Tactical Periodization is a proven successful football coaching method. All training is driven by tactical training. It allows you the coach, to improve all other attributes (technical, conditioning and decision making) at the same time, within every single tactical practice.You will learn how to use periodization to train your players at the correct intensity for each day of the week, making sure they are always prepared tactically, mentally and physically for competitive matches. Your players (and team) will react quicker, be sharper, and make better decisions in all tactical situations.Tactical Periodization also helps you accelerate your players' understanding of their positional roles and responsibilities in an efficient way, which ultimately improves the team's tactical performance.José Mourinho: "It's all planned and researched so we create these training sessions that are harder than a game. It gives us confidence knowing we have trained to a greater intensity."The "Game Model" guides the entire training process. Training must "model" the game through specific practices (specificity) that include all the tactical game principles designed by the coach. You will learn the principle of performance stabilisation, so you can maintain your team's high performance levels throughout a full season.José Mourinho: "For me, training means training in specificity, creating practices that allow me to enhance my principles of play."

Other examples are Vitor Pereira, Leonardo Jardim, Brendan Rodgers, Marco Silva, Nuno Espírito Santo and André Villas-Boas. Many other top coaches (Pep Guardiola among them) have adopted part of these Tactical Periodization principles, building their training method around the development of a game model and its principles, using the tactical dimension to lead their training.This book includes the background and development of Tactical Periodization, the Methodological Principles, The Game Model (specificity), Tactical Organisation in the 4 Phases of the Game, Analysing the Previous Match Performance and the Next Opponent, Weekly Training Objectives, Training Sessions for a 1 Match Week and Training Sessions for a 2 Match Week.There are many Tactical Topics and Training Practices including: Building Up Play from the Back and Creating Overloads Against a Compact 4-4 Formation Attacking with "Third Man Runs" Reorganising into Defensive Block Positions Pressing as a Collective Unit + Fast Break Attack Dropping Off, Compactness and Counter Attack with Switch of Play Defending Direct Play into 2 Forwards and Winning the Second Ball

L'obiettivo della pubblicazione è quello di evidenziare principi ed esercitazioni per la costruzione e lo sviluppo della manovra (attacco posizionale).La finalità è quella di far interagire i giocatori all'interno di sequenze strutturate, aiutandoli a prendere la giusta decisione, incoraggiando la creatività e stimolando la qualità esecutiva.Sono complessivamente 40 le situazioni di gioco analizzate, tra cui: Rotazioni di tre centrocampisti Le dinamiche della costruzione dal basso; La creazioni di spazio per il superamento delle linee di pressione.Il libro comprende 66 esercitazioni utili sia a delineare le strutture tattiche (rotazione dei centrocampisti, movimenti del 3° uomo, ecc.), sia per sviluppare le abilità dei singoli (apertura del corpo per la ricezione, trasmissione di prima intenzione, ecc.).Un libro da leggere e da cui prendere spunto per approntare un metodo per lo sviluppo della fase offensiva della propria squadra.

