Elite teams need a midfielder they can throw into the box when chasing a goal. A tall midfielder with elite technique for his frame — capable of dominating the pivot, controlling a three-man midfield, and attacking the box when the game demands it. I call this profile : Crashers🧵

This doesn't mean form doesn't exist. Confidence is real. Flow—State is real. Fitness is real. But a streak alone isn't proof of any of them. Before you say "he's in form, start him" — check: Is he getting better chances? Better positions? Higher touch count in the box? If yes — that's form. Start him. If none of that moved — you're watching randomness with a story attached.

Flip a coin 20 times. Somewhere in there, you’ll get a run of 4 heads in a row. What’s the probability of heads on flip 5? You said 50%. Because the coin has no memory. Now, your striker scored in 4 straight games. What’s the probability he scores in game 5? You paused. You thought “he’s in form.” Same streak. Completely different answer. The math didn’t change. Your brain did.

"He's been on fire lately. He has to start." We've all said it. We've all believed it. But what if the streak you're seeing tells you nothing about the next game? Quick — guess the answer before you scroll 🧵

Will never get those recommending a new player on the daily when we have equal/better in La Masia. Worst still, they are okay with selling the likes of Balde or Gavi for players they have never even watched a full 90mins off. Those who were wanting to sell Cubarsi in Decemeber, you know who you are. Learn to stand behind your own. Reactionary fools.

Exactly why I've only ever preached for the Leão / Acheampong / Pacho level profiles. La Masia is currently outputting a golden generation of talent. We don't need to sign for the sake of signing. The gaps are minimal — and that’s exactly why the bar has to be at its highest. Identify what’s missing, fill it with only the very elite. Wait for the right one if needed. Especially up front. Just look at our history. Non-world-beaters should not be allowed. We are FC Barcelona. With all due respect.

Seeing reports that Bayern München are only prioritising 'super elite' players in the transfer market and will fill the rest of their squad with home-grown academy graduates. That should be the squad-building blueprint for every elite club with high-performing academies.

Lamine Yamal with another example of winning the “duel before the duel.” He reads Burn expecting the run in behind (no pressure on the ball), so he fakes it with a sidestep to create more separation. Ball manipulation after is another topic.
Fathalli@FathalliMo

Off-Ball Movement is Your 12th Player. Barcelona, Bayern, PSG have all answered the “How to beat the current m2m meta?” question in this last CL round. But beyond all the rotations and position swaps, it still comes down to the small battles. Win the “duel before the duel” and everything else opens up More 👇🏻 footballanalysishub.com/post/off-ball-…

This is the most underrated passage in the whole piece. When Olmo and Ferran came on, Roby clocks that Ferran was already making the run before Olmo's decision even happened. Not because he was coached to. Because he knows Olmo. That's not tactics. That's a team that genuinely knows each other. And right now that might be Barca's most underrated weapon.

Fermin is the most underrated player in this Barca side and it's not close. (He has had a crazy growth rate when you deep it) Pick-and-rolls with Lamine, blind-sided runs, constantly available in any pocket of the pitch — and sustaining that same engine across 90 minutes at the same output. Just re-watch the 4th goal. His engine isn't just athleticism. It's knowing exactly where to be before the space even opens.

@RobyPoto wrote one of the best breakdowns of the Barca-Newcastle tie. 4 points from the piece deserve way more attention. Concepts that explain WHY it happened, not just that it did. Thread 🧵

Truth is though, there probably won’t be another Messi in the next 50 years. But Dowman does share many of the same natural gifts relative to his size. No doubt he’ll be one of the few players who can affect a game in all phases — practically positionless because his skillset is too large to be boxed in.

Saw Max Dowman in what I believe was his first ever 1st-team appearance for Arsenal. My thoughts were exactly as written — he reminded me of Messi. The balance—ability to breeze past men 15 years his senior like likework. The real generational talents don’t need your validation. They force their way in to first-team football early. That alone should tell you everything about the ceiling. Even then, allow them years to reach it.

Live Review 🤓 — Max Dowman 1– Apart from Leao, he was the only other player that got people off their seats. 2– He reminded me of freaking Messi, that’s the only way I can put it 😂 Shoutouts to all the Hale End lads. They were proper adorable and stayed close to each other the whole time.

@bbenditlike Hasn't scored against Chelsea,Real,ManU,City,Gala and when the games are tough and they need someone to step up to save them it's always Szobo not him so his game changing ability ain't there yet but with time maybe but not yet

If Barcelona can pull off a 100m 9 — Hugo Ekitike is the only right answer. Every flaw you’d name with Julian, Kane, Oshimen? He covers them all. Everything those three do well — he does better. Play out wide. Facilitate. Capacity to score 35/40 goals on top of it all. Difference is he’s faster than all of them—Has a wider range of finishing and has every sign of being a big game player. Youngest of the lot at 23 too. And when you remember he’s 6’3 coupled with the calibre of passers in our squad? Argument over.

@CFCAlphaZack8 Won’t say too much to embarrass you here but go look at Liverpool”s game this season. Without Eki they would be in 15th.

@RondoAlchebz I disagree brother. Diomande would cost as much as Barcola and Barcola is better than Diomande. Barcola has proven it too. Besides, PSG had Pacho/Hakimi/Nuno in their back line and an incredible duo in midfield. Think different perspectives!

Need a goal and nothing’s working? Just shoot for the stars with a pass. Air Ekitike will be there to save you.
