The famous Guardiola quote, football is the rational occupation of space.
So maybe it's fun to think about if we talk about the end of a paradigm and something new emerging, maybe it's a little more magical in its thinking.
And magical thinking gets denigrated for good reason in many situations.
But there's an interesting quote here from Arthur C. Clarke, a science fiction writer, futurist, whatever you want to call it.
And here's the quote.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
And that's fun, right?
Because it's like, yeah, okay.
It seems like what the hell is Bergkamp doing?
What the hell are these players doing to fool these defenders?
Like that's magic.
And we say like footballers are wizards and they have magic and all this kind of thing and they're doing tricks.
We say it, like literally say it.
But what if it's actually revealing where we should go with our tactical thinking?
And I think that's maybe what we're doing here.
No.
No.
Yeah, I love...
I love that you've mentioned vagueness there.
There's lots of directions we can go here.
