Tactical Data & Profiles
How data defines player roles and styles of play, from pressing intensity to build-up patterns and defensive structure.
How data defines player roles
From heat maps to role clusters: how analysts sort players by behaviour instead of by the position printed on the team sheet.
Pressing styles measured from data
High press, mid-block and low block described through measurable behaviour: start distance, intensity and recovery location.
Team style fingerprints from event data
How a handful of rate metrics become a team fingerprint, and what those fingerprints can and cannot settle in a tactical debate.
Build-up patterns and progression data
First line, second line and third line: reading build-up through pass networks, zone entries and progression routes.
Line height, blocks and defensive structure
Measuring the defensive line, compactness and block height — the numbers behind the phrase "defending deep".
