Can you suggest some books?? On tactics in football??

@McKayJohns 2 года назад

I like soccermatics for learning about the math behind football. Inverting the pyramid also is a good one. Can get both on Amazon.

@falutaope2800 2 года назад

Can you recommend a book to learn about football tactics. Also are yt channels dedicated for that?

@acquij Год назад

For books "Inverting The Pyramid" is a good guide on the evolution of football tactics, "Zonal Marking" focusses on the developments since around 92/93. For youtube mabye check out "Football Meta" and "Tifo IRL" or really just search for a recent match like Chelsea vs Tottenham and "tactics", lots of great breakdowns.

If you aren’t interested in analytics maybe look into sports management or sports marketing!
