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.

Signing up for your newsletter is a no-brainer.

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.
