Goal:
• Bielsa sees the third man as the modern way to pass forward, because this requires less space in free space and because you can play to a player with an opponent in the back.
• Bielsa also strongly believes in getting behind the last line of the opponent through a surplus and that is why depth is very important to him. This moving in the depth without the ball is also trained here
Organization:
• 6 players
• 5 dummies
• 1 big goal + 1 keeper
Explanation:
• The player with the ball plays the striker
• The striker drops the ball on the third man, who eventually passes the ball through the air behind the defense to a deep-running player