Athanasios Terzis, allenatore con licenza UEFA "A", ha prodotto un'analisi approfondita di 9 diverse situazioni tattiche che ricorrono nel gioco di Marcelo Bielsa, supportandole con 9 sessioni di allenamento complete (35 esercitazioni).In particolare il libro spiega le idee tattiche di Marcelo Bielsa e la filosofia di gioco per la costruzione dal basso contro squadre in pressione alta sul campo, analizzando in modo completo gli schieramenti utiilzzati; 4-2-3-1, 3-3-3-1 e 3-4-3.La filosofia offensiva di Bielsa include un mix di trasmissioni palla corte e lunghe, per inviare palla al giocatore libero attraverso 'i giocatori di collegamento', la creazione di superiorità numerica, invitando fuori posizione i giocatori avversari per poter sfruttare gli spazi creati.Marcelo Bielsa è un allenatore che gode di grande considerazione, famoso per lo stile di gioco innovativo, le sue tattiche e schieramenti. Ha avuto una grande influenza sul calcio in tutto il mondo e su altri grandi allenatori, come ad esempio, Pep Guardiola, Mauricio Pochettino, Jorge Sampaoli e Gerardo Martino.Lo scopo del libro è quello di utilizzare le idee tattiche innovative di Marcelo Bielsa per fornire una guida completa su come costruire efficacemente gioco contro squadre in pressione alta sul campo.Per costruire gioco dal basso con successo, la squadra in possesso deve giocare attraverso 4 fasi:Fase 1: Fornire un'opzione di passaggio al portiereFase 2: Muovere palla verso un giocatore "obiettivo" o smarcatoFase 3: Creare superiorità numerica in una zona specifica del campoFase 4: Sfruttare la superiorità numericaOgni capitolo contiene un'analisi approfondita per ogni situazione tattica, basata sulle idee di Marcelo Bielsa, seguita da una sessione di allenamento completa per aiutare tutti gli allenatori ad adattare le tattiche e le sessioni di allenamento per la propria squadra.Questi, nello specifico, i capitoli di cui si compone il libro:CAPITOLO 1: La costruzione di gioco dal basso contro 2 attaccantiCAPITOLO 2: Muovere palla verso un giocatore "obiettivo" sul lato deboleCAPITOLO 3: La costruzione di gioco dal basso contro 1 attaccanteCAPITOLO 4: Creare e sfruttare situazioni 3 contro 2 vicino alla linea lateraleCAPITOLO 5: Soluzioni offensive in una situazione 3 contro 3 vicino alla linea lateraleCAPITOLO 6: Creazione e sfruttamento dello spazio in un 4 contro 3 (o 4 contro 4) vicino alla pallaCAPITOLO 7: Costruzione di gioco contro il pressing ultra-offensivo

Le transizioni rappresentano nel calcio una fase cruciale. Sia la squadra che recupera il pallone che quella che lo perde devono sapersi riorganizzare rapidamente per sfruttare i vantaggi e contenere gli svantaggi che derivano dal nuovo contesto tattico. All'interno del volume, l'autore ha studiato e evidenziato gli accorgimenti tattici utilizzati da alcuni dei più conosciuti allenatori del mondo nel momento in cui la squadra da loro allenata perde e recupera il pallone alle diverse altezze del campo. Le situazioni analizzate sono le seguenti:transizione positiva con recupero palla nella parte bassa del campo (terzo difensivo)transizione positiva con recupero palla nella parte mediana del campo (terzo centrale)transizione positiva con recupero palla nella parte alta del campo (terzo offensivo)transizione negativa con perdita della palla nella parte bassa del campo (terzo difensivo) transizione negativa con perdita della palla nella parte mediana del campo (terzo centrale) transizione negativa con perdita della palla nella parte alta del campo (terzo offensivo) In funzione delle scelte tattiche delle squadre allenate da Klopp, Guardiola, Ranieri, Simeone e Mourinho l'autore evidenzia i principi di gioco e le relative esercitazioni da utilizzare in campo. Complessivamente sono 23 le sessioni di allenamento complete (98 esercitazioni) incluse nel libro e realizzate attraverso giochi in spazi ridotti, situazioni di gioco e esercitazioni tattiche.E' possibile utilizzare queste sessioni complete sia per mettere in pratica le idee tattiche utilizzate da questi "top coach" sia per trovare nuove soluzioni a tutte le varie situazioni che la tua squadra deve affrontare in fase di transizione positiva e negativa.

"'You cannot be brilliant when you disappear when you don't have the ball. It's impossible. Football is a connection between what you have with the ball and without the ball."Jürgen Klopp"The best moment to win the ball is immediately after your team just lost it. The opponent is still looking for orientation where to pass the ball. He will have taken his eyes off the game to make his tackle or interception and he will have expended energy. Both make him vulnerable.""Football is about emotion and speed. It's a transition game"."If you win the ball back high up the pitch and close to the goal, it is only one pass away a really good opportunity most of the time. No playmaker in the world can be as good as a good counter-pressing situation."¿Jose Mourinho"What tactical trends do you see at the top level of the game? Transitions have become crucial. When the opponent is organised defensively it is very difficult to score. The moment the opponent loses the ball can be the time to exploit the opportunity of someone being out of position. Similarly when we lose the ball we must react immediately.""Everybody says that set plays win most games but I think it is more about transitions."
