De Zerbi's 2-4-2-2 build-up structure with six outfield players is unconventional and differs from the more common 4-3-3 formation with a single pivot. This approach is high-risk, high reward, as it seeks to achieve numerical superiority during the build-up phase while inviting the opposition to press high.

In 2-4-2-2 build-up structure:

1. Two centre-backs: would drop low and wide to create space for the goalkeeper to act as an additional passing option, which helps to alleviate pressure from the high press.

2. Two central midfielders (double pivot): would drop deep, positioning themselves in line with the full backs. This creates a 4-player line that helps to maintain numerical superiority and provides multiple passing options against the opposition's press.

3. Two full backs: would stay in line with the double pivot, providing width and stretching the opposition's press. Their presence ensures that the opponents must commit more players to the press, which could leave spaces further up the pitch.

4. Striker and attacking midfielder: would take central positions, looking to exploit gaps in the opposition's defence and provide direct passing options.

5. Two wingers: would stay high and wide, stretching the opposition's defence and providing passing options, should the build-up succeed in bypassing the press.

De Zerbi's 2-4-2-2 build-up approach focuses on creating numerical superiority and exploiting the space left by the opposition's high press. If the opposition commits six players to the press, it opens opportunities for De Zerbi's team to quickly transition into a 4v4 situation in the attacking half. The vertical passes and fast attacks are crucial to capitalize on the spaces left by the opposition's press, turning a high-risk build-up into a high-reward attacking opportunity.

"PRINCIPLES OF THE POSITIONAL PLAY" - Complete guide to understanding and coaching Positional Play. Tactical theory covers 10 principles used by masters of the Positional Play like Johan Cruyff and Pep Guardiola, but also, by up and coming coaches like Roberto De Zerbi (artificial transitions) and Xabi Alonso (central vertical combinations) : playing out from the back, control of possession, positioning, movement, compactness, exploiting half-spaces, combination play, counter-pressing, vertical play and overload to isolate. With the total of 40 Tactical practices included (4 practices to coach each of the 10 principles). www.phaseofplay.com

Itsrm:
First, he's not a governor or president with executive powers neither is he the IGP or Chief of Defence Staff.

Secondly, it's not like nothing is being done as people will have you believe. I agree that more needs to be done.

Wike actually started on a good footing but he's been distracted by his fight with Fubara leaving governance to suffer, so far he is overwhelmed by the myriad of challenges he's facing

BlueRayDick:
All of these can be gathered via Law enforcement closely liaising with telecos . No ?

It can be gathered of course but you know how some of our law enforcement agents behave if you don't lobby/bribe them to do their work they will not take you serious. Recently my phone was stolen I reported to the nearby station providing them with my phone details the officer I met asked me to give him something which I refused to do he promised to get back to me we exchanged contacts. After several weeks of not hearing from I called him he to get an update he flatly replied me with no update.

BlueRayDick:
I read sometime ago that IMEI number can actually be used to track a call .

So ideally our security agents should still be able to track the location of kidnappers with phone IMEI number even if they register their lines with 6 year old alamajiri details

IMEI too can be changed and it will lead to a dead when tracked. To nab the kidnappers you'll need to combine different methods like checking the metadata of the kidnappers via the routers on the mast used in receiving/initiating the call, triangulating the GPS location and boots on to gather enough Intel within the location.

Popizaino must remain till season end he shouldn't be sacked yet.

We warned against Popizaino but we were told not to use his previous jobs to judge him now the same people have turned against him.

All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of all creation, may Allah extol the mention of our noble Prophet Muhammad in the highest company of Angels, bless him and give him peace and security―and his family, his Companions and all those who follow him correctly until the establishment of the Hour.

The Duhā prayer is a Sunnah encouraged by Allah’s Messenger (sallallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) for his Companions and the believers — and he would sometimes perform it. He prayed 8 rak’ahs Duhā prayer on the day of the conquest of Makkah. So it is an emphasised Sunnah.

Its time is from the rising of the sun when it reaches the height of a spear in the sky (usually 20 minutes after sunrise) until before it reaches its full height (noon) before Dhuhr. If it is prayed at its earliest time or thereafter, the Sunnah of Duhā is fulfilled. However, its best time is later when the earth is at its warmest due to the saying of the Prophet (sallallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) about the Duhā Prayer: “The prayer of the repentant ones is offered when the young weaned camels feel the heat of the Sun.” (Muslim, no. 748)

A person should recite in it whatever is easy for him from the Surahs of Quran, and ayāt of the Quran. The least number of rak’ahs to be prayed are two with one tasleem at the end. A person can also pray four, six or eight or more — and he makes tasleem after every two rak’ahs. The Prophet (sallallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) prayed eight rak’ahs on the day of the conquest of Makkah — and he made tasleem after every two.

‘A’ishah (radiyallāhu ‘anhā) said: The Messenger of Allah (sallallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) would pray four rak’ahs of Duhā prayer (at the forenoon) and would add to them whatever Allah willed. (Muslim)

Abu Hurayrah (radiyallāhu ‘anhu) said: “My friend (the Prophet (sallallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam)) advised me with three things:
(1) to fast three days a month,
(2) to pray two rak’ahs of Duhā prayer, and,
(3) to pray witr before sleeping.” (Bukhārī, no. 1981)

End.

.......Mí ó ni sọ ń kánkán. LOL!

Whoever takes the marginalization cry of any politician to heart during electioneering campaign will be disappointed afterwards.

popizaino:
Let sack Pochettino now before it's too late. Can't have a Chelsea coach making excuses for not beating a championship team.

Popizaino will finish what he has started there are no better alternatives available that will clean the mess right away, signing him was a mistake and sacking him now will be a bigger mistake.

Popizaino free Enzo. The funny thing is sacking Popizaino now will be a wrong decision let him ride the season out afterwards the owners should take a decision.

Who would've thought that I will see this day?

On the issue of street cred don't let the calm demeanor or the good upbringing of an individual fool you into thinking that individual can't be brutal more than those born and raised in ghetto. I know of a boy whose family provided all he needed but he was the 2nd in command nobody knew about this until the rival group took him out in school. I know of another during my undergraduate days he used to call me whenever it's time for prayer but he was one of the top guys he too was taken out.

Ben Foster on Cole Palmer: “17 Premier League appearances, eight goals is fantastic. Some big penalties, calmness on the ball. He looks like a young Phil Foden. He looks like he doesn’t really care, not fazed by it all. He just enjoys himself.”
