This book provides you with a rare and great opportunity to use 92 Roberto De Zerbi Build Up, Passing Combinations and Attacking Positional Play Practices and find out how he coaches his team to produce his fluid possession-based attacking style with unique build up play patterns to control the ball and dominate opponents.

Referring to the way Roberto De Zerbi coaches his teams to play with innovative build up play tactics, which are included in this book, Pep Guardiola said "I think Brighton is playing something unique, special," and "he monopolises the ball in a way I haven't seen for a long, long time."

Take your chance to coach your team to bait the press, play out from the back with fast and intricate passing combinations, and create space and overloads high up the pitch. Focus on creativity, movement, and rotations with third man link players to break through pressure, positional interchanges to break down defences, and supporting runs to finish attacks quickly and efficiently.

The 92 Practices included in this book are all taken directly from Roberto De Zerbi's training sessions at Benevento (2), Sassuolo (57), Shakhtar Donetsk (5), and Brighton & Hove Albion (28) between 2018 and 2023.
