I hate accounts like this one, they add nothing new to the timeline, only stealing others content without giving credits and use some cringe captions. This is the thrid time this account does it, I reached him privately but no reply.

Enzo Maresca did this lol
🚨 José Mourinho: “I told Camavinga: go and attack the space”.
“It's difficult for any attackers to attack space against Barcelona, the only solution is to do it with your midfielders”.
“When your attackers do it, Barca's defense is prepared and coached for that, and your attackers end up being offside, or the pass ends up being cut by Joan Garcia”.
“The solution is to use midfielders like Camavinga and Bellingham to break that line, and it worked”.

Going to Juventus Museum in 10 years time and seeing all the signed Cambiaso shirts on the wall
Funnily enough I accidentally contributed to this slop, I was mislead into believing the funds were going towards a Kantè banner.
Won’t say much, but I’d rather JDP footy than whatever Xabi’s serving up
🚨🔵 Enzo Maresca:
“I believe positional play helps the footballer and puts him in positions to perform better, the footballer has to have freedom but freedom in terms of technique and 1v1 situations. Many times you give player a little more freedom, but it doesn’t benefit the team. I believe the coach is there for the benefit of the team”

Lacroix cannot be allowing Tel to cut inside so easily. It's a 2v2 on the last line, he must prevent Tel from making a decisive action and wait for support. Lacroix commits when he really does not need to. Other technical details are also poor like how far he's spaced away from Tel - too close, in my opinion. Again, questions about Lacroix's large space defending.
Lacroix's defensive decision-making and physical characteristics over large spaces is unideal. It can partly be resolved through training and more experience but I think the rest is an inherent drawback (do correct me if I'm wrong with that). I'd break down his weaknesses in decision-making as: (1) positional awareness, (2) body orientation, and (3) inefficient choices on when to press up and drop back to delay. Physically, his agility, footwork, speed of shifting between different body orientations, and pace make him susceptible when tracking back and defending big spaces. I do want to emphasise that many defenders find it difficult because it is just really tough to effectively defend large spaces consistently. There is a certain calibre of elite defenders who can achieve that. I don't think Lacroix gets to that level due to the inherent physical characteristics but there is still room to improve from a decision-making point of view. Below are examples taken from the second half against Brentford where he incorrectly presses up instead of dropping to delay the attack considering the opposition had an overload. Image 2 is his inaccurate decision on jumping out to put pressure rather than tracking the runner.

Estêvão can’t play on the left apparently. 🤣
Throwback to when he was moved there in the second half against Bournemouth & had one of his best performances last season.
You just know who watches him & who doesn’t.
