INTRODUCTION
What is my idea of football ?
•Trying to recover as soon as
possible(« Hunting »)
•Phase I : Building from the back
to the middle third
PART I : WHAT IS A MODEL OF GAME ?
•Reoraganizing the lines
•Phase II : Attacking from Midfield
a/ The four moment of the games
Moment 1
b/ Defining principles
ATTACKING
Moment 1 : Attacking
« POSSESSING THE
BALL »
Moment 2 : Transition from Defense to
Attack
Moment 2
TRANSITION FROM
ATTACK TO DEFENSE
« LOSING THE BALL »
Moment 3 : Defending
Moment 4 : Transition from attack to
defense
Moment 4

« RECOVERING THE
BALL»
a/ The principle of SPECIFICITY
b/ WORKING THROUGH GAMES
CONCLUSION
•Option 1 : Playing quickly forward
•Option 2 : Getting out of the
density (pressure)
« ORGANIZING TO GET
BACK THE BALL »
•Phase 1 : Preventing fomr
building up
•Phase 2 : Pressing the opponent
to reduce time of reading

> Opening spaces to occupy the width and depth of the field
> Playing forward in the gaps for an unmarked player
