Since first reading about Tactical Periodization, I have been fascinated with it. I have read so many books and read so many articles on the subject. So, here is my thread on how I use TP to develop a game model 🧵:

The longer I coach the more I believe that football comes down to two things. Space Timing Where is there space, how can we create space, what space should we take away? When should we arrive in the space, when should we create the space, when should we take away space?

So excited to start something brand new! Here is the idea... I give 4 coaches a topic, they each design an exercise and submit how they would teach it. All 4 are posted in a thread with a poll. We get to see how people do things differently, and vote on our favorite!

The De Zerbi and Brighton Build Up De Zerbi has looked to mix his build up play with Brighton to avoid predictability. Below is how he links the play through the centre of the pitch with a 4-2-4 or 3-4-3 formation. Look for these patterns tonight against Palace.

When building out your practice session, TP looks at the physical load required based on the Microcycle. This basically means based on what the team has done recently (game/practice etc..), and has coming up, what physical load is required today.

@MT_Analysis Love the dropping in to occupy the opposing winger, thus freeing up the center back, AND the weak side 10 filling that space left. Great use of moving and occupying opponents to create space for teammates.

The first misconception I see is people think they must have their Game Model fully built out before they can implement TP. I think it is the opposite. Having to break down your Principles to Sub and even Sub-Sub principles for every session helps you to create a GM over time.
