HEINZE AND SOME TRANSLATED "DETAILS" REGARDING VÉLEZ THAT FANS OF #ATLUTD SHOULD KNOW
1/21 TACTICAL EXAMINATION
- #ATLUTD´s fans will know Heinze´s most repeated keyword: POSITIONING. For him, tactical schemes (static) change with positioning (dynamic), so they have less value.

2/21 It means that (like Bielsa) he wants multipurpose players for #ATLUTD, those who can change from one position to another quickly. As such, LW/RW are WBs and FBs, FWs are wingers and insiders (CM/LM/RM), HM are CBs, etc.
- Heinze always wants a free player to DEF and ATK.

3/21 #ATLUTD would be much more mechanized than Tata´s team, because Heinze seeks to automate at least triangulations (2-player passing with receptor) and eventually man-to-man markings.
That´s why team transformation is slower and insists on its implementation without changes.

4/21 Heinze applies neurosciences to teach players that a difference between ATK/DEF is rather apparent than real.
- In #ATLUTD, he will need at least 3 players who can be his "coaches" on the pitch.
- Being a Bielsista himself, a 4-backline is AT THE SAME TIME a 3-backline.

5/21 #9 in #ATLUTD won´t have a fixed position, but rather will rotate sideways to prevent 
from coming out from the opposite flank when the opponent turns back.
Key is to keep rivals with the in the smallest possible space.
- Heinze prefers inverted wingers (trendy tbh).

6/21 Heinze wants pressing to be all over the pitch but favoring possession.
As usual, #ATLUTD will have the best intensity, stability and density between lines mostly in its 1st halves, but in the 2nds they tend to leave spaces due to fatigue.
Physical endurance will be a must.

7/21 Something we recently criticize in #ATLUTD is the lack of team iniciative. An organized one, not a messy one.
That´s not gonna happen with Heinze.
He wants his teams to take responsibility of the matches, for better or for worse.
Drills must be reflected on the pitch.

8/21 In the 4-3-3, CM/LM/RMs ("interiores" or insiders in 
) becomes lateral pivots and foremost GOALSCORERS, while in ATK becomes a 3-4-3, so the HM becomes a sweeper or central pivot, free to start from behind.
Tata´s work in #ATLUTD using 3-5-2. Not new.

9/21 Tata used Carmona or Big Red as sweepers.
That´s probably why Heinze could use Almendra for, in #ATLUTD.
A misconception of this tactic is to start buildup from the middle (which is highly risky) and not by the flanks, which allows to suffer goals by direct counters.

10/21 This is not a 3-backline with 3 normal CBs but a tactic known as SALIDA LAVOLPIANA (Lavolpiana Exit).
Word used by Pep Guardiola in 2006, devised by Ricardo La Volpe in
.
For Heinze, it´s key to automate Lavolpianas and counter-Lavolpianas in his team, on its own terms.

11/21 SUBTITLED LAVOLPIANA EXIT BY LA VOLPE
Guardiola uses varied forms of Lavolpianas, but there´s still confusion between a Lavolpiana (ATK buildup from DEF positions) and a 3-4-3 (tactical scheme with a 3-backline). Coaches used them combined in sequences, alone or parallel.

12/21 CRITICS FROM COACH ASAD (YAMIL´S DAD)
"In Vélez there were no brilliant moments but lapses that ranged from very good to terrible. In his 1st year he gave away 20´ per half to dominate 25´. In his 2nd, he gave 35´ per half. Rivals would score 1 or 2, too late to react”.

, too late to react”.
13/21 ASAD CONTINUED:
“He strengthened some players, but it seemed wrong to me that he didn´t change to seek tactical changes. He always repeated the same scheme, no plan B for certain circumstances".

14/21 ASAD ENDED:
"Sometimes he put Almada as #9 and he´s not suited for it, cause he has other skills, he moves in other spaces of the pitch, but he was away so many games.
Our most technical and decisive player, the different one, and no coach leaves that player on the bench”.

15/21 LIMITATIONS FOR VÉLEZ PLAYERS AT TRAINING CAMPS
Heinze is well-known for being very strict and favoring hard training.
As an exception, some players have emotional breakdowns during the process.
That´s why in these cases sport psychologists in #ATLUTD will be needed.

16/21 SOME ARRANGEMENTS:
- Locker rooms closed for FO and journalism during games.
- Buses and dinning rooms only for players.
- Players not allowed to use mobile phones at work.
- For him, a roster must have 18 pro players plus 5 or 6 best kids from the Academy, to train them.

17/21 PERFORMANCE ISSUES
In 2018, Vélez lost in 1st round of Copa Argentina on PKs 3-4 after drawing 1-1 vs. Central Córdoba, a humble team from the B (our 2nd Div).
Heinze was harshly criticized by media, due to PKs, lineup, tactical approach and for arguing with a journalist.

18/21 INITIAL DISCLAIMER
I´m not a journalist and I want to keep it that way.
I mention common concepts to well-known coaches, mostly Bielsistas like Tata, Poch, Berizzo ...and Heinze.
La Volpe is not. He was always critical of Bielsa.
But I'm fan of players, not coaches.

19/21 FINAL DISCLAIMER
In almost everything is already invented.
Differences in playing styles, neurosciences and training philosophies are minimal, even negligible.
Only the marketing changes. Heinze knows.
Hope this helps to understand him.
But players will always decide.
