The Evolving Role of Strikers in Football
This chapter explores how the role of strikers in football has changed over time, with elite managers and professionals focusing on their overall game rather than just goal-scoring abilities. It discusses the influence of different positions on playing style, the trend towards all-round players, and the physical demands of leading the press. The chapter also examines the value of skills such as movement outside the box, hold up play, and quality in pressing and possession compared to the ability to score goals within the box.
