Good afternoon,

A 30-minute class is now available for all subscribers on Eddie Howe's tactics against PSG last week in the Champions League.

Despite struggling in the first 20 minutes, Howe stuck with his 5-4-1 low press, which moved from and into a man-to-man press. Newcastle were unlucky not to win the game late on. 

In the collection, we cover the game in detail and include practices for coaching this strategy. We will add additional practices in the next day or two.

This is skill practice four from our beginners’ guide to coaching collection, designed to be easy to use, engaging, and to provide a fun, familiar way to help players master the ball.

Free for everyone!

The latest practice is a brilliant one to introduce turning within your sessions. 

The design is simple, and the goals can be replicated with poles, cones or an end zone.

Available for all subscribers. 

We are working our way through 'The Beginner's Guide to Coaching' 

The fourth session will be going up over the weekend. The first practice went up yesterday and is the warm-up. 

Have a great weekend, everyone. 

New live streams are now available for pre-registration. 

On Tuesday, we will discuss the tactics Eddie Howe used in the game against PSG as he shifted between a low press and a high block.

Our tactical analysis has been published and is open to subscribers. This is a 30-minute discussion from our live stream earlier today.

In it, we cover Arsenal's risk-taking (or lack of) and how this starts on the first build-up line of the attack. We hope this gives you an idea of how to build on against a 4-4-2 as we discuss the shifts in tempo, the role of the 'six', and how to control lines one and two when in possession. 

Find the link here; practices on how to build from the first line are due tomorrow.
