Prolifik Tactics
We will continue to rely on our possession game, looking to move the ball quickly through midfield and feed our attacking trio in space to do what they do best. This starts with our entire back five being excellent on the ball, and we have now reconstituted the GOAT possession midfield in Xavi, Busquets, and Iniesta, with Di Stéfano playing a similar role to false nine Messi.
Di Stéfano frequently drops deep to supplement the midfield, creating space for Stoichkov to make runs in behind cutting in from his nominal left wing role. Garrincha plays as more of an orthodox wide forward who relentlessly attacks the opposition left-back, but will occasionally drift infield to get into goalscoring positions as he did at the 1962 World Cup.
Djalma is the more conservative of the full-backs, while Facchetti covers the left flank with constant overlapping runs to provide width, combining with Stoichkov and/or Iniesta as they both alternative moving into that space on the left.
Out of possession, we will play high up the pitch and try to constrict the opponent's time and space. Again, it starts with our mobile and athletic back five, with Van Dijk and Alisson in particular being experts at managing a high defensive line. Our midfield trio is well versed in the art of the high press, and Di Stéfano offers tremendous work-rate as well.
Skizzo Tactics
What’s better than four Balon D’or winners in their winning years? Adding a fifth. Luka Modric slides into the midfield and Nedved moves wide left to offer his power and industry from the flank, cutting inside and operating out wide.
With the opposition boasting a Barca trio in midfield, and operating in a high-press system, we have two of the best midfielders at operating on the turn, and being able to take a touch and escape pressure. We have ball players from deep who can find passes to break the lines and attack at pace, and we have forwards who will put in a shift defensively and run themselves into the ground for the cause.
The defense can keep it compact at the back and look to limit space, and spring forward attacks with Cafu on the overlap, and passes through the lines to the midfield to find Scholes to ping balls over the top, or Modric to drift between the lines, or Nedved and Best to get the ball at their feet. Benzema up top to work the channels and link play, and has already had success against a Van Dijk/Allison duo.
