Anderson is playing the six with tendencies of an eight.

Fernandez is playing the eight with tendencies of a ten.

Cherki is playing the ten with tendencies to play a free role.

All wonderful players, but the balance is not right, and the centre backs are suffering this imbalance in front of them.

Then we look at Spurs: Fernandes in the six with Archie Gray and Tonali in the eight positions (both with six tendencies). Leaving them with a lack of creativity.

Midfield balance is key, and profiling the players is crucial. PSG arguably have the perfect balance, with three players who can fulfil any of the three roles competently.

Full-speed counter-attacks from one end to the other hit differently.

The anticipation in the crowd builds as the players run at full speed, adding another layer to the celebrations.

All three Forest goals were scored on the attacking transition as they took the risk of counter-attacking quickly.

Out on Monday with a class.

Stretch, spin and show. How Douvikas of Como is creating chaos against every centre-back he comes up against.

One for those coaching 'number 9's' who love to threaten the space beyond the defensive line.
