Overview

Transform the way you see and coach football. Every coach has faced the same challenge: how do I take complex ideas about space, movement, and structure, and turn them into sessions my players can understand? Espacio de Fase provides the missing link. Rooted in the methodology of Paco Seirul-lo, refined by Johan Cruyff, and perfected under Pep Guardiola, the Espacio de Fase (EdF) framework explains football not as rigid positions or painted zones, but as a living ecosystem of spaces. This book makes the theory practical. You'll learn how to recognize and coach the three dynamic spaces that exist in every moment of the game: Game Center Space: the duel with the ball-carrier, where decisions under pressure decide survival. Direct Cooperation Space: the immediate support network that provides continuity, triangles, and progression. Indirect Cooperation Space: the structural horizon that sustains width, depth, and balance, preparing the next advantage. Through clear explanations, real examples, and practical training designs, you'll see how to: Map universal and collective concepts (scanning, third man runs, dismarking, counterpressing) onto each space. Connect theory to practice using rondos, positional games, and situational simulations that reflect real match conditions. Build a game model where every player knows their role in possession, out of possession, and in transitions. Train players not just to ""stand in shape"" but to read, sustain, and transform space dynamically. Whether you're coaching youth, semi-professional, or elite players, Espacio de Fase gives you a practical framework to design better sessions, improve decision-making, and create teams that think collectively. This is not another drill book. It is a coaching manual and conceptual guide-a bridge between theory and the training ground-that will change how you teach the game. If you want your players to understand space like Busquets, orchestrate like Xavi, and exploit like Messi-this book shows you how.
