    Re: Pressing

    Thank you for posting this. It really helps to understand and makes easier to get to the underlying reasons why /how teams who may appear to adopt the same or similar tactics are more successful than others
    As you note the difference between West Brom and Burnley is a great example of two teams similar in style but who’s tactics adopt a different type of ‘pressure’ resulting in a level of success for Burnley and relegation for WB

    It also adds to understanding how players who are successful in one system and who might be considered generally as good players can struggle in a side who play a similar system but have different levels of expectations in terms of fitness, attitude etc
