This is fantastic writing! Football analysis aside, as someone interested in improving my writing, your piece sheds light on proper grammar and sentence structure. I see you have an affinity for the comma after "that", in the middle of sentence, as used in: “The 3-5-2 was a system that, with no reliable wingers available, made sense….” I never knew that was a “thing,” but a google search has opened my eyes. Although, I have seen arguments in favour of getting rid of first and second comma after the “that”.
That aside, the football analysis is very insightful. I particularly like the historical anecdotes and references you use to buttress your point. The Ancelotti one, I must say, sold me.
I take pride in being a football fanatic, but evidently, I have a lot to learn about the tactics and formations.

Good one Sol. Excellent points as to why Kelechi's offerings alone simply will not suffice guaranteeing his relevance at Leicester City football club.
He has to seek a different employer.
You write brilliantly. And you understand the science of football so well.
Very informative.
You are a really good writer solace.
This is quite eye-opening
