GONNA BE DOWNING A PINT IN MY 10AM ZOOM MEETING FFS
I watched their games against Chelsea last year and a few posters earlier who called him just another defensive Mendes client are well wide of the mark. Played on the front foot and very inventive attacking football against what we know is a very good Chelsea side under Tuchel.Looking at his results last season, his tactical flexibility is refreshing. Looks like he'll ( to the best of his and his teams ability ) tailor make a formation for specific teams. Porto's run in the CL last year was solid. Eventually losing to the would be champions.

Also this description about how his teams play:
He’s built a fantastic team at Porto using a very fluid 4-4-2 with the fullbacks charging forward and the wingers drifting into central spaces. He likes having the ball (top possession in the league) and wants to move it quickly with short passes to stress opposing defensive structures. Without the ball, he presses with a front five, hoping to force opponents into mistakes, and also uses a very high defensive line.
