I think this shift towards set pieces is kinda interesting
... I mean, teams are using data analysis to their advantage and finding ways to exploit opponents' weaknesses. But at the same time, it feels like they're relying too much on luck rather than actual skill
️. I worry that if teams keep relying solely on set pieces, they'll become predictable and easy to defend against.
On a bigger scale, I think this trend could change the way midfielders play their role in the team
. With teams focusing more on quick corners and throw-ins, there might be less need for traditional midfielders who can hold onto the ball and create scoring opportunities through possession. It's already happening with the rise of 'regista' players who are experts at delivering set pieces... but I'm not sure how long that'll last
.
It's also worth noting that this shift could lead to more one-dimensional teams that rely on just a few key players to deliver set pieces
. That can't be sustainable for the long-term success of clubs. Football is always evolving, and I'm excited to see how teams respond to these changes
