Four Tactics No-One Uses Anymore

How did goalkeepers have less than 50% pass completion! Just randomly kicking the ball would’ve been more effective than whatever they were aiming at!

Short passes by goalkeepers were invented by me in FIFA 2005.

The one that hurts the most is losing 9-0 😢

This is really poor data analysis due to its oversimplification. Nothing you say has any actual meaning

I love long ball route one football. Miss it compared to this boring possession based style everyone uses nowadays

Longshots is a primadonna issue, back in the days players like Ronald Koeman and later Christiano Ronaldo used to take 1-2 hours long shot training on their own account after regular practice. Many players did this to enhance a certain ability, not many players today staying after practice, they are busy spending all their money.

Probably 90% of this is a result of the Pep effect

I like you mention 23/24 and then later on in the video your calling 22/23 'this season'

The 4-4-2 never got out of fashion.

1.) because the just mentioned 4-2-3-1 is nothing but a 4-4-2 with the deeplying forward just starting from a slightly deeper position instead of dropping back to midfield from a higher position. Teams are using this method to get a striker free between the lines since the modern era of football and it became very popular when Arsene Wenger used the clear 4-2-3-1 at Arsenal with Bergkamp as an offensive #10 instead of a dropping forward.

2.) many teams attack in a 4-4-2 shape starting from a different formation. Eintracht Frankfurt und Dino Toppmöller builds up from a 3-5-2 formation with 3-box-x buildup but switches to a 4-4-2 in attack and during transition after losing the ball. Also mostly defending in a 4-4-2 when the opponent has the ball until the ball reaches the final third and Frankfurt switches to a 5-4-1 defensive formation.
In attack the right wingback behaves like a traditional attacking wing in a 4-4-2 and the right centreback covers his back (think about the Beckham/Neville relationship).

Nah the one I immediately thought of is the iconic start of 2 strikers standing in the centre, but I guess that’s not dying, but completely dead

More than 13% goals scored are from outside of the box
Tifo football: No one uses longshot anymore

Wait? "Tactics no-one uses anymore" -> 80 percent still do?

does epl actually have all these data to public

Why does the video keep saying "this season" and then have 2022-23 as the label? It's from November 2023, so "this season" is the 2023-24 season, no?

Outside of box goals gkme dead because of cr7 and Messi came aged and they had a decline in that, and other great players too like njr Ibra suarez bale etc who used to shoot from outside box now don't either retired or not doing it so.

Sweeper and libero is obsellete. Or no.10 (fantasista) too

This is only for EPL. You should do something for Serie A and Bundesliga

Come back long shots

I read the article on internet that was posted on november 3rd in which everything said is exactly the same. You just copied this over a video?

I'm convinced corners seem low percentage simply because players are bad at taking them. All the things elite players can do and regularly clearing the first man from a dead ball cross isnt one of them. Infuriating!

Football becoming too serious to be called a game, no more risks and freedom for players, its more about football iq and tactics rather than skill and talent

This just prove how more careful and meticulous teams play nowadays, we rarely saw wingers goes dancing on the flanks now, they just back pass to the fullback recycle to the midfield goes to the other side and so on

Aston villa uses the 4-4-2

Argentina won WC 2023 with 4-4-2 Formation at this day a year ago

No way Everton took 9 corners in a whole season

Curious to see GK's pass completion numbers for this season AFTER the winter months.

Bro you only take premier league into account as if its the only football league in the world

Is a 4-2-3-1 really that different from a 4-4-2?

If you differential the 2 strikers into primary and secondary and put your outside midfielders a little higher up the pitch on the team sheet, you've turned a 4-4-2 into a 4-2-3-1

4 tactics NOONE uses anymore... Really?

I can listen to this lad explain all day 😂

Those who uses 4-4-2 in football games after watching this video: 😮

Clickbait tactics aren't dying out I see.

Growing up seeing a winger beat the full back to cross to the strikers head was the default way to score.

The best example was Keith Gillespie against Barcelona when he tore Sergi a new one

is this video old or the years ar wrong

SADGE

The biggest one for me is the lack of men on posts at corners. I imagine that is just as responsible for increase in corner goals than going short.

No idea why 4-4-2 is dead, shoutout to Unai

i think i would attribute the long shot strategy to the decline in midfielders who can accurately shoot from outside and maybe opponents strategy within that range

Liverpool last weekend: what did you say about long shots again?

According to FNG the 10 role is dead. Of course hes wrong.

Long shots are being curtailed because of how rigid defences are. Odds are your shot will bounce from the defence and just end up as a loss.

Also, an awkward rebound could give your opponent a free ball to transition into a counter attack which is very dangerous.

Reckless shots against solid defences can create a defencive problem so teams avoid it more

It's curious that the 4-4-2 is still by far the most used formation in La Liga. And a total of 0 team plays with 3 or 5 at the back (if I'm not mistaken).
I wonder what Marcelino thinks when he sees a video like this.

Anyone see the Liverpool Fulham game, all 4 goals from outside the box🤯🤯

Long shots were a good way to get a corner, but now we don't want corners

Sure most clubs when out of possession use 4-4 2 just call it 2 blocks of 4 to sound innovative,when really just 4-4-2

In possession didn’t chelsea use a 4-4-2 obviously on paper it’s a 4-2-3-1 but in possession they play a 4-4-2

Of course our manager insists on using 442 and it never works well (FC Porto)

Aston Villa use 4-4-2 ever since Emery come
