Which Position Would You Play In If Del Bosque Called You?

Seek passes on the outside, teasing players in attack

Pressure and stealing so someone goes in the centre

Quick and precise passes to the teammate

The rival team’s forwards

The quality and style of strikers’ shots

The box, posts and surrounding area

The pitch conditions and whether there are any irregularities that may affect the game

If you conceded no goals

If the ball possession is superior to that of the opponent’s

If your team had more shots on target

Make the most of a loose ball to try to score

Check where the players are positioned in case of an attack

Turning a risk into a chance using skills: dribbles, crossing lines, changing game…

Avoid mistakes, it’s the least risky option

Bad, you’re not scared of the ball and want to feel important

Indifferent, my participation is not relevant, as long as it's a good effort

Good, it’s good for you not have been too active

A basic tool of the game, but that could be beneficial for rivals too

A fundamental offensive tool which has to be exploited

Something to take into account, but second to touch football

Second to how you control the ball

Priority with regards to talent

Equal to your skills playing

Shots

Tactical order

Ball quality

Fight

Headers

My team’s association

Dribbling

Reflexes

“The ball is made out of leather, leather from cows, cows it grass, so the ball has to go to back”

“Football is a game you play with your brain”

“A football team is like a piano. You need eight people carrying it and three who know how to play the instrument”

“A goal is a liberation”

“Many can score goals, but few can avoid them”
