New: Coaching the Number 9 – Como's Tasos Douvikas

The Champions League's top scorer does his best work without the ball. Our latest tactical analysis breaks down how Douvikas gets beyond the defensive line, with clips from Como v RB Leipzig and Manchester United:

• Stretch: staying high on the diagonal and blind side of the centre-back, and drawing him deeper

• Spin: the triggers to run in behind, the side-on body shape and curving the run

• Show: dropping beside and below to link the play, then going again

• Where to stand, how to stand and when to go: the details worth coaching with your own 9

The full collection is ready and includes today's live class, where we go through all eight clips in detail.

Hi Jeff, we have great counter-pressing practices in this collection. Let us know if you need any more support.

YUIAO They are the same set-up, but with different patterns. 

YUIAO Can you explain in more detail please?

Thanks for your feedback. We appreciate your point about making practice design accessible to more coaches.

Just to clarify, Keynote is Apple’s free software, not a program we’ve created. Our £250 course teaches coaches how to use it to design their own football practices, drawing on skills and methods we’ve spent years developing. The price reflects that experience and the work involved in turning it into a course.

We could include it in our subscription, but that would mean increasing the subscription price for everyone. As many of our members prefer using our existing practices rather than creating their own, we’ve kept the course separate so only those who want that training pay for it.

We hope that helps explain the thinking behind it, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your views.

The animations are done on Keynote, which is available on Apple devices. Keynote is free on Apple devices. Our Keynote course provides templates for creating animations, along with classes on how to do so. 

We have our Keynote course available, where you can create the practices.

Hi, you can find it at the link below. We are working through all of the individual practices before creating the collection.

New today: 3v2 Practice 09

The whites attack one primary goal with a keeper in it, and the halfway line decides what a goal is worth: one point from their own half, two from the attacking half.

That makes 39 practices in The 3v3 Game. The full practice is attached below.

YUIAO Hi, this is now fixed. Thank you for pointing it out.
