Welcome to Ponta de Lança substack

Welcome to Ponta de Lança substack - new home of my tactics, squad management, and youth development content; from football history's most iconic sides to today's most interesting tactical innovations.

Fascinated by football ideologies like Brazilian Jogo Bonito, Italian Catenaccio, Dutch Total Football & Spanish Tiki Taka; transcending their respective style of play, becoming an entire 𝙛𝙤𝙤𝙩𝙗𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚 encompassing style of play, great players, iconic teams & club legacies.

I enjoy implementing real-life concepts in Football Manager and creating engaging, simple, and digestible content that blends tactical insight with creative storytelling.
