It doesn’t matter how little knowledge they have. If they are being told exactly where to stand on the pitch, that means that the coach is using a formation

122

No it doesn’t.

123

I’d like to hear your definition of a formation so if you think that

124

What you and Henry are describing is simply position when they gain possession.

If you freeze frame anything you could call it a formation.

Sport is a series of chaotic “formations”

125

Yes a position that the players get into every time they have the ball. That’s a formation. What do you think Guardiola does if he doesn’t use a formation?

126

Set of principals

127

You are going to have to learn this yourself fella.

Get coaching. Its fun.

A never ending rabbit hole, but fun

128

Such as the team shape being in a certain formation when they have the ball. Telling me to get coaching is just trying to deflect from the nonsense you are talking

129

Its only nonsense becaise you cannot make sense of it.

There is very little i can do to explain without sitting down in front ofbya or on a pitch and elactually spelling it out.

And thats not being condecending, its simply not easy to explain.

130

But no. Not necessarily in regards to shape of team with ball.

131

Every manager uses a formation. Some of those are more fluid and changeable than others. It just so happens that you used the worst possible example of a manager to show one who doesn’t

132

It just shows he does such a good job.

133

What?

134

You think its simple and obvious.

Anyway, i have explained this enough.

You don’t want to look at it differently. Thats fine. Off with ya.

135

You haven’t explained it at all. I don’t think you know what a formation is

136

I explained it a way above. You have choosen to ignore it.

As its beyond your oresent knowledge

137

You haven’t explained anywhere how Pep Guardiola doesn’t use a formation, and you can’t because he clearly does. Even if you are more philosophy than systems based you still have a formation

138

what team will start lads? cc @Bandage

139

No you don’t.

A formation you stay with for an entire game or until you deliberately change it.

140

Yes you do, every team in world football has a formation when they play kev, and Guardiola puts a particular emphasis on team shape more than most other managers
