What the Coaches Say on the "Importance of Transition Play"
Mauricio Pochettino

Mauricio Pochettino

"The players have told me since that, even today, they still hear Jesus [Poch’s assistant] yelling out ‘press, press, press’ in their dreams.“ “I like football to be played well from the back, to have movement both in and out of possession, to pressure high up the pitch, and to be attacking.”

This book includes Pochettino's Transition Tactics with Sessions on how to practice them.

Maurizio Sarri

Maurizio Sarri

Dries Mertens (Napoli) “The thing I love the most about his style of football is the way he organises the phases when we are off the ball and structures the pressure we put on opponents when they’ve got the ball at their feet. It feels like he has already played the game out in his head and on the field you have an extra man."

This book includes Sarri's Transition Tactics with Sessions on how to practice them.

Leonardo Jardim

Leonardo Jardim

TRANSITION FROM DEFENCE TO ATTACK - After winning the ball, the first Monaco pass was quick and forward, leading to a fast break attack with equal numbers of players (2 v 2, 3 v 3 and 4 v 4) or with a numerical advantage/overload situation (3 v 2, 4 v 3, 2 [+1] v 2 and 3 [+1] v 3).

This book includes Jardim's Transition Tactics with Sessions on how to practice them.

Jorge Sampaoli

Jorge Sampaoli

"My teams are characterised by pressing in the opposition half, circulating the ball well and attacking from the wings”

 

This book includes Sampaoli's Transition Tactics with Sessions on how to practice them.
