We do this by advising professional clubs, promoting both in-person and online training programs, and mentoring coaches from around the world in the <\/span>Locational Play<\/b>\u2014the tactical evolution of the classic positional play\u2014which we had the opportunity to develop and conceptualize during our time in FC Barcelona\u2019s methodology<\/strong> department. <\/span> <\/p>\n

However, our methodology isn\u2019t limited to the collective or conceptual level. The game, first and foremost, belongs to the soccer players. That\u2019s why, through observation and analysis of their matches, we work with players to help them reach their peak athletic performance. This is the precise approach we take in our service for players, as in the case of <\/span>Dani Olmo<\/b>, where our goal is not to rewrite his style of play, but to refine the richness of his interactions with his environment (teammates, opponents, the ball, the goal, etc.).<\/span><\/p>\n

To achieve this, we move away entirely from traditional mechanistic analysis and focus on three fundamental aspects.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Technique is inextricably linked to decision-making that only makes sense within a specific context. Our job is to identify the intentions that the player is already expressing on the field so that, from there: <\/span><\/p>\n
