Amazing piece Billy, leveraging Martinelli’s pace can disrupt their poise - Porto that is. But the key is an improved confidence when those switch crosses get to him. Nice one!

3-0 next week and we move. I feel it in my bones, Billy.

Thanks Billy, a really good read, feel like a learned a lot from this one. I appreciated the use of the videos from FIFA, they really illustrated the point perfectly.

Onwards!

Just a brilliant read. Lets me see a bit why Moroco had such a good run. Glad you mentioned Zenchenko as a top passer. He has such a knack for the right touch for the needle on tight spaces i

the opponents box, and his passes always put the recipient in a position to succeed.

Absolutely riveting read, many thanks!! I was really interested to watch Saturdays match of the day, where many of the goals were exactly the same as you suggested, half space crosses to the back post where it's headed in.
