Read Volume II
Volume II is here! For the new magazine, I wanted to talk to scouts and analysts about how they're thinking about football's enduring centre: the midfield. So I enlisted The Athletic's Jon Mackenzie and SCOUTED's Jake Entwistle for an academic discussion about the midfield's tactical developments, and how they're changing the kinds of players we're seeing break through today.
Thanks for listening - I hope you love Volume II if you pick it up!
