Training the position game in football: strategies and advice
The positional game is a football strategy that seeks control of the ball and space through possession, mobility, pressure and balance. It has become popular in recent years thanks to coaches such as Pep Guardiola, Marcelo Bielsa and Jürgen Klopp, who have shown that success in football not only depends on the individual talent of the players but also on the collective understanding of the game. The positional game theory implies working three fundamental aspects: the creation of spaces, mobility and pressure. To train this strategy it is recommended to work the possession of the ball, the movements without ball, the pressure, the defensive-offensive transition and the definition. With proper training, you can improve the collective understanding of the game by the team and take it to the next level.
