Introduction

A lot can be learned from watching the game played at the highest level. Sometimes the most important

lessons are not the easiest to spot. Identifying key moments and trends of a game is a skill that comes from

watching hundreds of games as well as reading the analysis of others.

WORLD CLASS COACHING recently asked for coaches who would be interested in contributing tactical

articles for our www.coachingadvancedplayers.com web site. We had an incredible number of replies

from interested coaches and lots of articles submitted.

We didn’t have room to publish all the articles on our web site and we didn’t want them to go unread and

wasted as they include some interesting and useful content.

We also included an article from Stevie Grieve on page 35 that is taken from his latest book, “ Winning

Soccer Tactics ” . The book breaks down ever game from the Euro 2012 Championship. This article analyses

the game between Germany and Portugal and focuses on Germany’s ability to create attacking

opportunities using width.

I’m sure you will find the content useful and take ideas from these articles that you will be able to adapt

and incorporate into your own training sessions.

This journal is a compilation of those articles as they were submitted and unedited. The articles are on

random topics and in random order.

Good luck on the field.

Torres & Chelsea's woe's continue…….

By Darren Spurrier, UEFA and Master Diploma holder, ex professional player at

Southampton and owner of Darren Spurrier Professional Soccer Training.

Fernando Torres and Chelsea endured another miserable day on Saturday as Norwich

frustrated the blues and further hit the London club's slim title hopes.

But why is it that Torres and Chelsea are struggling to hit form? On a day when Norwich

had a clear game plan and played to their strengths, Chelsea once again showed that

they are a team badly in need of direction. Playing a 4-3-3 that has been so successful in

the past is not working for Andre Villas Boas, Watching the game it is easy to see that

Chelsea has no natural width with both Mata and Sturridge more naturally suited to roles

in the centre, both of whom look lost out wide and unsure of their individual roles.

The way Chelsea play at the moment with no traditional wingers does not help them.

The wide role is often left up to the full backs who all too often have nobody in the middle

to cross to because Torres is too frustrated and keeps dropping too deep to get involved

in the play or pulling too wide and delivering crosses that himself should be attacking. As

a lone centre forward Torres should be linking up the play and bringing players around

him into the play whilst also being available in the box for crosses. All too often Torres

showed a lack of desire to get into the penalty box and attack crosses and at the moment

looks a shadow of his old self.
