I was getting rugby vibes from the L'pool game. The possession reminded me of gaining territory when a fly-half kicks to touch. I think the fans seen it too but mightn't have made the connection, hence the celebrations when winning a corner of throw-in deep in opposition territory. The impressive City 1st half was like a hybrid of MMA, Chess, Rugby and a Boa Constrictor. The tactically constructed mid-field moving the ball to gas out opponents was stifling even to watch. Just as well they didn't sign Kane or that Constrictor would have fangs xx

I grew up playing Rugby but have been playing and coaching social football for the last 15 years. In Rugby, I was a Fullback, which is more like "libero/sweeper" role (almost like an "rush" goal keeper sweeper). In Football, I play centre back because I had experience in rugby that taught me how to read the play in front of me and anticipate where the ball would go next. When we play casual games, I use my rugby side-stepping (or juking) abilities to lose a marker and get a few metres of space. Rugby also gave me the base athleticism, physicality and bravery. I'm not a big guy, only about 170cm tall (plus I am about 10 years older than the other players!), but I am playing centre back! On the ground, few players in my league will beat me. In the air, I am generally shorter and find it hard, but I at least learnt to judge the flight of the ball from my Rugby days. Additionally, we have a very strong and skilful player who we taught to play striker. We used concepts from basketball to teach him to "post-up" against his marker and roll that marker out of the way to shoot.

[@saoirsedeltufo7436]

Same here! I'm a fullback/wing and I've played in goal (catching, sweeping behind a defence, positioning) and winger (pace, creating space, stepping players) in football. Rugby really helps

[@diulikadikaday]

@@saoirsedeltufo7436, yeah, good points about playing goal keeper. When I had an injury, I volunteered to play in goal. Rugby gave me a base level of full body coordination (football doesn't teach hand/arm coordination) that was useful for plucking crosses out of the air and diving onto loose balls. I think locks would make great goal keepers! And you reminded me how every player in Rugby needs to contribute to attack and defense. Football sort of has that, but defenders are primarily for defense.

[@ishaandw]

Arteta could use some of these concepts to help his players stop continually passing laterally without forward progress against a deep lying defense.

There are also 8 substitutions in Rugby Union to replenish the positions which are almost always used, hence you have more than half of the team fresher to keep the intensity higher, and also play games within shorter duration.

[@llanfair5782]

I agree with this, however I would like to inform you that as a regular player of rugby for my local team (as well as a footballer from time to time) Rugby is a far more intense sport overall, the 10 mins less in a rugby match does not make up for it. With regards to your point about subs, I am (As is Eddie Jones who is featured in this video) against the number of subs being this high as it decreases the need for good stamina. However, the IRB are perhaps not on my side here and sadly the subs allowed will probably only go up from here on.

I think that’s not telling the whole story, you never stop moving when the ball is in play in rugby.

I had a tactic in FM19 that where I tried something inspired by rugby. In a 4-3-2-1 formation, where the inverted full-backs would run inside, mezzalas would move to the half spaces, and two shadow strikers would rush forward around a pivot false 9. The idea was to draw players out of possession when pressing, creating huge gaps when the ball eventually comes back to the DLP (or fly half) who would smash it up towards either the false 9 or mezzalas who were in buckets of space who could then lay it back for onrushing forwards It did not fare well.

i believe another concept that football/soccer can adopt is the 3 pointer in basketball. In order for this to be possible, you need a player or players who can strike the ball with precision. The job of the team would be to move the ball to the edge of the 18 yard box and then find these players. An example of this goal is Benzema's goal in the Finals of the Nations cup. Sane scored a goal the other day that many have dubbed a "fluke", however if this technique can be worked on then we can witness the effectiveness that kind of shot. Basketball players spend time working on 3 pointers from around the semi circle and i believe these 3 pointers in football/soccer should spend time working on shots from around the 18 yard box. Most of the scoring drills are done for direct/one on one chance with the keeper. I believe Benzema, Sane and even Ronaldihno's first goal in Barca are goals we can see more often if players work on them more.

I know, I've watched rugby since a kid, & git into soccer at about 14, along with tennis they're my top 3, but I'm just a sports fan, I like must, even.if I don't watch them all the time. I duo that that in England rugby is seen as elite because it's qhat they okay at private schools, & driver is dugout the lower class. But I dont get it because both only need a paying surface & a ball, so they're both accessible, it's not like golf or motorsport

[@bazookacantgame]

The cultural split was the lower class in England played Football and the upper class played rugby. This can be seen because Rugby (Union) was fully amateur until 1995 because but when it was just a game, the upper class didn’t need the money so wanted to keep it as a game

[@bigmac7221]

Hate to complain about an otherwise fabulous Tifo video the the game is ‘rugby union’ not ‘rugby’.

[@jan7539]

He mentioned union as the arch social enemy but the principles he highlighted were applicable to both league and union i think. The references to the Japan game was in union though

In most of the world it is Rugby and Rugby league

Got our revenge against Japan, beat the Lions, got the World Cup and saved ourselves from complete embarassment by clinching the win against the All Blacks after a poor championship title defence😅

As an American, this makes me really wonder if other managers are influenced by other sports besides rugby. The concept is also shared with hockey, American football and Canadian football. Maybe the pitches in baseball could be used to study how to get the desired effects by kicking the ball in a certain way.

[@roryrussell2127]

Baseball’s biggest influence on football is probably the moneyball recruitment philosophy. FSG used the same strategy with Liverpool as they did with the Red Sox

Petr Cech played both hockey and soccer, before focusing on soccer. He said used power skating drills as a part his training

Draw and pass. I’ve set up so many goals by running at the defender and laying it off to a player in space. Especially if you shape to go one way and lay it off the other. It should be second nature but too many people give the pass early before the defender is committed. It seems to be a coaching blind spot at most levels. Even at the top level it doesn’t seem to be drilled into all the players. Holding onto the ball for a split second longer can be the difference between a goal and another aimless pass that goes nowhere.

[@redmed10]

I would have thought handball would be a better example than rugby. Handball players are constantly moving about to create space to have a shot. Football players seem to forget to shoot at goal so often. The lack of shots at goal in most games never ceases to amaze and anger me. Creating space to have an unhindered shot seems to be a forgotten art. Only see Greenwood do it consistently. All the other players seem to forever want to shoot the ball through or at the opposing defender which inevitably get blocked.

Pep is definitely influenced by Seb Stafford Bloor too going by the artwork

[@dude99844]

It seems wierd but i learned how to use my upper body to fake defenders in football from actually playing basketball. I think there are several things we can learn from other sports that gives you an edge in football. Guardiola is a genius

@@shikhargovil9579 Klopp to me is better than Guardiola when it comes to the understanding of football. Klopp understands football deeply and the reason he's not talked about much compared to Pep is because he doesn't have the same achievements.

@@kwazilucas firstly. please do'nt do comparisons. ca'nt we just embrace that we have some superb quality of managers at the moment. klopp is always talked in same league as pep and tuchel. ca'nt see point of your comment in that sense. even sir ferguson said that pep and klopp are best managers at the moment and then later he brought tuchel in same league. pep is known for winning loads of trophies whereas klopp is equally respected in football world for his work at various clubs in terms of improving them.
