Proactive, brave, dominant, fluid, versatile, aggressive … They are just some of the qualities that They have led to how to become the team more in form From series A -Neach five consecutive victories- already Cesc Fàbregas to be the 'fashion coach' of the 'football'.
“Our ambition is to aim more and higher. We want to end in the 'Top 10'. When this hunger fails, it will mean that I or some players should change the air, “admitted Cesc, what returned to the elite 21 years later And he has opened to the tenth place, 19 points! above the descent.

So well he is doing that his name has sounded to Replace Xabi Alonso at the Bayer Leverkusen and is the favorite to relieve Claudio Ranieri in Rome: “Don't knowthere is still nothing decided. NI need a short break at the end of the championship, a moment of breathing before sitting at the table with him. I have to understand where we want to go and how. But the priority is as “.
My future? Don't know. I need a short break before sitting with him, which is still my priority
The unattractive staging of how it caused the direction to dispense with Moreno Longo in November 2023with the team in positions of 'playoffs' of ascent to series A, and 'ascended' to CESC, which has just turned 38. It has had an effect. “A little Guardiola, a little contest and a little Harry Potter”he says 'La Gazzetta dello Sport'. “It's a pleasure for the eyes,” reveals the 'Corriere'.
“As soon as he arrives, he said: 'You have to disassemble everything and rebuild it little by little. ' That day we understood could become an excellent coach“, remember Carlalberto Ludi, Director Deportivo del Como, to 'Il sheet'.

“There are many ways to play football and you can't rule out any. Simeone wins in his own way, Guardiola to his, just like Mourinho and Conte. They are different styles, but it is important to believe in what you do. I could tell my boys: 'Let's play long balls and win the second play.' However, I would not know how to train the team, since I don't believe in that football; I could not transmit the right message to the player “, The former Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea, among others.
His proposal is another: “I want us to be proactive. Our goal is to control possession, press high and manage transitions intelligently. Series A is a very demanding league, so we focus on players who have guts and adapt easily: that can haggle, defend and find the appropriate spaces. It's about acting with coherence and passion. “

This has become, alternating 1-4-2-3-1 and 1-4-3-3in the most in the form of series A. The base is a positional football … but fluid, freely: “We are turning the players into robots, making them look only at a road, When there are so many other things that happen in a game. ”
Eleven type of how.
He has also managed to change. He has not resigned to get the ball from behind. Not much less: average accumulates, 54% possession on average. However, he has varied his initial proposal – more academic – by A more versatile and vertiginous game style, with rapid triangulations. Winter signings – all must be said – have helped: Diao, Caqueret, Douvik, Alex Valle, Iconé, Vojvoda, Butez…
The advanced pressure after loss has become identity hall of a very short team, which plays with the lines very together: Defense usually starts 63.5 meters average from its goal. As it allows 11.3 passes to the opponent for possession (ppad): Only 12 teams allow less within the five major leagues.
That dynamism allows you average 12.3 auctions for 90 minutes and 49.4 average progressions in the last third. In return it grants only 9.14 auctions. It is also the second team that recovers most (1,684) and the second that most successful 'Tackles' (391).
“Our game model implies playing the same against all. We always seek to be aggressive and bet on high pressure, either against Naples or against the last. Our mentality should not change, “Fàbregas insists.

A brave proposal that their players appreciate. Nico Paz is the third player who shoots most from Serie A (99) and Strefezza and Lucas da Cunha occupy the sixth and ninth place among the players who create the most goal opportunities. With Cesc, the 'how' matters. And a lot.
