Exactly. This trend is observable across various teams, including FC Barcelona (I am a huge fan), where erstwhile luminaries like Xavi, Iniesta, and Deco displayed a penchant for audacious strikes from distance. Contrastingly, the current crop of players, typified by Frenkie De Jong, Pedri, and Gavi, seems less inclined towards such ventures. This reluctance to attempt long shots may stem from a prevailing ethos prioritizing methodical buildup play and meticulous execution over spontaneity and risk-taking. In essence, modern football seems to favor a more controlled approach, where players are encouraged to seek optimal scoring opportunities rather than opt for speculative efforts from afar. Regrettably, this trend may intensify in the future, as tactical frameworks become increasingly rigid and players are groomed to adhere strictly to predefined strategies. However, it's crucial to recognize the inherent value of experimentation and unpredictability in football—a sentiment encapsulated in the adage, "If you don't shoot, you will never be able to know how much the goalkeeper can take." Thus, striking a balance between tactical discipline and creative expression remains imperative in preserving the essence of the beautiful game. Anyways Great Post!!!

Shout out to Lauryn Groce and Hannah Siefert and team that put on a great event! 🙌🏾 This was actually my first networking event related to sports - and I got a chance to meet some great people. 3 Things I learned from the speakers: 1. “Micro Mentoring” anyone can be an expert in your circle in topics you may not excel in, at the minimum a friend 2. Successful leaders are intuitive but even more just want to learn as much as they can from areas that intrigue them - to then be a resource for multiple people in a organization. My favorite line was a “Swiss army knife” 3. Goals can look a lot of different ways and everyone may not understand your vision - so understand the business goals and relate those down to your long term vision no matter what your title is

Championing a Winning Culture in Football During my time working with Ange Postecoglou at club level, where we clinched back-to-back national titles, Ange fostered a culture of unwavering excellence. He expected commitment to a winning mentality from everyone involved—be it players, staff, board members, fans, sponsors, or support personnel. This ethos promotes a positive, forward-thinking environment that propels everyone toward an ultimate collective goal of supreme success. Yet, this drive contrasts starkly with instances in recent days at Spurs where fans preferred their team to lose to prevent a rival, like Arsenal, from winning the title. Choosing this over maintaining hopes for a Champions League spot not only undermines a winning culture but also highlights a deeper systemic issue at Spurs. A genuine passion for football should encourage striving for victory in every match, elevating the club's ambitions rather than compromising them. Ange’s reaction is very typical and understandable. He wants to be surrounded by winners who don’t compromise on the bigger picture. #FootballCulture #WinningMentality

Scottie Scheffler is really good at golfing. And as he wakes up to see another green jacket hanging in his closet, Caitlin Clark wakes up for the last time not being the #1 pick in the WNBA draft. And we have all woken up to the opportunity to recognize a Nice Guy or Gal. Every Friday, I’ll share nominations for people who have been identified as nice guys (and gals). If you want to nominate someone, just shoot me a private message by 5:00 EST on Thursday. There are only 3 requirements: 1) you have to be connected to the person you nominate 2) you can only nominate one person per week 3) you can’t nominate yourself 😀   If you want to provide a brief reason for your selection, that’s great, but it’s not a requirement. Let’s recognize people who make a difference simply by being nice. Have a great day, everyone. https://lnkd.in/e8JX9YcC   #network #sportsbiz #people #niceguy #networking #sportsmarketing
