i'm paul fonseca and i will speak about the evolutions of my team shakhtar donetsk and homer [Music] let's start with the shaktar in chapter we play in the system 4 2 3 1. piatov like a goalkeeper here normally dario cerna central defenders kryptsov or ordaz like left back ismaili the two midfielders normally fred and stepanenko you sometimes also play mali chef or allen patrick like a wingers marlo is on the right bernard on the left like number 10 normally tyson but tyson sometimes play also in the left and we play here many times with the
covalent like a strike normally fakundu fakundu ferrara [Music] so in chaktar like in every my teams i want to dominate the games i want to have the the ball so start to build up is very important for me we gave a lot of freedom to the right back and the left back dario and and ismaili and we start to build up [Music] with the with the tree with the tree because the other teams normally normally press with the with the striker and the number 10 our wings play inside all the time inside and because we
want to have ismaili and dario i in the in the pitch many times we want to have advantage here if they have two players normally steppane could enter between the central defenders we have fred and came down also our number number 10. so the intention was uh to have advantage here and the stepanenko enter many times in the middle of the central defenders sometimes we make the same with tree but stepanenko came on in the right or in the in the left and we start to build in the same way all [Music] the time the
the other midfielders uh all in the in the same line why because our main goal of sov is to win uh the space here uh between the lines and to have here uh fred and the tyson when steppen who enter enter here we want to attract these midfielders for after we find a way to find these these players if the other teams close the space inside for don't allow to enter here we have all the time these two men's uh free but the main intention is to attract here these players to have advantage uh here
for uh to have this place and after we attacked the defensive line of the of the opponents [Music] the way to play the teams in in championship in ukraine is almost the same we play uh 90 percent of the times in the last 30 40 40 meters and for us the action of the right back and the left back was very very important we want to create doubts and the other team to use ismaili and dario in the same line like like marlux and and bernard and of course for to create this doubt is important
they they play uh high in the in the in the pitch it is important to have daru and ismael who were very very strong offensive uh and to create this relation uh with with miles and with the with the bernard but um 90 of the games they play very high of course in champions league and in europa league uh is important to be a little more careful because the teams play in the different way and sometimes sometimes when we have this necessity we if we attack in this side that you keep the position a little
more down but in 19 of the games they are very hard to create this doubt with the with the winger and to have freedom for for to to go one one thing important is to understand if we play all the time in the last 40 30 meters the position of the players in the position of the team should allowed us to have a strong reaction when we lose the the ball and to play with the wingers inside allowed us in the moment when we lose the ball here to have a strong reaction the players are
near and we don't want to allow the other team to have the possibility to counter attack so one important thing the reaction when we lose the ball and like i said the position of the the team uh allowed us to be closer and to try to recover the ball immediately when when we lose this is when we lose the ball but normally we we press high all the time in in ukraine oh we make we make this here we keep the line of of four the two midfielders our number 10 our wingers and we press
one line of of four with our striker and our number 10. many many games we put also fred here depend if they play here with the one or or two bad but the team move with the ball if the ball they play the ball on the right back we press like this with the striker we try to close for the the the game don't uh don't change and the is our number 10 and these players close the pitch and the two corridors uh with the stepanenko fred close in diagonal and the marlow inside but normally
we play with our number 10 and our striker fakundu and the tyson when the ball is in the core central corridor when the ball is in the lateral corridor we press like this close the the pitch and the two corridors with the midfielders all the time closing the space in diagonal in champions league of course we decide don't press so high but in the middle block but the the with the same intentions not so high in the in the pitch [Music] when i arrived in arriving in houma i decided to play in the same system
like in shakhtar i started with the four two three three one also with the wingers inside the same intentions like like in chaktar here with the one one difference the the teams in in italy press more more high so we have to find more solutions for to start to to build up with the high high pressure but i have to confess i prefer i prefer when the teams press high is maybe more easy to try to find the space about the formation normally paul lopez here we start with florence's anton um [Music] like a central
uh defenders manchini smalling and the kolarov or spinazole in the first season it was much more color off after normally midfielders christened and very too with more freedom for very to attack uh and after here normally pellegrini zanulu mkhitaryan in in the jekyll after after zanulo stopped to play because he had a injury and i play here many times with the cliver or play here with the with the pellegrini in the middle of the this season i decided to change for uh three uh four four three with the three central defenders two midfielders the right
back and the left back two wingers uh inside and one uh one socket if you see the system in the offensive moment is exactly the the same like when we play with the four two three three one what change it was in the defensive moment and the why i decided to change because um the most of the the teams in italy uh had all the time like has uh five players to attacking the the defensive line and with the four with the four we had some problems to control uh the deep movements of the the
other uh teams so we decided to put more one central defender and it was more easy to control these this moment another reason it was because in the most of the times we have the initiative of the game we play near to the other box the the moment when we lose the the ball with the three center of defenders i i sought to be more prepared for this this moment and in fact after we start to play um with this system we start to suffer less less goals we we had seven uh victories and one
draw so i decided to to play in the same system in the in the second in the second season also uh with the three 4 4 3. [Music] so like in the other system this system is so important [Music] the action of the the central defenders when we start to build the difference is uh in the other system we make one of the the midfielders to enter here or to enter here and in this system we have the three central defenders we didn't have the necessity to make the central midfielders arrive near to the central
defenders and we keep here the the two midfielders with the same intentions like in the other system in this system here it was clear the the right back and the left back with much more freedom uh with without any restriction in the offensive phase but continue to say the first phase it was crucial for for us and we have here ebanish in the first moment kolarov with big quality and the manchini smalling here or he banished all players with the big courage for to start to to build even under under oppression [Music] i decided to
to change in home of course because of the the characteristic of the the the championship of the critics of the the the other the other teams also uh and i didn't i didn't speak about this about the characteristics of our players one of the important things when we changed the this system it was about also the action of spin azole and the importance of spinoza in this system it was one of the the players more important for us because he's a very offensive player ride with facility in the last 30 30 minutes and i think
we won with this this change but we didn't change offensively didn't change too much but i have to confess i i prefer the four for two three one or this moment i'm not working and i'm watching a lot uh games i can play also uh with the four three three three in this moment uh because the conclusion is the same the intentions of the team can be the same even if i play with the four three three three so i have no doubt in the next team you you will see i play in 4 2
3 1 or in 4 3 [Music] you
