Clarity
Consistency
So basically…there is no established
TEAM IDENTITY
Vision
“The basic methodological concepts must be
instilled in both the elite and
the base. At Porto I regularly met
with the youth and reserve team directors to
explain exactly how all the different teams
should play. That way no player gets lost when
making the step up. Everything is already trained
into his mind”
Jose Mourinho, Chelsea FC
Vision
FACT – All teams win, all teams lose
Can you handle either result and still…
Develop players capable of playing at ‘the
next level’?
Play in a way that’s recognizable, regardless
of talent?
Vision
Programs need to clearly establish a (club)…

1 holding midfielder, 2 attacking midfielders
2 wing-forwards, 1 center-forward
Specifics
“I convinced Gullit and Van Basten by telling them that
five organised players would beat ten disorganised ones.
And I proved it to them. I took five players: Giovanni Galli
in goal, Tassotti, Maldini, Costacurta and Baresi. They
had ten players: Gullit, Van Basten, Rijkaard, Virdis, Evani,
Ancelotti, Colombo, Donadoni, Lantignotti and Mannari.
They had 15 minutes to score against my five players. I
did this all the time and they never scored. Not once.”
Arrigo Sacchi, Former Mgr., AC Milan
Specifics – Phase Play
4 Phases of the Game
In-Possession
Transition from In-possession to out-of-possession
(Just lost ball)
Out-of-Possession
Transition from out-of-possession to in-possession
(Just regained ball)
“5th phase” – Set pieces
Specifics – EXAMPLE U16/U19
4-3-3 In Possession
Play from the back with composure
Outside backs push up high and wide to provide width, overlaps, and crossing
Holding CM drops deep to receive ball and distribute/keep possession
Holding CM also acts as central defender once ball moves up, providing a 3-4-3 formation in attack
Attacking Mids create ‘windows’ to receive the ball on the half-turn and dribble/create
Wings stretch defenders and cut in for through-balls
Center Forward acts as false 9, coming back to receive, dribble, create
Specifics – EXAMPLE U16/U19
4-3-3 Transition from “In” to “Out”
6 Second Rule/3 Pass Rule – person closest to the ball puts
immediate pressure on the opponent
Anyone close enough may double-team
Back 3 or 4 step up to form a high line and offside trap
Everyone steps within 1 yard of their mark/nearest opponent
All must happen IMMEDIATELY
If still out-of-possession after 6 seconds/3 passes, go ‘home’ and
settle into defensive organization and utilize ball-oriented shifting by
position
Specifics – EXAMPLE U16/U19
4-3-3 Out-of-Possession
Organize back from 3-4-3 into regular 4-3-3
shape as quickly as possible, if necessary
Shift and apply pressure as a team in the correct
format
Maintain high defensive block (if possible) along
with pressing so as to shrink the field to one side
Specifics – EXAMPLE U16/U19
4-3-3 Transition from “Out” to “In”
Outside backs and wingers get wide quickly to
stretch the opposition and provide outlets
Look for quick outlets high up the field to initiate
immediate counter-attacks
If no option, play 1-2 touch and find the safe
pass until we have proper shape and/or
opposition settles back from initial pressure

The Rondo
Rondos (4v0,4v1, 3v1, 5v2, 7v2, 9v2)
Seen in England as ‘having a laugh’
Seen in Spain as the most important activity from U9 to 1st team
“Rondo, Rondo, Rondo. Every. Single. Day. It’s the best exercise there is”
– Xavi Hernandez
“If god wanted us to play football in the sky, he’d have put grass up there”
– Brian Clough
“In a small space a player has to be able to act quickly. A good player who
needs too much time can suddenly become a bad player” – Johan Cruyff

Rondo – On Field Application
The Importance of Overloads
By Kieran Smith, AD Alcorcon (ESP)Many people believe that players only have to be good technically and have some kind of support in order to retain possession or to play a possession style of play. The most commonly misunderstood aspect of the possession style of play is the need to create overloads all over the pitch.
An overload is when you have more players than the opposition in the particular area of the field you are playing in. This is one of the main reasons playing with only one striker has become popular, because teams want to overload the midfield.
Coaches and managers can set up their teams to have an overload in a particular area, like midfield, but you need to coach your players to have the tactical intelligence to know when to move “out of position” to create an overload.
We saw in the last slide how rondos can appear in match form and how we can create overloads in each area. These are not exhaustive solutions and players need to be able to understand when/how to create an overload anywhere
